The \"Crews\" feature of Max Payne 3 is basically the same as what would be clans or guilds in other games. Rockstar Games has revealed that if you join a crew in MP3, that same crew can be carried over into GTA V.For example, these crews will have a vendetta system. If some specific player kills you a few times in a multiplayer match in MP3, you will have a vendetta on him. Now, you could encounter him in GTA V and maybe you are better than him there. You can settle your vendetta this way. This is all tracked through the Rockstar Games Social Club.The same would work with crew Feuds, only this is between crews instead of players. In essence, this carry over system seems to be an interesting feature. Rockstar Games has been rebuilding Social Club after it was shot down by the community as a failure and a let-down in social networking.

Rockstar has just released yet another video of the Design and Technology series. Visual Effects and Cinematics focuses on the efforts to which Rockstar Studios has gone to bring a unique and powerfully cinematic presentation style to the fluid and sophisticated gunplay of Max Payne 3.The video highlights the real time motion-comic panel generator that updates the graphic novel style cutscenes made famous by the original games,  as well as a series of innovations that move the game seamlessly from cutscene to gunplay and from one chapter to the next, putting greater emphasis on the moment-to-moment shooting action, and keeping the player locked into Max’s dark and troubled narrative.

Be sure to follow us via twitter (@RockstarInform) to stay on top of all the latest developments!

As previously announced IGN has just recently posted the Max Payne 3 multiplayer feature. All in all there really aren't any shocking new details that some of us were expecting, instead we are left with a summary of what kind of gamemodes we can expect.Apparently the gamemodes in Max Payne 3 change depending on each round so the first round might be a drug-deal gone wrong and then the second round might be about a bounty on another successful player of the first round.Also interesting are several 'perks' that enhance your gameplay. These special abilities can be unlocked as you accumulate XP. The perks are inspired by the individual characteristics of the factions open to players in multiplayer.All the usual things you'd expect are obviously in, bullet time to name one, and there's even some story elements in multiplayer. This all pretty much sums it up but if you're interested in reading the long version check out the full article!
