The Max Payne series is a landmark in videogame history. It pretty much became one instantly, regarding it's integration of "bullet time." AS far as storyiline it integrates all the drama of a great film and graphic novel in, as well. That is an understatement!

You can hardly judge a series by a demo.

hmmm but what game had bullet time first? "Max payne did!"
and like developers say, demos are only trial, rough versions of the game and still are to be fixed up/polished up before release. so give it a second chance! and i mean it depends if you like perving at sexy vampires or playing a great game wit and slaying nazis with countless weapons and cheap write offs of 'bullet time' or playing an immensley deep storyline with great action. Blooodrayne dosent have a very 'original' storyline for those who've played it and also has very 'un-original' features. (alas 'Bullet-Time' Nazi slaying etc...) So it really depend what youre into Its my word against yours so, you make your own mind up. ~Grim Reaper~ "Max Mayne, Brutal DEA agent Killer?" no no just a fugitive cop with nothing to lose. Alex would be turning in his grave knowing Max was framed for his murder. FUCK YOU JACK LAPINO!!!

i've only played the first... I like it, but its hardly outstanding. Bullet Time is good, but in the end it ammounts to a gimmick... one of the best gimmicks i've seen, but still just something of little consequence that was hardly worth basing an entire game around. Thankfully the story is pretty good, and i love the way the game doesn't want to take itself too seriously... but at the end of the day its linear as hell, the voice acting isn't fantastic, and its a bit of a no brainer.
Two more things: no demo i've ever seen for a game released on the PC is from a "work in progress" game, or at least not from an area that didn't end up exactly the same in the demo. As for originality, its a basic fact that no-one cares (and i say that in a "its a shame" way). A game called Kingpin did the whole gangster action thing, and surely the numerous car-crime games did it as well. Bullet time could be said to be a rip-off from the Matrix. If people actually cared "who did it first", Halo wouldn't be half as popular as it is: its not who gets there first, just who does it best.

Max Payne 1 was the beginning of a new era!!
With the new bullet-time feature and fast action gameplay it provided many new senses - stealth, shooting and anxious yet vicious murder in one bullet. But the one bad thing is down to the PS2 version in that some of the movies are glitchy and do not work very well... but hey it was a very new concept!!

Despite the fact that it's a damned fine game, I don't think Max Payne is that innovative. In the first one, bullet time is an optional extra for the majority of the game (I pressed mouse button 2 to look cool, rather than any strategic advantage) and the rest is a wonderful bundle of Computer Game and Movie cliche.
