Trailer: Max Payne 3

Max Payne 3 publishers Rockstar have released a final launch trailer to build excitement for the title, due out on Friday May 18.

As you'd expect, it's as gritty as a swimsuit after a day at the beach, with a noir-ish voiceover and a lot of grim slo-mo.

The makers haven't added anything that's not in the game, though, so it gives a great impression of what the experience will be like.
