Andrew Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 It is out, I just realized.I was wondering if my computer could play it nicely (like the first one)I enjoyed max payne very much, and also am wondering if it's worth buying. (if my computer can play it smoothly)Here are the requirements:MINIMUM CONFIGURATION1Ghz PIII/Athlon or 1.2Ghz Celeron/Duron processor32MB AGP graphics card with hardware transform & lighting support256MB RAM1.5 GB hard drive spaceWindows 98/ME/2000/XPDirectX 9.0Keyboard and mouseRECOMMENDED1.4Ghz Athlon or 1.7 Ghz Pentium 4, Celeron or Duron processor 64MB DirectX 9 compatible AGP graphics card with hardware T&L support 512MB RAM 1.5 GB hard drive space Windows 98/ME/2000/XP DirectX 9.0 Keyboard and mouseI can get directx 9, but my video card is what I'm mostly worried about. My direct x is attached. If anyone has the game with a similiar system to me, please tell how it runs and if it is as good as the first Max Payne.[attachment archived by Gobalopper] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Leaf Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 Finland rocks. 8)And oh. Usually the requirements lie straight to your face. As example; Max Payne (1). The requirements say that the game will never work in my computer, but surprise, surprise. 400 megaherzs, Voodo 3, 226 RAM and blah blah... I put every graphic option to the highest level and it worked fine. No lag at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted October 18, 2003 Author Share Posted October 18, 2003 I don't see why they would make the requirements higher than they actually are, it only deters people from buying it.But I don't know if my video card has hardware transform & lighting support.

Terror Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 Well, i can indeed say that your cpu and Ram will not be any problem, but i too am worried about your tnt2 card, it is a slower model of the normal riva tnt2 2 32 mb, and has only 32 megabytes. I'm pretty sure it will work, but in order to make it run smooth you will have to turn down a lot of special effects and definetly run it in 16 bit color mode. It would be best if you upgrade it to at least a geforce 3.and about that T&L. the TNT2 does not have T&L support, so if it's realy required, you can write that came on your chest, cuz it won't run. Get a geforce, preferably a geforce 3 or higher. (Not a geforce 4 mx 440) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted October 18, 2003 Author Share Posted October 18, 2003 Hmm, That sucks, as I don't want to spend more than $100 on a video card for sure.(not yet)If you can find cheap video cards at www.futureshop.ca or www.staples.ca then I may purchase one since I live next to these stores.Guess max payne 1 will have to do for a couple of years.(then max payne 3 would be out.)

Terror Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 well on that site you posted i saw a geforce FX 5200 for sale at the price of 90 dollars, now that would be an excellent price for a great card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
