Rockstar shows off Max Payne 3’s visual effects and cinematics in the latest design video

Following up on the latest batch of screens showing off the game, Rockstar Games has delivered the next part of their design and technology video series for the Max Payne 3.

This new video, as seen embedded below, focuses on the visual effects and cinematics, which knowing Rockstar, have to be good.

Check it out below.

Visual Effects and Cinematics focuses on the efforts to which Rockstar Studios has gone to bring a unique and powerfully cinematic presentation style to the fluid and sophisticated gunplay of Max Payne 3. The video highlights the real time motion-comic panel generator that updates the graphic novel style cutscenes made famous by the original games, as well as a series of innovations that move the game seamlessly from cutscene to gunplay and from one chapter to the next, putting greater emphasis on the moment-to-moment shooting action, and keeping the player locked into Max?s dark and troubled narrative.
