It's amazing how the team at Remedy was able to create such a memorable game with such a small budget. Just goes to show the talent of Sam Lake's writing abilities, the development team, and the voice actors/actresses. Can't wait to see how the remake turns out.

That just Shows money isnt everything. Its the heart and the effort that was put on those games that made them so legendary and likeable. Todays Games lack the effort and the soul todays developer teams and even big ones with large amounts of money can often fail their games (of course not every game)

too bad Thomas Jane didn't play Max Payne in the live-action movie instead of Mark Wahlberg. Thomas' "punisher voice" would be perfect for this character, plus he played the Punisher perfectly so he's the actor for the film of this game.
