Max Payne 3 First Official Trailer

Rockstar Games have released the highly anticipated first trailer for Max Payne 3. I have watched it a couple times already and it looks to be a game of the year contender for 2012. I plan to take a closer look at this title when I visit the Rockstar booth at New York Comic-con in October. Below is the official press announcement:

"Still haunted by the memories of his traumatic past, Max begins a new life working private security protecting a wealthy industrialist and his family in São Paulo, Brazil. When gangs target the family under his protection, Max is forced to fight to save his clients and clear his name, in a bid to, once and for all, rid himself of the demons that have tortured him for far too long.


Max Payne 3 is coming March 2012 to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC."
