Sam LakeSam Lake is a writer who is mostly known for his work on the popular Max Payne video game series. Lake is good friends with Petri Jrvilehto, a founding member of Remedy Entertainment, the company behind Max Payne. Jrvilehto needed help with script writing in one of Remedy's early games called Death Rally, and invited Lake to write. Since then, Lake has helped write and design Remedy's most successful game: Max Payne. Max Payne Lake played several roles in the development of Max Payne. He not only wrote the game's story and script, but also helped design levels, and was the face model for the character of Max Payne. He posed as Max Payne in the game's graphic novels as well. Because of the game's budget, Remedy could not hire actors. As a result, Lake, along with other Remedy programmers played the roles. Max Payne 2:The Fall of Max Payne In this sequel, Lake mainly stuck to the job of writing. The game's script ended up being about four times as long as some movie scripts. For the sequel, Remedy was able to hire actual actors for it's graphic novel scenes, so Lake did not appear as Max Payne. The ending theme song, "Late Goodbye" is actually a poem by Lake. The song was adapted by the Finnish group Poets of the Fall.
