Should Next Max Payne Game Be A Sequel, Prequel Or A Reboot?

The Max Payne series was one of the best third person shooter ever. It charmed the payers with its satisfying, rewarding and flawless gameplay back in 2001 on PlayStation 2. The series seemed to have concluded in 2003 with Max Payne 2, but out of the blue in 2012, it returned with Max Payne 3. After full 9 years, Rockstar came out with Max Payne 3 and awed the gamers. This got me thinking; should the next Max Payne game be a Sequel, Prequel or a Reboot? It is worth noting that there is not even a rumour, forget about the official word, about the development of the next Max Payne game. It is plausible that Rockstar has decided to another decade-long break from the series and come out with a Max Payne 4 in the future. But again, that seems far-fetched and uncalled for.

Quantum Break Review: Remedial Masterpiece

Quantum Break is an excellent game. Yeah, I didn’t want to drag that out. If you’re a PC or an Xbox One owner, this is one of the few games that you absolutely must play. It’s one of those rare times I have felt that any happiness in owning an Xbox One, because no, Ori And The Blind Forest was not enough. Though it’s also clear that the game is held back visually, and technically on the Xbox One, but more on that later. The game is refreshing, visually impressive, has a great narrative, and plays fantastically. It’s not without its issues, but none of them keep Remedy’s time-altering-narrative-driven-tv-show-included-filled with-Max-Payne-and-Alan-Wake-references-shooter a blast to play. (Quantum Break is the Max Payne for this generation of Video Games)...
