BBFC deliver 18 certificate to Max Payne 3

Unsurprisingly all that gunfire and bald guy acrobatics in Rockstar's Max Payne 3 has been deemed appropriate only for the minds of 18-year-olds, because maturity kicks in then.

We don't want children entering 'bullet time' in playgrounds and harping on about saving their employer's daughter from Brazilian gangsters. No cuts have been made to it.

This is the first Max Payne to be made by someone other than its creator, Remedy. Rockstar Games have taken over. It releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC May 18th in Europe.

That's a bit stiff, when the Australian OFLC (alsways know to be sticks in the mud) have rated it MA15+:

I hope this does not change the OFLC's min (small as it is).
