just got max payne for ps2
« on: January 11, 2002, 02:06:11 PM »
i havent played it yet, but watch a guy playing it for 30 mins, i havent seen the pc version so cant compare...i saw no slowdown what so ever, he said there is a slight bit, similar to red faction, its gone in a second....the bit he noticed it on the most was the dock..havent been there so cannot compare


i could of got this on pc, but id rather play in my room on a comfy chair, rather that at a desk


from what i saw it looked sweet, ill tell more tomorrow once ive played it for a while!!!!

No the controls are great once you get used to them. It took me a little while, but once you have the hang of it. It\'s a very fun game to play. Controls aren\'t as bad as everyone makes them out to be. It\'s got the exact same control scheme as Halo on X-Box, and I haven\'t heard anyone say it\'s hard to control.

I disagree..I think the controls suck either way. IMO, its jus a matter of getting used to them, liking isnt an option for me :)

well ive played it for a while and its good, not great, theres small amounts of slowdown, controls are same as timesplitters, when in slow mo dive, im finding it a bit hard to target accurately, but im getting used to it, seems good, but only thing i dont like is i get a bit of action then have to wait for the story to load, watch it, its not that i dont like story lines, it that i get into a bit of action, stop, watch a clip, storyline unfold, astion, stop etc!!



i love listening to the gangsters talking to each other, untill i feel them with lead

year old PC at that price should be able to run it.....

and for that price you payed it should , remember you can trun down the detail to fit your PC power.

will have to rent it, just to blast it out of my speakers :)

PC version is v good, even better with Kung Fu mod.

Don\'t be put off by hefty specs on the box, I can run it well on P111 450, 256 RAM and geforce2.

I ran it on a P3-800, 384mb ram and a TNT2!
On lowest detail of course but it still looked good to me.
Wicked game.
