New Max Payne 3 Screenshots Released

Just yesterday, Rockstar Games has released new screenshots for the upcoming Max Payne 3 and in my opinion, they're a little reassuring. It's actually the reason why the screen I put right below the title of the story to show that Rockstar may know what they're doing. We will definitely be seeing Max's troubles overcome him over time, which leads him to the "Bruce Willis" look that he has gotten in its earlier screenshots that we've seen.

I honestly thought that we would be playing as Bruce Willis-Max, but even seeing from the screen right above, we'll be at least playing through moments of his life before, we can assume at least, where he will begin to go on a downward spiral.

To check out all the screenshots, head on over to Rockstar Games' official Max Payne 3 website!

Grand Theft Auto V in development?

This week, there has been a bit of a leak, concerning what Rockstar Games has been developing right now and that would be their next installment in the Grand Theft Auto franchise. Much like Grand Theft Auto IV during its development, Rockstar had begun registering domain names for sites that are comical and satircal for ads running in their game, but one significant leak is the game's cast and where it will take place.

Reported by Kotaku, the codename for the project is called "Rush" and is set to take place in a fictional Los Angeles, much like New York City in GTAIV. Coming from a site called The Agency, the casting calls are as follows.

Mitch Hayes:
38 - Annoying, wise cracking, highly successful FBI agent. In great shape. Does triathlons, drinks low cal beer, but still has a sense of humor.

Miguel Gonzalez:
25 - Young Mexican American FBI agent, caught between a few mob bosses. Very clean cut

Clyde:
23 - Moronic, almost inbred and creepy white trash hillbilly. Very naïve but in a creepy "it's only incest sort of way"

Brother Adam:
Welsh monk / cult leader / yoga teacher - 50, very lithe, very into exploring your personal tension through gripping massage. Needs Welsh accent.

Mrs Avery:
Neurotic soccer mom, home maker, 48, anxious and addled on pain killers. Very angry at neighbor MRS Bell.

Mrs Bell:
Swinger, and mellow Californian divorcee. 45. Ugly but comfortable with self.

Eddie:
47 - Weed evangelist, guy who started smoking at 30, and is now a leading proponent of marijuana's fantastic properties. White, awkward.

Ira Bernstein:
56 - publicist for an actress known as America's newest sweetheart who just so happens to love animals, orphans, drugs and sex. He's always trying to hide her latest indiscretion.

Kevin De Silva:
18 - Albert's fat, FPS playing gamer son. Smokes a lot of weed, has anxiety issues and a card for a bad back, very soft, very opinionated. Into making racist comments while playing online.

Harut Vartanyan:
42-52 years old - Armenian car dealer, moneylender, would be Fagin and would be bully. Heavily connected to the underworld, but irritates people so much no one likes him.

Nervous Jerry:
48 - paranoiac living in the sticks, near Simon, completely paranoid, and terrified of Simon.

Calvin North:
55 - clapped out FBI agent who now mostly works offering advice on TV shows - whose only claim to fame turns out to be entirely false - but a decent guy in other ways. Badly dressed. Divorced. Putting on weight.

Jerry Cole:
53 - disabled IT expert and criminal information vendor.

Rich Roberts:
English hardman actor, 35, who acts tough but who wants to do serious work - the only problem is he can't quite read the words.

Alex:
white 52 yr old loosie goosie hippy rich guy who has lost his money and is getting desperate but trying not to.

Scarlet:
45-52 years old - unshaven female spiritualist and hippy with a love of exploring the wilderness. Very into journeys.

Chad:
29 - pretty boy misogynist Beverly Hills party boy. Made money, but not as cool as he thinks he is.

I'm assuming that E3 is right around the corner, that this is where we'll get an official announcement and teaser. Keep a look out!
