The Bottom Line:

"Broken"

After my waiting I finally ran to my game store and got my pre-ordered Max Payne 3, a pain in the waiting.
I ran home and turned on my gaming PC that has served me Oh so well over the last year and half. A machine truley for the art and sport of PC gaming. I loaded my MP3 and waited as I sat in anticipation to play with all the hype that was out on the consoles. Finally, done, I clicked the MP3 Icon and away I went, not!
MP3 would not start or give a reason for not starting, now the hunt for a fix, 40 hours later and nothing, right where I was at when I first clicked. I've tried over 70 fixes, reloaded the game 6 times, went on their website over and over to see multitudes of fix recomendations before the game even came out. Internet the same complaints by the boatload, crashes, display problems, rights problems and you name it, it was there. So, I sit here 5 days later and all I get is the patcher screen when I click the MP3 Icon. So I say I give this game a 2. In all my years of gaming, I have only seen one other game with so many issues. I truly don't know if this game can run on my machine and after day 10, it goes in the receptacle.
Life is too short to fool around with poorly made products like this one. I am saddened and disappointed at this game.
