NVIDIA is on the war path and is teaming up with one game developer after another. It is the launch partner to 2K Games for the new game Mafia II, a game that is said to take full advantage of NVIDIA’s advanced physical effects.
NVIDIA PhysX is a framework for activating advanced physical effects in game engines. NVIDIA has now released a video where it demonstrates Mafia II with and without PhysX, which really shows what kind of difference the technology makes with loads of particle effects.
The video comes from NVIDIA and should be considered pure marketing, but it’s still interesting to see what kind of physical effects one will find in the critically acclaimed titel.
