an imaginary amount of time refering to how fast people from new york city (not new york state) do things. the time differences of new york city and the rest of the world is the reason an average yorkie can't survive outside their city for more than 4 days.

1. A NEW YORK MINUTE has exactly the same length like every other minute in the World. What gives the expression its meaning is the AMOUNT OF ACTIVITY you can squeeze into a standard minute. Simple: when you are in New York, more things seem to happen in a minute than elsewhere.
2. it is NOT a time mode of Max Payne 2, but the tagline of the games atmosphere. duh!
