Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Max Payne - Strategy Guide (Page 04).

     When the door opens, run straight ahead and go through the door 
marked "Block B" to the right.  Run straight ahead past the Beam holding 
up the place in the middle and open up the door for B7.  You are going 
to need the Chemist that is inside so that you can get through the 
Decontamination Airlock.  Now follow the Chemist into the elevator and 
he will push the elevator to make it go back upstairs.  When the door 
opens, follow the Chemist and he will open another door for you.  When 
he goes into the room to the right he will take cover behind the red 
crates.  Shoot out the two mercenaries who are pursuing from the left.  
Then continue to follow the Chemist through the "Laboratories" door.  
Next, he will punch you through so head on into the chamber to the left.  
Then head on through the door.


++++++++++++++
PROJECT VALKYR
++++++++++++++

     When the scene resumes, you can only watch the Chemist die through 
the window glass.  I guess he got what he deserved but not before 
helping you out.  Now head on through the door to the left.  Go through 
the door and make you way to left to go around the fire in the middle.  
Then, head on through the next door which is to the far right.  Hop onto 
the elevator and take it downstairs.  Now take out your Sniper Rifle and 
blow up all the C4 in the room to make all the laser trip wires explode 
and disappear.  Also, do not forget to take out the sentry gun that is 
in the center of the left most wall.  When all the sensors have 
disappeared,  check out the lab terminal that has the Valkyr logo on the 
screen.  Basically here, you'll will find out all about the Valkyr 
Project which was enacted to make infantry soldiers faster and stronger.  
However, the project was supposed to be canceled but it was picked up 
and unauthorized by the mystery witch.  The drop off point was your 
house.  Now, it all starts to make sense.  

     Now you have to get out of this place before the whole complex goes 
boom!  Make your way out by heading to the left and taking the other 
elevator back up.  When the doors open, step out and access the computer 
to the right.  It will reopen the decontamination chamber so enter into 
it.  At this point the countdown will start and you will thirty second 
to get out before the fireworks start.  The door is locked, so to get 
out, shoot out the C4 charges by shooting through the window to the 
left.  This will blow a hole open in the front door and you will be able 
to move ahead.  Then, open the door to the "Security Center" which is to 
the left.  Then, keep running straight ahead and open the door marked 
"Surface Storage" to the right, hop aboard, and ride the elevator up but 
do not stand on the grate.  Now enjoy looking down through that grate as 
the whole place starts to go to pieces!

CHAPTER 4:  BACKSTABBING BASTARD
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

     We meet up with Max in a downtown diner drinking cup after cup of 
coffee.  He gets a message from B.B. and asks Max to meet him at the 
Choir Communications Center at 2:30a.m.  Max figures out that this was 
an inside job, and he know that B.B. wants to finished what he had 
started at Roscoe Street Station.

     One of B.B.'s henchmen will try to run you over, too bad you jump 
and roll out of the way.  B.B. may have gotten away, but you still have 
his henchmen to deal with.  The first thing to do is to shoot dodge to 
the left and take out the two henchmen that are in the distance.  
Remember to go for the head when you can.  Then continue down this path 
and take out the henchman to the right.  Pick up any ammo that they 
happen to drop.  Duck behind the building and wait for the henchmen to 
pursue you.  Then, dive out and shoot the poor schmuck.  Continue 
running straight ahead until you can go to the right path beyond the 
second building.  This path to the right will have a big sign that says 
"Park" so head on down the huge ramp.  When heading on down the ramp, 
gun down the guy at the bottom.  Then, another henchman will roll out 
from the right.  Shoot dodge and take him down in the same manor.  Then, 
take cover behind the crates to the left.  When you are ready, shoot 
dodge to the right and gun down the henchman in the distance straight 
ahead of you.  

     Then you will have to run straight ahead while dodging bullets like 
crazy and take out another henchman that appears.  Now turn your 
attention to the center where you will hear a car screech to the right 
which is the center.  You will have to run, gun, and dodge two more 
thugs.  Do not go through the center of the lot yet.  Instead head to 
the left and hop into the dumpster where you will find some Colt 
Commando Ammo.  Then from the dumpster, run to the left and get all the 
way to the medicine cabinet in the corner where you will find some much 
needed Painkillers, four to be exact.  Now, turn around and run straight 
ahead to head in the next lot.  


