The sequel is never as good as the origional--NY101 16:37, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
- Funny thing, I played Max Payne 2 first and thought Max Payne was nearly unplayable by comparison. And I can't imagine anyone saying the story isn't objectively better in in the sequel. 24.5.178.21 13:26, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
- Obviously, you have never played the Warcraft series. Chronolegion 14:06, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
Will there be a third in the series?
- Seemed like there would be for a while, but Remedy is working on Alan Wake now. I'm hopeful that it'll scratch the same itch. 68.8.21.7 19:32, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
I haven't played the second game, and one part of the plot confused me. Are there special circumstances around Max being shot in the head? Was it during one of his dreams? If not, he's a tough guy, being shot in the head and later saving the day O.o Lovok 14:08, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
- He really was shot. As far as I know, how he survived wasn't dealt with explicitly. I assume it was just lucky circumstance. It happens. 70.95.220.131 03:46, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
- I prefer the Second game. but talk pages are about things that will improve the article.

[edit] Easter Egg Issue
In Part 2, Chapter 1, there is a desk, where an officer and a suspect is talking. The crime is: the suspect killed his wife and the pizza delivery boy with a chainsaw and hid it in the bathroom. This is reference to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, because you can find a chainsaw in a bloody bathtub in an apartment. That seems pretty far fetched. MP2 takes place in NY while GTA:VC takes place in a Florida like state. It should be noted that the movie Scarface has a scene it it involving a bloody bathtub and a chainsaw which more likely than not was the inspiration for the rooms in VC and/or MP2 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bushido Brown (talk • contribs).
- Scarface was the inspiration for both references; the Vice City reference is far more obvious, as both take place in Miami. However, it's somewhat possible that the MP2 dialogue is referencing VC, which, in turn, was referencing Scarface. -- Kicking222 19:30, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] For a newbie, I've made a huge edit...
I've edited the character summaries, placed the necessary minor characters under a header of their own, deleted the non-needed ones, such as "the cleaners", Vinnie's mobsters and such, placed the ending spoiler warning in the end of the "easter eggs" section, and deleted a few links: the ones to two mods, to the German patch (I found it neither on FilePlanet in the respective place, nor on the official website, so I've counted it to be unofficial and deleted it), to the Max Payne forums (which also seemed unofficial to me) and to the New York Minute records web page. I've left the link to "PayneReactor" because I felt it's the only good and functioning Max Payne fan site that was listed... I'm placing this "report" on the talk page because I want to know if I've done something wrong or not. So reply. I'll be watching this page. Litis 20:17, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Easter Eggs?
I really don't think any of those count as Easter Eggs. They definitely help the article and many of them ARE useful to people trying to understand the plot. But I think we need to find a better category name than Easter Eggs, since those are mainly just features and details. Gundato 21:57, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- I agree. Thanks for alterring my mistaken edit too. Reverieuk 00:20, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
