best game ever made

Friend got me this one, honestly I was not expecting to like it as much as I did... The story is very well crafted with exciting plot twists and a great build of characters and drama to keep things moving and exciting. The fighting itself is very very cool, breaker style FTW no doubt! Sometimes on PC controls would be slightly awkward and there would be the odd softlock. Realistically speaking the game is ideally meant for a controller, which you can still use on a PC. Other than that, a great experience and one which I wholeheartedly recommend... All be if you want a enjoyable story/fighting game!

I'm coming for you Steve

Good, as long as your RNG and aim are on good form!

cool tbh

bruh

I f♥♥♥♥ing hate that racing mission-

All jokes aside this game was really what I could of hoped for from a remake, there are a few things here and there which I will get into but overall I think Hangar 13 really got themselves sorted out for this release!
I watched the original Mafia play-through on YouTube some years ago, I didn't buy it as I couldn't justify it for the age it was released, although for its time it was something else!
Sure enough time passed and the remake announcement was released! I wanted to keep my expectations measured due to Mafia 3s underwhelming success and issues along with the rushed Mafia 2 remake but I couldn't help but have good hopes. The release day came and with the good reviews coming in and the asking price of about thirty five pounds, I was in.
The performance was great, the game never dropped in frames and looked really nice! I had it on max settings with a 1080ti at 1440p and it was a great experience, the visuals and really strong lip syncing technology accompanied the story/cut-scenes really well. It almost felt like a mafia movie. The story itself was very strong, they had tastefully changed some things from the original which I respected with the story, so previous players would have a slightly different experience story wise. The gameplay was a lot of fun with some challenging shootouts, steadily getting harder from the start which was great, the slightly harder shooting from other games was also appreciated along with a proper cover and aiming system! I did miss the fact that your accomplices could die in shootouts, increasing the challenge and some parts of the soundtrack, but the music still held up very well. The difficulty was good, I played it on hard with simulated police which I would probably recommend for previous players. I appreciated the driving system respect with manual options and the limiter being present along with fuel to monitor and refill. The car encyclopedia with a race track to tests all your cars out and a free ride mode for free roaming was also greatly appreciated. Other than wishing there were more shops to visit like in Mafia 2, It has been a really good release and an 8.5/10 from me!
