Rockstar Games Max Payne delayed again

It looks like RockStar Games has been pretty busy with their next game for Android. After the hugely successful Grand Theft Auto III release they are now bringing Max Payne to Android. It was originally coming April 26th, then last week suffered a delay. Now things are looking like next week or later for a release on the Google Play Store.

Those looking to seek revenge Max Payne style, only on their Android phones and tablets will have to play another day. Last week Rockstar Games took to Twitter answering questions and stating that the game would be available this week. Then followed up saying it will be released this week “or so” and now we know it was the latter part of that statement that was accurate.

Rockstar Games is busy making sure their newest game for Android, the popular shooter for Xbox and PS2 will run absolutely amazing on mobile devices, especially Android. We are hearing they’ll even be supporting the Transformer Prime and its Tegra 3 quad-core processor and will have graphical tweaks for the devices that can handle the improved graphics — just like the update to GTA III.

It appears to still be delayed another few days because it’s not available on the Google Play Store and Rockstar hasn’t made any announcement or comments over on Twitter. We’ve reached out for launch info and will update when we hear more details or a possible release date.

Max Payne is a nice game for action, though the graphics is not that cool though.

  Max Payne was never about graphics, which had been top at times.

Max Payne is easily one of the most revolutionary games of all time. Now that its in the palm of my hand is even better. Still upset that it hasnt come for Android yet but, I know it will be well worth the wait.

I’m pretty sure that it ‘ll work on mid and low-end mobiles such as galaxy’s mini, ace, gio, young, very weak LG’s. It has to,because optimising took them too much time.

I remember Max Payne on PC it was a technical marvel. It was one of the 1st games to fully support DirectX8. Loved it and will surely be adding it on my G-Tablet when it becomes available. Amazing only 11 years ago it was top tier PC & Console graphics today it’s a mobile game that can be played on our cell phones.
