Mafia II [2010]


Recommended Posts

I've only just got round to playing this game after almost a decade and it's one of the best I have ever experienced in a long time. Not sure if anyone else has played it as it's a bit of a hidden gem at a time when COD was dominating gaming and GTA 4 was the biggest game of its kind. The story is incredibly well-written as is the character dialogue. The visuals still hold up today and the gameplay is excellent with some highly immersive combat and scenery destruction. The fictional city is beautiful and driving is decent too. 

 

Unlike GTA which is an open-ended sandbox, this is a chapter-based game with fixed missions. It's more linear and shorter but equally it keeps you glued into the story and the missions flowing rather than simply parading around a map of icons at your own pace. It is still open world and you can do where you want and how you want but it's not free roam in the typical sense.  I'd definitely recommend picking it up in the Steam Sale on PC as it's tremendous fun that a lot of people may have overlooked due to a wealth of other big games at the time.

 

Here's some screenshots I took

I had to see how the combat mechanics worked before deciding if it was playable. I shot a bunch of Italian fascists as my first action in the game. Sold[emoji39]

The graphics are nice and gameplay smooth, plus a decent story.
