FULL STORY
======================================================================

James McCaffrey, the actor arguably best known within the gaming community 
for voicing Max Payne, and more recently Alex Casey in Alan Wake 2 and its 
predecessor, has died at the age of 65. 

A representative for McCaffrey told TMZ - which first reported the news - 
that the actor was previously diagnosed with a type of cancer, multiple 
myeloma. He reportedly passed away on Sunday (December 17), and was 
surrounded with family and friends. 

In a statement released to TMZ, McCaffreys representative said: One of Dick 
Wolf's proteges, McCaffrey went on to a successful 35 year career in 
television and film. Trained at the Actor's Studio, he never lost his love 
for creating characters; however, his good looks often pushed him toward 
leading man roles. 

 This story is developing. 

 Alan Wake 2, which McCaffrey had a key role in, is one of the best horror 
games available to play right now, and is one of TechRadar Gamings games of 
the year for 2023.
