What Do You Want The Storyline To Be For MP3?
What do you want the storyline to be for Max Payne 3? I think they should bring Mona back, but I just hope it doesn't suck. What do you guys think.

Mona doesn't die in the alternate ending, which you get when you beat the highest difficulty setting. I haven't beaten it, but I don't think I really care anymore. But they'll bring her back, is my point.

Even if the game sucks, I want to see the plot.

I think that there will have to be a new enemy revealed. All the enemies are dead now, aren't they? Woden, *sniff* Vinnie, Vlad, Horne- nobody is left!

I just think they should make a new graphics engine and release it for $50 and let the modders make the story.

I think you mean to say "Mona doesn't die in the bad, crappy ending that was included just so whoever writes MP3 has more options available to continue the story."

No, I meant "Mona doesn't die in the alternate ending, which I haven't seen and thus don't know the crappy-ness of."

I'm still betting that Vinnie's alive.
And maybe the next story will be about how Max find out Vinnie has Sadie in his claws, and the game ends with Sadie shooting Max, thus ending his misery

Re: What Do You Want The Storyline To Be For MP3?
Maybe Mona will come back because she just got shot in the back instead of the head again :P But really, everyone is dead. I don't even think there should be a MP3 *DONT KILL ME* MP2 ends with Max having all his past solved and all so..... Doesn't that end Max's life story? He just moves on now?

Going in a natural direction from "Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne"...

Max Payne 3: The End of Max Payne. I think it could work really well as the third of a trilogy, so to speak.

Nope, they already plotted that that is the plot for Max Payne 16. Max has to live through the next 13 games... so, he is stranded in an alternate cocaine-binge-induced universe and has to fight the Incredible Hulk and Batman while sayng Princess Zelda from Tommy Vercetti and Mona Saxophone?

Sounds good!

Personally, story-wise, I don't even think there should have been a Max Payne 2.

*dodges flame*

The plot was perfect at the end of the first. He realized that he could never bring his loved ones back, and that killing their...em...killers didn't do anything but make matters worse. I think they should have made the game into another universe. Though the game was fun, the story was better at the end of the first.

MAX PAYNE 3 - TOO COOL FOR YOU

Oh no! Max Payne is trapped in a world where his enemies do not get defeated by gunshots only. The only way to kill em is to be as cool as possible during gunfights, doing flips and wallruns. The cooler he is, the more effectively he kills enemies.

*dreams*

Re: What Do You Want The Storyline To Be For MP3?
Just had an idea.

Max Payne becomes a dentist. When he is giving a filling to a mob boss, who doesn't know Dr Payne()'s legacy. He purposefully cuts the mob boss's tongue off, and the mafia man flees, cursing Payne's name and swearing vengeance as much as he could without a tongune.

The mob boss then sends every mobster left in NY after Max, dearest of all our friends. Max has to use a completely new arsenal of dentist-based weapons to take down his foes (and kill their cavities while he's at it), such as a gigantic toothbrush that shoots miniature toothpaste packets instead of bullets, a gigantic drill that spins faster every time it hits an enemy in the mouth, and a tooth drill that sucks up teeth from your enemies- both living and dead- and fires them from your Tooth Blaster Rifle instead of bullets.

It will feature many revolutionary ideas, such as Toothache time- essentially bullet-time except it turns his enemies into gigantic teeth, making it easier for him to see and attack them- and Toothpaste painkillers, a plot focused on dentist-themed puns and jokes, and a full license to ToothEd 3.0. It will feature Pelvik, the new physics engine that treats all objects as a small tooth in a tube of toothpaste.

Coming to a PC, X-Box Next, PS3, Revolution, DS, PSP, and Phantom near you... Fall 2010.

Re: What Do You Want The Storyline To Be For MP3?
in MP3 i'm pretty sure that max will be fighting the last of the drug lords alongside Jim Bravura who didn't really die in MP2. you can see that this is true by the tv news broadcast that can be seen on the last level, that old familiar feeling. view the tv in the room right before you ride that elevator up to woden's bedroom. it'll foreshadow the plot from MP3.

Max Payne 3 : A crappy game
Some person Max knows or doesn't know does something max doesn't like. Thus ensues a 10 hour game where ultimately the bad guy is defeated, along with several hundred goons, and a few friends of Max's die conveniently, such as right before they tell him whats really going on.

Toss in some filler, bullet time, some dead woman that Max misses and justifies all his killing through, some crappy dialogue, voila.

Re: What Do You Want The Storyline To Be For MP3?
Ok i agree and disagree with the statement that there shouldn't have been a Max Payne 2.

I agree with it because the story was not presented in a manor in which it made it classic.


I disagree because we all knew mona was going to mess with his life again. I mean you know he loved her. Secondly there had to be a second game to show their love in more detail and show us how Max moved on with his life (or didn't move on).

The third max is gonna bring mona back.... and they are both going to die in a balze of glory. Its going to have a new graphics engine. It will be either a hit classic or a bomb no where in between

I thought the killers just went after them because Max was doing so much work fighting V? Maybe I should buy and complete the first game before trying to analyze the story.
