We'd been wondering where Rockstar Games' promised Android version of Max Payne Mobile had gone after missing its original April release window, but the company has at last narrowed down a release for its third-person revenge shooter on Google's OS. The game swings by Google Play on June 14th, although the nature of the platform means Rockstar is only vowing support for certain phones and tablets. You'll find the whole list at the source link, but it's safe to say that you'll want a higher-end Android device made during the past year by Acer, ASUS, HTC, LG, Medion, Motorola, Samsung, Sony or Toshiba. Thankfully, the $2.99 price will cover either form factor and gives you every excuse to take down Valkyr-peddling thugs on New York City's streets.

We’ve been waiting patiently for the third game in the Max Payne series, and if this recently released Bullet Time demo video is anything to go by, it will be worth the wait.
It not only looks awesome, it appears to be even bloodier this time around and the effects are better. Slow-motion Bullet Time is always instantly satisfying when you are playing a game. Well, if it is done right. In Max Payne 3, you are in control as bullets fly by within an inch of your head and your opponents have no idea that you can bend time. Bullet time will also replenish based on multiple factors such as risk, skill and shot precision. Opponents not only will move in slow-motion during Bullet Time fire, but you can see detailed injury reactions as you precisely aim for your victims.
This game looks like it should be a lot of fun when it arrives on May 15th. I can’t wait to check it out.

Are you a smartphone user with an itchy trigger finger? Listen up. Rockstar Games has announced that the one and only Max Payne will begin terrorizing your iOS and Android devices in the very near future. The wares will be available for Apple-branded gear (iPhone 3GS, 4 and 4S, along with the iPod touch 4 and all iPad iterations) on April 12th, and Google's implements two weeks later on the 26th. Max Payne Mobile is promising to deliver HD graphics, high resolution textures and exclusive content via the company's Social Club service to your miniaturized screen. Rockstar did not elaborate on which Android sets would be supported, but promised to publish a full list "in the coming weeks." Limber up those thumbs, charge up that handset and get ready to lay waste to... pretty much anything that moves.
