I don't want to play any more of 1 and I have 2 but I really want to play 3

I would say yes, that's what I did and I thought it was pretty not bad.

Yes. There are basically no related plot points besides Max liking to drink and the game plays much different but is still really fun

1 really tested the limits of my patience. PS2 version specifically.

I felt the same way, 1 was fun when it came out but it goes on for so long and the bullet time aspect wears down on you. 3 is a more traditional cover shooter.

MP3 is one of the best third person shooters of all time

MP3 is one of the best shooting games ever. I'm replaying through it and it's still so much fun.

Is the PC port significantly better than the 360 version?

Yes. The graphics are ridiculously good on PC and on 360 it's 30 fps and you can't skip the midlevel cutscenes which is a pain if you keep dying near one

And if you play KBM you can play it more like the old games. Just swing around corners with bullet time and clean people up. I'd recommend either way. Great game

yea, there is some backstory that will better help you understand why Max is the way he is in Max Payne 3, but you're given enough through the game that you'll be okay.

and I know that I'm in the minority, but I didn't like Max Payne 1. Max Payne 2, on the other hand, is one of my favorite games, and is a lot less frustrating to play. I'd definitely recommend it, if you have the chance.

I actually really like the story of Max Payne 2 but you don't need it to play 3.
What I want is for rockstar to remaster 1 and 2 for current gen or pc.
