13. Max Payne 2 (XBOX)
Max Payne is a seriously under-appreciated series, consisting of three exceptional instalments, each inspired by the works of classic twentieth-century detective writers such as Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett.
In particular, the second entry - The Fall of Max Payne - is a standout, also happening to feature a genuinely stylish cover design, depicting the central characters in profile, silhouetted against a white background, emphasising the romantic elements of the story. It also brings everything full circle, referencing the literary fiction that inspired the franchise in the first place, which is a nice touch.
