"Max Payne query"

Ok, perhaps one of you fine Max Payners out there can clear this up for me.
Why does the hero of this alledgedly supreme game, look like he's just smelled an extremely potent dog poo in all the screenshots I've seen and does he look like this throughout the game???

Please explain, I'm finding it slightly distressing.

Indeed its good

It's a top game.
And yes,he does look like someone has punched him in the danglies.

Either way, the game still rules!

What? are you lot havin a laugh? Max does NOT look like that throughout the game, I've seen plenty of screenshots of him with a sort of twisted half smile and yet another when he dies. As it is, during the game you can hardly see his face (except when you die or pause the game) so it makes little difference. And it is good. It's great, I recon better than half life, although about 1/4 of the lenght. The reason for his facial expression is NOT that he has smelled a doggy poo. If you take a Bullet Time dive, fire your dual barretas as fast as you can and pause it in mid dive while firing, you will understand his expression. It works, trust me.

It is good despite that though? Yes?

He looks like this through the entire game mate....must have swallowed a bee or something...or maybe hes constipated :D

That kind of realism the world of gaming does NOT need!

I imagine the game is indeed full of poo. Not dog poo though.

You see, when people die, they lose control of their muscles, including their bowels and bladder. So, basically they literally crap themselves and wet themselves.

As MAx Payne is full of shooting people, there would be a lot of poo floating about.

So its just bad choice of screen shots then.

Or is the game full of stinky dog poo?

Because he just has.

Dur!
