Mafia II

^^ I dont think the RSX is based on the G92 core. In any case, the SPEs should be able to handle physics calculations, although I sincerely doubt the devs have taken the time or trouble to specifically program the SPEs.

but the logo disappearance seems kind of fishy isn't it? Even it isn't the GPU, the cell can easily handle physx (or whatever if it's called when CPU processed)

What I do know is that it takes an in-depth understanding of the Cell architecture to make it pull off the kind of stuff we are seeing with Killzone, Uncharted and GoW3. Those are first party sponsored titles and Sony has spent a lot of time and money in helping these studios with harnessing the Cell. I dont think the Mafia devs and their publisher had the time or inclination to devote so much resources towards optimizing the PS3 build. They know its gonna sell the least of the three versions anyway.

So I've played the demo a few times and I think I totally dig the game now. I walked into the cloth shop, bought me some threads , shot the clerk and stole all the cash. Then I had this intense shootout with the cops in the showroom. After that I picked up the phone, bribed some cop and had my heat dropped. After that some random black dude on the street cursed me and opened fire. At first I was like WTF! Then I'm like WESTSIDE Motherfker and bust a cap in his a*s. Pretty soon his homies come down from the nearby building and shoot me dead. I was like WTF! Am I in Compton?

 

Can't wait for the game now.

Sweet. And Brooklyn or Harlem seems more likely. :P

 

And cut the black guys some slack. They're oppressed and are still a few decades away from inventing Gangsta Rap to vent their frustrations.

I didn't consider that. In the end, it's still a port :/

 

So basically a smiley that shoots and kills women and children and every other living thing other than the intended target?
