  • To bad 2k was to lazy to program this engine to the Ps3 -.-

    Yet they give xbox this engine

    Yeah 2k just because you gave me a boring ass character named jimmy and his story doesnt make up for the fact that the ps3 version has almost NO PHYSICS

  • @TheRoflninja1000 they dint give it to xbox pc only and they are not lazy if you tried to run this on a console it would catch on fire

  • I HAVE played all cods, bf, gta, max paynes, BUT THIS GAME IS BEST STORY AND GRAPHICS AND PHYSX OF ALL TIME. Story is awesome, happy and also sad, graphics are insane, soo good optimation on pc, no fps lagg, and physx..... aaaaaah. Best game of all time gotta say

  • How can i scroll back the BF3 ad?????????????

  • Is it available for ps3 & xbox, or pc only?

  • Earth,buy a new GPU but with PhysX technology.

  • gtx 570 *-*

  • Shit! Ad is longer than the actual vid!

  • stpid.... look BF3 destruction this is a noob NO ?

  • @Patrik00003 BF3 destruction has nothing on this.

  • I have a Radeon HD 6970 and a 9500gt for physx :D

  • if i try mafia 2 with physx my pc will catch on fire

  • @aeroaa2

    yes did you know many gamers dies from pc catch on fire

  • @gho2t9933 did you know shitbox gamers die from fatness ?

  • @aeroaa2 my laptop can do it

    not kidding

  • @aeroaa2 mine is not that powerful and got it running pretty good!

  • @aeroaa2 fortunately mine will not. i have double Nvidia GeForce GTX 590 :D

  • @flex1996flex if u have sli bridge will work as one gpu ?

  • @flex1996flex --_--''

  • This game is way overrated by the M2 fanboyzz. ;))

    A real piece of shitt, the biggest rip-off so far.. so long.

    FU 2Fake!!!

  • @predatorhimself Troll much?

  • @predatorhimself

    m1 better

  • damn! this music is so intriguing!

  • 0:00

  • vito was awesome... joe was normal... jimmy was terrible...

  • This game is way under-rated!

  • It's not about the graphics it's about the gameplay if you want better graphics upgrade your gpu now stop bitching

  • czechia game i am czech Mafie je nejlepšííí hra na světě :DD

  • amazing game

  • @Playstation3Gamer10 Don't worry man the guy is on a hate and rage session. He just can't control himself thus his violent remarks at my posts and yours :)) He is so self-defensive that he won't mind throwing some username related insults and whatnot :)) Like I told him before as if there's a direct link between a username and what knowledge u possess. The guy is weak and totally not worth it :))

  • @poofartass

    Lol, bringing me back to my original comment: what drugs were you on when you created your username, or are you just THAT mature?

  • @Playstation3Gamer10

    Is that what having an opinion is called nowadays? Oh yeah, I forgot.

  • @Playstation3Gamer10

    Because I'm not in my thirties and I play Mafia 2? Why else?

  • @Playstation3Gamer10

    If I didn't have a life, I wouldn't be living, you stupid cunt. And sorry - you still played PS3 when you were in your 30's, meaning that you're a welfare bum (or living in your mom's basement) playing video games, instead of doing more important things, like getting married, or raising a family.

  • @Playstation3Gamer10

    You're not 34, and if you were, you should stop playing Playstation and get a fucking job, you bum. Our tax dollars go to your welfare. umad?

  • @Playstation3Gamer10

    No, are you blind? Have you tried running Mafia 2, full PhysX, on an ATI card? I have, IT DOESN'T WORK. You're fucking one to talk about playing on crap consoles when you have the name "Playstation3Gamer". Get the hell out of here, kid. 

  • @Playstation3Gamer10

    What the hell do you mean "PhysX is for ATI/AMD"? For one thing, it's just AMD, but that's beside the point. PhysX is SOLELY NVIDIA based. 

  • bhen di lan

  • @Playstation3Gamer10 ok ok calm down lol 

  • @Playstation3Gamer10 Thank you very much for your valuable help!

  • 0:10 What´s the sense, if nobody is inside?

  • @Ondrus21 Is WAS a place of business

  • Is the wife beating and trash talking also PhysX accelerated?

  • What the hell, table is immortal, indestructible 

  • physx just adding more effects

  • Nice game I like this game

  • Can I use physx with a sapphire 6850 toxic, or do I have to own an Nvidia card to do so?

