Rockstar has just released a new video showcasing the unbelievable bullet time feature in Max Payne 3. As you probably know, bullet time played a huge role in the past two games. Not only does it seem bullet time has returned, but it seems that they have improved it as well using new technology that they could not have used in the first two games. Of course, bullet time will play a major role in the game, so be sure to watch the video below.

What do you think of the video? Are you more excited for the game? Was it not what you expected? Why not try and win a copy of the game by just posting in the forums? We'd love to hear what you think!

Damn, right at the start you see part of the cinematic cutscene action derived from the comic strip's in the earlier Max Payne games, have to admit it looks sweet.

Also at around 1:47 you can see an injured guy lying on the floor, unable to fight. This is what games such as Red Dead redemption lacked. This will make some interesting looking final kill cams.

This video is absolutely great from start to end. I do love to see how the R.A.G.E. + Natural Motions Euphoria Engine has improved from the last game Red Dead Redemption. The special scene where Max gets into bullet time while hanging at the cranes bit hook is just incredible and once more shows how epic the engine used in this game is. Can't wait for May and the next video!
