Max Payne 3's Hardcore Achievement is SUPER Unfair 

Hit that sub button and ring that bell. Morgan put out an amazing video. This was great to watch while I wait on AC6 to download. Have an awesome day.

‘No way, that is so unfortunate’ is the most measured and humble reaction to a run reset

I love achievement hunting, but sometimes I see achievements like this and I have unbelievable respect for someone like yourself for getting it. Let alone attempting it more than once. I could never. My patience would be lost probably on my first death. So you sir are an absolute Chad for that alone. Edit: I just noticed it was only 10G. What an insult to all those injuries lol

„That is so unfortunate.“ You unlocked the Magnificent Composure achievement there. Hats off.

Him: "F*ck you, Max Payne! 🖕" Me: "R.I.P. James Perry McCaffrey. 😢"

Man I love MP3, but even on normal its pretty hard. Mad respect for your achievments. Greetings from Germany

this game fuckin crunched me up on Normal difficulty as an oldschool fan, props to you for your patience

"we'll just see how this shit cranks" is my new life motto

My favorite part of this channel is not that you hunt achievements, but when you try to play games on HARDCORE difficulty! It reqs some STEEL balls. And ofc the fact that you explain everything that happens in the story :) Mad respect!

Not even 20 seconds in and I'm asking: HOW THE HELL ARE YOU STILL ALIVE AFTER THAT?!?

My first death on this run was shooting Fabina in the face during the boat jump at the end of chapter 5 😅

Bruh you did this on a gamepad holy shit, Good job, you achievement channels are insanely inspirational and informative. Much better than a long play I'm currently grinding Score Attack and that shit is making my chest hairy.

Congrats on getting the achievement, you played well and fought hard. I remember when i did this challenge but on PC. Which is easier with aiming but it tends to crash a lot. I have played Max Payne 3 so many times that i began to discover many exploits, spawn manipulation and shortcuts. One that could have been more useful for you is the rapid fire exploit. Max doesn't have any reload animations while shoot dodging so you can empty a magazine and fill it mid jump. But thats not all. While in a shoot dodge you shoot slower, right? But if you reload it resets that sort of cool down. Meaning you can shoot one shot reload and shoot again and if you are fast enough you can pump out a insane amout of lead. Very good for armored enemies but you deplete your ammo faster. Sort of a risk vs reward exploit.

This was my favorite video yet! You deserve at least 100k views on this video. Its only a matter of time before this channel blows up 🔥

This and the Wolfenstein 2 videos are both awesome! Keep up the great work, subbed!

Crazy you go through all that suffering for only 10G 😂Really enjoyed the vid man, keep it up homie!

So basically Rockstar releases an unfinished game (again) and then they don’t fix it and you have to suffer because of their incompetence. I feel you

It is ten-thousand times worse when you're doing attempting something challenging and you don't succeed not even because YOU failed, but the GAME did. Mad props for this Achievement!

You’ve inspired me to attempt this run myself, my love for this game shall carry myself

Passo's isn't an ex cop. He at least didn't even know Max. During the yacht mission you go to Passo's room and spot a post it note with Max's name on it and where he lives. The information he was given by Victor, presumably. Also, De Silva said to Max after Max said we knew each other at the academy, "Did you really?" Max was so drunk and fucked up during the whole thing that he couldn't even tell people were head hunting him to be a fall guy. Just a few details most players miss is all. It's amazing how many people think that Passo's knew Max. He didn't.

Outstanding work, another great permadeath achievement added to your collection! Very nice vids!

My Proudest Hardest Trophy/Platinum I Earned was The Evil Within (Pure Evil, Platinum) all because of the Akumu Difficulty (You Asked for it , Gold) where Every Enemy No Matter How Big or Small they Are Instantly Kills You In One Hit and Less Ammo

Hardcore new york minute was one of those challenges that took me almost a third of my play hours in this game. Glad I'm never doing that again.

Instant Like for that RPG to the face, I've never seen that being a possibility in that part of the game.

i remember that grenade launcher section in near the end destroying a day or two of of my life.

What a game, Huge congrats on this!

Holy shit, this game has ACTUAL gameplay and not just cutscenes?? Never would have guessed.

lmao no way - respect how much time you put into this. Tried this once, got to the football stadium - killed by the sniper - never again. 15:23 - felt this hard. When that happens I dive straight away haha

Another underrated channel. Wayyyy underrated.

Nice luck being able to do this with only few attempts, and nice skills being able to do this at all. I struggled a lot more, and gone through quite a few attempts that ended with a bug or game crash, these are the most frustrating, 'cause it's not even your fault, the game was just having a bad day. Anyway, nice video as well.

4:45 to be fair that was kind of self defence. Those idiot gangsters were waving guns around and threatening people in addition to smacking the woman. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to shoot someone simply for pointing a gun at you and/or other innocent people.

20:57 Made a smile on my face .. what an awesome job. Especially with all the glitches man that';s annoying.

I loved this game but one of the best moments in gaming is when you make it to the airport lobby and Tears from HEALTH kicks in.

