A new entry in the long-dormant Max Payne series and a new PlayStation 3 exclusive are both in development at internal Rockstar studios, going by the latest batch of rumors from print magazine EGM and sister website 1UP.

Max Payne 3 is apparently is development up at Rockstar Toronto, the studio responsible for the movie-inspired beat 'em up The Warriors. Considering the upcoming movie, a new game in the action-heavy shooting series would come as little surprise, though studio owner Take-Two has remained tight-lipped.

Originally created by Remedy Entertainment, the first Max Payne debuted in 2001. Publisher Take-Two then purchased the property from Remedy and producer 3D Realms in 2002, with a Remedy-developed sequel following in 2003.

A third game was teased at the end of the sequel's credits, though Remedy--currently at work on Alan Wake--soon noted that it was not developing the next Max Payne.

As for the new PlayStation 3 exclusive, the publication had little to offer, only noting that it is being helmed by Grand Theft Auto IV veterans Rockstar North.

Lol...Maybe should have titled it, "Rumor: Rockstar's Max Payne 3 to be PS3 Exclusive"

and, I sure hope so...

The article doesn't say Max Payne is going to be exclusive to the PS3, and I don't think they would make it exclusive. The game does seem to fit the 360 market pretty well afterall.

It would make sense to make another game what with the movie coming out...but I highly doubt that it would be PS3 exclusive. Besides, when this whole "Rockstar Exclusive Game" first came up, it was said to be a brand new franchise.

I just wish they redo the ones that came out for PS2. Got totally ripped off on those. The quality sucked

What the article says is that Max Payne 3 would be in development (Rumor) and that -another- IP -might- be in development by Rockstar and -might- be an exclusive to the PS3

Yep, that's a lot of might, and it's a rumor too

Several other news outlets have reprised these rumors, but they probably all have the same origin.
