Max Payne Wiki
AARGH!... Police Brutality...

Vinnie Gognitti, screaming in pain dealt by Max Payne

Police Brutality is the seventh chapter of Part I in Max Payne.

Plot[]

Max chases after Vinnie by jumping onto a moving train going in the same direction as the one Vinnie jumped onto. When Vinnie's train slowed down, he jumped off it onto an adjacent rooftop and continued to run. Max jumped off his train onto the same rooftop - Vinnie had already put some distance between himself and Max, firing at him from the rooftop across the street and continuing to run away. Max continues to chase Vinnie and encounters multiple mobsters and a police helicopter on the rooftops and chases Vinnie through an apartment complex. A TV in an apartment Max was passing through had a news report in which Lt. Jim Bravura was giving his statement on the progress on capturing Max. Max dismisses it, albeit with a grain of salt. Vinnie runs into a dead end and tries to kill Max, but fails and Max interrogates him about Lupino's whereabouts. Vinnie resists, at first. Max, holding his Beretta at hard contact with Vinnie's temple, pulls the trigger; the gun is jammed. Vinnie starts begging for his life and says that Lupino is at Ragna Rock, his nightclub. The chapter concludes with Max dropping his jammed Beretta and walking away, sparing Vinnie's life.

Trivia[]

  • On the PC version of the game, during the showdown with Vinnie, on the rooftop, if the player turns around and walks towards the ledge, a basketball court traversed earlier in the chapter can be seen from above. The player can jump onto the opposite ledge and below the fire escape onto the metal fence and down to the ground to acquire a Desert Eagle. The player can then walk through one of the metal doors. Behind it is a cellar with plenty of Molotov Cocktails and a few Grenades and Painkillers, and a poster "Dopefish Lives!". Walking up the stairs and through another metal door will lead the player to an area below the stairs, where Vinnie is located. The detailed instructions can be seen in the Gallery above.
