Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser says he 'failed' with Max Payne 3, and I'm sorry Danno but that's just plain wrong

Dan Houser is a co-founder of Rockstar Games and so I would never presume to tell him he's wrong about any of the games Rockstar has made— except in this one particular instance, where I feel obligated to step up and say, 'Dan, I'm sorry bud, but you're wrong.'

The game in question is Max Payne 3 , on which Houser played a central role, and one he seems rather down on: In an interview with IGN , he said the game was a "failure" because, simply put, he's not Sam Lake, the Remedy creative director who wrote the first two Max Payne games.
