Finally a normal looking thumbnail
I love the absurd thumbnails, like predator
Haha the first time where the head matches with the suit
I was literally going to say that
*cough* racing games *cough*
The car ones are amazing
I was so bad at the original i couldn't get past the 1st driving mission i had to have my mom do it for me
Wow, that's precious! 😍
Best mom in the world truly
I haven't past it to this day
I don't have a mom
LMAO
BestWest92 I’m in a similar situation to you. Just with my grandma mate.
Seeing how good this remake is,I can't even imagine how good a vice city remake would be...
it would be good but they need to add things to do after the main story because that’s what mafia 1 is missing
@@cookiee__ ah thank you just the comment I needed to see so I won't be buying this game
@@HomieDaClown. mafia always been that tbh
You mean it would be a reskin of gta5?
Also San Andreas 🤤
This game shows that having the missions start one after another makes the pacing a lot better than when you have to drive to the next mission like in many modern open world games. Also, it shows that having a smaller map in which many of the locations are actually used can be a lot better than having a huge map with a bunch of pointless fluff in it. As a huge fan of the original Mafia and as someone who was extremely disappointed in Mafia 3, I can confidently say I loved this game and think Hangar 13 really pulled it off. I was skeptical about them adding extra scenes/dialogue, but they really pulled it off and in my opinion, made the story even better than in the original.
I feel like it kinda makes the story much more fast paced, and some people like me like going and messing arround, getting into gunfights with cops and doing side quest and then instantly being able to do a mission afer, kinda as a break from the story and it helps the game go by slower, i completed it in 2 days and didnt like the fact that i had to quit, go to the main menu and choose free play and was bummed when i finished it in such a short time and there wasnt any more content afterwards
@@plainlyretro4680 Same! You can literally do nothing besides the story. Yeah, some collectable stuff but good luck finding it. Its not on the map. You cant interact with shit. Not even enter the tram or the metro. Cant even get on the plattform. Sure, Mafia 3 was filled with filler content but the gun fighting was way better, as well as stealth combat. All of those are really boring and/or bad in this game (for the reasons mentioned in the video).

Wish they would remaster The Godfather games and Scarface
Godfather 2 is so underrated, love to see a remake.
Yes plz both super underrated
YES!!
PREACH!
I want a Godfather prequel, where you play as Vito Corleone and build the Family from scratch.
The most hilarious part to me was the first time you get in a car. Someone yells “get out of here fast!” And then you slowly pull off in a model T at a top speed of 30 mph 🤣
I AM SPEED
Incorrect, Henry Ford named the automobile the “ford model T” because it was the newly made model that came after the ford model S.
Production began in 1903 when ford model A was introduced, followed by a ford model B and a ford model C. Later in the late twenties and early thirties, henry started the alphabet again with the new and improvised ford model A to show that it did not have a connection with the model T.
30mph was fast back in the day and it is funny looking at it today
It's a Studebaker 1930. Not a model T, or even a Ford 🙃
That's the same speed I pull out, Ladies ;) lol jk
Lol 😂 “that infamous race car mission” we all know the pain.
I have just been through that... as unbearable as I remember it! Agree on the mediocre shooting/on-foot controls, yet it’s an improvement from the original(18y passed so not hard to do). Missed the tutorial introduction and the bible part before the intro 😆
There was a short cut right?
I don´t understand why people hated that race. It was a bit challenging, sure, but not insanely hard by any means.
@@Kwak888 Yes! In the original Mafia there was a shortcut! I KNEW I was remembering this correctly!
But guess what... in the remake the Shortcut is totally blocked off! LOL!
These is a shortcut that you can use in the race
Didin't play the original and honestly I am glad this was a straight up story game. Really refreshing and a ton of fun.
I also did not play the orginal
The original was amazing in it's day. So nostalgic replaying it in modern graphics
this is a piece of shit compared to the original. there is nothing immersive in this version.
Nobody asked u goof
Try the original bro... Been watching videos of the remake, and feels off, graphics are good, but unfortunately that's what ppl in 2020 care about...
It just has better graphics, but that's it... Idk feels like a different game, still prefer the old one, and it's not nostalgia...
They need to remaster 'GUN'
If anyone was lucky enough to play that gem you know what im talkin about
This is for Jenny
I just bought that game used for like 15 bucks a few months ago,haven’t played it in years
That game was amazing!