  • @cRazySam2121 no nvidia, no physx

  • @cRazySam2121 you can :D

  • This is one hell of a game Great Graphics and story

    

  • @idman3333 The gameplay such as the shootouts, fights, and the ai is extremely unrealistic thanks to the developers of this game who are 2K Czech. The only great thing about this game is that of the story and the graphics, as well as the sound of the guns.

  • Physics are nice,but it rapes your computer!

  • This is not nvidia physx , is ageia physx buy be nvidia.

  • @VooDooTroLL1 Ageia was absorbed into nVidia.

    It no longer exists as a separate entity.

    It's nVidia PhysX now.

  • @Denamic no shit ? =))

  • 0:13

    

  • Hi! i need help! :O when i want to install physX i get this error: The path C:/programfiles/common files/wises installation wizard/[long named file].MSI cannot be found

  • @VBence741 uninstall all your video drivers and download the latest from website and then try to install from the begining! hope it helps

  • For Instance about the whole particle thing... Crysis has a similar thing, a particle mod. But that too isn't really realistic, it just destroys pc's lol :D. Battlefield 3 with the frostbite engine has way better physhics than Nvidia physx. Also the havok physhics engine has always been a great engine without destroying video cards or cpu's. Since Nvidia has bought over Ageia the only true to life physx I have ever seen was like I said in Batman AA. Anything else sucks and u can test it urselves

  • @poofartass also on the Bad Company 2. it was really good and it doesnt destroy a GPU (LOL)

  • @poofartass

    Says the user with the name "poofartass".  I rest my case.

  • @AETutorials42 With such remarks u only prove your inadequacy in proving me wrong. All u do is manage to show others that u are unable to deny any of this and as such u attack my username. Also I do not see the corellation between a person's username and what information he has to offer, what knowledge he has. So spare us your innapropriate remarks and try formulating a debate next time and retorting in a more civilised manner. Otherwise u are just a troll...

  • @poofartass

    Would you take somebody with a username "Poofartass" seriously? And you have a LOT of nerve telling me to "spare my inappropriate remarks" (although I can't find anything inappropriate about my remark, other than your username) and "retort in a civilized manner" (only apes sling shit).

  • @AETutorials42 Would you take somebody seriously with the username AETutorials42 ? What happened with the other 41AETutorials? were they all taken ? You were the one to start all this by attacking my name and so called "resting your case". And why is retorting in a civilized manner some type of shit that apes sling ? Your logic is not helping u my friend. So sorry but if u keep these remarks up u are only proving my point and making a fool of yourself

  • @AETutorials42 And just so u know I have nothing against you personally. But instead of wasting time bashing my behaviour and username why don't u do something more useful, like using arguments to contradict my initial statements about Nvidia physx ? If u are so contradicted about what I said then why not test it out yourself ? Watch the vids watch gameplay videos analize and interpret. Then come here and post observations, not random attacks on my username lol

  • @poofartass

    Well for one thing, Crysis's particle engine and the particle engine behind PhysX are two COMPLETELY different things... the Crysis mod is a 3rd party install, while the particle engine by NVIDIA comes with PhysX, so it's obviously going to be better quality. Battlefield 3 hasn't been released yet, but you cannot say it's better than PhysX because of that reason, and because PhysX has never done full scale destruction. And yeah, I would take my username seriously, actually.

  • @AETutorials42 i never said Crysis's particle system was better. I said it had something similar and that it was unrealistic, just like the particle engine in physx is also unrealistic. Also although Battlefield 3 hasn't come up yet, videos demonstrating the capabilities of the engine have arrived and they show everything from texture and lighting rendering to the their psysics engine. Judging from what I have seen it has way better and realistic destructability in all ways possible.

  • @poofartass

    Mafia 2 was released in August, 2010. This game will be released in November of 2011. Obviously it's going to have better and realistic destruction. And not to mention, you can't even compare the two. Mafia 2 is essentially an open world game.  To give it full scale destruction wouldn't be possible, because there would be too much to render, and it would lag like hell. And you can't say the PhyX particle system is unrealistic, because you just said Batman looked "true to life".

  • @AETutorials42 Again u missinterpret my words. I said that Batman AA had a better adaptation of the Psyhx engine. The physx engine was simply better implemented in that game in comparison with Mafia 2 or Metro2033 or others. Just cause the implementation was better, it doesn't necesarily make the engine itself better. I can keep this up all day u know. But so far everything u have tried to prove to me has proven unsuccesful.

