I agree, blasting a pre-war race car through the streets was nothing short of fantastic. Why couldn't they just build off of the first game, instead of creating basically, something completely unrelated, I mean, this is based in the 50's for one, which in itself is a fail because the Mafia's main operating years were in the 20's and 30's before WW2.
It sure was, but why isnt there a free roam modus. Thats the only thing which rates the game from 90/100 to 80/100
Got the game today?
WORD!...From the first impression,: absolutely fantastic, just how all the world is evolving around you, people fighting, throwing vases through windows etc(i think that rockstar games have something to learn from here). I was hooked into that world within a second...the winter looked so....real, yes. I can't understand how you lads keep calling this game a busllsh*t....seriously, reading your comments....
Just wait until your Rose Tinted shades wear off. Then you will start to see how much of a disappointment the game really is. For 8 years of development, they could of added many more features quite easily, Free Roam and Multiplayer could of been done in that time. Just seems to me like they concentrated a little too much on the Story, and not enough on what players can do after.
I'm perfectly happy with games like this concentrating on the story.
It would be just another GTA with multiplayer and a lot of minigames to play.
The story isn't as good as Mafia 1 though.

I happily prefer Mafia II without multiplayer, why? Because such mindless fun is best in GTA, whereas a 50's city as the back drop of a captive story shouldn't be an open playground for messing around.
SPOILERS:
Mafia 1 recap :
Tommy is a nobody, until he gets hooked up with the mafia, where he finds Sam and Paulie. They all live happily ever after, apart from Tommy screwing up all the time. Eventually Tommy and Paulie decide to do something stupid behind their bosses back, Sam rats them out and gets killed for it, and Paulie dies.
Mafia 2 recap:
Vito is a nobody, until he gets hooked up with the mafia, where he finds Joe (who he knew before, this time) and Henry. They all live happily ever after, apart from Vito screwing up all the time. Eventually Vito and Joe decide to do something stupid behind their bosses back, Henry rats them out (to the feds this time) and gets killed for it (not by the protagonist this time), and Joe dies (after the final mission this time).
Not seeing much difference to be honest.
Bioware syndrom, much?
Have you actually tried "Freeride extreme" in mafia 1? There's enough people to fill a country who'd tell you you're dead wrong. (and then flame you to death)
Of course, But all I did was drive around in the country side taking in the views, not running over every pedestrian. For me it isn't a game for dicking about without consequences and killing little whiny kids online.
I may get it JUST for that
Awesome!
Knew it was only a matter of days.
Now I can enjoy the game...

That's fun, even got all the cars in the garage!
You know what's fun? Get a truck, and park it somewhere with a high dock or something behind it, and then get a small car and drive it on the truck, and you have a car carrier.

I like "escape the hunter".
Joe basically follows you wherever you drive so we just do some crazy double stunts.

yo dawg, we herd yo like cars! Xd
Normal or deluxe?
Huh?
Its available in that Free Ride mod. Summer day.
I meant which version should I buy?
Ahhhh.
Dont know to be honest. Up to you.
IMO the 2 new cars are not worth it.
The digital stuff is pretty good though.

But the mod works on both versions?
Yes.
And you can do the stuff you can do in missions correct? (e.g. shops, interactive stuff)
Yeah, you can do everything you can while mission (except the mission ofcourse).
Woot!
can someone link to the mod please? I think I will get if if there is free roam
