Two weeks ago, Max Payne & Rockstar Games fansite webmasters were flown in from around the world for a weekend of Max Payne 3 action. Held in Rockstar's backyard of south-central Manhattan, this was the largest fansite event that the R* team has ever hosted.

We're extremely grateful for the opportunity to check out the game and meet other fansite webmasters. (Thanks, Rockstar!) We're psyched for the release of Max Payne 3.

We've posted a rundown of our impressions on our new sister site, PayneForums.com. It covers our experiences during the event, and our impressions of the game - specifically system performance, gameplay, Max's abilities, game visuals, multiplayer, and our hopes for the future of the game (including DLC and online community).
