Max Payne 2 Minimum System Requirments

[Chiss]

For minimum, these are pretty damn demanding.

From Official Max Payne 2 site:

MINIMUM SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS

1Ghz PIII/Athlon or 1.2Ghz Celeron/Duron processor

32MB AGP graphics card with hardware transform & lighting support

256MB RAM

1.5 GB hard drive space

Windows 98/ME/2000/XP

DirectX 9.0

Keyboard and mouse

:o

I do have higher then all of that, but thats pretty demanding I think. Anyother games demanding something that high???

[JnCoKiLLa]

Damn...They are all looking for a nice setup...i wonder what the Pefered are

[Summoner]

Sim City 4 actually requires more than that if your city gets large enough... but that's kind of off topic ;)

I'm not sure there are any games out presently that have minimum sys requirements like that, but I'm more than pretty sure Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 will come close to those, if not go over.

[Timan Veteran]

i think its good they are making sys req higher, tell people its time to upgrade, anything under a gig is getting slow now :/

[AndyD]

What is recommended?

[.weir]

Doom 3 and Half Life 2 are going to crush those sys requirements, those are only slightly demanding, they're not that bad at all though, my computer will run this, but prob not HL2, don't get so worked up.

[Hills420]

:( I have a P3 866......

[seethru]

yum, I have over that by a long shot, good to hear since I pre-ordered it.

[nomis_nehc]

but keep in mind that's just the minimum. often times, even the recommended reqs aren't even close to what you would want to play it int.

[Gary_Player]

I dunno, i used to play Pentium 2 games on my 486 with only minor difficulty...Maybe its cuz i had 128meg of ram :D

[TopMan]

They are not too high for the current standards. Remeber the first game? For its time it had sky requirements. Max Payne was the first game which wanted over 64MB of RAM. Over 450Mhz CPU...And for the killer system Max Payne wanted 1Ghz!!!!

[Briandl79]

These don't seem to be that high, you'd certainly need to have a pc that is at least a couple of years old if it can't meet them.

It's also possible that these are more accurate minimum system requirements than other games have.

I thought it was higher :)

[AcdShdw]

wow those are nowhere near demanding

[Borbus]

its not that demanding. maybe its time to upgrade ur pc. my new pc is meant to be budget and it will play this easy.

You guys think my new PC will be able to run it with over 10 Fps ?

You do know right that hl2's gfx engine is scalable with a huge range of hardware, from tnt2 onwards, just that you may not get all the beauties if you don't meet the recommended req's.

My system 'just' meets those requirements :unsure: I hope I can play it, since I'm not sure when I'll get myself a new computer or an upgrade

[YaZoR]

pathetic requirements. pc hardware is so cheap now you can build a 1.8ghz/512mb/40gb/gf4ti system (including monitor, the works) for under ?500. if your upgrading then its no where near that. i want games wto display min specs to play it at a minimum of 30fps average, not so that it *just* runs. if it said 1.5ghz then i'd be thinking of upgrading (hl2/d3/q4).

[nekrosoft13]

i got my new PC Gamer magazine

and they said that the min specs for doom3 are

1ghz p3

geforce 2-up

forgot how much ram

and they said that a "big Hard Drive" will be required

:whistle: i wonder how big

[TooPackShaker]

you guys gotta remember sometimes they underrate this stuff just to sell more

those minimum specs might = 20 fps with the graphics on min everything :o

640x480 :angry:

of course Im exagerating but you get the idea

[badall]

I don't know does anyone think mine will run it :shifty:

[jaffa]

wel my current setup won't run it atm: amd 350mhz... 512mb pc133 :D. but that's just cause i blew up my proc on my new pc :ninja: ...

i also have a radeon 9600PRO. wonder if it's good enough.. or just like 30 fps :cry:

[Callaway]

Whoa...guess a gig of Ram isn't such a bad idea.

The minimum requirements for Doom 3 are actually,

P3 1 ghz

512 megs ram

Geforce 3 and up

3 GB of hard drive space

Half Life 2's specs are not high since it's very scalable.

P3 500 mhz

DX6 or above compatible video card

256 megs ram

2 gb hard drive

It's recommended is,

P4 2.5 ghz

Radeon 9500 and up

512 megs ram

Max Payne 2's is nothing special. Most games are starting to require a minimum of 1 ghz. And a 32 meg graphics card is low.
