The first 2 Max Payne games were amazing. I loved them. Relocating Max to some warm and colorful place in MP3 turned me off.

Chuck Yeager : "Monkeys? You think a monkey knows he's sittin' on a rocket that might explode? These astronaut boys, they know that, see? I'll tell you somethin'. Takes a special kind of man to volunteer for a suicide mission, especially when it's on TV. Ol' Gus, he did alright.'
Got my second shot a few hours ago finally - Puh-fizer - getting a headache and feeling a bit tired so I think I'll go have me a lie down.

The Grizzly Bear Had Hunted Him For Days. He Was Tired And Almost Out Of Ammo. Then...A Miracle.Five people have been killed by bears so far in 2021, up from four in 2020.
Only three people have been killed by the vaccine. Yet it's considered more frightening.
But seriously, who goes into the outback without enough ammo. 👀 Dude wasn’t worth rescuing in my book.
