i imagine those pics are pretty close to how it will look in game. if you remember the last one, they used the engine for rendering everything and nothing was pre-rendered. and as far as max payne multiplayer, the question we keep coming back to, is how to effectively make max payne multiplayer. and it seems as though there isnt really a good way. the two ways we could come up with, are for everyone to go into bullet-time when one person uses it and to get the game out of sync so that when you use it the game goes on and the person that uses the least bullet-time would essentially finish first. there are problems with both ways really. if everyone goes into bullet time, its gonna be real annoying if you are just walking down a hallway and you have to go all slow. in addition, whenever stuff is slowing down and you didnt do it, you are all gonna freak out and look everywhere to make sure no one is about to tag you. with the other way, if you dont use bullet time, and someone else does, you could have already cleared the room, but since the other person had already gone into bullet time, you will still be there and essentially you could die even if you escaped danger. man, complicated!!!