Lincoln Riddle yeahh,it was really short,but it’s a blast to play
That was the first M game I ever played, and I didn’t have a memory card. All I remember was getting to the part on the train where they cut the guys ear off, but that’s as far as I’d get before I’d have to get off and lose all of my progress XD
I love the fact that the game allows you to skip unnecessary driving sections. I drove for the first 3-4 missions, and that’s it. It’s a setting in the menus that let’s you turn off unimportant car trips. That’s one thing that annoyed me about GTA V, you’d drive to a location to trigger a mission, then have to drive to where you came from to actually do the mission!
Gta V driving mission's are probably one of my most pet peeves about the game, the dialogue is nice but...I JUST WANT TO GET TO MY DESTINATION.
Are we getting an easter egg video on this?
Joe Boyle I’m nearly finished with it, but I haven’t found anything yet. I’ll keep looking though...
@@CaptainEggcellent Awesome, i'll keep an eye out.
The amount of handholding in GTA is obnoxious and boring. I swear to god if the next GTA is just follow the dots and go to this EXACT SPOT NO DEVIATION, I will not buy it.
This game really makes you feel like you’re Italian
I am anyway 🤣
This game really makes you hate yourself
@d R Don't take stuff on the Internet too hard buddy, jokes are jokes, good or bad, they aren't aiming to offend you
@@jadaoun03 Beware! Maby hes from Sicily! 😄
The big thing about Mafia for me has always been the ambiance, and this one nails the 1930's. Great choice of songs and the city is beautiful. It was also the reason for me to like Mafia 3, loved that late 60s early 70s feeling, being in the swamps with some rock on the radio.
Goddamn right. After playing definitive edition of mafia 1 I’m gonna go back through all of them. Got me back into this game style and god, I agree, the ambience in these games in the settings is unmatched. Just so good.
Yeah reminds me a lot of la noire

That's how I remember the graphics back then...
Bro your comment is the essence of nostalgia.
shrimpeggplant r/wooooooooooooooooooosh
No, you don't
Not really. I got lost in this city without looking at the map all the time. There are a few points like Giuliani Bridge and the hospital. Other than those, it looks very different.
@@MatejSunavec agreed. The OG version I loved also and That's one game I never really learned the map that well. Was always lost lol Lost Heaven lol
Scarface remake or definitive edition would be AMAZING
or a Vice City remake
That would be sick
This is my first Mafia game. I just finished the game yesterday. The game is visually and story-wise absolutely awesome!
Although, the handling felt awkward to me. Other than that, I'm stunned by every aspect of the game. Kuddos to Hanger 13.
I can't like this comment because it has 69 likes.
Dude the rain effect on night lights are amazing
Henry: "I go to church every Sunday. What about you Vito?"
Vito: "Last time was before my mother passed. She made me go to confession about remarking about a dame."
Joe: "You really buy into that heaven and hell stuff don't ya Henry?"
Henry: "Yeah, but how about you, when did you last attend mass?"
Joe: "Easter..."
Henry: "Hey that ain't to bad,"
Joe: "...1941."
Henry: " I take that back, you're going to hell."
Joe: "Eh, whatever. Step on it Vito!"
Loved the story, characters, and the conversations they'd have in Mafia 2. Especially the time Vito drove Joe and Ed around when they were hammered after visiting the "cat house."
😭😭🤣
✌💕🖤
damn you brought out the bot squad somehow
@@pootisspencer5492 I know, can't swing a cat around here without hitting one. Very awkward.
That’s why i re-played the game like 10 times since it came out.
From watching this I can say that the driving in the old Mafia seems so much better. Also the fact that I could roam around, steal cars and set them in the backyard of the safe house without them disappear had to be my favorite thing about the game.
Bought the whole trilogy and played #1 straight away in the succession of 3 days. It was superb all the the way through. Was taken aback by how great it was. Loved every minute of it.
Im considering getting the trilogy but still debating between it , farcry 6 and guardians of the galaxy. Which would u pick?
@@adityajahagirdar397 I beat all three. I reccomend Mafia 1 or Guardians of the Galaxy more than Far Cry 6.
