Orlay_ Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I posted this in another site that I use, but I'm just spreading the word. What do you all think? ------------------------ Googling Max Payne 3 pass got me this quote from Escapist. quote The Escapist Rockstar has dealt with a large amount of controversy since GTA 3, due to Rockstar's evil wizard-like control of the minds of innocent teens everywhere. Wisely, Rockstar has decide to exclude a part of the Max Payne games that could have caused more controversy... unless you buy the game new. That's right, Max's painkillers, which take the place of medkits, are off limits to those who buy the game used. "When we where looking back at the first few games, we noticed something... kinda ****ed up." Says Dan Houser, lead writer of Max Payne 3. "I'm surprised we didn't get **** for this the first time. Max Payne is addicted to drugs. He can't get through a gunfight without one. Jesus Christ, and he's supposed to be a good guy, a cop!" Dan Houser goes on to introduce a more nuanced (and much more mature, American solution -Dan Houser) gameplay mechanic than popping pills for those without the pass. Instead, Max Payne will snort coke. This won't heal him, but it will increases his resistance to damage for a few minutes. It also changes his animations and dialog lines. After consumption, he walks with a twitch, and Max's noir-like narrataion become those of a raving strung-out lunatic taking on the world. "Players who buy it used should try equipping the M16A4 with the grenade launcher, and then snort a f**k-ton of yayo before entering the next area" Dan hints, "trust me, it's worth it." I never got into the older installments because they came out when I was playing Halo 2 in tournements. With this information, I think I'll skip out on the series all together. I mean, an online pass is one thing but changing single player game mechanics? Sorry Rockstar, ya lost me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlay_ Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 I'm pretty sure it's a joke because of the trouble Houser has been in with police... but some people are taking it seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 LOL. Lets get him off the OTC crap and give him something more American like Coke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Did someone say cocaine? This is obviously a joke, and a very good one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 This is obviously a joke. If they were going to remove content from single player if you didn't have an online pass that is all they'd do, they wouldn't spend even more money developing something for the people that buy their game used. Although I will admit it would be pretty funny. Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Rockstar has never done anything like this before though unlike other companies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
