Wow, this is amazing! The original bullet-time featuring, film-noir style storyline action adventure game, Max Payne, is now available on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace as an Xbox Original!

“Max Payne is a man with nothing to lose. A fugitive, undercover cop framed for murder, he is now hunted by cops—and the mob. With his back against the wall, Max is fighting a battle he cannot hope to win.”

Not only that, but the sequel, Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne, has also been made available on the service!

“Between a cop, Max Payne, and a femme fatale murder suspect, Mona Sax. Dark, tragic, and intense, the story is a thrill ride of shocking twists and revelations.”

Both of these games were instant classics when they were released, and while the graphics may not stand up to the best on offer now-a-days, the gameplay is as smooth and satisfying as ever!

Max Payne and Max Payne 2 are both available now for 1200 MS Points apiece on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace.
