You are probably thinking of Max Payne - http://www.maxpayne.com
(warning - site requires Flash)
"Max Payne is a man with nothing to lose in the violent, cold
urban night. A fugitive undercover cop framed for murder, and
now hunted by cops and the mob. Max is a man with his back
against the wall, fighting a battle he cannot hope to
win..."
Reminds me a bit of that old David Letterman gag with Bruno
Kirby -
"He's a cop...on the edge!"
