Posted By	Discussion Topic: Max Payne Update - Almost done...

Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00	Check it out; Got the news from Mac Gamer: George Broussard, of 3D Realms, has updated his .plan giving an update on the status of Max Payne. Although this is for the PC counterpart, it bodes well for Mac users, as the sooner the PC version gets done, hopefully, the sooner we'll see it. Here's a snippet: * The game is essentially done. It's close to a final release candidate and feature freeze (hopefully later this week). From there it will be bug/compatability fixes only. We're signed off on mouse pads, boxes and everything except the manual (which should be done Friday/ Saturday). At that point we just play test and wait on the gold CD. One area of foucs now is tweaking the harder skill levels that unlock after you beat the game, including New York Minute. In NYM, you start with time on a clock and it counts down. Every time you kill a guy you get more time. If the timer hits zero you die. It's a really, really fun way to play the game after beating it the first time. * Yes, there will be a demo. I'd imagine it will be out a couple of weeks after Max hits store shelves. * Gathering of Developers should announce a street date for Max soon. It's still "when it's done", but as I said above, it's basically done except for bugs and that's the only thing that can hold it back. We're fairly confident we'll hit very close to the street date due to how stable the game has been for the last month. *Max Payne is being brought over by MacSoft. There has been no release date set for the Mac version, but hopefully we'll hear something by MWNY. I desperately need something new to play: Oni rocked but it was too quick. Wish they added multi-player to it. My head hurts. I'm a full-time pistol-packin' skull-crackin' Windows-dissin' baby-kissin' Mac user.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01	This game is going to kick some serious ass. I like the idea of being able to play with and use "bullet-time" during the game. I can see this game eating up a LOT of me free time :) "The mind is like a parachute - it works best when it is open..." Classes for Enhancing your Board Experience and Stamina are now in Session!

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01	I almost picked it up today ($45 at an EB in my local mall - kind of high, but this game is worth it), but I passed - I'm gonna wait until this weekend, and see if I can score a nice GF3 card at a local comp show first - if I do, I plan on getting the game as well.
