Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Late Goodbye Song Cues:
    1. In Part 2, Chapter 4, stand at the bottom of a staircase. A black-suit enemy at the top may whistle the tune of "Late Goodbye" by "Poets of the Fall". This is not guaranteed.
  2. 2
    In Part 3, Chapter 6, a Cleaner may be heard singing "Late Goodbye" by "Poets of the Fall" while scrubbing a wall.
  • Piano & Max Payne Theme:
    1. In Part 1, Chapter 7, you can play the piano that two Cleaners are playing. Ensure the lid does not fall off. Max Payne will play the theme at normal speed the first time and at a faster speed the second time.
    2. In Part 3, Chapter 7, in the second room after the falling-ceiling-room, you can play the piano. Ensure the lid does not fall off. Max Payne will play the theme at normal speed the first time and at a faster speed the second time.
  • Mona Sax's Hidden Details:
    1. In Part 1, Chapter 3, during the Hospital Morgue sequence, Mona Sax's body is revealed on a sliding bed, showing nearly her entire left breast. A cheat allows playing as a nude Mona model.
    2. In Part 1, Chapter 6, Mona Sax's breasts are nearly fully visible in the ending (cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically)) of the level.
    3. In Part 2, Chapter 1, the beginning Graphic Novel shows nearly Mona Sax's entire left breast and nipple.
    4. In Part 3, Prologue, after meeting the "Payne's", Mona Sax is seen showering. If you use shootdodge forward in time before being transported, you can see Mona Sax's entire naked body from behind.
  • Falling from Great Height Trigger:
    1. In Part 2, Chapter 2, halfway through the level, in a long corridor on the left, a thug is camping near a hole in the ground. Use tables to get close. Emerge from (cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects)) and shootdodge towards him, aiming for his left side to kill him. Ensure you fall through the hole during the resulting death-sequence (cutscene). You will land two floors down, still alive. This may require multiple attempts.
    2. In Part 2, Chapter 6, after crossing the bridge, you will encounter four thugs. Two will approach; kill them. The other two will camp on a staircase platform. Kill one, then charge the other. As you get close, shootdodge towards the gap in the middle of the staircase, ensuring you kill him. This triggers a death-sequence. The source text cuts off here, but implies a similar falling mechanic.
    • Tips
    • The whistling of "Late Goodbye" in Part 2, Chapter 4 is not guaranteed to occur.
    • Ensure the piano lid remains intact in Part 1, Chapter 7 and Part 3, Chapter 7 for Max Payne to play the theme.
    • The nude Mona Sax model is accessible via a cheat code.
    • The falling sequences in Part 2, Chapter 2 and Part 2, Chapter 6 require precise timing and positioning to trigger the death-sequence and subsequent fall.
