Explain why this game is considered bad?

Max Payne 3 was one of the few games where the narrative was compelling and not at all annoying and where the plot turned into hard and pure action.

 

I loved it

A cynical middle-aged drunk popping pills talking about how he hates everyone. It's like me in my 30's, minus all the murder lol. Good game, I'm glad I came back to it after all these years.

Outside this odd Den of Geek review calling it the worst game ever, I don’t think it is thought of poorly.

I definitely enjoyed the style, narrative, environments, and overall character if it.  I found the gameplay engaging but also hit or miss at times.  It had its share of freezing/crashes unfortunately.   Very solid but stops short of being spectacular.  8/10

 

Thr platinum is a bit much but that is standard fare for Rockstar.
