Following Remedy Entertainment has been a pleasure since the studio's early days and just like the rest of the film-noir enthusiasts, we're excited for what the future holds, both for the Max Payne series that has been lying dormant for some time and for the studio behind it.

There are games that fit their genres and then there are games that define their genres.
