Information about the NY Minute timer in Max Payne 3

Last Updated: May 31, 2023

Question: I keep running out of time in NY Minute. How does time actually work in this mode?

Question: Does the clock keep running in NY Minute during cut-scenes, bullet cams, and other instances where the player is not in active control?

Answer: Time is added to your clock as enemies are taken out.  Kills are worth 3 seconds, and headshots are worth 5 seconds.  Bullet Time reduces the timer's progression to correspond to the slowdown.  If you choose to restart you will continue from the last reached checkpoint with a clock timer of 1:00:00.

The timer is paused during bullet cams and blendouts. It is paused but not displayed during cutscenes.
