The pic actually looks as though it could be Max Payne from the 2nd game plus a few years....unlike the rather unsettling jump between game 1 and 2 where the two Max's bore no resemblance....

I wonder who the real-life model is this time??

Oh, and the fact that the preliminary-teaser-single-faceshot-artwork looks as though it's from GTA means absolutely nothing.

I love it how people jump to conclusions that it's now "GTA-Engine Max"- seriously.

You gotta remember that it's Rockstar themselves making the game this time around, so you think they might actually use their own concept artists for the promo work??

Not to say it ISN'T using the RAGE engine(as it probably is), but there's really no concrete evidence one way or another....and if it is, I'm sure the gameplay mechanics will NOT reek of Max-Payne-on-a-GTA-Engine; every individual RAGE engine game so far has had a unique feel that suited the game it was being used for.

I'm not worried.
