Max Payne 2 Gone Gold

Natoi writes "Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne has gone gold and will be shipping to stores on the 15th of October in the States and on the 24th in Europe. Max Payne 2 is developed by Finnish Remedy Entertainment, which sold the rights to the Max Payne name to Rockstar Games after the first game in the series a little over two years ago." Playstation 2 and XBox versions are slated for an early December release as well.

No way.

Notice how the lady obviously does not have the upper body strength required to even hold up the weapon

A fully-loaded M-16A2 with undermounted grenade launcher weighs a total of about twelve pounds. My mother could carry that today, and she's not exactly young.

A Barrett M82A1--which is a big honkin' piece of hardware (click here)--weighs about thirty pounds. So as a rough guess, I'd say the hardware she's carrying there in the screenshot (a rifle I can't place, although it looks vaguely Dragunovish, which would make it nine and a half pounds fully loaded) weighs no more than twelve pounds.

So either you don't know jack about women, if you think they can't carry a twelve-pound weapon, or you don't know jack about firearms. Take your pick which. :)

(Up until her 50th birthday, my mother could beat me in skeet shooting. Her preferred rig was a twelve-gauge firing three-inch magnum rounds. So please don't tell me "real women can't handle hardware like that." Real women, especially real women who come from Alabama and grow up hunting and fishing with their fathers, most definitely do handle hardware like that.)
