Title: Max Payne heading for PS2.....
Post by: jiggs on April 18, 2001, 09:48:20 PM
This could be the bomb the PS2 is waiting for. Its been almost three years in development(for the PC) and just looks awesome. This should be another big hit  for PS2.

I believe that the DC version was canned some time ago, but if I\'m wrong I\'ll be corrected post haste.

from DR: "Although the screens we\'re showing today are from the PC version, we\'re told that
               the PS2 game will not only look every bit as good, but also include effects and features only                  possible on the Sony hardware."

I just saw some vids of the game on the telly yesterday, and it looks so damn cool. It\'s made by a finnish team ya know :D :D There have been some articles about the game in finnish game mags, and the level of detail the makers are putting into the game is insane.

The textures in the game look absolutely amazing, especially on the clothing and characters. I have my doubts about the PS2 version... but hoping for the best!

Well, I really doubt the PS2 version would look much better. I mean, the resolution on a TV vs. high res on a good monitor... The PC version is bound to look better IMO (with a good PC of course).
Title: OK

It\'s not a secret that PC games look better and I think that Max PaynePS2 doesn\'t look like the Pc version

Where have you seen PS2 pics? I\'m pretty sure they don\'t exist yet. :)

Max Payne is on top of my waiting-list, really. It\'s being made by a finnish developer named Remedy.

Here\'s some pics ( of the PC version ):

The only thing that bugs me is that Max has that stupid face in every shot - be it detailed or not :)

Just look :laughing:

I never knew there was a ps2-version in development! Now even I will have an opportunity to get the game... I just hope that it\'ll survive to the shelves, and won\'t be canned like the DC -version...

first off that game is comming to the XBOX, which means those pc graphics, amazing as they are will be greatly improved for the xbox version. SO instead of me buying the PC version, i will wait for the xbox one.

and this has what to do with the price of tea in China

this discussion is about the PS2 version of max Payne with a hint of why the PC version might look better than the PS2 one.

Lets not announce our Xbox BS cause no one really cares

If I buy it, Ill uy it for PS2! :)

And I hope it will look better on PS2.
Cuz those Max Payne screens arent exacly mindblowing if you ask me.

Come on Fast, MP looks fantastic.

I haven\'t heard anything about an Xbox version though? I thought it had only been announced for PC and PS2. That\'s not to say it won\'t ever be releashed on Xbox though..... But those screen kick @ss! It looks at least as good as, or better than anything I\'ve seen on PS2. But high resolution doesn\'t exactly make it worse. :)

Sadly I doubt the PS2 will be able to handle the game\'s textures. (I hope so though) ..

And Joyda, those shots are extremely old. Max Payne doesn\'t have that funky face anymore.

ports suck

 Using that theory, the PC versions looks more promising than the PS2 version.

Yes, I know those are very old - but there was no newer pics up on the official site - and I think no new pics have been even released, nor leaked. I just wanted to post those pics because the face LOOKED really funny ;)

Samwise: Yes it looks good. But not fantastic. I have seen better looking games on PC, like U2, SoF ect.
Havent seen the video though, so maybe it looks better in motion. :)

Its just another Half Life of Des Eux (Cant remember the name) clone to me :(

SoF doesn\'t look nowhere this good.... well, not IMO. In fact I haven\'t really seen many games that rival Max Payne. Except perhaps Doom III and Unreal 2.
Title: Max Payne heading for PS2.....
Post by: fastson on April 20, 2001, 10:23:15 AM
Im sorry Samwise!
But I forgot to fill in a 2 after SoF :)
I mean SoF2 almost looks as good. :D

Max Payne reminds me of Hitman. Hmm..


MGS2 is still one of the best looking games. Right after FF10 :)
