For Max Payne, the tragedies that took his loved ones years ago are wounds that refuse to heal. No longer a cop, close to washed up and addicted to pain killers, Max takes a job in São Paulo, Brazil, protecting the family of wealthy real estate mogul Rodrigo Branco, in an effort to finally escape his troubled past. But as events spiral out of his control, Max Payne finds himself alone on the streets of an unfamiliar city, desperately searching for the truth and fighting for a way out. Combining cutting edge shooting mechanics with a dark and twisted story, Max Payne 3 is a seamless, highly detailed, cinematic experience from Rockstar Games.

Had fun playing as a drunk and depressed ex-police-detective shooting lots of bad people, while listening to the soundtrack produced by my favorite band.
Also learned a plenty of portuguese slurs

One of the most underrated games ever made by Rockstar. The story can be slightly less compelling than first two games but I enjoyed the story. The combat is so frickin satisfying, some of the best I have ever seen in gaming. The realism is on another level, this game is more realistic than GTA 5. Top notch music and some of the actions scenes are on par with movie action sequences or even better. Rockstar really put a lot of care and money into this game(100 million dollars apparently) and it's sad that the game was a financial disaster. Amazing game.

Max Payne 3 might be the most honest depiction of depression I’ve ever experienced in a video game.
The story and setting aren’t the point; they’re just the backdrop to Max’s internal state. Everything is filtered through his exhaustion and his self-loathing. Many critics took issue with how the game seemingly ignores Max’s character development from Max Payne 2, where he appeared to have moved on from the death of his family. But that criticism misunderstands trauma. Real trauma doesn’t resolve cleanly. You don’t “finish” grieving. You carry it, and sometimes all it takes is a dream, a memory, or a familiar pain to drag you right back into the dark.
Rockstar’s greatest achievement here is turning a bright, sun-soaked Brazilian setting into something that feels just as cold and suffocating as the snow-covered streets of the earlier games.
To Max, protecting the Brancos is an excuse to keep breathing. A reason not to put the gun to himself. If he has someone to protect, he has a purpose.
This game is a character study wrapped in a third-person shooter. Bleak, uncomfortable, and uncompromising.

Best game ever if Rockstar doesn't make a 4 I'll shave my head, drink vodka, and take painkillers then go on a rampage in a favela in Brazil
