Max Payne’s tragic journey into the night continues this month when Max Payne 3 releases on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, providing all of the Bullet Time action and film noir tension we could ever want out of a game.

The fact that reports point to Max Payne 3’s multiplayer matching the singleplayer portion of the title point to an unmissable experience but if you want a little extra Payne in your life, Rockstar Games is happy to provide!

DC Comics and Sierra Entertainment are teaming up to publish a new comic book series based on the Prototype video game.

The series will debut this August via DC’s WildStorm. “We’re blown away with what Sierra and developer Radical Entertainment have shown us of Prototype, and know with absolute certainty that this will make for a terrific comic book,” said Hank Kanalz, VP & General Manager, WildStorm.

“Prototype’s back-story, visuals and game play are stunning, and we have every intention of bringing those core pillars to our book because this is a great opportunity to expand on the world they’ve created, and build something new and interesting for comic book fans.”

Prototype sees players assuming the role of anti hero Alex Mercer, a genetically mutated shape-shifter who is suffering from amnesia. Set in modern day New York City, the game promises a three way war between Alex, the military’s elite Blackwatch division and a viral outbreak known as the Infected.

Prototype will be released on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this fall.
