This gen devs would have to actually redo parts of the program to fit the Cell architeture right, develop way better engines to work multiplat, reasign many of what usually are core CPU and GPU tasks to one of the SPEs, test a lot more to find the best they can take from the machine with their code, work with smaller (through faster) XDR Main RAM while organizing the video data to go to dedicated VRAM (256MB GDDR3). Last gen optimizing games for multiple consoles was almost as easy as set configurations for a PC game. There is a reason, Cell architeture isn't like PC. PS3 fans will do damage control in response to anything bad about PS3 you can never believe their damage control SDF articles that follow bad PS3 news or PS3 fanboy articles leading up to an gaming event etc. I see the trend is changing once again to the way it was.ĭevs are starting to develop simultaneously again due to the fierce competition with other developers allowing them to get their best work out at the cost of different quality variants across platforms yet not held back by one platform across the board. Well the PS3 version was already proven to be inferior most often if the game is inferior in a demo comparison there is a reason one version is inferior and will be reflected in the final game.ĭevs struggle with the PS3 so they started to cater to the lowest common denominator(PS3) using PS3 as lead so the PS3 would never have to struggle with the 360's advantages by default(despite PS3 being the lead in some games the 360 versions always matched or where/are superior). So if you're looking for a title where you can run around and shoot 'em up gangster style, then Mafia 2 might be up your alley.Niceguywii60 4584d ago (Edited 4584d ago ) Although they didn't really give you the capability of roaming around, it still made me want to play more of the game. So besides all the shenanigans the Mafia 2 demo was pretty good, but it was too short for my taste. It's like when the King and I were there their staff had us wait in an unofficial line waiting to see the Mafia 2 game, along with a sneak peek at Civilization V (another game that looked amazing, but couldn't get any pictures or recordings of that game due to them being so secretive.) The issue I felt with this demo was that 2K went a little to far of keeping things Secret Squirrel. I also pissed off the cops really easily, which is good because it shows that the police in Mafia 2 are a little bit smarter in the A.I. It seems that the driving is very touchy, but I did have fun slamming those old big-assed cars into one another. The movements are pretty good, but sometimes it does take a little bit to get used to how to maneuver the character around in third-person mode. The graphics are a hell of a lot better then the first game from the look of the demo. The Mafia 2 demo is set up so you can run around for a little bit to check out the area. (I love this video! It will make you laugh, unless your a vegan, then sucks to be you!) When the King and I were at the PAX East we were lucky to play the game, but of course we got screwed because it was at the end of the day of the convention, so we got kicked out before we could finish the demo. Second I have been waiting a long time for this sequel to come out (I believe I found out about it back in 2007, so I was wondering why it took so long to get to this point.) But it's finally here, yet it seemed that 2K Games wasn't giving people the chance to really play the game before its release date. Video Games "Mafia 2" Demo Too Short For Its Own Goodįirst things first: I loved the first Mafia game.
