"I've killed alot of people in my line of work, but this one. this ones for me."
lets start off by saying that i've never played the first Mafia game, but thats alright because in this game you don't need to as its an entirely different story. You play as Vito Scalleta born to a poor Sicilian family, his dad Decides to move to america in the 1920's to start a new life. there Vito realizes he still can't escape a life of poverty. after learning that his father is deep in dept, he decides to join the Mafia business to make a quick buck, there Vitos Dirty work makes him became entangled into deep troubles and the story escalates from there.
the environments look fantastic and feel vibrant, giving that 1950's feel to it. however, the grass is the only Graphical term letting the game down. there are various 1950 style cars adding to the environment. when your car runs out of petrol you need to buy petrol, so that adds a realistic element. the shooting Mechanics feel suitable to the game and easy to understand just peek out of cover, aim and shoot. the way the character walks sometimes can feel stiff and jerky. there is now a speed limiter, so if you go over the speed limit you are prone to getting arrested, unless you bribe the cops with money, or change your clothes that night won't be forgotton by the sergant. the fighting mechanics are also easy to get to Gripes with.
you can Hijack cars, Sell cars, or even rob cash registers. whoop-de-do! besides that i feel the need to do those things incredibly low since your not going to need any things to spend your hard-earned cash on. my main complaint is that the game wants too be too much like a sandbox title with huge open areas and a large map. the only thing to be concerned about is doing the story missions, and collecting playboys and wanted posters, so i feel that large open space of the game went to waste. but don't let that put you off as the game has a deep engaging story and fun gameplay mechanics, but i overall i feel abit let down and thought they could much more with the game.
