Hello everyone, and welcome back to The Retro Vault! A journey back through time, looking at classics from the PS1, XBOX/PS2, XBOX 360 and PS3 area, maybe even further back too!
In episode two, we will be looking at the story from Remedy's Classic 2001 Film Noir Action Shooter, Max Payne. Originally released for PC, and later ported to PS2 and XBOX, this game, even today, stands the test of time! I had a blast playing through it again!

I grew up as a wide-eyed little girl watching my father play through this series of games on his PS2. He's a big part of the reason I'm a gamer now. Thanks Mike; this video brought back that family nostalgia hard-core. 😊❤

@annadziekonska7366 Год назад

same here! though for me, it was the sequel more than anything. i even have memories of playing the game myself on pc alot. my dad happily letting me do so lol. a bittersweet feeling of watching the video as it will be a year almost without him but great memories nontheless

@jaed3183 5 месяцев назад

For me it was my uncle then I got his memory card with the game saved on it and then some… also we should be friends

@HeisenbergFam Год назад

I cant believe its been 22 years since Max Payne, Remedy Entertainment did excellent job making that series, timeless classic

@ItsPHSupreme Год назад

Damn 22 years!!! Shit I’m ole 😂😂😂😂

@deusmortem9048 Год назад

you make me realize why it was such a hard game for me :c i was 6 then

@KrackedtheFup Год назад

Can't believe 22 years ago, was already in the 2000s.

@ItsPHSupreme Год назад

@@KrackedtheFup you ever think those games had more quality? I think if we brought them back the classics they would hold up today 💯

@mbbb169 8 месяцев назад

Excited to see if the remake is any good!

@AnxMa Год назад

Hi, I'm a mo cap performer and I gotta say I spend hours doing vocal exercises to Max's monologues. Great video! I also wanted to share a painful story of mine about the new Resident Evil Remakes. In late 2015 I was in contact with Capcom about the motion capture role of Leon for the RE 2 Remake. I failed to mention I also have a voice acting background, in the end I lost the part...☹ Now many years later, when I see how successful those remakes are I can't forgive myself for wasting such an opportunity. In this business one audition can change your entire life.

@TrueDiox Год назад

There is always something special to firing a gun in a Remedy game. I don't know why, but there is always something there that games from other devs don't have. And it's there from the OG Max Payne all the way to Control. Always good to revisit these.

@DarlingOfMine Год назад

I think The Longest Journey/Dreamfall games would be a neat addition to this series at some point down the line. I remember loving it as a kid, but it also creeping me out at times.

@digontozahid Год назад

Just played through it last month its still mint and the difficulty curve is so great

@nixondoesit 4 месяца назад

Reminds me of 2001 in computing studies in high school. We'd play it during class hahaha

@ShoutOfCoffee Год назад

Nice job Harry. As always. Can't wait for next one 👍👏👏👏

@lauratuominen9296 Год назад

Thanks for the blast of nostalgia, my dad used to play this on PC all the time!

@tazinbakshi3243 Год назад

Harry, awesome video man! Greatly appreciate the hard work you put in on decoding video games. A lot of the ones you mention on your channel are games I grew up with (like Max Payne) and you always manage to shed some new insightful view on it that makes me revisit them. Looking forward to seeing more of your amazing work!

@yokai333 Год назад

This is the most comprehensive video I've seen. Cool work

@genichiroashina1 Год назад

the video was bomb as always, thanks harry!

@theogpop 5 месяцев назад

Max Payne is STILL one of my favorite shooter series of all time! I own all 3 games... Played 1 and 2 multiple times over. Hard to believe its been 22 years...CRAZY. Thank you for covering the game. Severely under appreciated in my humble opinion.

@asiydah.6817 Год назад

Dead 2 Rights would be a great entry to the vault. I loved that game back in the day.

@winlover37 Год назад

I cannot wait for the remakes. The gameplay is so airtight to me that a fresh coat of paint is all it really needs.

@SimpleNobody2420 Год назад

Personal suggestions for The Retro Vault. 1) Parasite Eve 2) GTA 4 3) Predator: Concrete Jungle 4) F.E.A.R 5) Dead Rising

@Benjamin_Kuehnast Год назад

more of this would be awesome

@MintyCow101 Год назад

all i could remember from this game was trying to walk on a thin red line and a baby crying in the background, surrounded by darkness. OH since your doing ps1 and ps2 games i really hope you do Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver, its a game thats really close to my heart and has in my opinion one the greatest stories and voice acting in any game.

@mrladoucier1534 28 дней назад

I think of this game every time it snows hard and the streets are empty

@Tofuuuuuu 7 месяцев назад

Max payne had a great modding scene too. A lot of stylish weapon packs and kung fu that you could use to easily blaze through the levels.

@engineeredtech1162 Год назад

Remedy makes some of the most iconic games, and you make the most iconic videos! Loving the retro vault.

@Rhionafarley Год назад

Another really fun video! I always wondered about Max Payne but couldn't really get into it myself as it's been such a long time. Your video made it really clear and easy to understand.

@guillermogutierrez710 5 месяцев назад

My knee is hurting just to read that many here used to watch their dad play this game 🥲 This video really hit me with nostalgia. I just bought the remastered version from Steam. I know what I will be playing next. I wonder if the god mode still works in this version.

