best mafia game i can’t wait to play it for the 3rd time
Second game is good, but the first game is a classic and remains the best of the series
Yeah, I personally love the second one but agree with what you said.
Let’s hope the forth one is in the works and will be awesome.
WITHOUT A DOUBT!
Mafia 1 is a masterpiece! I just last month played it again with the Community mod pack…amazing graphics overhaul! The amount of small details they put in that game back then is just plain incredible!
had more fun with 3. first one was great, second one was the most boring one.
To each their own. But Mafia 3 doesn’t have schit on Mafia 2. From details, characters, music, story. If someone only likes beautiful graphics, then i guess Mafia 3 is the perfect game.
mafia 2 is the same, it’s boring as hell.
Never found that game boring. Sure, there are not many things to do, for that matter i wouldn’t even call it an open world game, due to the lack of quests / mini games. But i loved those small details. People chatting, random people falling due to the snow, And many other details. I felt that those small details lack in Mafia 3.
If i wanted story from video games then i’d be watching a movie not playing games. if a game doesn’t allow me to skip its story and cutscenes, i delete it from my hard drive instantly.
so what remains (npcs chatting and falling) is barely going to convince anyone like me that mafia 2 is a good game because it’s not.
Then you’d be better off with a multiplayer game, or a game that does not care on it’s story, or characters. Like Mafia 3 for exemple. What’s the point of having a single-player game, if you want to skip its story? Cutscenes are one thing, and they should always be skipable if the player wants.
Well, i’m not trying to convince you. Most of the people who played the game didn’t need anyone to convince them, they found themselves the reason why they like it, why everyone loves Mafia 2 the most. As i did. After i played that clusterf**k of a game, Mafia 3, i started Mafia 2. And oh boy, it was a pleasant surprise. Mafia 3 felt like such a downgrade.
i do play multiplayer games more than single player games because single player games are marketed toward autists and weirdos.
What makes you say that? I mean, some MP games like CS GO or TF2 are fun and all, but for me, nothing can beat a good, immsersive single-player game.
games can’t be immersive anymore. they look dull, uninspired and unpleasing and play like a chore.
i barely play video games, i just play them for half an hour then i forget about them even when they’re good by modern standards.
you want to talk about immersive then go play gothic 1 and 2.
Ah youre a fortnite kid…. got it.
my sim card is probably older than you but ok.
Nope
yes
fortnite.
no
Repeating the same thing over and over, it looks like trolling.
stfu
See? It does look like low-cost trolling.
Come on, try harder.
Remember last time when you posted that jews started all wars?
what did you smoke abdul?
Why do you call ME Abdul? You’re the one who posted hundreds of “Allah aqbar” yesterday, after Iran launched missiles. Anyway, it’s okay, I won’t tell your parents you converted to islam.
I call you abdul because you have logged in with uae ip before which even used as a proxy, it sure is a weird server to choose. also disguising as a girl is a red flag, that’s usually done by fat men on the internet who have a thing for attracting little boys abdul.
i’m also glad about iran missiles, hope they kill as many american soldiers as they can.
WTF how can you even know my ip? Oh wait, I know, it’s a trick so that I would tell you where I am. Damn stalker thirsty for waify, huh? Also, I’m really the girl in the picture.
good for you, you want some cookies?
Why don’t you take your cookie and slip it down the crack of my a*s?
SLOW. Like a sabre cat tears a deer.

