he had grinned, a friendly bear, but I had seen it in his eyes. We hadn't been on the side of the winners in a long time. He was playing it safe, talking shop:
he had grinned, a friendly bear, but I had seen it in his eyes. We hadn't been on the side of the winners in a long time. He was playing it safe, talking shop:
"To get to the source, we need to get to Jack Lupino. For that, you need the trust of the small-timers in the Punchinello family. Joey and Virgilio Finito. Lupino's number one man, Vinnie Gognitti. All the wiseguys."
It must have been there. The sign of things to come. Clear in the fear in Alex's eyes, in the darkness of the coffee I was drinking, in the way my Beretta dug painfully into my side. But we were blind to it then, closing our eyes to it. Refusing to see. Later that night, Max Payne as a DEA special agent was erased from the vast network of databases, and replaced with a new version of me: Max Payne, the career criminal with a mile-long rap sheet.
A couple of days ago it had all come crashing down. The bad things came, like a winter storm. Pushed over the edge, I found myself in that cold no-man's land between right and wrong.
No road-signs. On a crash-course with the Mafia. With nothing to lose. The NYPD was trailing me by the dotted line of empty shell casings that I left behind. I was trying to look for the answers, but every gunshot, instead of closure, was just a hole with more questions leaking out. A spreading labyrinth of questions, like a pool of blood spread-
The car stops in the traffic lights. Outside, the light paints snow red, like the whole city was in flames. But inside, in the shadows of the car, it's all done in blues. I know I'm lying to myself. No amount of painkillers can keep this ache away. No lie can hide it. I'm not really in the backseat of this car. It didn't start in the diner with Alex. It started three years ago in my bedroom. And I haven't left that room since. The killer dead at my feet on the floor.
Michelle lying on the bed. Bullet holes like rubies on her chest. Our baby's cry cut short, the absence of it heavy in the air. That gunshot, like an exclamation mark to end it all, the answer to all my questions, had already rung out a long time ago, even its echoes gone. The gun was fused to my hand from that moment on. That room inside me everywhere I go.

Especially now as the city presses close to the windows of the car, its monstrous heartbeat under the tires. My squinted eyes in the rearview mirror. My hands numb and held awkwardly behind my back. Everything that came after that room is a hopelessmess, a chaotic swirl, rising nausea that tastes like rust in my mouth.
RESUME GAME
This selection loads up the last saved game and let's you jump right back into your previous game session.
TUTORIAL
You can select Tutorial if you want to go through a brief training course on the controls and how to play the game. It's recommended that you try out the Tutorial before jumping into the game.
NEW GAME
This option lets you start a new game session. After selecting a new game, you will need to select the gameplay mode. Different gameplay modes (Fugitive, Hard-Boiled, Dead on Arrival and New York Minute) are explained later in this manual.
LOAD
Opens up the Load Game menu screen. SAVE
Opens up the Save Game menu screen. You can select one of the 10 save game slots to store the current gameplay situation. Saving is only available if you have an existing gameplay session running.
By pressing the Quicksave button, you may Quicksave a game without going to the menus. Hint: It is a good idea to save every now and then to avoid replaying longer stretches in case Max dies. There are 2 Quicksave slots. The latest Quicksave will replace the older of the two quicksaves.
You may also use the Save Menu to store your saved game. To do this, return to the Main Menu and select Save Game. Highlight one of the slots and press button on the slot.