  • @AETutorials42 And your statement about comparing it the two is semi-adequate. U see Mafia 2 may be an open-world game, but Battlefield has massive environments and much larger maps than any other regular shooters. Also just cause Mafia 2 is a massive quasy open world environment, that doesn't mean that destruction and the use of the pshyx engine will occur everywhere in that world in order to make the game lag.

  • @poofartass

    Frostbite simulates destruction, lighting, and shadowing. I'm not sure what powers the physics in Bad Company (maybe Havok, or maybe even Frostbite). I do know however that PhysX simulates, the particles, the physics, the lighting, the shadowing, the material of the clothes in the game... etc. And don't forget, open world = lots of people, buildings, and cars which all have to be simulated as well. FULL destruction wouldn't be feasible.

  • @AETutorials42 While I admit full scale destruction might not be feasible, a smaller scale of destruction might be feasible :D I mean one has to take into consideration car crashes and such things. They create destruction often times more than a rocket launcher lol. So open world or not, which again I state it's a quasi-open world since it has its limitations, I believe that something might be done in this direction to improve the quality of physx

  • @poofartass

    Oh, and like you said: Battlefield is a shooter. While the MULTIPLAYER maps might be large, Mafia 2 is a constantly-running huge map. Shooters usually have toned down graphics, and, pardon me, but Mafia 2 still looks much better than Battlefield 3 in terms of graphics, even if Battlefield 3 may have more destruction. When you look at the scope of the two games, Mafia 2 has better implementation of destruction, because it's a full open-world game, and not a shooter.

  • @AETutorials42 Shooters usually have tone downed graphics :)) lol :)) hilarious. Have u heard of Metro2033 ? Or Crysis ? Or Crysis 2 with the dx11 high texture patch ? Even Battlefield Bad Company 2 and Stalker have better graphics than Mafia 2. :)) I mean are u actually saying that Mafia's illusion engine is better than Cryengine and Frozenbite and the 4A engine ? Get real :D To me even GTA 4 looks better than Mafia 2, it's just poorly optimized....

  • @poofartass

    Ha, and now we stop the comedy session and go BACK to reality. First of all, I meant cookie-cutter shooters. As in, console-favorites such as Battlefield, Call of Duty, etc. etc. Obviously Crysis will look good with the DX 11 patch, but I'm talking vanilla, un-modded games. GTA 4 does NOT look better than Mafia 2, let's get that straight, first. BFBC 2 graphics are subpar to Mafia. The frostbite engine in BFBC 2 doesn't simulate particles as well, either.

  • @AETutorials42 @AETutorials42 First u say Battlfield 3 then u switch back to BF BC2 "Mafia 2 still looks much better than Battlefield 3 in terms of graphics, even if Battlefield 3 may have more destruction." Also Crysis 2 looks very good even in vanilla :)) And GTA 4 does have better graphics than Mafia 2 :)) Try Mafia 2 without physx enabled and see that they are very similar :))And crysis 2 dx11 is not a mod, it's an offical developer patch :)) PATCH not MOD.

  • @poofartass

    Are you on meth or something, or do you just have a single digit IQ? I brought up BFBC 2 because YOU did, not because I wanted to. Crysis 2 looks like shit compared to the first because the console users bitched and wanted their own version of the game. GTA 4 does not have better graphics than Mafia 2, PERIOD. PhysX or no PhysX. With PhysX, Mafia 2 makes GTA IV look like the first Mafia.

  • @AETutorials42 Seriously if you think Battlefield 3 doesn't have better graphics than Mafia 2 then I will stop posting here since u are not worth my time really. Go back and watch some more gameplay vids of Batllefield 3 and actually LOOK at the details and graphics there. From the tremendously realistic character models, weapon models, textures, to the sound and lighting and shading and EVERYTHING :D

  • @poofartass

    And you need to stop fucking comparing Mafia 2 and Battlefield 3. THEY ARE TOTALLY DIFFERENT GAMES. What don't you understand? I feel like I'm arguing with a fucking fanboy brick wall. Jesus Christ, even a 4 year old wouldn't compare the two because it knows they're different. Not only was Battlefield 3 developed a YEAR AFTER Mafia 2 with DIFFERENT tech, but it's a shooter. You know what? Mafia 2 looks better than Battlefield 3. Fuck you.

  • @AETutorials42 Ah so the little Mafia 2 physx fanboy finally cracked huh ? U finally got pissed and said Fuck you. Well good for you noob since that doesn't affect me at all. I told u from the getgo that little trolls like you only manage to make fools of yourselves. The fact that u were the one to start making fun of my name and all now you are the same one that cracked like a ripe wattermellon, that only proves how lame u really are. Have a nice day u fool. U are pityful

  • @poofartass TLTR

  • @AETutorials42 TLTR *()*

  • @Ectasy1233

    Haha, umad, fag? There's a life over there, go get it. 

