Its no secret that this doesnt look as good as its bigger brothers, but it can certainly stand up to against anything else on this console. Though the title does maintain a stable number of frames per second, its just not a very high number. The only times it really felt smooth were when I was in a small room with no other characters present – it was a fairly bumpy ride pretty much everywhere else. Tack on the abysmal load times and three-menu-deep saves, and youve got a significantly slower play than can be found elsewhere. On the plus side, Max 2 is still an excellent game. All the content is still there, and when youre in the zone capping thugs, you tend not to notice a dropped frame here and there. Also, the control is about as good as it gets – rarely did I yearn for the precision of my mouse. If you have access to one of the more powerful platforms, keep in mind that Max Payne 2 is a much smoother experience when backed up by some high-end electronics; but, if thats not an option, by all means get this.
