    Gangsters 2 just guts the administration and throws in a huge quantity of low quality combat, making for a pretty lame game. Let's strap some cement boots on this one and let it sleep with the fishes.

    Heyyo, I love this game. Gangsters 1 was more complex which is true, but the tutorial sucked and the game had a crazy-steep learning curve.Heyyo, I love this game. Gangsters 1 was more complex which is true, but the tutorial sucked and the game had a crazy-steep learning curve. Thus far I love this game still more than Omerta City of Gangsters on release. If they touch up the combat? I'd consider it equalish for gameplay enjoyment... but this game has lots of charm. It's just fun getting a load of guys into a car and start doing some driveby's.

    To Bribe police? You need a Gangster with Charm ability (I think Level 4 is the first one you get one named "Tux" and it has to be high enough to work for certain Cheifs deputys etc.

    To put specialists into illegal setups in buildings? Go to the Illegal business tab, then select the specialists mini-tab, click the for a specialist and then click the "Deploy" button and he'll run there, so when capturing enemy businesses, be sure for ones with illegal setups that there's no enemy gangsters between your Office and the building, otherwise there's a good chance they'll get gunned down before making it there.

    As the campaign progresses you'll get more Gangsters with more abilities like "Assassinate" and "Kidnapping" which adds to the enjoyment of the game, but damn do missions get challenging.     … Full Review »

    I really don't know the number of times I have played the game from start until finish over the last decade. Great Game! I strongly recommendI really don't know the number of times I have played the game from start until finish over the last decade. Great Game! I strongly recommend it. I wish they were able to make a 3rd but that never happened, and won't happen. All we got was Omerta which is really really bad… Full Review »
