Maxpayne How did Max Payne 1 for the PS2 have worse graphics even knowing it was on a DVD?
The PC version was 1 CD, but the PS2 version was a DVD, 4.7 to 8.9 GB!!! That's 3 to 7 GB more! Please help me with this issue.

The PS2 is slower? I never owned a PS2 but that sounds likely to me.

The game could take a terabyte, if the system was slower, it would still have to look uglier.

Size of disc doesn't mean anything either. Just cause the PS2 version used a DVD doesn't mean it used up all the space on it.
