Re: Mafia II

I'm really looking forward to Mafia 2, I thought the original was a great game...As for Godfather 2 I also thought it was a stinker..

Re: Mafia II

i have to disagree about godfather 2, while i do agree it's not for everyone some people enjoyed it, including me, it wasn't as hard to play as the first godfather game but still enjoyable, i also played the first mafia game and enjoyed that too.

looking forward to this game.

Re: Mafia II

enjoyed playing godfather II but if had choice to go back I wouldn't buy it again, was not a next gen title compared to how good Mafia II looks !

Re: Mafia II (UK Release: TBA)

Wow, sounds excellent. Personally, I like the fact the game has a slower, more deliberate pacing.

Hurrah Dev video II -

Finally some new stuff

Excellent, theyve got useable trunks on cars! Something I believe GTAIV should have had, Well you can put a body in the boot at least, hopefully you can store weapons in there also.. here's hoping!

Ummm. There might be a Special and a Collector's Edition from what I'm reading.

"THE MAFIA II COLLECTOR’S EDITION includes a brushed metallic SteelBook Casing with a debossed logo and exclusive art of Vito and Joe. Inside you’ll find a 100–page photo album–style hardcover artbook, a CD of the Mafia II Orchestral Score performed by the Prague FILMHarmonic Orchestra, a map of Empire Bay printed on high quality, tear–resistant paper, and the Made Man Pack downloadable content which includes two new suits for Vito."

That last quote is taken from 2K's email flyer.

Collector's Ed is £54.95 at Zavvi, £49.99 at Play.

Think I'd trade RDR in for this, that bit when he kicks the door in and shoots up the bar made me decide!

cant believe prople thought GF was a good game?! Not even bothered with number 2 as the 1st was so bad and I'm a HUGE Godfather fan!


Played every Mafia based game ever out apart from the Facebook game and that old RTS. I've also watched every Mafia based film I have found ad IMHO the 1st Mafia game was AWESOME...the best Mafia film NEVER made! I'm praying this one is half as good as the first!
