Max Payne 3 continues the journey of the titular protagonist and revolves around the controversial decision of him leaving the American city of New York and continuing his life in the violence-filled streets of São Paulo, Brazil.
It's also the first game from Rockstar to be developed by all of the company's global studios in collaboration, which would pave the way for the development cycles of their future games.

Beer Bottle#
Placeholder texture for a beer bottle. 
Street Sign#
One of the street sign textures found in multiple stages has some unused space. 
Grand Theft Auto IV Leftovers#
Found in the textures for the Hoboken Cemetery level is crnershop1l, an out of place texture left over most likely from Grand Theft Auto V due to the Korean writing present and it being more associated with the Little Seoul district. In the final, none of the textures match up with that shop. 
vehicle_generic_detail3 seems to be another leftover from GTA IV. 
A LOD texture sheet left over from GTA IV. 
The file containing weapon icons also has the fist icon from GTA IV. 
Camera HUD elements from a cutscene in GTA IV.
GTA San Andreas Leftovers#
Vehicle textures from GTA San Andreas.

Debug Menu#
The dev menu was accidentally activated by one update and discovered in late-2015. It can be opened by using a controller and pressing the Left Stick and Right Stick at the same time. The menu has selectable levels including the test ones, allowing you to freely explore around the maps without scripts. Some levels if selected, will crash the game.
It was no longer activated in recent updates. To restore the developer menu, use the mod in the video embed.
