Above: The first Payne made signature use of comics for its cutscenes, with original writer Lake playing the detective
Remedy’s Sam Lake and Rockstar’s Dan Houser will both work on the titles: Lake was responsible for scripting Paynes 1 and 2 (and, notoriously, for providing Max’s signature lemon-munching scowl in the first game) while Rockstar co-founder Houser is Max Payne 3’s lead writer. Spanish artist Fernando Blanco, known for his work on comics including Army of Darkness and Manhunter, will illustrate, with covers by Greg Horn.
The first Max Payne comic, After the Fall, is set for a free digital launch on the Rockstar (opens in new tab) and Max Payne 3 (opens in new tab) websites in the next few weeks, with the third game itself still set for a mid-May launch. We explored the game’s multiplayer modes in our most recent Max Payne 3 preview (opens in new tab).

]]>OK, so, this one covers some of the same ground as the last D&T video, but it’s also one of the prettier looks at the game we’ve had yet; as you’re nodding to its explanations of first-person-style targeting, enemy AI and carefully balanced firearm management, take a moment to appreciate Max’s realistic range of movement, his destructible surroundings and the way his enemies spasm and jerk as bullet-time projectiles rip through them. This is clearly shaping up to be more than a standard run-and-cover shooter, and it’s got us more fired up than ever for the game’s release this May.

It’s not uncommon to pick up an old game and be amazed by how poorly it holds up. It can also be crushing to find that the games you have such fond memories of… sort of suck nowadays. This was our fear when it came to Grand Theft Auto III, a game that’s celebrating its 10th birthday today, on Oct. 22, 2011. In order to make sure it still plays as well as we remember, Hollander Cooper, Henry Gilbert, Mikel Reparaz, and Charlie Barratt blew the dust off an old copy of the game, threw it in, and started doing some missions.
“Started” being the key word….
We actually ended up killing cops and having sex with prostitutes. We wanted, so badly, to just play the game as it was meant to be played, but after like four minutes we started typing in codes and slaughtering people. Happy birthday, Grand Theft Auto III!

Today marks the 10th anniversary of Grand Theft Auto III. To celebrate the decade of open-world gaming GTA III gave us, Rockstar’s giving us one of its just-announced, limited-edition, super-swank Claude Speed action figures (which Rockstar sells for $149.99) so that we can give it to one lucky reader. Made by Sideshow Collectibles and coming complete with two outfits, eight weapons and nearly 30 points of articulation, Claude makes for an impressive man-doll, but he’s limited to a set of 1,500. One of those 1,500 could be yours.

Above: Landon Ricketts, soon available for your playing pleasure dead or alive
The pack will be available on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network in September and unlocks characters including fan favorite Landon Ricketts, previously only available for play in undead form. On that note, Rockstar has also announced that under considerable fan pressure, it’ll be restoring the original settings to the Undead Overrun mode via an update during the lead up to the new pack. The mode’s boundaries and time-penalties were tightened in an earlier update which met with widespread dissatisfaction – so before declaring an end to RDR support, the original mode will be restored. And let that be a lesson to you: whenever anyone changes something you like, you should definitely complain about it! Looking forward to getting into the “Myths and Mavericks” pack?