Loving the Retro Vault series ❤

@MyJC19 11 месяцев назад

Really into Norse mythology, it's funny how Woden is portrayed as this mystical all-knowing person in the background cause it is just another name for Odin plus he has one eye. Bit on the nose but I love it.

@MrElijah173 Год назад

I really like this revisit of what are now retro games!

@jonathanshaw9704 Год назад

I never played this game, but I’ve heard of it during a WatchMojo game controversy video. Apparently, this game was release a few months prior to the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and it had to be recalled for a while because the Twin Towers appear in that game.

@RagulViknesh Год назад

Wait, they are remaking the first two? Awesome!

@Pinkie277 Год назад

Absolutely loving this series so far! Im not sure if this would fall into the scope you're looking for, and it was on Gamecube, but Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is a game I would LOVE to see you do! All these years later I still consider it one of the best.

@AC-hj9tv 7 месяцев назад

@sebswede9005 Год назад

Thug: "Aren't you supposed to be a cop or something?" Max Payne: "Not tonight".

@brielle0808 Год назад

I can’t believe Max Payne is getting a remake!!!! I love it, but I hope they keep the cutscene as comic strips.

@theironknight597 Год назад

Played Max Payne for the first time last year and I must say it was incredible for a game older than me it aged very well. Loved the dialog and the brooding character of Max Payne very reminiscent of John Wick and the Matrix.

@moonlight1393 Год назад

Oh god, how I remember finding a copy of this at Blockbusters. I didn't think much of it at the time, but an employee told me that I should really play it. After playing it, I begged and begged my folks to buy me an actual copy for my PS2. They never did get it for me. But one of my cousins got to borrow his friend's copy, and we played it together. Money was tight for us back then. Actually getting a game console was a big deal for us. So, renting games, and borrowing from family and friends was how we did it. But I remember that game being such a trip.

@digibeawr4388 Год назад

I played this back in 2021 for the first time, great game that still holds up to this day.

@Cheeks_1 Год назад

I have all the MPs right next to my game setup right now. I kinda wanna run it back! also great recap as always mate

@augustvalek 2 месяца назад

god, I love the pulpy dialogue in this game

@dearhorse085 Год назад

Seriously? I was playing Max Payne 3 and was literally about to ask on one of your videos to cover Max Payne. Wow... Maybe it was at the back of my head since you covered other remedy games. Curious to see how they'll connect them all.

I think it would be cool to see Harry cover The Darkness.

Please continue this series!

@ahmadburhanhabibi Год назад

Unimportant detail but I find it funny when at 15:57 they shot him multiple times in the head (eyes) but I keep thinking that he was already fall to the ground after the first/second shot so basically they shot nothing 😂

@anantrawat2311 Год назад

Im glad that max payne hasnt had any news about the remake from remedy, it means they're cooking

Syberia, Broken Sword? Spent many hours playing those on my Grandad's computer as a child with my sisters, printed walkthrough in hand.

@nutka6 Год назад

Love Max Payne games 🤩

@nutka6 Год назад

Can't belive you didn't mentuoned that Max can play piano, and the best soup opera of any game that can be viewed in tv's in different levels 😂

@Eggly69 Год назад

There's so many good QOL mods that makes it still worth playing. If you haven't played the first person mod, I highly recommend it and some of the 4K texture packs

@alanchoichang8336 Год назад

Dude.. hearing PS3 referred to as old really makes me feel old as fuck..... I still remember the time when the ps2 came out, my brother had just come back from college for break and with him, a new ps2 and gta3... the little 9 year old in me blown away... Also, "...development heavily inspired by the hong kong action genre, in particular legendary director john wu...i guess you could also say it was also heavily inspired by the 1999 action movie the matrix" .... also heavily inspired by john wu....XD

Nostalgia!!!!

@rifflerunderhill7006 Год назад

Lifeline was a super frustrating but interesting game, just cause the voice recognition hated my partner at the time. But after struggling to identify an item for 20 minutes, naming anything it looks like, finally we tell the character to kill themselves. We get a I don't understand message and start laughing, telling them "bang bang". FINALLY they react, "Oh, the oxygen mask?" And we almost died laughing. The object on the wall looked nothing like a mask, plus what kind of accent must someone have for 'oxygen mask' to be pronounced like 'bang bang'? Just an idea for the retro vault. Lol

I don't why i spent my time on this since i adore Max Payne, but the video is great)

@skullkid964 Год назад

Can you make a story video about Resident Evil Revelations? I feel the Terragrigia Panic is very overlooked on RE lore. Specially since the event was just as bad as Raccoon city

@salvtrooper113 8 месяцев назад

Max Payne wasn’t influenced by the Matrix at all. The movie came out while the game was still being developed.

@Cavemanner Год назад

Man, I gotta go back and play through this as an adult. I was 5 when it released and 8 when I played it for the first time, enjoying the cool bullet time effect and fun gunplay, but I definitely wasn't interested in following the story. Seems like one I would genuinely enjoy nowadays!

@Alloyd876 11 месяцев назад

This game has not aged well... The dialogue is like a poor man's take on noir. It comes across as a bad porno instead.
