00:00:01.560 --> 00:00:08.240
all right so we're checking out Mafia 2 performance this is with the Vesta 3050

00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:11.719
with the SLI performance package that we actually talked about a little while

00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:17.960
back this is a very exciting new title for NVIDIA it's actually coming free if

00:00:14.040 --> 00:00:19.880
you buy a GTX 465 470 or 480 from NCI so

00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:25.000
that's something that's uh pretty cool and you should probably be aware of

00:00:21.519 --> 00:00:27.480
anyway this game is fully NVIDIA

00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:32.160
technology out so that means it has full support for physics including entire

00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:36.440
destructible environments that means that everything in the game pretty much

00:00:34.160 --> 00:00:41.480
can be destroyed and the damage is persistent so all the debris lies around

00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:45.840
anything that's been completely trashed whether it's bullet holes explosions

00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:49.719
whatever else actually stays that way you got great ragd doll physics

00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:53.719
including on the clothing for all of the characters so this is all powered by

00:00:51.680 --> 00:00:58.760
physics and this system as I mentioned in my previous video has two GTX 460s

00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:04.159
we're running this at 1920 x 1080 so that's 1080p with all of the details

00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:09.200
maxed out in game now that means that we've only got 2x anti-aliasing but it

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:12.439
as you can see provides a very stunning visual experience now something you

00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:15.720
should also be aware of like it's all the subtle little things right when you

00:01:14.080 --> 00:01:19.640
have an explosion like that fire that was well they're a while back sorry

00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:23.920
about that um if the character's standing nearby it'll actually Ripple

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:28.079
the clothing on his body that's how detailed the uh the physics calculations

00:01:26.320 --> 00:01:34.280
that are being done on the GPU are for this particular game this is basically

00:01:30.479 --> 00:01:37.479
what physics should have been ages ago

00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:39.799
um but really it came down to developer

00:01:37.479 --> 00:01:43.640
support for NVIDIA to be able to really implement it the way that it should be

00:01:41.399 --> 00:01:46.920
done here we're just doing a flyby back through the little uh the little demo

00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:50.680
level that we've seen you can see stuff's kind of still falling down still

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:53.920
falling apart here's our character walking out check out the clothing

00:01:52.600 --> 00:01:57.560
though that's one of the coolest things about this game also many of the

00:01:55.960 --> 00:02:02.920
particle effects whether we're talking about uh smoke from explosions or

00:01:59.960 --> 00:02:08.640
whatever else are being done with physics rather than just being uh like

00:02:06.520 --> 00:02:11.360
a actually here this is a really cool effect too look at that all the glass

00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:17.720
flies out when the explosion goes off inside anyway thank you for checking out our video on Mafia 2 as well as the

00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:23.560
NVIDIA technologies that go behind it as run on the Vesta 3050 SLI performance

00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:23.560
package
