Trivia
- Coincidentally, "the mystery hag" mentioned in Candy Dawn's diary is later revealed as Nicole Horne, who used Candy to blackmail Alfred Woden.
- The title is an homage to actor Humphrey Bogart, star of many 1940s noir films, from which Max Payne takes many of its stylistic cues. Payne's explanation that he is "playing it Bogart" means he is conducting his investigation with extreme self-confidence and acting "as though he was supposed to be there," which describes the methodology of many of Bogart's characters.
- Max refers to Rico Muerte as "a regular Keyser Soze," which is a reference to the Keyser Söze character from the 1995 film The Usual Suspects. This is the first of two references to the film in the game; the second reference can be overheard in the chapter In the Land of the Blind when two Mercenaries are debating about best movie endings.
- Past Rico Muerte's room is a cracked wooden door which can be shot through. Once inside climb out onto the ledge and walk across to the next room. Inside the room is a dead man holding a gun while lying on the floor with a stake driven into him, surrounded by syringes of Valkyr. Some molotovs and painkillers can also be found in the room. The man wrote "Buff" in his own blood before dying, which is most likely a reference to the American TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
