Hoboken is a city in the state of New Jersey, United States of America. It is possibly located near the Payne Residence .
By late 2003, Max Payne resided in an apartment in the city.
Later that 8 years, while "drunk on self-pity" at Walton's Bar, Max was harassed by Anthony DeMarco's son, Tony and his henchmen for days, insulting him about his past, including disrespectful comments about his wife. On one fateful day, Max reunites with a presumably old friend, Raul Passos after he chased off the men, who came from Brazil to recruit Max for bodyguarding a rich family. Although refusing, the two shared a few drinks before Tony returned to confront the men. After Tony strikes a woman across the face, Max kills Tony. His father sends hitmen after Max, but Max and Raul Passos successfully escape Hoboken and head to São Paulo, Brazil.
Hoboken in Max Payne consists of mid-ruse run-down or abandoned tenement buildings.
Behind the scenes[]
- In the comic "After the Fall", Max Payne is shown to take a bus from Hoboken to the Golgotha Cemetery. However, it is unknown if the graveyard is located within the limits of the city or somewhere outside of it. It was likely not a long distance away from Max's Hoboken apartment as him and Passos travel there sometime during the same day.
- Assuming Michelle and Rose Payne were buried in the mentioned cemetery because it was in close proximity to the Payne Residence, the 1998 Payne family home could also be located close to or in Hoboken. Both locations are in N.J.
