Bring the dirty and grimy look of the Max Payne video game franchise to your computer screen with this Max Payne 3 wallpaper. Max Payne was originally a computer game designed for Windows users, but it later became a hit game for Mac users, XBOX consoles and PlayStation 2 consoles. The second game in the franchise came out in 2003 and gained a following among fans. The franchise even saw Hollywood adapt the game into a film that starred Mark Wahlberg. With this wallpaper on your computer, everyone will know the passion and excitement that you have for the series.

Released in 2012 by Rockstar Games, Max Payne 3 followed the titular character after the events of the last game. When he accidentally murders a crime boss's son, he decides to escape New York City and move to South America for a new job. After uncovering corruption, he finds himself hunting down criminals and eliminating street games until he finally faces off against the man in charge. The game received high ratings after its initial release, and most reviewers gave the game seven to nine stars out of 10.

When you do not have the game handy, you can remember the fun you had playing it with this desktop wallpaper. It features a single wallpaper that highlights the character Max Payne standing on the left side of the screen. The scars on his face and the bright red blood dripping down his face will instantly take you back to all those hours you spent stuck on the upper levels and trying to push through the game. The bold black color of the background lets you focus on Payne and the bright white letters that spell out Max Payne 3 across the front.

The biggest problem with this wallpaper is simply its available space. If you are like most people, you probably arrange your icons along the left side of the screen and moving towards the right. With this wallpaper, placing your icons on the left side will completely hide the image of Payne and ruin the look of the background. Moving your icons and folders to the right, above, and below the letters will restore the image of the wallpaper, but rearranging your desktop might take some time to adjust to and be a pain.

The Max Payne games sold more than seven million copies around the world, received a number of awards and garnered millions of fan. While you can play the game anytime you want, you can also enjoy the look and feel of this desktop wallpaper when you do not have time to play the game. Its bold colors and graphics will put you right back into the Max Payne story.