One of the most challenging achievements, for sure. I grinded the hell out of MP3 and knew it by heart, yet, the random glitch or insta-death scenario were the bane of my existance for that achievement. PS: Max can swim - but as some cutscenes imply, falling in the water with armed goons around you kinda means you're dead.

5:54 I encountered that glitch on the final level of hardcore. I got into last stand and I freaked out because I almost missed that window to kill the shooter. Luckily I hit it and got back up to finish the run as my first time doing it. This game was not built to speedrun😭 Congrats bro! This is no little feat!

Look, I love Max Payne, i would've tried to get this achievement myself. But 1h30m of cutscenes is tough man

I played it back when it released, and didn't knew you could disable the laser aim until like my 3rd playthrough

16:45 The deagle giveth, the deagle taketh away

Always look forward to these new videos, I hope you blow the fuck up with subscribers man

Attempted to go for this achievement as a completionist back in 2013. Furthest I got at the time was the 2nd flasback sequence where I got one shot taking cover by a grenade launcher. Eventually moved on to other games but even to this day I still have my copy for 360 and intend to get around to getting this done. Just finding the free time to relearn the entire game again, especially with such a constant building backlog. This achievement was no joke.

Great job. I played MP3 for the first time last year. Always wanted it when I was younger but didn’t have the money. I died so many times just on normal. So super props to you!

13:46. So I finished this today, got to the hotel twice . First time killed myself with the Grenade launcher. Seeing you recommend and use it is giving me ptsd.

From a fellow achievement hunter, good work! Very entertaining. Your channel is going to blow up.

Awesome achievement dude! Good editing also. Gratz!

I'm pretty sure I had this achievement from back in the day. Great game, I really loved the gunplay in it. The multiplayer was really good too, unfortunately I was quite late to it (most people had moved on to GTAV) and couldn't get all achievements.

It is, my game also crashed if I paused it for too long, so I couldn't take brakes. Finished it after like 10th try, took about 2.5 hours, but I was really proud of it

Edits in this were incredible and loved the humor as always. So stoked every time I see a new video of yours come out! Keep em coming!

The foreshadowing in this was incredible.

This brings back memories... I managed to die to every QTE, the UFE APC, the second gatling gun guy... and a million bugs that aren't in the main game. I never finished it 😢

My proudest achievement is in max Payne 3 and it’s a license to kill which you get by unlocking all the golden gun parts and I did this on my pc and on my Xbox and it took 3 days of grinding

only 10 gamerscore for that is absolutely INSANE. G fuckin G my friend.

It's a shame the multiplayer achievements are unobtainable but still looks like a great game to check out.

God bless you my dude. What a delight you are 😊

This video was hilarious morgan I subbed uour channel should be bigger and this video should have more views

here is a fun challenge! beat the game again in this dificulty and every time you take pain killers in the game, you take them in real life!

Max Payne, the man with built in OSHA approved safety goggles

What a fun ride! Keep it up man!

Love your content man. Youll go somewhere with this for certain!

My favorite 100% was test drive unlimited. The map was modeled after a real-life Hawaiian island. In an era where not every piece of a game is uploaded to RU-vid i watched a real life drive of trail instead. I was mind blown it worked.

One time, I got to the sequence shown in the start of the video, and Max clipped through the floor somehow. He clipped and fell into the void.

My man getting nostalgic with the 3rd game, I'm getting nostalgic with the 1st... old af

My proudest achievement is the Auld Lang Syne trophy in Bioshock Infinite, I initially went in as a joke thinking I’d get decimated in the first enemy encounter but it was surprisingly easy, that’s when I realised I can do it. The worst part was the good time club level, it took me THREE DAYS to get past, there were times where I’d get frustrated and take a few hours off the game to play MGS1. I did it within a week after the game launched, I was so happy and that got me fired up for any challenge just don’t get me started on FFXIV’s Feast of Famine quest😅 I also got the Scavenger Hunt trophy on the same run, it is very easy to get. I relied on scavenging for stuff in levels and accessing secret rooms for extra goodies.

I completed it once years ago But before successing I literally lost to the plane chase at the end ! Didn't know it wasn't even possible !😢

I've finished this thing a couple of days ago. Took me 15 tries. 🤣 And the 14th run was the most frustrating, cause that time I've died in the luggage area in the beginning of the final chapter.

dafuq, all that with a gamepad??? can't even navigate with that, but a shooter where you have to precisely aim? How is that possible?

Quick answer: NO!, the game gets stuck in a cursed infinite loading screen issue... happened to me on PC and PS3

11:03 My proudest achivement is Queen Hatschepsut in Serious Sam 3 BFE where you need to best the final level, on the hardest difficulty (Serious) without dying or loading a save. It is not as impressive as your perma death runs since the level is only an estimated 80 minutes long but the 1500 enemies + Final bossfight still made this challenging for me.