I’m watching this video debating on buying the trilogy. I briefly tried 3 but was more into rdr at the time so idk. Maybe it’s worth it while it’s on sale for 20$
This is the first time I comment on a video this new, dude if you read this just know that your videos are really helpful and insightful. I’ve started watching the before you buys for games I’m not even planning on buying lol.
Thanks for this series!
Thanks for watching and huge thanks for the kind words! They really go a long way 🍕
Sometimes a simple thank you make our day. Thanks jake for the video!
U telling me u have been on TH-cam for 9 years and only comment now?!?!
SAME
Vito: Mr. Angelo?
Tommy: Yes
Vito: Mr. Salieri sends his regards
Tommy: [Before you buy thumbnail]
Tommy: WAIT WAIT, if you spare me then I'll give you the Mafia remake for free
Not tryna be a buzzkill, this comment actually made me laugh which is rare... but that's kind of a spoiler for ppl who haven't played M1 :/
Mike Ferrando Mafia 1 is an 18 year old game. All bets are off when it comes to spoilers. If you never played it, chances are you were probably never going to.
@@solmenuoner I respectfully disagree, I see loads of comments saying this is their first time playing the series as a whole, or their first time playing mafia 1
@@solmenuoner Personally disagree. And you mentioned why (in my opinion) you're wrong. It's an 18 year old game, theres a whole new generation of players who might not have been born when the original dropped.
It's not a GTA V or Skyrim type of situation where it's fair to say nearly every gamer has at least a basic knowledge of the story.
They should remake the first Godfather game. Open world, you could extort businesses, blow up rival family businesses, where houses, overall better than mafia.
Mafia is so shit bro
Yeah they should
To be fair, Mafia is not necessarily a open world franchise but more of a story driven one.
Behead horses too
Yeah mafia so shit. GODFATHER was a way better game than mafia
I just finished the game today. It was my first time playing the game and I had no regrets with the purchase. The story was so rich along with the scenes, lighting, and music. Especially the music
How did you beat the race
@@Brotherarmz32 hate to say it but trial and error 😂
When the thumbnail fits perfectly: “wait that’s illegal”
It most fits with Hitman, but this fits good too
I already bought it lol. First time into the mafia series for me. I’m very excited to play it tonight
Drams O'Scotch damn the game is that old? I had the Xbox but never heard of this franchise until the ps3 days.
@@FunKaYxxD1sCO Enjoy dude! I'd have like a remake of Mafia 2 but they just updated some textures here and there. I recommend playing it though once you're done with the first.
Cheech Wizard I will try it after completing this game. I just heard mafia 3 back a few years ago, wasn’t to great.
Already playing it, masterpiece so far 👌🏻
Dillan Armani Mafia 2 was the first one I played, loved it. Mafia 3 was okay, loved the story but the gameplay was just super repetitive. I haven’t played the first one before so super excited to play this one tonight.
Man you are 100 percent thorough in every thing you say regarding your game reviews.
You've helped me a lot when I'm wanting to buy a new game.
That's why I go to you when I'm at a game store trying to decide.
I can't imagine how much money I would have lost buying games that turned out to be shit.
Yea? Bro how is this remake ?? I'm considering to buy this or watch dogs legion , a bit of advice if u can?
I'm with you in liking that it "feels old", I bought this recently to test my new graphics card and it was really cool to have the same gameplay feel I remember from college years (Nostalgia=++) while experiencing some beautifully stunning graphics.
This game has some really impressive reflections, especially when it's raining. I know it's become pretty standard in games recently but they did a damn good job with the lighting and reflections imo. Loving it so far.
Yea but they couldn’t make it 60fps LMAO.
The feelings and vibes this game brings makes it soooo good for me. One of the most underlying features i love is the vehicle gas depletion/refill. Im too simple
I just bought mafia DE this morning and resident evil village! I’m loving the Mafia DE, it’s so beautiful.
Game pass gang 💪
Mafia games have always been pretty linear. I don't mind that at all.
Facts mafia is a awesome switch to a chill story mode game
Linear game with awesome open world. In original game I used to drive with no purpose - Lost City was beautiful
original was 100 times better. you cant even get in to a tram in this game, every element in this version breaks immersion.
@@andylai-fz6uc i miss free ride with gangsters in the streets to have shootouts with and get a little $ for it. This is just cops and stuff to find.
