It was fun running this, but launching it at the wrong time proved fatal.

You can now purchase the CD single of 'Late Goodbye' by Poets of the Fall online. Fans of the Max Payne series will remember it from various times during Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne, where many characters were heard singing it and it was also played during the credits of the game.
The CD single includes a number of versions of the title track and a new song called 'Everything Fades'. The great news is that EU residents can get their copy from CDON.com for just €2.95+P&P.

As you will now be able to see MaxPayne Gaming has a new Admin to help with the running of this fine site. I'll basically be helping Neil keep the site updated and fresh by helping to add new content, downloads, news and various other things.

I'd like to start by saying that i've selected a brand new POTD seeing as the old one was starting to get a bit stale. Hopefully there'll be a lot more to come.

Uisor recently released a Dead Man Walking map of the Lupino Showdown from the original Max Payne.
