My first ever and favorite video game; I have memorized the lines in my heart.
-The gameplay the probably the number one thing that comes to the mind; it is breathtaking. Not the first ever game to introduce "bullet time", but definitely the first one that mastered it.
-The story is fantastic as well. Starting as an American dream, "But dreams have a nasty habit of going bad when you're not looking."
-The atmosphere is in the top three for me alongside "The Witcher 1" and "Machinarium" . The Noir York is absolutely gorgeous and perfect for the tone of the game; the snow, the darkness, the scum. The music is another thing mastered by Remedy entertainment; it's really beautiful and use you ears as small gateway to easily get into your heart.
-Graphics are not great, but they are good. Considering the time the game was released, they are not outdated at all.
-The comic book art style is absolutely amazing. They are so unique and enjoyable to look at. I am glad that whoever came up with it, did actually come up with this idea.
I have played this game for god knows how many times; and I still do play it. Every summer, the first two games I play are Max Payne 1 and 2; it has became like a ritual I have performed for a few years .
