First Max Payne 3 screenshots reveal dirtiest t-shirt ever photo

Now we finally get to see what Max looks like after all these years. He's doing the filthy wifebeater thing now, I guess. Rockstar Vancouver has said that they've dropped a retired police officer into a violent, corrupt world in their latest, scheduled to hit the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC this Winter. While we can't attest to how it feels yet, we can say that it looks pretty good judging by these new screenshots.

The July 2009 issue of Game Informer has the scoop on Max Payne 3's details, straight from Rob Nelson, MP3's Art Director, and Jeronimo Barrera, VP of development. Game Informer says that the game looks and feels "remarkably realistic, " and that "the attention to detail is remarkable." Remarkable, folks! 

From the 2009 issue:

If you expected a by-the-numbers sequel, prepare to be surprised. The third chapter of the Max Payne saga takes our hero places that he's never gone before, while at the same time keeping an eye towards maintaining and improving the stylish gunplay that made his reputation.
In the screens below, check out the older, rougher looking Max. Anyone out there good with locations? Where does it look like Max is located?

At this point in it's early stages, I'm a little skeptical of the look, but I don't know.....IT'S ROCKSTAR. I'm sure the game will be fine.

I cannot believe the pedantry on this thread.

It looks awesome, and as a few have said, Rockstar are one of the few devs you can count on to get this right...

I prefer the Bruce Willis look to the Jonny Knoxville look - and I freaking LOVED the first two Max Paynes...

Well they did remedy that in the second game. What was kinda neat though is that Max in the original game was modeled off the game's writer.

Hey, if he is in São Paulo why there is a criminal wearing a Flamengo shirt?

Noir is annoying. It is gone. Awesome.

Rockstar Vancouver made The Warriors game. Awesome.

Euphoria + RAGE engine + Bullet Time + Sao Paulo = Awesome again

What is the problem here?

*Yawn* next use images so that my degenerated brain can understand your babbling.

What the fuck did they do to Max?

Hate it.

Where's the trenchcoat? Where is the dark and snowy city?
They took his awesome film noir style and made it into just another generic grizzled anti hero.

How the hell did "Hey! Let's take all the cool style that sets Max Payne apart and throw it in the bin, and make the new game look like some dirty Army of Two ripoff!" seem like a good idea to these people?

São Paulo is just like that, man. The favelas are not so different from Rio.

Trust me, I live just 70Km (or 51 miles) from São Paulo.

..and just informing other people, São Paulo is not a tropical location, there's no beach there, and no, it's not even near from Amazonas. And SP is a very "grey place", it's the biggest city in the country and has a lot of place that fits the noir style of Max Payne, now i'm just waiting for the Rockstar guys to notice. ^^

I'm looking forward for this game! =D
