Been diving into Firebreak all week Gameplay feels smooth and engaging! 🔥 That said, the limited level variety makes the game feel stale. By the time your gear’s fully unlocked, you’ve pretty much seen it all. Would love to see more variety in future updates. Solid FPS though!!

2025 might be the year of FBC: FireBreak but let’s not forget Remedy is cooking a very tasty Max Payne 1&2 remake 😭

The @CorridorDigital crew just rewatched the Max Payne movie and isn’t holding back on its VFX. Do you agree with their take? Watch their breakdown here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNzQ...

Sad to hear about the passing of David Lynch. An incredibly talented director and a great source of inspiration for Sam Lake.

Let me kindly remind you that @remedygames is hard at working making REMAKES of the Max Payne games. You haven’t forgotten about that, have you? 🥹

Picking a Game of the Year has been quite the challenge for me this year. Nothing really seemed to resonate or itch that scratch. In comes Indiana Jones. Lemme tell you kid, it’s freaking good!
