Max Payne
I love this game. I mean it.
I love the way Max talks, I love the way his voice sounds. He talks metaphorically and in similes. It's really beautiful. Very beautiful.
And to top it off, the game is narrated at times in a comic book-format way. And that's really beautiful as well. It makes the game feel even more grittily great and interesting.
Plus there's bullet time. A matrix-style slow-mo superpower that Max can use at any time in the game. An hourglass bar shows how much you have, and you get more back by killing enemies. It's great watching yourself shoot and kill bad guys as Max flies in slow motion. It's like watching a beautiful art picture be made.
Plus, on top of this, the game is decently long--I still haven't beaten it after playing for about 10 or so hours. And also there's many other difficulty levels to play, adding some replayability.
I would show you some shots of the comic-style narration, but I can't find any.
Oh, and Max Payne 2. I cannot wait for this game...I hope I get my job so I can buy it...
