One word "Wow".  This game is uinique in so many aspects I don't even think I can list them all.  First off the game overall is one of the best shooters I have ever played.  The reason for this is because the story and action are so perfectly intertwined with one another that the game comes off as almost flawless.  Remedy decided to take the shooter genre to new hights by adding inovating gameplay, including the awesome Matrix Style slow mo.  The graphics and sound of Max Payne are amazing.  Its really cool how they take peoples faces and litterally put them onto the characters.  With so much action, style, and  an interesting story Max Payne is definetly a game that NO SHOOTER FAN should miss.
