all right so we're checking out Mafia 2 performance this is with the Vesta 3050
with the SLI performance package that we actually talked about a little while
back this is a very exciting new title for NVIDIA it's actually coming free if
you buy a GTX 465 470 or 480 from NCI so
that's something that's uh pretty cool and you should probably be aware of
anyway this game is fully NVIDIA
technology out so that means it has full support for physics including entire
destructible environments that means that everything in the game pretty much
can be destroyed and the damage is persistent so all the debris lies around
anything that's been completely trashed whether it's bullet holes explosions
whatever else actually stays that way you got great ragd doll physics
including on the clothing for all of the characters so this is all powered by
physics and this system as I mentioned in my previous video has two GTX 460s
we're running this at 1920 x 1080 so that's 1080p with all of the details
maxed out in game now that means that we've only got 2x anti-aliasing but it
as you can see provides a very stunning visual experience now something you
should also be aware of like it's all the subtle little things right when you
have an explosion like that fire that was well they're a while back sorry
about that um if the character's standing nearby it'll actually Ripple
the clothing on his body that's how detailed the uh the physics calculations
that are being done on the GPU are for this particular game this is basically
what physics should have been ages ago
um but really it came down to developer
support for NVIDIA to be able to really implement it the way that it should be
done here we're just doing a flyby back through the little uh the little demo
level that we've seen you can see stuff's kind of still falling down still
falling apart here's our character walking out check out the clothing
though that's one of the coolest things about this game also many of the
particle effects whether we're talking about uh smoke from explosions or
whatever else are being done with physics rather than just being uh like
a actually here this is a really cool effect too look at that all the glass
flies out when the explosion goes off inside anyway thank you for checking out our video on Mafia 2 as well as the
NVIDIA technologies that go behind it as run on the Vesta 3050 SLI performance
package
