Waited and waited and waited for the definitive edition to on a deep sale, and it was finally 5 bucks, which I could stand to pay for. I'm happy to say this is still an absolute masterpiece. Haven't played it in a decade, but it holds up better than most new games.

Waited and waited and waited for the definitive edition to on a deep sale, and it was finally 5 bucks, which I could stand to pay for. I'm happy to say this is still an absolute masterpiece. Haven't played it in a decade, but it holds up better than most new games.
That being said, I do admit to feeling a little cheap when replaying and thusly regaining achievements for games I've already gotten achievements for. It just feels...like cheating, in a way? Padding my gamerscore with remakes and remasters.
It's one thing if a remaster or remake is a game that was released on an older console and didn't have achievements, like Voodoo Vince for instance, or the Battle for Bikini Bottom and Spyro Reignited releases, but when it's just another version of a game that already had gamerscore and achievements that I've accrued...it just feels cheap, man.
I made myself a promise that, except for the Alan Wake remaster, the only "remasters" I'd do on the xbox One would be trilogies; Bioshock, Mass Effect, etc, and so Mafia is a trilogy and thusly fits into that category, and it's great to be able to play Mafia 2 again, even if it doesn't seem all that extra polished from its original release, but I really do hate the idea of getting the exact same achievements I've already gotten. It just doesn't feel fair.
Maybe I'm just weird that way.

Finished with no DLCs.
Great story, but game is a bit clunky. Ending isn't the best, since we don't get to see how Joe Barbaro ends or Vito Scaletta. A lot of bugs too, not that fun on that part.
Overall good game from 2007, 7/10.

used to be my favorite game of all time but I have not played in a long time
Review brewster1134 1/5 · Oct 20, 2020
almost unplayable...
i got the trilogy, and Mafia 1 was EXCELLENT... so i was really excited for 2 and 3, but they are both awful. terrible controls, terrible graphics, terrible story/dialog. it's like they ACTUALLY remastered mafia 1 because it was so old, and then just re-rendered 2 and 3 or something. i feel cheated.

I heard so much about it in a positive way that made want to jump in MafiaII Remastered universe without ever playing the first one. I wasn't disappointed though the buggy mechanics made the experience a bit odd. The story is truly compeling but still feels like there is something missing in the end.

Mafia 2 tells a story of Vito Scalleta and his rise and fall within the mafia ranks.
The game looks similar to grand theft auto series but it's not open world game although it looks like one. The story is very linear and although you can change the way you approach one mission or the other and can drive around …
Mafia 2 tells a story of Vito Scalleta and his rise and fall within the mafia ranks.
The game looks similar to grand theft auto series but it's not open world game although it looks like one. The story is very linear and although you can change the way you approach one mission or the other and can drive around the town freely - in the end you will be bound to proceed to the next mission and the checkpoint.
The story is great. A very Godfather story of mafia - power struggles, assassinations and betrayal. There are no side quests and I would actual consider this a good thing. This way the story is more focused and does not loose your interest in it. The Empire Bay which looks like New York set in the 1940-50s looks amazing and has great feel to it. The soundtrack additionally sets the mood as well.
The game mechanics are on point. The driving feels good, shooting and action is both responsive and enjoyable. The array of weapons is good enough to enjoy. And there's nothing better than picking up tommy gun and shooting other mobsters.
Overall really good experience, wonderful story - really worth picking up.
