Digital Foundry: Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne - Retro PC Time Capsule vs PS2 - Can Consoles Cope?

[Gamernyc78]

Little Nostalgia and we've been talking about combat in ganes so this retro analysis is perfectly timed.

The Retro PC Time Capsule is back - this time taking us all the way back to 2003, the year of the Radeon 9800 Pro... and Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne! In this video, Alex plays the Remedy classic on period appropriate PC hardware, while John attempts to keep up on the PlayStation 2 rendition of the game. The PC's inordinately more powerful, so can the console keep up?

2003, the year of the Radeon 9800 Pro...

I bought two 2003, to build two exactly same specced PCs, one for my brother and one for my self.

As this thread, and views on video show, no one cares about DF past their console war videos.
I really don't care about the tech about 20 year old games from these people.

Maybe true but there is something to get out of viewing the history of tech. I have a whole bunch of old school game magazines and I love going through them to see how things were.

There is. But others do it better then these guys.
