Max Payne Live-Action Short Movie Completed
potaz writes "3D Realms is reporting that an officially-sanctioned Max Payne short movie has been completed. It's a student project called "Max Payne: Hero" and is available - complete - for download from maxpaynehero.com." While we're waiting for the next Max Payne game installment (and, indeed, the next game from his friend Duke), this seems like a neat way to wile away the time.
...When one source is FileShack (subcription) and the other is FilePlanet (Communist File Queue of DOOM).
Well, actually the files are hosted on fileplanet, so it should be pretty ok.
Try here or here.

YAY only took 2 times to get a working file
The acting was sub par, the shots (in some cases the explosions set off in the background did not at all match the angle of the blanks being shot at them.
(Things exploding directly behind the hero while he is being shot at..... not exactly perfect, but hey when you only got enough money for 1 take of explosions It's probably much better than all that.)
I was looking forward to some high speed camerawork but alas, I can't get all I want. (Besides it's really friggen expensive to do that kinda stuff. matrixesque as it were)
Not too bad. Fight scene is better then you'd see on a Showtime 3:00am movie, can't really comment on the "acting" Its a short, so the fact that there's not much story to it isn't so bad. The music.. whatever. It was a short. Basically takes the element of Max Payne that was cool ( slow motion shoot out ) and makes a live action version of JUST that. I've put it on Kazaa, but I don't know how long I'll keep it there. Do a search for maxpaynehero.zip Grinn.
I'd rather paypal the author $1 than register with yet another e-mail harvesting 'service'. :(