Lol, account code: User 5748
Just bought it today, first time playing this series, gonna blaze up and dive into it.
enjoy the real gangsters
Yea me too. I actually finished it in 2 sitting. Played til the race mission and had to take a break and the next day finished it. Not going to lie the race mission almost made me uninstall the game. I been looking for a good story based game for month and bite the bullet and glad i did. I havent played a single player game in last 5 years and decided to play because multi/esport games are just toxic. Starting mafia 2 tomorrow and cant wait.
I thought I was the only one that liked to get high and play adventure games
Jealous
@@loudateez3061 lol dude I smoke with every game I play regardless
This MASTERPIECE of a remake gets a 10/10 from me!
After playing RDR2 for 2 months then Cyberpunk 2077 since December 9, 2020; this was the only other game that could hold a candle to the mentioned greats. What a fantastic game and story. Very thankful that I didn't play the original one when it was released. Now hopping on to Mafia 2 DE.
And yes, you are right, we really need more games like these; it is about the story.
Like a other ww2 remake I was not impressed the recent one
@@squirrelhunter1300 your telling me I barely see any games base on WW1 and Vietnam
Cyberpunk and great are two words that don’t match
Don’t lie jake we all know you lost your voice doing mob impressions XD
🤣
So true
Omg you remember those loading screens going to different areas!?!? Never knew if the ps2 froze or not lmao
I never understood why was Mafia such a mess on PS2
its a mess on the pc too. constant freezing for up to two minutes at a time.
I grew gaming in 2000s. Would love if this remastering trend catch on.
"cops are never around" I can't speed in the campaign without getting cops on me constantly and I'm only on medium
Exactly! I get chased constantly, im sure he has simulation turned off he said he turned it up but maybe he has traffic set to low (not sure that''s an option) On my game they are all over.
I also don't think they're never around. Some missions were about cops chasing us.
Turn it off in settings, they won’t pull you over for speeding
@Robert Anthony yeah that's what I like
I preordered this 18 years ago. Its just that it now looks like what I thought it always should.
Ah yes 4k in 2002
Damn 18 wait. Hope its worth it
I started with Mafia II and never got to play this one until this remake and as a huge Mafia fan this game is amazing! One of the best remakes in recent history.
The Police presence was *definitely* one of the things that made the original *hard*. It added tension to your driving, because if they started chasing you, you were in trouble. It could totally mess up your mission and cause you to have to replay it. Bummer that it's not there in the remake.
No open world padding, that’s music to my ears
😢
the only reason i dont want this game or see myself playing this series again
@Robert Anthony calm down oldman it’s his opinion
Wait why
God ever since shadows of evil I been so in love with the look of this era man it's beautiful..
I miss black ops 3
Didn't even know this was a remake. It's currently free with PS Plus subscription and the trailer on there didn't really give much for what the game was like, so here I am looking it up. I know a lot of people just download whatever is free when they can, but I get picky with what games I have and put effort into (especially as a completionist). So thank you for the video. ^-^ It was insightful.
The ram button is actually really usefull. Helps you corner cars better, especially with faster cars with bad brakes. Powerslide and press ram while steering. Also on the racing mission too
This is probably the best remake I've seen. It keeps all of the great aspects of the original game while keeping it modern with this amazing graphic redesign. I almost thought for a second that this was a new mafia game based on the graphics alone.
JesseFernandesTV exactly my man I love it that’s why I pre ordered it
Nah, the new character models and voices are not as good, you can't interact with every npc, you can't open every door, to me except the graphics this seems more like a downgrade then a remake
@@mullaoslo just like the original.
@@mullaoslo you didn't play the original it seems
@@guillegarcia7146.... I played the orginal on pc back 02 over and over again.. It's one of my favourite games ever.. Hence why I don't like allot of the changes in the remake
I loved the first Mafia! It was so different from GTA. The cops actually going after you for breaking laws was surprising and actually fun. I hated that race mission. It almost made me quit playing the game, but I finally passed it and was glad I did. I didn't mind the linear gameplay. It keeps you immersed in the story.
The race mission gave me bitter feelings about Mafia for 20 years. I mean, just whenever I'd think about it. "Gah! That level!" It's because I played it in high school and it was just as I was gaining momentum, getting better at the game, and truly enjoying it... Just completed it now! Looks like they added difficulty levels before the race that you could change. I put it on the easiest! lol. So now I feel pretty great about Mafia, although I hate how that level ruined it. Otherwise, it's a great game... About to buy the Definitive Edition, here we go again with the racing level...
