Session fun rating: 8/10
I played through chapters 4, 5 and 6. Chapter 4 is set in the past, when Max was still in New York. Of course, he's in a shitty bar, getting hammered when he gets in trouble with some local gang bangers. Predictably, a shootout ensues where Max and Raul have to murder their way out of the bar. Back at Max's dirty house, the gang banger's father shows up with a bunch of guns for hire to kill Max. I then had to shoot my way through the building through the roof. In the end, Max shot a bunch of dudes and decided that he would got to South America with Raul to get away from all that shit.
Chapter 5 was set in a crummy South American marina of sorts where Max and his buddy have discovered that Fabiana was held. We shot our way through dozens of guys until we got to the docks where we shot more dudes. Then we shot some more. It all ended in a huge boat chase where Max was wielding some sort of heavy machine gun, blowing up boats and Fabiana getting away.
Chapter 6 was a pivotal point in the story. Max is hanging out at his bosses office when, as usual, bad guys show up and a series of slow motion shootouts follows. I was tasked with escorting an IT employee to the server room to reactivate security in the office. Eventually, we got it back online but the boss was still killed. One of the dying guards nearby told Max they were after him and not the boss.
That's where Max finally shaves his head, as seen in all the promotional images. He wants to hide, but he also seems to be trying to give up drinking! He is now heading to the slums of Sao Paulo to find Fabiana.