  • @AETutorials42 And the fact that physx has never done full scale destruction is also not an excuse. Just cause it hasn't been doesn't make it a sure win if it does. So because they never attempted full scale destruction, that doesn't mean that the presumption that their full scale destruction will be awesome is true. It's like saying just because a guy is a champion boxer , presumably he will knock out competition in other fighting sports. Such a presumption is not a guarantee of truth.

  • This whole physx thing does not impress me. The only and I mean the only REALLY well done physx engine game was Batman AA. All other games with physx such as mafia and metro and others sucked big time in physx simulation. So what if the clothes move in an explosion if the character wearing it is not blown away ? or like dindzr said about 0:36 with the glass. Also particles seem way too exagerated. They are put there for the sake of being there and showing off.

  • At 00:36 you see the broken glass pieces blown away by the cars explosion. But the glass that is still in the window is not harmed in any way :P

  • @Askar590 Well, no.

  • I hear a skype message sound at 0:13

  • @AdamTehBoss Me too ;)

  • Odd.......my xbox works the cloth well....and I know that doesnt have any new GPU's.....

  • O_O

  • what benchmarks????

  • Awesome!!! And mafia 2 looks like a great game!!!!

  • wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow­!!!!!

  • Most underrated game in the history!

  • Mafia kicks ass.

  • Thumb up if you can hear the noise made by SKYPE at 0:13

  • @TreinKub lol i did actualy

  • not this on my ATI RADEON?

  • @ViCEOneTwo

    what do you mean? can you play it on ATI HD RADEON 5760?

    with i7 930 processor, dell xps 9100?

  • @hafeeza91 i can play with a ATI HD RADEON 5670 xfx with a amd 555 processor.

    FULL EVERYTHING physics, geometry, res, and shader. Great FPS also

  • @zezsn1p3r

    really? great...how about ati hd radeon 5670 with i7 930?

    i really dont know anything about computer.

    can i play it with physx on?

  • @hafeeza91 doesn't support physx child.

  • @hafeeza91 Usually Physx doesn't have that much of a difference. It might make it lag but sure you can

  • @zezsn1p3r ati doesnt have physx..

  • @MarshMellowChronic mine does. :D

  • Why did I go with useless piece off shit ati?

  • Dayum,that is good,I wish my pc ran like that.

  • Man I can play this game on everything maxed out, but cause I got an Ati card I lose about 60% performance when I enable physicsX damn u nividia u greedy bastards lol

  • PhysX is NVIDIA's greed, it isn't even multi-threaded on the CPU.

  • Omg im so glad that ive a gtx460 from NVIDIA

  • Does PHYSIX support this graphic card ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145 ?

    because PHYSIX is powered by NVIDIA

  • @bombach007 nope, PhysX only supports Nvidia products since Nvidia bought PhysX.

  • at 0:34-0:38

  • is there one error: how its possible breake the would glass with one shoot? LOL

  • this game is awesome defnetly worth buying. i got it on pc

  • What so great about PhysX?! You just paying extra hundred dollars just for extra debris flying around.

  • @adasdqweqw Actually, affordable cards like a pre overclocked version of the GTX 460 for about £125 support PhysX very well and play Mafia 2 just as well.

  • @adasdqweqw PhysX is a propritary real-time physics engine. It calculates simulation's such as: Smoke, water, cloth, destruction, vehicles, ragdolls, weather, and many more effects. So it is not just Debris "flying" around.

  • Having the game more relistic inst always better , now when i play ava , it shakes like hell on a lader because i have phys x enabled in my settings.

  • I got this for present! The sketchbook of mafia 2 is fucking awsome

  • @murdertoy Me too :P Can't wait to play it :D

  • if you would compare, then how many FPS you loose in enabled / disabled PhisiX, on the same PC hardware on the same settings?

  • The game is defenetly woth getting.

  • Chtěl jsem se zeptat jestli PhysX funguje i na kartách ATI, předem dík zaradu

  • Can someone tell if this game is worth getting?

  • @gunslayer05 no, it cost very much, has about 10 hours of playing witch is very little, there are no able to go taxis, buses or subway. i would rather recommend gta iv if u dont have it, its more better than this. or then you just ware it

  • Honestly Speaking I Own A Nvidia Card And I Played The Entire Game With The PhysX Option Disabled And I Still Go The Same Effect.......So Don't Really Think That PhysX Makes Any Big Difference Apart From The Bits And Pieces.....

