Huh? Tell me more!

I'll tell you in the lightest strokes possible. (slight level spoilers ahead)

You have to infiltrate a run down 'hotel' where people go in but don't come out..

The bottom levels are very reminiscent of the rundown Piggsy level in Manhunt. Mood wise it's amazing The building is all grotty and dilapidated and the things you discover are pretty unpleasant. The music piles on the atmosphere even more.

Makes you wonder what a Manhunt game with R* next gen attention to detail would look like.

Just completed it.

Wow. The later levels are crazy. I can say that the encounters are so enjoyable that even when i had to redo sections I was still loving it.

One particular part late on was so awesome I kept restarting the checkpoint just so I could do it again and again. I find the controls just 'right' now as others have said it's chapter 4-5 onwards when this seems to click. And from then on I found myself being a bit more daring with how I approached enemy encounters.

I found that the more crazier and more reckless I was in certain situations the better I played. Max has a death wish so may as well play him that way.

But yeah fantastic game. I can now jump into Multiplayer.

Holy fuck at the

machete

bit.

Also,

Captain Baseball Bat Boy and dropping buses on enemies

.

Chapters 9 and 10 are some of the best so far.

Oh you still have some treats to come.

Just started chapter 13 and wowsers at the last few levels.

Currently on a very 'Manhunt-esque' stage.

The Health soundtrack is perfectly pitched at this part.

Very unsettling.

Haven't hit the favela yet then I take it?

It's glorious.

That whole section was one moment after another of

Just makes me salivate at what architectural wonders R* have up their sleeves for GTAV.

I've got all three.

Although the Wii sits unloved at the bottom of my TV cabinet.

PS3 for Blu Rays, a smidgen of interesting exclusives and watching my converted MKV versions of Mad Men and GoT on monday evenings.

360 for pretty much everything else Kinect voice control makes everything better especially the media capabilities of the machine and the 'apps' have been a masterstroke for the 360 imo.

Got to say the story is pretty good so far. Solid and interesting and the whole vibe is great some of the levels have been stunning. But what sells it to me is the performances.

R* have a touch that very few devs have. Good voice work and believable performances take the game up a notch.

I still cannot believe that such an important part of the game is often half assed by other devs. i count Valve and Epic as two companies who make the effort.

Yeah chapter 5 is the docks. Can't say i remember a point where you get pushed back 20 mins for dying.

Sent you back 20 mins? What part was that?

Ok comfortable enough with the controls now to pull off some daring moves. Love that you have to keep moving in later stages or be completely outgunned.

Anyone watched "Amore et Damas" yet?

The one with the pregnant woman? As the end of that one was

The game is tricky enough in Medium. I'll be saving Hard mode for my second run through.

Just on that chapter now Vemsie. That particular moment was awesome.

Did you find that

retired cop in the toilet?

Problem with the GAF thread was they'd decided they loved the game before they'd even played it. Lot of pre-launch confidence and love invested in the game. They wanted to believe.

I'm still taking the day off to play this and planning a junk food and beer banquet to go with it. I'm going in with low expectations (about the game) and hope to be surprised.

The majority of Gaf who posted in Max Payne 3 threads since the game was revealed actually despised the game for a long,long time. So to see even them come around is a hoot.

As for the game i' have it on atm just having a tea break and it's fantastic so far.

Don't think i've played a game this gen where the guns feel so'right'.

Play the game properly, you have to state the retailer. If it happens to be Tesco you get a + 1 as I placed my order with them.

Shopto unfortunately.

Nice. My copy just arrived.

One game that seems to have flown under most peoples radars but could be quite exciting especially in the wake of games like Day Z and it's approach to Zombies, is Undead Labs Class 3. An open world co-op zombie survival game for Xbox Live Arcade. I know there was a thread back in Feb but it garnered about 6 replies.

Zombie Survival

What if society came screeching to a halt? What if all our rules and laws no longer mattered? ‘Class3′ brings these questions to life in a very real way. It’s not just about combat; it’s about doing what you must do to stay alive. Food, water, shelter, and ammo — you’ll need them all. Taking you beyond the initial panic, and beyond the first weeks of the crisis, ‘Class3′ is the embodiment of the “What if?” zombie apocalypse scenario.

Sweet Action

Move through the world like a zombie-slaying badass. Dive through windows, jump on cars, and take it to the living dead with baseball bats. Hop in a truck and mow down some undead pedestrians. Break into the local police station and clear out their arsenal or walk into the local grocery store to stock up on your favorite junk food. The world is your oyster…a shiny oyster that happens to be filled with zombies.

An Evolving World

‘Class3’ is an open sandbox world that develops in real-time, dynamically generating content based on your actions, the choices you make, and the ever-increasing zombie threat. Decide where you’d like to set up a fortified safe haven for you and other survivors you’ve rescued, then form raiding parties to gather resources and create supply chains. Use the materials you’ve gathered to develop your community as you see fit, but be careful — resources will deplete as you pillage areas, and zombies are attracted to noise and activity. Take up the offensive by assaulting hordes before they reach your settlement, or focus on improving your defenses against the massed zombie attacks. Every choice and every action matter in this fully simulated, evolving world.

It sounds ambitIous both for the class 3 version and their plans for a bigger MMO version codenamed Class 4 which will support more players.

The best news for me is that they've built it on Cryengine 3 and they've got Jesper Kyd doing the music.

Hopefully we get to see it at E3.

Yeah this was just one list. Apparently they've found some more but it's still written up in data format. As for planes there are at least 4 in the trailer.

Shopto orders are being dispatched.

Will have the game by tomorrow morning hopefully.

So apprently someone digging around the Max Payne 3 disk came across this. R* have been caught out in the past leaving this kind of data on games like bully for instance.

Here is the complete list without all the vehicle data,

As of now, there are:

48 Cars

5 Bikes

10 Heli's

1 Plane

25 Boats

9 Train models

Biggest potential hot news for me Snowploughs and controlling trains are back.

For those interested from the ad or Health fans. 'Tears' is available to purchase.

If you've got a good sound system it will give it a good workout. Absolutely pounding beat.

Update Monday, May 14th: In less than one week on the market, Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has sold more than 1,000,000 units globally .

A few other fun facts about Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition that I though you’d like:

Total Online Hours: 5.2M

Multiplayer sessions: 4M

Total Multiplayer gaming hours: 2.4M

Another wise MS move it seems and XBLA goes from strength to strength.

Nintendo's is at 5.00pm (UK Time)

Does anyone know if there is a demo due for this? I feel the need to try before I buy.

R* haven't done demos for any of their games this gen.

I don't think they did last gen either.

Shame they didn't do a GTA and release it on a tuesday

It is slightly annoying. A game like this for me is spoiler sensitive having the yanks have a head start is a bit silly especially because we know R* could release this on the same day as the states if they wished.

knowing shopto people will start getting this from wednesday onward *crossed fingers*

Indeed i'm just waiting to receive that 'shipped' text from them.

Although R* have in the past made places like Shopto hold to not putting the game out early.
