As Rockstar gear up their mojo leading up to the release of Max Payne 3 in a couple of months, they’ve dropped another video to enjoy, this time looking at the cinematics of their upcoming title. “Visual Effects and Cinematics” focuses on the efforts to which Rockstar Studios has gone to bring a unique and powerfully cinematic presentation style to the fluid and sophisticated gunplay of Max Payne 3. The video highlights the real time motion-comic panel generator that updates the graphic novel style cutscenes made famous by the original games, as well as a series of innovations that move the game seamlessly from cutscene to gunplay and from one chapter to the next, putting greater emphasis on the moment-to-moment shooting action, and keeping the player locked into Max’s dark and troubled narrative.