Once you know the enemy layout of each of the levels its not too hard.I asked Rockstar support about the difficulty level of New York Minute Hardcore,and they said it has the Medium difficulty level.

your slowly becoming my favorite youtuber lmao

Glad I found your channel love the video !! My rarest platinum until now is Cod vangaurd

Morgan’s back in town. Can’t wait for crysis 3 bro.

@15:15….”BRUH”….. I really like the time concept of this mode .. can’t think of any other game that does it off the top of my head ?

My proudest achievement in gaming? 100 percenting the achievement list on RE3Remake. Very proud as well that I have 3 left to go in RE2 REmake. Got em, Lore explorer, and hell of a sheriff and the tofu runs left to do.

Doing this on controller is crazy, good stuff man

Took me dozens of attempts. Not sure what version you played, but this was a 2-disc long physical copy, swapping when you get to the office level. I started making a daily journal of my failed attempts on TA to keep my sanity. So many bugs. Got to the final sequence and had to take a breather because my shots kept missing the plane. Cried from the shock* of almost choking and finally finishing it.

all gas no breaks, cranks... i think we have a bilmuri listener here

14:11 the transition lol😂

That opening rocket booped you real good

Great video man! I loved it, all your vids are amazing!

This game mode was hell, still a banger

There are some cutscenes you can skip, but at a certain point my game would stop loading; I read online that if you don't skip them this error won't happen I did this on my other channel, and I wrote down tips ( FycOnvFMM6k , I imagine copy pasting the tips here is way too long) 6:30 The Desert Eagle penetrated a goon and killed Fabiana, for me EDIT: 16:40 Oh no. 19:10 You also start that with the Glock, which I prefer

Well freaking done ! That took a lot of endurance

“Where did the bullets go???” So real

What an entraining video, I love this game and little glitches make it very hard

I've never played Max Payne 3 before, nor am I an avid achievement hunter, but that frustration was so familiar. See, my brother and I had a specific term for sequences present in all Rockstar games - we referred to them simply as 'Rockstar Moments'. This was kind of a catch-all term for extremely frustrating points you could find in pretty much all of their games. Whether they were ridiculous difficulty spikes in otherwise easy games (PS2 era GTA games were great at this); vehicle/escort sections that sucked because of janky, undercooked mechanics; arbitrary but punishing time constraints; random, mission-ending glitches; poorly placed save points, or really anything else that made you go "that's some bullshit." The effect of the Rockstar Moment is always the same and it can be observed clearly in the video. For the first few seconds you are in disbelief as you get the lingering feeling that the developer broke an implied level of trust between you and them, then you grow frustrated and wonder why you're even playing this piece of junk in the first place, but the next day you realize you must soldier on because conquering this game is the only thing that'll make the nightmares stop. Nearly every death you suffered was a certified Rockstar Moment. So, mad respect.

Best platinum trophy I ever got was for Rainworld. Such a good game.

The devs from Max Payne 3 thought: " GTAI V is nice but nobody actually needed cover or struggled in that game. Lets change that" :) Imagine if that game had randomized enemiy spawns or even more difficultie. After that Achievement you truly feel max pain :) I tried to replay this game last year and also encountert some game- breaking bugs, thankfully I wasnt even thinking about Permadeath runs.

Congratulations bro 🎉

"ah it can't be THAT bad!.... oh wait you're doing it on xbox?? dang...."

Ain’t no way, I was 15 when this came out and look like a child compared to this man, love the vid lol

One of my favorite games. Good work.

Even the speedruns of this mode are similarly on the edge.

I gave up on this achievement when my game crashed towards the end of chapter 7 (PS3)

Seeing only 10G pop up hurt my soul 💀 but good shit man, my favorite game I 100% is definitely sifu. At first you’re a bum mashing buttons but at the end of the grind you’re a martial arts god

my brain, while headaching, just gave me a random ".......holy fuck.......how awesome max payne 4 could be......like wooow". i aint even high bro.

Pain you say? Perhaps some painkiller abuse with a dash of alcoholism is in order?

This is the most unfair game mode of all Max Payne. Dare I say, and correct me if I'm wrong, of all gaming. I did succeed on the third try but still. Even without so many game-breaking glitches that cause you to lose the challenge, this mode is insanely difficult. Luckily, none of my failed attempts were due to glitches. I lost the first one because, in chapter 2, I just could not hit the guy that was going towards Giovanna as she was trying to open the door and the second was on whopping chapter 13, in the lock-up section, the guy with an FAL hit me from inside the control booth while I was taking cover behind a pillar, way across the room, got me into last stand and ducked so I could not hit him, and of course, I ran out of bullets and then Maxs body ragdolled exaggeratedly in a death animation and that was game over. I succeeded in the third attempt though.

I miss when xbox and PlayStation had different game art on the boxes

Man i despise when games add multiplayer only achievements and then they shut down the server without even bothering to update the game to at least give the achievement right as you boot the game

I couldn't go back to this game because the cutscenes were tedious af and took forever. It ruined any desire to play it again. Ffs there's such a good game in here and the unskippable cutscenes ruin it.