The shooting being awkward was something I liked actually cause it reminded me more of the original. And I really loved the driving too. Just wish they didn't remove the Lucas bertone missions and the ability to ride trains. But overall I loved it. Would replay it too.
And about mafia 3 it was different but I enjoyed the story even and even though the gameplay was repetitive i enjoyed it cause it was pretty fun imo. But it's not as good as the first 2 though.
The two things I remember about the original. 1) the cab driver mission. 2) that race car mission.
"Just a straightfoward playthrough" music to my ears
It just feels weird to me how they completely skip over Tommy becoming a 'made man' and even his wedding and the birth of his daughter.
Don't know why they would skip that.
probably becuse of spoilers
@@thedisabledviking they don't show it in the game itself.
There is only one line in the game that talks about him becoming a 'made man.'
I didn't even know he was 'made' until they talked about it.
You never see his daughter and his wife barely shows up at all.
Victor Kuhn think of this game as just a little snippet of Tommy’s story. His wife and daughter just aren’t relevant to this part of that story.
@@xeagaort what are you talking about?
He flipped on his friends and did eight years in prison so he and his family could live safely in the future.
Kind of seems like his wife and daughter are at the center of his life.
@@bigmiki2620 yeah well detective Norman didn't really care about Tommy's private life, Tommy could have told him that he had his Bachelor party in las vegas with sam and paulie, or that he and sara had their honeymoon in Cuba, but those information are irrelevant for the upcoming trial against salieri so detective Norman wasn't interested to hear that
ah man, the " you´ve broken the law, i´ll have to fine you" was one of my favourite thinsg from Mafia 1, shame the traffic laws have been toned down here...
I just bought the Mafia pack on steam for $9.99 It came with the originals and their remakes. I remember the original 2 as a kid, never played the 3rd. I'm in the process of beating the first remake then onto the second. Finally the 3rd definitive edition.
Watching this even though I’ve bought it already
Mr. Garvey share your thoughts about it.
@@nickywan123 the controls are ass especially if yoi came from mafia 2 the running feels a little weird but its still good only did the first couple of missions so i cant speak for to much yet
____ Well it all feels like a big combination of Mafia 2 and 3 i’d say.
Same lmao hope it’s worth it 😳🤣
i want to play this game but i get SAVING FAILED AN Error Has Occurred while saving.''' anyone know why?
It’d be nice to have a new linear single player game every now and then. Everything is so big and open world now days(which is also a lot of fun) but it’d be nice if every now and then we got a linear one
You kind of hit the nail on the head with this honest review. I'm no longer into gaming so I don't really know what a modern game is supposed to be like, but the part with the linear story and missions is spot-on - indeed, not many options of how to complete a mission or what missions to pick.
This game has great nostalgia value, but for newcomers, it might feel a bit dated. I would add that developers missed the opportunity to add some new and cool epoch weapons to the game, such as a BAR/Colt Monitor machine rifle, Browning Auto 5 self-loading shotgun, and maybe a Remington Model 8 autoloading police rifle with extended mag, to spice things up and offer more options for different tactical situations. Shooting down a plane with a Tommy gun is totally unrealistic because of the low range and poor penetration of the weapon, known in the Public Enemy era for not being able to punch through a car door, but a 30-06 BAR could get the job done.
Funny how this game looks slightly better than mafia 3. But it has its typical hangar 13 graphical glitches.
The glitches aren’t game breaking I haven’t run across any yet.
they’ve definitely improved on their engine apart from mafia 3, still feels a lot like mafia 3 with the same motions and almost identical gunplay apart from not being able to laser beam people like lincoln clay
@@MentalityIV true
Good
Mafia 3 was a pig in makeup
Awesome! Loved this game back in the day. Now we need a Getaway remake :D
If only Rockstar would have approached the GTA trilogy the same way.
I want a new Splinter Cell game with modern graphics
This series is just a 'watch whilst you download the game' x)

@@TheDom998 most definitely I never played the original me coming into the game fresh it's worth every penny
@@TheDom998 for getting mafia 2 on the ps4, yes definitely
I am a new fan to the mafia series, as i am a 14 year old, but i loved the style of the game with it being focused on the story, because i really got tired of all the open world games that you see everywhere
If I were to make a top 10 list of games that I would love to see remade, the original Mafia would most certainly be on it. I've been super excited for this, and only played through the first few missions so far, but I love it.