The characters, music, and story were all far superior in 3. At least it was original instead of another Italian mob story knock off we’ve seen a million times. Mafia 2’s story was so hack they should have been sued for plagarism.
Original? Hahaha. Mafia 3? Don’t make me laugh. It’s a revenge story that was already made milions of times. With the most generic and poorly written characters. The only good thing about that game is Vito. Nothing else.
No small details, no interesting characters, no good story, NOTHING that made the first 2 games so good in the first place. There is a reason why that game in the Mafia community is the least favorite by the fans.
Well the music selection is great in Mafia 3.
Well, it uses what, music from the 90’s, 80’s? Of course it’s great. But i’m talking about the soundtrack. Not the music, the radio stations. Nothing beats the main menu theme from Mafia 2.
LMAO do you even know the subject you’re writing of?
Not really, sir. I only played Mafia 3 once, and it was really forgettable.
Mafia 3 was boring crap. Two may not have had as much to do in it’s open world but it’s story was better and it was not the same quests over and over again ad nauseam.
mafia 3 was boring but at least it took an hour to get to that point, mafia 2 is just pathetic.
Mafia 3 was the best of the 3 and I played them all at release. Mafia 3 is the only one that made me feel like an actual crime boss building and managing a criminal empire. No other game, even the GTA series, has done that nearly as well. On top of it the story was actually different instead of recycling the same tired old Italian mob stories we’ve seen a thousand times. # could get repetitive, but no more so than the first 2.
No… now we get the same old tired American mob stories, with a lot of fan service. Mafia 3 was not the best of them. Mafia 3 isn’t even better than the first one, let alone Mafia 2. Played Mafia 2 dozens of times, never got bored, nor felt that the game is repetitive. Can’t say the same thing about Mafia 3. Please, keep your opinion and your buggy mess you call me to yourself.

Mafia 3 is a downgrade. Nothing else brought on the table, besides pretty graphics which don’t matter.
Also don’t even let me get into the story or gameplay. Or the fact that this game is 60% cutscenes.
I had more fun with the first tbh. Mafia 2 was still great but it didn’t have the thematic consistency and cool little world interaction stuff of the first. Mafia 3 was just cookie cutter, boring SJWness and played like Saints Row without the goofy, fun factor.
1 is the best, i couldn’t care less about the other two.
Is that Lord’s Of The Ring soundtrack?
yeah, youtube is a hive of weirdos.
And Facebook and Twitter what is? Or Reddit?
Nothing wrong with the LOTR sountrack, i love the franchise, i just found it random to be in a Mafia 2 video.
yeah but using it on a video like this? pure autism.
That’s what i’m saying… I mean, if the video was about Middle-earth, or something related it would’ve made more sense. Mafia 2 and LOTR?… not really.

Would i still be able to use this?
This present is oversaturated trash.
Stick to this mod.
No. I like that Reshade.
That reshade looks nice but I don’t like the way he uses washed out settings in his examples to make his own reshade look better. I have Mafia II and it in no way looks as washed out as it does in his slider comparisons.

I have made a guide with this mod, i used screenshots from the original, and screenshots with the mod on. I guess he pushed the brightness to max, that’s why it looks so washed out. The vanilla game doesn’t look like that.
I do that most of the time with my games. But i really enjoyed this one. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ce03c81bc3e91dae90758565ec2ded4feef5fb76e28f20d0f7360248311d302d.jpg
Nice! One of the best games i’ve ever played!
Awesome. Good to see new mods for such a great game.

Would i still be able to use this?
terrible (both the game and the mod).
I’m surprise John not posting about nude mods from this game…
I’m one of the few that like Mafia 3, but I wont deny that Mafia 2 is the best in the series by a LARGE MARGIN….This looks amazing, can’t wait to shoot up sh*t and be a mafioso again…
I guess its time to replay this great game! I recently replayed Mafia 1 with the Community mod pack…it was AMAZING!
I guess its time to install this masterpiece of a game again 😀
Wow, the game has never look this good.?
Thanks for the tip, Johnny!
Just when I was looking for some good games to play while waiting for RE3 and CP2077.
Graphics were never Mafia 2’s problem. The empty world, the cliche characters, and the same tired recycled mob story we’ve seen a million times were the issue. 3 wasn’t perfect, but upon reflection, it got much more right than 1 or 2. 3 is the first mafia game, and maybe first game ever, that actually made me feel like I had control over my own criminal enterprise and could build it the way I wanted to. Did it get repetitive? Sure. What game doesn’t? If I was on a desert island and could have only one Mafia game, it would be 3 and it wouldn’t even be close.
