[MULTI] Mafia II

Am I the only one on RaGEZONE to have played this very very decent game?

I got it for the PC, which with using an XBox controller is the best option in my honest opinion.

As someone who has more than a passing interest in criminal gangs from around the world, in particularly the US Mafia, I found the portrayal of the Cosa Nostra to be fairly accurate in this game. Yes it glamorises it to some extent, but the uncertainty, the fear and the betrayal aspect of the life is very well done.

I'd give this a very good 8.5/10, which is good for me since I'm hard to please. Ask my Girlfriend.

you aren't fulzo has it, and i played the demo, my fav part was the pornography.

Lol @ that part. I played the demo also and I want to by the game SO DAMN BADLY for Xbox but I need the money for gas, parts, ect.

If your PC can manage it, get it for that.

Played it, and loved it. It's pretty much a masterpiece.

A few annoyances, though:
- No freeroaming - the game decides when to save (story checkpoints).
- The cops are incredibly aggressive and annoying.
- Despite them supposedly choosing the best ending (originally they had 4 possible endings; but supposedly this one was "the best" according to their playtesters), I really HATED the ending. It was unexpected/sudden, and I was rather disappointed.

Great otherwise though!

Haha I felt a bit gutted at the ending, not because it sucked but because what happened made me feel a little shit inside.

Still playing through it at the moment but it's pretty damn awesome, my only gripe is how hot my gfx gets while playing it, even on low settings. Still a good game and worth the buy.

What yo talkin about man? Only on Chapter 3 atm

There are vintage Playboy Mags scattered around, just shows big natural boobs.

Love this game.. there's a certain amount of 'class' in it which is just brilliant imo.
My favourite part of the game has to be where Vito and Joe are pretending to be Janitors in order to get into the hotel to blow up Clemente's family.

New dlc trailer if you haven't seen it yet..

Getting this for the 360 the next time I'm in town... :)

Best game I ever played, I beat the whole game in about 2.5 days?
I wish it was way longer.

yah it looked good but my eyes are set on other games atm
