I just finished…

I just finished Max Payne 3, the credits and the Health song are playing as we speak.  I realized about half way through that I was playing the game all wrong.  I set the difficulty to hard.  All that did was make it a grind.  I only realized once I replayed levels on normal how fun the actual game can be.  It wasn’t a game made for picking your way slowly across each set piece, hiding every second and using cover.  But that’s how I had to play it.  And its clear now, the enjoyment of this game wasn’t made to come from the challenge.
