Ack, almost forgot! So here is your Max Payne 2 thread for the day, please do NOT spoil the major plot ploints for people but feel free to discuss the things you like and dislike about the game. So if you have played it, what do you think? Or maybe you have some questions for people who have played it?

As the developer posted here we should hopefully see a playable demo of the game in the near future, and you can also have a look at what Jason had to say in his preview.
