A detailed look at Bullet Time in Max Payne 3

Bullet Time is one of the things that seperates Max Payne 3 from the legions of other third person shooters on the market today.   A newly revamped twist on the traditional mechanic from the original games, Rockstar has released a new gameplay video for Max Payne 3 that explains all you need to know about one of the core pillars of Max Payne 3’s gameplay.

“Bullet Time is at the heart of Max Payne 3’s gameplay.  Since Max is usually outnumbered, and heavily outgunned, so strategic use of Bullet Time is the key to evening up the odds, and surviving. It replenishes based on risks you take, level of skill, and the precision of shots.”

Max Payne 3 arrives in May for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.