    Thumbs Up If Other Nvidia Users Agree...

  • Nvidia propaganda.

    still By Ageia. IDFC! if nvidia owns the company. i they only stopped their propaganda, i could by an nvidia card.

  • @pioneerz450

    You're an idiot.

  • I'm happy Crysis was released before physx because you'd have to buy Nvidia cards to destroy the trees ans other objects. I won't buy Nvidia just because of Physx.

  • @kalelsant it has physX prob only becouse nvidia paid to them to make it so

  • fckin hate PhysX .... Nvidia sux all da way down .... thumbs up for best contender Ati Radeon Hd .. Peace

  • lame

  • Honestly.

    The explosions in GTA4 are better :D

  • Is it a map of Russia he made at 0:33?

  • looks worse with phys x imo :S

    the bits look out of place.

  • looks worse with phys x imo :S

  • Stunning graphics!

  • In the light of its predecessor, Mafia 2 is not that good a game. It's okay, but not as good as I expected. The first Mafia game totally kicks ass

  • my pc can run this game at 1680..rez max for my monitor and everything on high except physx i only have 2 gigs of ram and just dualcore procesor

  • @McMIxTER your RAM is fine, but what speed is the processor? look up overclocking (unless you have a Dell)

  • @LizzyAston no ill probably get a quad core instead i just need help with them how do i know wich are compatible with my motherboard

  • My pc can only play this one physX and APEX 'off" and 1280x'something'

    and everything off :(

  • omg except the glass and wood destruction it dont looks realistic

  • lol the car destruction looks realisticer than gta 4 :P

  • @BRBSHUTUPNOOB look at Crysis's graphics and destruction ;P

  • hey giys! I bought today new GPU! without box only gpu and adapter! for 12,5 $! lol) i think to resell it but i think that this gpu will be great for PhysX ! I'am right?

  • @bogdan1748 how can we know if you dont write the model ??

  • @drfunstein sorr forget 8600gt 256 mb ddr3....

  • @bogdan1748 Yea itll play all new games on MAX man!!! Kewl, nice find.

  • ima make john dillinger on here

  • this raw3r then mafia 1

  • Next attempt of nvidia to show how "superior" GPU's are, bullshit - CPU can handle physx much better but since nvidia made the FPU calculate it rather than the new powerful SSE + disabling multi core CPU support made people buy their cards. Basically making the new CPU's like Thuban or Yorkfield perform similar to 15 year old P II or Duron; or even less. If you want a proof of what I've said look at CPU PhysX benchmarks of Batman AA, the CPU load is almost none with it enabled.

  • @MostWanted095 Keep this in mind, GPU's are ten times faster then CPU's

  • @RUDY2295

    Kid, you with your knowledge about computing you can go and screw your self. FPU calculates physx as the program tells the CPU to do so. FPU is 10x Slower compared to Linear or Vector SSE calculations, Including the calculation on Single FPU rather than multiple cores. Go and use your brain before saying something stupid.

  • @MostWanted095 okay, do you know anything about how an ATi will perform with this game, physics-wise? will it still be able to deliver this level of physics? or am i going to have to do the dumb thing of buying a 9600GT second hand for it?

  • @LizzyAston

    Nv PhysX is a commercial software highly downgraded under CPU's which blurs the eyes of people making them think GPU's are superior; aparently Havok engine provides SSE calculations on multiple cores. Although nvidia bribes some game companys to use their software. And yes, if you cannot live w/o particle effects you'd need to get nshit card and crack the drivers in order to allow hardware acceleration on it. AMD is working on an Open CL alternative.

  • @MostWanted095 you're a fucking God and I want to worship you

  • physx is bullshit. except for the fact that everything falls on the ground and stays there, there's no fuckin difference. it's a fucking marketing tool. I actually like it better with physx off. At least for this game. Maybe physx was a bit better for batman Arkham Asylum.

  • PhysX is great but it just kills performance far to much even with a dedicated card to run it, and when it is on it doesnt even look all that spectatular. Its just not worth the performance hit, games can intergrate their own physics engines great anyway just by using the CPU for calculations.

  • Holy Shit I'm Buying It On PC Today

  • Skypes running in the background you can hear a blub at 0:14 ;D

    and this is the 1000 comment :DDDDD

  • @tschouschai haha yea i was like "hey i just got a message" looked - "hmm. must be in the vid."

  • LOL