++++++++++++++++++
ALIVE AND AT LARGE
++++++++++++++++++

     From here, run straight ahead, shoot dive, aim left and take down 
the henchman waiting in the corner.  Then pick up some various ammo for 
all of your weapons and nail the henchman who start coming up the large 
ramp opposite of this alcove.  Time to head on down the ramp that says 
"Exit Only."  You will have to bullet dive down the ramps and gun down 
two more thugs at the bottom.  Take cover in the left alcove again and 
catch your breath.  Then, shoot dive to the right and then zigzag to the 
left to gun down the two henchmen that continue to empty their clips 
towards you.  After that head for the center of the lot and shoot dive 
and gun the two thugs down like crazy.  Then, make your way to the right 
and defeat the two henchmen that come up from the ramp.

     Next, head down the ramp and when it goes down to the next level to 
the right, head down it too.  When you are down far enough, gun down the 
thugs that rolls in from the right.  Be careful here.  Start running 
towards the gate and nail the guard behind it by shoot dodging again.  
Then run up to the gate and take out your Lead Pipe to smash the lock 
off.  Then re-equip your favorite weapon and push the gate forward.  
When you hear "Go! Go!" take cover behind the poles to the left.  Then 
aim to the right and nail the thug that is shooting at you from the 
right.  Do not forget to pick up the Ingram Ammo behind the poles on the 
left.  Next, turn around and go straight ahead towards the building with 
the 3 on it.  When it breaks to the right shoot dodge and take out the 
henchman behind it.  Also, you will have to gun down three more, one 
behind the teal van, and two in the distance.  Then run ahead, shoot 
dodge straight ahead, and aim to the right to defeat the thugs who rolls 
to the left from behind the crate.  Then immediately shoot dodge to the 
right and aim left to take out the thug in front of the black van to the 
left.  Then, pick up the Colt Commando Ammo that is sitting on the 
crates.  Also, run to the corner to the left to raid the medicine 
cabinet.  Here you will find four more Painkillers.  Now, make a bee 
line for the next parking ramp which is straight ahead and denoted by 
the "Park" sign.    

      
++++++++++++++++++++++
THE NAME OF YOUR ENEMY
++++++++++++++++++++++

     From here, shoot dodge to the left and take out the two henchman 
that are down on the ramp to the right.  Then head on down the ramp and 
hide behind the blue dumpsters.  You will hear a van screech and that 
van will drive into something and explode and take out two henchmen for 
you.  After you hear the screams, run straight ahead, shoot dodge and 
take out the thug behind the white car to the right.  Then dive to the 
left and take out another thugs that shows his mug.  You will also have 
to take out the thugs who tries to pummel you from straight ahead.  This 
is not an easy task at all.  When you have defeated all three men, head 
to the center of the lot and take out the henchman that approaches from 
the northwest.  Use the white car as cover.  After taking down another 
thug, shoot dodge in front of the "Park" sign which is to the right and 
nail the thugs that is hiding behind the red crate on the left.  Before 
going any further, make sure you pick up the Painkiller from the thug 
that you dropped near the elevator.  

     Next head on down to the next lot ramp to the right and get ready 
for more pain as you will have to do the same thing that you did the 
last time.  Bullet dive straight ahead and aim and fire to the right to 
take out the two henchmen.  When you get a little closer, one will pop 
out from the right, you know what to do by now.  Next, creep out from 
the dumpsters on the right to the center.  When you hear the car screech 
back the you know what up if you do not want to be sandwiched!  B.B. 
will show his ugly face.  Make your way into the center and tag the two 
henchman that approach from the right.  Make sure to dodge the grenade 
that they throw at you.  Then from the center, head left and shoot dodge 
like crazy when you start to see the break to the right because you will 
have four henchmen gunning for you.  Get to the four Painkillers that 
are in the medicine cabinet in the corner and B.B. will start to taunt 
you.  Also, one of the henchmen that you have just dropped will supply 
you with the Jackhammer.  Now prepare yourself by turning around and 
running for the "Park" gate and enter the small office on the left to 
pick up the Colt Commando and the Ingram Ammo that is in the corner.  
Finally, engage in battle with B.B. in the center of the lot with your 
Colt Commando in hand.  Shoot dodge like crazy from left to right and 
really keep the heat on him with the Colt Commando.  With enough 
bullets, a couple of Painkillers, and a little bit of luck this 
Backstabbing bastard will done for good.  Also, don't forget to pick up 
the Jackhammer Shotgun that he drops.  

