Take Two Interactive has released a new Multiplayer Gameplay Part Two, the second video in our two-part series showcasing Max Payne 3’s Multiplayer.

Max Payne 3 multiplayer incorporates the Max Payne series’ famed gritty storytelling and intense gunplay into an epic online experience for up to 16 players.

Multiplayer Gameplay Part Two focuses on Gang Wars, which uses events from the single-player game as narrative starting points for matches with a dynamically shifting storyline based on the outcomes of each round; and some of the features that allow players to form grudges and alliances, such as Vendettas and the ability to join Crews; and Max Payne 3’s range of multiplayer special abiltities called Bursts, including Bullet Time.

Looking to shake things up instead of putting out yet another straightforward pure arcade racer, Namco Bandai brought in the crew most known for the FlatOut series of racers, Bugbear Entertainment. The result is a flashy title full of wrecks and explosions completely foreign to Ridge Racer up to this point. And just like the typical summer blockbluster, once all the special effects and pyrotechnics wear thin, you start to feel a little cheated when you think about it.
