This isn’t just a game. This is a memory cartridge full of adrenaline and nostalgia. Every time that menu music hits — YOU KNOW THE ONE — it’s like I’m 12 again, sitting in my uncle’s living room, holding that heavy-ass PS3 controller with sweaty hands, about to rob a f*cking bank with three AI that can't shoot straight. Bliss. The vibe? Untouchable. It’s gritty, loud, and chaotic in the best way. You’re not some polished elite operative — you’re a loud, mask-wearing menace storming into First World Bank like it's your 9-to-5. And the beauty of it? It doesn’t care about being realistic. It just wants to be fun. Pure, unfiltered, heist-core fun. Every mission feels like a movie that’s gone horribly wrong but you’re too deep to back out. Need to cook meth? Sure, just throw random chemicals together and pray. Need to escort a drunk politician out of a club while being shot at from all angles? Done. Need to carry bags of cash while police spawn out of thin air every 30 seconds? Bring it. It was janky. The AI was dumb. The controls were floaty. And yet… I LOVED IT. STILL DO. It wasn’t about perfection — it was about that feeling. Playing with friends, yelling into cheap mics, failing the same mission 5 times but laughing through it like maniacs. That game was a damn era. Payday: The Heist is a beautifully flawed masterpiece. A snapshot of a time when games were raw, fun, and didn’t need 500 cosmetics and battle passes to be legendary. Final score: Nostalgia/10. I’d rob that bank again in a heartbeat.

Few hours in and it felt pretty amazing. The graphics is good, control is good, physics is also good. The rushing feeling to mass murdering people into planning for the mission, honestly, it's been a pleasure. However it lacks map and the progress is only about new equipment and new guns. Nonetheless, payday 2 and 3 is already up long time ago, but its nice to visit the old game. i'd recommend this to you.

Gimme a good retro game and I get obsessed! Good things: -Iconic music -AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I [i] need [/i] A MEDIC BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG -Nice skins -Cheap as fu- Bad things: -MA GOD DA DOZER GAVES ME DA NIGHTMARES -Drill. Let's just wait, idk, 5 minutes? or more? oh, it broke. -Dude, I can't see sh!t with this sight on my gun! Note: I love it for nostalgia

i really like this game's difference to payday 2 and it kinda creates this barrier of change like the way the perks work, challenge and game play in some aspects i genuinely really enjoy this game!

As a fan of the Payday franchise, this one is by far the best of the entire series—a true masterpiece.

first payday, beginning of the story. amazing game for a racing engine but gets buggy sometimes. heister interactions are amazing in this game on all heists especially on fwb and diamond heist. not much meta too, you can pick up any weapon from your arsenal and rock it as long as you want. no complicated skills, no perk decks, just money and shooting. solid entry for the first game in the series and totally worth the time and money

Dropping a review here for this game because I love it so much. Been playing this game UP on the PS3 and made a lot of progress, glad to finally have this on Steam since this game is a blast to play. Even though the game isn't as popular as Payday 2 it still holds up pretty well. The gameplay is beyond addicting and I like the fact that there's a lot of RNG in certain missions which adds to the replayability. Looking forward to playing more of this game on PC and on PS3 as well (:

Could not play much in solo. Maybe with cooperative feels better, but felt really sloppy to play solo.

Still a far better Payday than the sequels. Tighter gameplay, everything works, and the 'multiple paths, one goal' concept isn't a complete phantom in this one. However, the amount of heists is tiny, and nobody plays it anymore. Only buy it if you've got a dedicated group of friends.