     After, his demise, pick up the pay phone when it starts to ring in 
the center of the lot.  On the other end will be Alfred Wooden and he 
wants you to pay him a visit at the Asguard Building.  Here he will give 
up the name of your enemy.


++++++++++++++++++++++++
IN THE LAND OF THE BLIND
++++++++++++++++++++++++
  
     Wooden will be waiting for you outside the building as promised and 
the others will be waiting and are anxious to see you.  He will also 
give you a tour of the building.  He will then introduce you to your 
colleagues which are part of the Inner Circle.  He will then fill in the 
gaps by providing you with the details about Project Valhalla.  They 
need you to take her out and afterwards all the charges will be dropped 
and you will be taken care of.  However, the Killer Suits come barging 
in and kills everyone in the room...or so it seems.

     You jump out the window and make it out safely.  now head down the 
small corridor to the left and then head to the left again.  Pick up the 
Painkiller at the end that is on top of the crate and then turn around 
and run down the corridor.  Be careful though, those laser trip wires 
are back.  To get by them take out the C4 on the right from a safe 
distance with shots from your Colt Commando.  Then, when the way is 
cleared, nail the mercenary that approaches from the right.  Next, 
follow the corridor as it breaks to the right.  pick up the Grenade on 
the crate to the right and take out the two mercenaries at the top of 
the stairs by dive left and aiming right.  take the Colt Commando Ammo 
from the rack and head on up the stairs and go through the door.  

     Next, head on down the corridor to the right and take out the 
soldier on top of the balcony above you to the right.  Now head on 
through the door by pushing the green button to the right.  Search this 
room and pick up the four Painkillers and the Shotgun Shells to the 
left.  Then look at the monitors and you will find out that Wooden has 
survive.  Now head on out the door to the left, shoot dive, aim right, 
and peg the two approaching mercenaries.  Continue on down the corridor 
and take out the mercenary who sticks his body out from the left.  Then 
hang a left and go through the exit door with bullets flying so that 
they hit the mercenary when you come through.  Pick up the Molotov 
Cocktails that he drops and continue to the left.  When you see the 
mercenary emerge from the left dispose of him and make your way up the 
stairs to the right which are guarded by two mercenaries.  When you make 
it to the top head up the next flight of steps to the right but be 
careful and watch out for the grenade that get thrown here.  Also, watch 
out for the mercenary who tries to nail you from behind from the 
elevator.  Then, tag the guy on the stairwell as you are head up them 
steps.  When you get to the top of the steps, head to the left and go 
through the door that has the green button.

 
+++++++++++++++++++
PROVIDING A SERVICE     
+++++++++++++++++++

     When you enter this area, walk to the right and go into the last 
cubicle.  Here you will find three Painkillers in the medicine cabinet.  
Then turn around and head on down the corridor but throw a grenade near 
where it breaks right to disarm the laser trip wires.  Then head on 
through to the right and get ready to squeeze that trigger when the 
mercenary in front of you drops that fake wall.  Continue on down the 
path and when it break to the right, you will have to deal with another 
mercenary to the left.  Then fire at the corridor which is a little bit 
to the left cubicle and the mercenary from the right will trip the laser 
trip wire.  You will not see him do it, but you will see and hear the 
explosion.  Now check out and listen to the news broadcast by pushing 
the radio beside you.  People are talking and saying that you are 
providing a great service to the city.  Now run ahead and go left to 
grab the M79 ammo that is sitting in this cubicle.  Then turnaround and 
run forward down the corridor and go right when it breaks right.

