Homelan Petri Max 2 Interview

Also up is a second Petri Jarvilehto interview today talking about Max Payne 2. Homelan's interview talks a bit about Max Payne 1, as well as Max Payne 2, the console ports, and.. aw hell, just read it. Here's some samples..

HomeLAN - When the time came to develop the sequel what were the team's main goals?

Petri Jarvilehto - We wanted to create something new and exciting as a team, and we obviously wanted the sequel to be better than the first one in every respect. With a sequel, it would be easy to just repeat the formula of the original title again, but that way, even at best, the sequel could only ever be a watered down version of the first game.

HomeLAN - What locations will Max Payne find himself in the sequel?

Petri Jarvilehto - We�re using various locations from run down buildings to luxurious manor houses, wide-open spaces to claustrophobic death traps. We�ve done extensive research and gathered tons of real world source material. Once again our guys got to visit some seriously run-down locations. Equally, Rockstar was able to get our guys into mansions, hospitals, Upper East Side New York apartments etc.

Check out the full interview (with two more screenshots) here.
