Max Payne 3 Airport Hallway Shootout on Classic Difficulty

A gameplay of Max Payne in the hardest difficulty

[@mkiwi980]

When you play the entire trilogy and get to the airport. Words cannot describe how perfect this is. You just need to experience it.

[@tomatoesofdoom]

I think it's because there's finally a slight realization that you're the bad guy here and this character is destined to do this

[@badinfluenceforchildren7777]

@@tomatoesofdoom no.. max finally able to move on he finally can just accept what happened to his family he no longer stuck in the past he finally win against himself and those people you see he killed in this vid is a corrupt police unit that sell human to some organ harvesting organization

[@tomatoesofdoom]

@@badinfluenceforchildren7777 lol max's story is that he doesn't move on. the entire point of the game was that he is so stuck in his Noir detective ways that random drug dealers from Brazil can see how one dimensional he is. they know that max payne will cause countless amounts of destruction as long as a woman is in danger. so when max finally realizes that in this game he doesn't fight against it and instead becomes the biggest destructive force he can be. he is a terrorist through and through at this point but at least he can stop the people who fucked him over personally and are currently fucking over the people he cared about like Pasos's wife and De Silva the cop

[@Ender-bg2hx]

@@tomatoesofdoom I feel it’s more that after finally being able to save someone which felt like it was an eternity after not being able to save his wife and daughter he was sort of reinvigorated and more determined to basically take down the corrupt boss of Brazil and well as you can see he goes ham on the U.F.E. In the airport with a bit of a deathwish

[@sauceyvirg1n910]

As if the story had achieved it's beginning middle end moments. From the moment Michelle and Rose died Max had a long recovery to go through and we helped him achieve it. Him walking off at the end is the conclusion we needed, no more bad guys, just rest.

[@pandersonnike]

I'm still sad we just lost James McCaffrey. I played this game again a few months ago, and it's still a masterpiece in my view. James was a big part of that, and especially during his narration. Over a decade since this game came out, I still remember this mission among many others well.

This scene is so perfect. The song's lyrics sound like it's all the people Max lost pleading with him from beyond the grave to move on and find happiness. After so many years of pain (pun intended) he's earned the right to take a rest and feel something other than misery. This scene feels like Max is fighing to finally move on and find that happiness.

[@vamp5773]

Yeah your right the song was made for the game and its basically maxs dead wife and daughter telling him to give up on them and to move forward in life on his own

[@ell6122]

This scene is weirdly beautiful, despite all the death and violence. It feels like the game was ramping up for this. It was the last burst of adrenaline at the end. That coupled with the theme playing in the background makes this game worth the price alone in my opinion

[@jesseslayton900]

+Ell612 It feels like Max's whole life was leading up to this moment, I don't even think he legitimately plans on stopping Victor, same with Nicole in the skyscraper in the first game, I think he has a death wish and somehow he never dies, much to his own internal suffering.

[@isaacmitchell2527]

+Jesse Slayton I feel the same way. here's where I vent about the whole series. to me max is cursed. every single moment i think he believes he is gpimg to die but doesnt for reasons we dont know. (character speaking. not gameplay) but gameplay has something along with this. its like we are forced to make max suffer by not letting him die. the first time i played tge airport shootout i was in awe. i think it would have been even better if he had memories of his family and the events of the other games. to me I don't think there should be another max Payne game. Max has suffered long enough. for once in his life he is at peace and has moved on. all i have to say

I like how Max is just like an unstoppable one man army destroying most of Rio's elite task force and trained mercenaries, and still nonchalant about the fact that he's probably killed more people than what's humanly possible

[@wrestlingfan4569]

xMsry7 Max total kill counts in this game goes up to 1243 or more. That is freaking insane for a game character that is suppose to be "normal". The only other person that can match up the body count I can think of is Rico Rodriguez from Just Cause.

[@kevintablet743]

Here you must be exaggerating. 1243? Holy fucking shit... I dont remember killing THAT many people in this game

[@nzoocage4084]

[@nacl3470]

In real life, there's this legendary sniper from Finland named Simo Hayha who had at least 505 confirmed kills during the Winter War. Now, the Winter War lasted 3.5 months so this guy was absolutely wild. Probably no one else in history has more kills than him by a long shot (pun not intentional). So theoretically, what Max does is possible.

[@sgtvirus6696]

All this while music plays about both letting go of as holding on to his late wife and child. As he his also torn between letting go of life and holding on to the mission and his sense of justice. You absolutely can't beat that.