     Then, head on through the door on the left and take out the 
mercenary who is patrolling the area when he come out from the right 
down a little ways.  Also, nail the other mercenary who hears the 
commotion when he appears from the left.  Now, continue on down the 
corridor and head through the door on the left.  You will be in some 
kind of office.  pick up the video tape that is lying on the desk.  
Nicole had blackmailed the Inner Circle with this tape.  Remember Candy 
Dawn?  Anyway, Max will take this as collateral...just in case.  Head on 
into the next room where Wooden has left you a present on the desk.  It 
is the blueprints for the Aesir Corporation Building.  This will come in 
handy later.  Next, head on into the next room to the right and check 
the cabinet in the left hand corner.  Here you will find a Painkiller, 
Colt Commando and Desert Eagle Ammo.  finally, head on through the next 
door to the right. 


+++++++++++++++++
A SCI-FI FORTRESS
+++++++++++++++++

     In here, you will be on top of the balcony.  Immediately shoot 
dodge to the left and take out the mercenary who tries to stop you.  
Then pick up his Colt Commando Ammo and head on through the door 
straight ahead.  Next, gun down the mercenary when he appears at the 
bottom of the first flight of steps.  Pull out a Molotov Cocktail from 
your arsenal and take out the C4 on the right that is connected to the 
laser trip wires at a safe distance.  Than continue on down the steps 
and enter the second door to the right.  Shoot dive through the door and 
then take out the mercenary right when you see him.  Then, head back 
down the stairs all the way to the bottom and head on through the door 
on the right.  Then nail the mercenary who appears from the left.  

     Then go back to the stairway and go through the door that was on 
the left and head on down the stairs by shoot dodging and aiming down 
and two the left to dispose of the two mercenaries who are talking about 
Butch and the Sundance Kid.  Then pick up the Grenade that is sitting on 
the crate to the left before going through the door that was at the 
bottom of the steps.  When you open the door and go through, pepper the 
mercenary who is in between the crates with some firepower of your own.  
Then, when you get to the crates, throw a grenade to the end of the 
corridor to take out the laser trip wires.  then go to the right when 
the corridor dictates it but take out the C4 laser trip wires on the 
right before doing so.  Finally, enter through the door on the right.


++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
CHAPTER 6:  BYZANTINE POWER GAME
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

     Here, you will be in a library type atmosphere.  Head on down the 
stairs to the right and take out the mercenary who is trying to do you 
in.  Then, tag the two mercenaries to the left in between the shelves.  
Next up, nail the mercenary who approaches from the back of the room.  
Then when the room is cleared, check out the files that are on the desk 
where you first walked in.  Then you will want to chuck a grenade at 
each row of files to see them crashing down like dominoes.  Your next 
move will be to take out the two  mercenaries who are firing upon you 
from above on the right hand side of the room.  After dismantling them, 
jump up onto the dominoes on the left and jump onto the ramp in the 
background.  You will have to shoot out one more mercenary that appears 
above you.  then head on up the ramp and go all the way around the 
parameter of the room via the balcony.  Run like the wind through the 
door and head up the steps and dive and grill the mercenary who just 
chucked a grenade at you.  

     Then before heading up the next flight of steps, go behind them and 
scope out the medicine cabinet to obtain four more Painkillers.  Then, 
make your way up the next flight of steps and head through the door 
which is past the soda machine to the right.  When you enter this 
library, you will have to take down the four mercenaries out that repel 
downwards from the ceiling.  After disposing of all four, steal their 
weapons and ammo and head up the steps that are straight ahead.  Then 
make your way around the parameter to the door on the other side.  


+++++++++++++++
NOTHING TO LOSE
+++++++++++++++

     You will then appear in another hallway.  Take down the two killer 
suits that come out of the door on the left side.  Then head on through 
the door that is straight ahead of you.  When you enter through here, 
you will have to dismantle two more killer suits in this conference 
room.  Then, pick up the Sniper Ammo that is on the table in the left 
corner.  Next, head on through the door that is opposite of the soda 
machine.  then shoot dodge to the right and take out the approaching 
killer suit.  Keep going around the parameter and bullet dive straight 
ahead and aim left when you see the killer suit in your sights.  Next, 
head on through the exit door.

