Rockstar Releases Max Payne 3 ‘Design and Technology’ Vid

Rockstar proves that their design philosophy for the sequel is more detailed than, "What if Max is bald and has a beard?"

Rockstar today released the first in a new line of Max Payne 3 videos called the “Design and Technology” series. The narration is a bit on the dry side, but the footage itself is impressive. The four minute clip focuses on the aiming and movement mechanics, enemy AI, and character animations. Max’s next game is scheduled to release this coming March.
