Just placed 3rd on their team, doing better than a lot of the folks on dev accounts.

I've been out of the loop a couple of days damn work
What's the situation about gangs ? Are we keeping them separated by platform or are we all going in the same one ?
Thanks !
Gangs are all cross-platform so it doesnt matter. We'll all be together regardless.

Why is anyone surprised at the Max figure? Collector's Edition figures are almost always awful, and I have no idea why some people were saying that figure was awesome when it was first revealed. All it is, is a boring pose of Max Payne walking slightly.
When I saw that, I had the biggest grin on my face. I hope that there are more little things like that in the game.

Figure's awful and now THIS. Why can no publisher resist selling the DLC from the Special Edition at some point in the near future? There is no point to any of these CEs/Special Editions.

At least I can feel a little solace in knowing it really is a limited edition item. Remember, they stop taking preorders this past April.
Worse case scenario, I leave it in the box, no biggy.

I didn't buy the CE for Uncharted 3 cause the statue didn't look that good. The ad for the MP3 CE made it look pretty good. Now I've already pre-ordered it and I'm getting it no matter what. Cause it's Max Payne.
Hm... I really am considering repainting it. Might end up looking better that way.

As long as you realize (and don't mind) that doing that will completley diminish its monetary value (whatever it may end up being) =P

it's a bundle of stuff. frankly i'd be annoyed if any truly limted edition (as this was) had ingame content that those of us who missed out on getting the limited edition wouldn't be able to get down the line.

So I finally got some 8 player FFA deathmatch games in... pretty disappointed. The spawns are fucking awful on the small maps, I spawned in front of or had people spawn behind me countless times, and it seems the CoD crowd is getting their hands on the game now and playing the game the CoD way of finding a spot to camp in for the entire round with an AR. -_-
Argh.
Guess I'll stick to the other game modes.

Who the fuck is in charge with these "statues"? Uncharted/Infamous ones were also terrible in terms of the face.
=(
You're probably anxious to just start playing, but have you tried using the soundtrack download included? Are you able to get that yet?Just seatbelted them? Isn't that adorable.

Wat. They only appear for enemies or even allies if they're already in view to begin with. Not exactly a new thing in multiplayer games.

Probably just one bad picture. Uncharted and Infamous faces didnt feel like statues at all in my opinion.
Figures/Statues whatever, they just look terrible IMO.
Batman from AA/DCUO and Skyrim are the only ones worth having out in the open.
Tell me about it man.
Been playing the NG+ (basically hard mode, but with the gadgets unlocked) on Arkham City and i was starting to hate those.
At least i'm getting better at the game, eh.

You know the fun thing about these statues?
Nowadays they use zbrush to make maps and stuff for texturing, and also making a CGI quality version of the character. I've seen it used with an exporter for 3d print. Make a mold out of the 3d print and you can get pretty much a 1:1 copy of the true character...
Yet they give us... this.ç
Example:
Trivia: done by the same company of the Drake sculpt. :[

Oops, i thought you made the in-game models, sorry
But i see now that you are talking about the included statues in the Limited Editions. I thought that the Max Payne picture above here was an in-game shot hehe.NoizyChild

The standard DM is pretty fun, but I've noticed there are issues with spawn points sometimes.
by view you mean even corner of the screen? this takes away so much skill factor.

Can you elaborate? Nice avatar btw.
Also holy shit at the Destructoid review. Nicely done.
Better still, the writing of Max has been elevated. Gone are the overwrought metaphors in Sam Lake's version of the character; Max doesn't once try to compare telephone lines to a human circulatory system or any such pretentious crap. He's still clever and just as full of pathos as ever, but without giving the impression that his words are forced or disingenuous. He's such a joy to listen to that players will likely be scouring environments in search of more pearls of wisdom, and those who do will be amply rewarded for their diligence.
Shots fired and well put.
They're bonus objectives that once obtained, award XP for your online profile (think kill X number of enemies, do X number of headshots, etc.). I believe there's an achievement/trophy for completing all of the ones pertaining to the story modes.

Oh snap, shots fired for real. It's just a matter of opinion though if you enjoy the more over-the-top near dry parody metaphors, or this more grounded version of Max's narration.
I'm not going to complain either way as I'm just happy to have another real character in a shooter not named Nathan Drake, so it's all good with me.

Honestly, that's been my opinion from everything I've seen so far. But some people just love Sam Lake's style.

Yup, a gold troph for getting them all. So sweet. Cheevos within cheevos.
Some games have handled that well (all of the achievements in Rock Band 3, for example), but achievements doled out for doing 50-some-odd other achievements are frankly a bit crap.
No offense to our friends on the PS3, of course.