     When in the stairwell make a quick right and wait at the top of the 
stairs.  Pick off the three mercenaries as they propel from the ceiling 
right in front of you.  Continue on down the stairs and go through the 
door at the bottom of the stairs.  Head on through the corridor and when 
you see the opening in the center aim right and pick off the mercenary 
who is across the way.  Then continue on down the corridor and when it 
breaks left go left and head on through the door.  Travel around the 
parameter of this circle and pick up the Jack Hammer Ammo sitting on a 
bench to the left along the way.  Then, make your way through the exit 
door and head on down the steps again.  


+++++++++++++
CLEAN UP DUTY
+++++++++++++

     Head on down to the bottom of the stairs and before going in, 
listen to the killer suits talk about the CIA and the FBI.  Then shoot 
dodge forward and drill the two men who are sitting pretty on the right.  
Pick up their weapons and their Painkillers and then head on through the 
exit door in the left corner.  You will then engage in a battle against 
four Killer Suits.  To win this battle keep moving and when you get 
close enough to a Killer Suit, shoot dodge like crazy and make every 
shot count.  You will have to deal with one or two mercenaries as well.  
When nobody is left standing, collect their weapons and ammo and head on 
through the exit door.


+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
CHAPTER 7:  AN EYE FOR AN EYE
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

     Max Payne believes in the old adage, "An eye for an eye."  He 
cruises around the city to let the rage inside of him build up.  He know 
what he has to do.  He finally reaches the Aesir building and parks the 
stolen wheels in front of the building.  He has a bullet with Nicole 
Horne's name on it.  

     Equip your Jackhammer and head on through the metal detectors to 
alert the mercenaries to your presence.  Then, shoot dodge straight 
ahead and aim to the left.  Let the bullets fly and take out them to the 
left.  Then cruise the corridor to the left and shoot out the steel to 
the top of the right corridor so that the killer suits can nail you with 
the M79's that there packing.  Now set up shop all the way in the back 
to the left with your Sniper Rifle.  From here, it is child's play.  
Crouch, zoom in on the target and pull the trigger.  Be sure to take out 
all three that are high and mighty.  Then re-equip your Jackhammer and 
continue down the long corridor hugging the wall on the right side.  
When you see the path way to the left near the elevators, shoot dodge to 
the left and take out the two approaching killer suits.  Next, pick up 
their Colt Commandos and Painkillers and head on through the doorway to 
the left.

     You will see that you are underneath the steps.  Go around and look 
up at the stairs that you will have to go up.  There is a laser trip 
wire in the way.  Take out your Colt Commando and peg the C4 to get rid 
of the laser trip wires and then make your way up the stairs.  When you 
get to the top, face like you are going to head up the next flight of 
stairs and shoot dodge to the left to take out the mercenary at the top 
of the second flight of stairs.  Then, when you get halfway up the 
stairs, shoot the C4 to the left to dismantle the laser trip wires.  
When you get to the top of the stairs, shoot dive straight ahead and 
nail the mercenary straight ahead who take cover behind the bench.  Then 
shoot dodge to the left and take out the mercenary who is near the 
elevator doors.  Then collect their ammo and Grenades and make your way 
to the left which is to the right of the elevators and follow the 
corridors as it bends to the right and at the end of it, you will find a 
medicine cabinet with two Painkillers inside.  Now backtrack and to the 
stairs and head up the next flights of steps but do not progress until 
you take out the laser trips wires.  The C4 is to the left this time.  
Finally go around the parameter of the top floor and peg the killer 
suits that comes out of the door on the right.  Finally, take his Colt 
Commando and head through the door on the right.


+++++++++++++++
STONE COLD DEAD
+++++++++++++++

     In this area, you will have to go through a series of moving  laser 
trip wires and here is how to get through it.  When the first wire is 
all the way down, jump over it. When the second trip wires merge into 
one and are all the way down, jump over it.  When the third wire is all 
the way up walk over it, stand still and nail the mercenary with the 
Jackhammer.  The fourth set of wires follow the same pattern as the 
second, when the two merge at the bottom jump over them.  To cross the 
fifth wire, wait until it goes all the way up and then walk under it.  
Finally, when the sixth and final wire is all the way down, jump over 
it.  Really annoying if you screw up.  When you emerge from this small 
corridor, look ahead and to the left and you will see some mercenaries 
that you have to deal with near the elevators.  After you clip both of 
them, take their Colt Commandos and run straight ahead parallel with the 
elevators on the right.  Follow the corridor as it bends to the right 
and pick up the four Painkillers at the end of it.  Then backtrack back 
to the elevators where you will have to gun down two more mercenaries 
that join the fray.  Then pick up the Painkillers and the Colt Commando 
and go on the elevator to the right.

