Max Payne: Fighting The War

Crime level raised sky-high in New York. It's an all-out war on the streets now. The forces are equal and no one can gain the upper hand. The police has the sharpest tactical minds and many operatives, but they lack that one real, uh... "problem solver", who will give them the edge they need. Who're they gonna call? City's best gunslinger, the one and only, Max Payne.

Max doesn't jump into the main fight. Instead, he goes through bandit hideout in the nearby warehouse. Exchange of Valkyr and money is going to be interrupted.

The fights are challenging and so are the puzzles. Search for switches is required, and at 8:05 Max will have to figure out how to blow up a door - excellent use of the game's physics. At 10:18 there's a cool optional jumping puzzle to reach secret molotov.

Max has to reach the sewers, but the key to unlock them is far from the door. On the way back we'll have to fight reinforcements and the path will be blocked by a car (15:43), forcing Max to go through the porch instead - an excellent detail.

In the end, the story will be better than expectations. We thought Max was just flanking the bandits, but he had a sly plan to attack them in a way that they won't know what hit them. He plants a bomb in the sewers, and the ground explodes right under their feet!

Spectacular cutscenes, desperate firefights and impressive locations make this short campaign a great addition to Max Payne universe. Highly recommended. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ubgc6dN77s