This is a masterpiece .. Feels like mafia 2 my fav iv yet to play mafia 1.. and im so into it
Only complaint I have is some of the npc animations but other than that I’m loving it don’t mind some of the npc animations when all of the game in other areas are great
XxHeisenburn Intell masterpiece is a stretch, but I agree that 2 is the best. The games all have great soundtracks that kept me in the vehicles longer than I expected to be.
Are you on drugs
“‘Masterpiece”
🤦♂️😂
@@MrRegD I think 1 had the best story. Main character wise Vito and joe are the best
Playing it now. These guys with a big budget could make something truly amazing, especially on next gen consoles. Story, characters, production values, driving and sound effects are all pretty awesome. Everything else just needs fine tuning. Such a great game even with all its faults.
I never skipped the driving parts of the game, I love driving manual in this lol
Idk. Maybe it's because I played the original and fell in love with it, but this remake is soulless and has so much shit wrong with it.
First off, instead of Innocent, Positive, and God Fearing, Tommy is cold, calculating and brutal, which was more like Vito from Mafia 2. They reused an ENTIRE personality to make Tommy seem like more of a badass instead of being faithful to the character
Second, details like car indicators, various shell casings appearing on the floor, and sounding different depending on what casing it was/what surface it hit, different sizes of blood splatter/pools not just on the ground, but also on the enemy are gone. My car doesn't flash whenever I'm turning, and I've seen shell casings fall through the floor only to completely disappear, this NEEDS to be fixed! Also, damage to the cars were a lot louder in the original: Windows shattering actually felt and sounded like Windows being shattered, and firearms sounded like they had more punch not just when being fired, but when reloaded too.
Finally, THE GODFORSAKEN AI. Everything about pedestrians not responding to your horn, enemies being all around morons, all that shit from Mafia 3? Yeah, it's back because Hangar 13 explicitly referred to Mafia 3 in interviews, not to mention Mafia 1 is now a cover based shooter to top it off.
DO NOT BUY. It's an amazing looking game, but it isn't Mafia.
I cancelled my pre-order upon seeing how shitty it was and the plain-to-see shady business with early review copies and these influenced "critics". But there will never be enough of us to bring a change to the industry. Morons are bragging about pre-ordering this garbage as we speak. Confirmation bias at its finest.
This is not Hangar 13 anymore. Hell, it's not even 2K CZECH. This is an entirely new team with no idea how to make a compelling experience.
Mafia III was a good game, but it just didn’t feel like a “Mafia” game.
It had good gameplay but was so repetitive and lacked consistent story. Wasn't a good game in my opinion. Could have been
@@dvez566 agreed unlocking the story forces the player to do repetitive missions all the time till the ending
it was more like a gta type

@@swaggytjm33matthews26 play 2 I couldn't finish cause before some missions would bug out for me but gonna get into the definitive edition since they gave it for free for old mafia 2 owners, but from the hours I put it solid game. Mafia 3 was alright i think the world and setting was fucking great just the gameplay got old for me and I haven't played 1 but looks like im gonna now.
Now Mafia II: Definitive Edition and i will be happy
Well, that didn’t go great.
@@legofrodobaggins9339 why
I'm just happy to have a story centric "open world" title, there's so much clutter in modern open world gaming that the story often gets lost/told poorly (and/or unevenly paced). Most adult gamers don't have endless time to throw at every game title we pick up...a lot of times I just want a solid story I can play through in a few days/weeks.
If you can do all of it well (balancing story, collectables, side quests, etc.) I'm all for it, but those titles that do are exceptionally few and far between.
Never played a Mafia game before I started this game. I'm about 2/3 of the way through now at a guess, and I think this game is awesome! Such a cool vibe, not a stupid padded out open world, acting is good, graphics are nice, story is engaging. I dont like the gun play controls, but everything else is perfect. 9/10 for me!
"Mr. Angelo? Mr. Salieri sends his regards..."

In this one the ending has more impact.
This game brought back some long forgotten memories, I loved it!.

Get it on consogame its half price on there
@@outere24 ehh i prefer steam sales. No risk and all my friends play there.