     Here you will have a meeting with Mona Sax who is suppose to kill 
you but does not kill nice guys.  However, Mona Sax will be shot and 
killed by the three killer suits that are behind you.  Get ready to 
shoot dodge to the left and aim to the right.  This private army of 
Horne's just keeps on coming.  After disposing of all three, pick up 
their Colt Commandos and then head on up in the elevator.  However, this 
time there is a catch.  There are five laser trip wires that have to be 
dismantled in the elevator shaft as the elevator is going up.  Have your 
Dual Ingrams equipped and push the button to go up.  Aim your sights at 
the C4 and when you are in medium range grill it.  Here is the order of 
where to shoot them but if you miss, bang your dead.  The order is left, 
right, left, left, right.  

     After you make it to the top shoot dodge behind the killer suits to 
the left and grill them.  Then set your sights high and pick off the two 
that are perched on top of the balcony.  Pick up the fallen killer 
suits' Colt Commandos and head on through the door to the right of where 
you got off the elevator.  Then, take out the killer suit in the control 
room and be sure to grab the Painkillers from the medicine cabinet on 
the right.  Then push the button on the far computer straight ahead and 
you will gain access to the main frame.  Then you will have to gun down 
three killer suits that come out from the outside.  After dismantling 
these three goons hop on the elevator in the middle to the right.


++++++++++++++
TAKE YOUR PICK  
++++++++++++++

     When you make it to the bottom and the elevator stops, hop on the 
elevator to the left before the helicopter can nail you with its chain 
gun and take that elevator down to the next level.  When the elevator 
stops, open the door and shoot dodge forward, aim to the right, and let 
the bullets fly so that you can take out the two killer suits.  Then, 
look behind you, shoot dodge, squeeze the trigger to take out the other 
killer suit.  Then, make your way out from behind the wall and in 
towards the center where you will have to bullet dive and take out 
another killer suits.  Then turn your attention to the balcony on the 
right and nail the killer suit who is residing up there.  Next, take out 
the four blue pillars that are near the elevators and all of Horne's 
locks will be off line.  Now you will have to clip three mercenaries 
that come out of the elevator to the left.  Then, pick up the various 
ammo and any Painkillers that were left by the guards and take the 
elevator to the left all the way up!

     When the elevator stops, get off and make your way to the stairs in 
the center.  From the bottom of the stairs, shoot dodge to the left and 
to the right and dismantle all three mercenaries before heading up the 
stairs.  When you get to the top of the stairs, you are going to have to 
deal with a mercenary to the left and three mercenaries to the right.  
Kill them like you have killed all the others that have tried before 
them.  Then pick up any weapons, Painkillers, or ammo that has fallen 
and make your way to where the first mercenary to the right came from.  
Head on through the board room and check out Horne's personal computer 
in the center of the room.  When you are finished, head on through the 
door to the left.


++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
CHAPTER 8:  A WARRIOR'S HEAVEN
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++                      

     After recounting the whole debacle it comes down to this.  Nicole 
Horne thinks it is ridiculous that he has made it this far.  She states 
that Max will be dead by the time the police get here.  You are here to 
prove her wrong.  Have your Colt Commando ready and take out the first 
guy in the corner straight ahead of you when the gate is lifted.  Then 
drill the second killer suit when he tries to pursue you.  Finally, to 
take out the last two, shoot dodge towards the door that Nicole just 
escaped to, aim left, and pelt these two until they fall over.  Now the 
hard part, the shields will be lifted from the windows and that 
helicopter will be back.  Take cover behind the statue and crouch.  Do 
not move until the helicopter uses up a lot of its ammunition and gets 
bored with you and takes off.  Next, stand in the corner where those two 
killer suits just were and wait for the back up in the from of two 
killer suits comes flying through the door.  When you see them, gun them 
down with a M79.  Threat eliminated.  
   
