Mafia: Definitive Edition

Honestly, without even having played the original Mafia back when people were so nuts about it, I know how it looked like. I know what people thought of it. And I can even get people's frustrations who were hardcore fans. There could be changes in the style which understandably left a few people disappointed.

But this is a remake done extremely well. First of all, Mafia 2 and Mafia 3 don't hold back when it comes to storytelling. People take issue with boring gameplay. It's not bad, it's just more or less the same in all three of the games. You drive. You shoot. You watch the story unfold. You drive. You shoot. You watch the story unfold. Oooh! Check this collectible out! Drive some more. Shoot some more. Watch the story unfold.

I'd get it if you don't like that. But the gameplay isn't bad. It's just not as diverse as we expect from AAA games nowadays. But, what is even more important, the story is PHENOMENAL. Finally watching where it all started, after knowing how it turns out in the next two, I can only catch myself at the edge of my seat with every next cutscene. And thanks to the visuals, it practically looks like a movie.

I can't get over the fact that we're living in that time where we could watch what used to be a bunch of awkward animated blocks turn into almost lifelike cinematic experience. It is beautiful. And well voiced. And with this definitive edition, I think the trilogy is surely one of the best trilogies out there. Not for everyone! But IT IS good!

The thing that make me love this game was enviroment and story and soundtrack but in other hand the game could be such better The disadvantges of game was the physics of character the animation was also not good ,game like this focus on story should have arabic subtitle cause middle east is one of largest region that sell video game The gameplay overall wasnt that good what make is fun was the story

I am a huge fan of the mafia franchise. Especially 2 and 3. I had never played the original mafia. It was always a bit too expensive on steam, and I didn't feel that in the condition it was in, that it was worth it. The mafia franchise went dark after 2018. Mafia 3's reception was pretty negative. I personally thought it was a great game, while flawed. I was just worried we wouldn't be seeing anything soon. Then ya know, the rumors started spreading about mafia 4. We end up getting this masterpiece, and I ain't complaining. Mafia definitive edition is awesome. I got it for 40 dollars, and I feel I have ripped off the devs. The game is incredibly immersive and beautiful on my pc. Runs a smooth 60 fps on my gtx 1660, and the graphics are just extraordinary. The story itself is amazing after 18 years. Obviously, hangar 13 has spiced the story up after that time. It's very faithful to the original, and told in a much better, more modern way. The characters all sound and act fluently, and have distinct personalities. The dialogue is amazing. With some especially stand out scenes. The characters also look amazing. The lighting is so much better than in 3. The gameplay itself is awesome and exhilarating as well. There are some glitches, but I am sure they'll be fixed in time. On pc, the screen will freeze, and it can be quite annoying. Also, the cars can flicker very infrequently. A non technical thing I'm not crazy about is the free roam. I adore the map in all of its glory, but the free ride mode is underwhelming. There's no real interactivity. I honestly hope hangar 13 gives it a little more time. I do really feel they knocked it out of the park with this one tho. They had a rough start on the gaming industry, and imo, they've fully redeemed themselves. I just can't recommend this game anymore. It's worth the price and then some!

The original Mafia (2002) is one of my favorite PC games ever. When I heard about the remake I was skeptical. Overall they did a good job but die hard fans of the original might be disappointed at what's missing here. You don't learn how to lock pick individual cars like in the original , the narration from the main character is gone, lucas bartones side missions got moved into the free ride mode, that now combines free ride and free ride extreme from the original. Your garage is just a menu like in Mafia 3, no more walking up and choosing your car from a classic car graphics. Nice graphics but the things I loved about the original are gone or cut back. Deserving of a 7 or 8 for effort.

I was hooked on this game i couldn't get it out of my mind and boy they did a outstanding job its elemental craftwork from 2002 now updated enhancements for the 2020's Andrew Bongiorno is the new voice and model for tommy this time and he steals the show. I must point out that this is not like mafia 2 where you can dine this is basically 2002's mafia with modern day enhancements the cars sound so real from engine heat ticking to clutch gear shifts and the world and tone is so beautiful
