Do it! The story and writing is still great and the gameplay holds up surprisingly well for such an old game (not that it will feel modern, but it’s not a chore to play).

Just checked my steam library, I have all three games. 2001, 2003, and 2012.
I still remember seeing the demo on a pcgamer demo disc, back when coconut monkey was still a thing. I remember thinking that the game seemed fun, but probably relied on the matrix mechanic too much. And have wanted to play it, but haven’t been strongly driven to for many years now.
Maybe it’s time.

Man, old paper magazine PC Gamer… Strong nostalgia overload. Getting a copy was always the highlight of the month, that era of like 1995-2009 was really the golden age of PC gaming.
It definitely is time for Max Payne! Well, unless you want to wait for the RTC Remix mod. And it’s the first step into the wonderful Remedyverse too, culminating in the fantastic Alan Wake 2!
Both MP 1&2 are honestly amazing, and they are very short games too so not really a huge commitment compared to some modern titles. The comic book style slideshow used instead of cutscenes was also ingenious as it has let the game age incredibly gracefully.