Mafia is good as long as you're not looking for a GTA clone. It's very anti open world. I've played linear games that have more of an open world than Mafia has. It's truly story driven. But it has a great story, so that's fine. I'm loving it so far. I agree that the combat and AI need work. Especially enemy AI. Even the police are dumb.
Atleast the police has unlimited tickets
Here I am waiting for a remake of the Godfather.
Well, EA will never do that...
That game was absolute garbage. Mafia 1 and 2 are wayyyy better imho

Compared to Mafia series it was garbage but standing alone. It wasn’t bad. Not as detailed as Mafia clearly but still not a terrible game.
I never played any Mafia games and picked this one up on sale, my god hands down the best game I played in the last 2 years. Great game.
I loved this game when it originally hit PC. It’s such a cool environment and it rivaled anything Rockstar had done at the time. So glad that it was remastered.
It’s official, this game is GREAT! Especially for the price.
The combat is absolute trash though
Kilo 7 The melee? I agree.
The cover shooting is fucking amazing though
S M The shooting is great, and if you mean the melee then I guess it could be better, not that bad tho, and barely used.
@@Tyrhem lmao. There are people like me, who grew up with solid cover shooters, and yes, I would always recommend a controller for the best experience.
I don't know, but cover shooting is INFINITELY more fun to me than boring first person shooters
@@SM-or1wo I meant to cover shooting it was pretty clunky to me
Mafia 2 was my favorite, but I'm looking forward to playing this one again.
American Italian * correction
I loved it. Felt sad that the open world felt empty, I mean, no side missions.
The world is freaking gorgeous, it's a waste not have missions to go explore those magnificent sights.
I felt the story was on the shirt side. I would love doing Mafia stuff but still have the ability to go back to my job and do taxi.
I would love having more variety in missions, not just shooting but setting up explosives, hijacking from rich people, rob banks and stuff.
I know this is a remake of the original.
I felt the need for a proper prequel.
My uncle just bought me this game for Christmas, and I just wanted to check it out before I play it.!!
Finished the game today. It’s a good remake. Driving is awesome. Story is good as the old one. 10 hours gameplay for the story. But I highly recommend it for you to buy.
i had to order trilogy from overseas so i hope it was worth it,thanks for sharing
RE-L Mayer you made a good choice.
Title should've been "Before you forget-a-baaaaaahht-it"
Personally, I think the game is infinitely improved playing on Hard or Classic difficulty. The difficulty can make the shooting sections anxiety inducing from looking for health packs and having to deal in exclusively head shots to have enough ammo to clear certain areas.
I was stuck on that race for damn near 3 weeks. 🤣
Every time someone told Tommy to drive, I was waiting for him to go "Oh, make the Taxi guy drive. Funny fellas, real funny."
As somebody who’s from Chicago the only guy who pulled the accent off so far is Don Salieri
This game took me by surprise when I first play this. As someone who never played the previous game, this is a well written game with each character has it's own weight. The story is great too and the visuals are so beautiful. Overall 10/10 game, highly recommended.
I can't wait to play it! I'm such a fan of anything got to do with the mafia genre if done right. I so badly also want the godfather games to be remade, it was such an awesome experience to me and I'm sure others as well, it just hits different. The music, the story and rising up the ranks was just something else.
best review on this game (ie fairest and most comprehensive) i've encountered. Thank you for that. *SUBSCRIBED*
“before you buy” *is already downloading with my pre-order bonus*
update* be wary of playing it on classical. i’m stuck on this part of the game where you’re given, and i’m not exaggerating here, 3 to 6 seconds to shoot precise points on a armored truck while you’re in a swerving vehicle and the truck itself is swerving while also shooting back at you
Just bought the Mafia Trilogy so im bout to get into it on stream. Can't wait!!!
I bought this a month ago, Alan Wake 2, and Expeditions (Snowrunner game) is coming out in a week. However, I’ve been playing nothing but RDR2 trying to 100% it. Someday I’ll get around to this game and the others 😅
This game is fantastic and the story is top notch. I never had a chance to play the Mafia games back in the day and Mafia 1 pleasantly surprised me. Running through 2 now and enjoying it just as much.
Played on PS4 for the first time and this game is amazing. The atmosphere and characters are all so wonderfully done, plus the game is absolutely gorgeous.
