    This is why Mafia 2 had so little content.

    Mafia 2 was a good game that suffered from a lack of content, yes the story was good but it had to be because there was absolutely nothing else to do in the game. You may wonder how on earth they took 8 years to develop ... Read Full Review

    Not so bad, not so good. GTA IV alike and that's all

    I just finished this game last November 2017. This is the first Mafia I played. At first I am hoped due to good reviews. But as I played, it didn't impress me so well. Missions are very similar to GTA missions. Drugs, g... Read Full Review

    a great story, good characters, Mafia II is a great game.

    Mafia II is one of the most underestimated games in the games, few people play and did not go as well as it should in the reviews in metacritic, it's a game that calls GTA with Mafia, but the only similarity of Mafia wit... Read Full Review

    One of the best Mafia games ever made

    In the past, whenever a game was an open world, the guys called it GTA, so Mafia II is far from being a Mafia GTA, the game is very good, the plot is great, the characters are charismatic and very good, the beginning is ... Read Full Review

    More fun than it should have been

    For a 2010 game, the graphics leave a bit to be desired. The loading of a save game BEFORE you start the story mode is a little clunky until you get used to it. You can't save your progress, the game does it automaticall... Read Full Review
