Besides that.

Besides that. Let's get started. Hey everybody, welcome to four-player podcast. This is episode 271. My name is Nick Henderson. And we have a little bit of a different cast this week. Brad is not joining us this week, nor is David. So in their stead, we have three. How many shows has David not been on recently? I obviously lost time. He's actually been, he's been, it's been like five or six shows.

I think, yeah, it's been five or six shows since David's been able to have been on as well. So, but he'll be making an appearance in the next few weeks, I'm sure. But Brad's gone for the week. So as of right now, it's going to be me. My name is Nick Henderson. and also joining me this week, Mike Pittman, say hello.

Hello, everybody.

How's it going?

You've been playing some Max Payne?

Oh, yeah, it's been playing a lot of Max Payne. Chapter 12, almost done. You're actually probably farther than all of us. So that's cool. Jack is tonguing his beer. Stay thirsty, my friends. Jack, how does it feel to be back on the show? It's been a while. Thank you. It's good to be back. Cool. Max Payne 3, that's most anticipated a game forever? I'm not... That is my... Most anticipated this year. Okay. Because Max Payne is my third favorite franchise of all time. What are the first two? Metal Gets Solid and, well, yeah, Metal Gets Solid as a franchise. Then Final Fantasy 7 is my second game, but as a franchise, Max Payne falls. Okay. Fuck it, Max Payne's up in my top three. Okay. That'll be. So as you can imagine, like, I was pretty hyped for this game. That'll do, pig.

That'll do.

Who knows? Who knows? The point is Max Payne 3 came out this week, and we're going to have a conversation about it. We've all been playing the crap out of it. So in the second segment, we have some news topics to talk about. I won't talk about those now. The news is there will be more Max Payne discussion. Yes. There might be. Who knows? This may flow over into the second segment.

But also, before we get started, I just want to remind everybody to two things. there will be more max pain discussion. Yes. There might be. Who knows? This may flow over into the second segment.

But also, before we get started, I just want to remind everybody to two things. First of all, if you're watching the show live at 4PP.tv.