     Re-equip the Colt Commando and head on through the door to the left 
and then push the button on the right door.  The elevator door will open 
from the left and a killer suit will emerge.  Shoot dodge backwards and 
let him have it.  Then, pick up the Painkiller from him and head on 
through the right door.  Goto the right of this room and head out the 
glass door.  Then look to the left and you will have to jump over the 
railing on to the scaffold.  Be very careful when doing it because it is 
a long way down.  Then, run like there's no tomorrow across it and hop 
over the railing on the other side to the left.  If you take a few shots 
from the helicopter, use a Painkiller.  Head in through the glass door 
and then go through the door on the right.

A ONE-WAY DEMON RIDE
++++++++++++++++++++

     From here, shoot dodge to the right and aim straight ahead to 
dispose of the killer suit.  Pick up the Colt Commando and the Pain 
killer that he drops and continue up the stairs.  When you get to the 
top of the stairs, shoot dodge to the left and nail those two killer 
suits who are hiding behind the crates.  Pick up the Ingram, Ingram 
Ammo, and the Colt Commando and drill the two killer suits that appear 
straight ahead from the elevator on the right.  Then, run up to where 
you shot them, turn around, and then grill the man who approaches from 
the door to the left.  Next, go through the door and bullet dive to the 
left and take on the two killer suits he are behind the counter.  Then 
open up the door to the right to take out the next killer suit.  Pick up 
the Painkiller and the Colt Commando Ammo and make your way around to 
the next green lit door, open it, and shoot dodge and nail the two 
killer suits who are cowering behind the crates.  Pick up the Ingram and 
Colt Commando Ammo and head through the door to the right.  

     When it breaks right, go into another shoot dodge and blast the 
killer suit that comes out of the elevator on the right hand side.  
Next, dive towards the stairs and gun down the killer suits that rolls 
out from the right.  Grab the Painkiller and the Ingram Ammo from him 
and then head up the stairs.  When you get to the top of the stairs, 
drill the one suit that attacks from the right.  Keep shoot dodging like 
crazy because the other three will come to you from the left.  When they 
get in your sights, take them down.  Also, remember to use them 
Painkillers.  When all the killer suits have been defeated, pick up the 
Painkillers and any ammo from them and head towards the green world map.  
Push the button on the computer in the center, and the door to the left 
will open up.  Head on through it.

PAIN AND SUFFERING
++++++++++++++++++

     Before heading up the steps, equip your Dual Berettas and then make 
your way up the longs steps.  When you get about half way up, Nicole 
will have a gift for you.  She will try to throw a grenade at you but it 
will most likely sail over your head.  When you get to the rooftop, you 
will see a small cutscene of Payne giving chase and firing his Dual 
Berettas at Nicole but his shots will miss.  Also, the tower in the 
middle is shaky and there are wires that are holding it in place.  
Because of the high wind, two of the wires have snapped off.  Now, when 
you regain control of Payne, take out your Sniper Rifle and aim at the 
first wire right in front of you.  Hit the weakpoint and make the wire 
snap off.  This will trigger a cutscene of Nicole Horne boarding the 
helicopter.  However, it cannot take off for a minute until the wind 
dies down.

     Next, when you regain control of Payne, immediately switch to the 
M79 and nail the killer suits if they try to get near you by positioning 
yourself  just in front of the wall.  When you see one shoot because it 
will usually take out two killer suits, the other two will try to get 
close to use but when you see them, let off another two shots to take 
them out as well.  Now at these point, equip your Sniper Rifle and hop 
up onto the little platform in front of the first wire that you have 
just shot.  It is to the left of the first wire.  When you see it, 
crouch down and sniper the weak point on the last wire.  Finally, re-
equip your Colt Commando or Dual Berettas, look up at the red tower and 
shoot off about 20 or 30 rounds into it.  This will trigger the ending 
cutscene.  Congratulations are in order, you have just beaten Max Payne.  
Sit back, watch, and enjoy the ending!!!
