    12 hours of pure fun, just incredible, i felt like i was watching a Godfather like movie were i could interact with it, simply amazing, beautifull game.
    I recomend it but 40 bucks might be too much for some, soo wait for a sale and get it for 10/20 bucks

    This game was made incomplete in everything! Just a linear short story, not completely from the original version, but just messed up everything. There is not even a patch and add-ons for so much time. I do not advise you to spoil your impressions, But rather play the original version!

    The interface is wonderful. You have so much information immediately available to you. Google Maps always has a minimap in the lower left corner, which gives you a good overview of the area. Getting information about people gives you a clear, clear window. Hacking offers a menu with easily recognizable icons, so you always know what your button presses will do.

    Из минусов:
    - в игре нет адекватного обучения, которое раскрывало бы КАК надо играть в игру, например что бы пройти гонку необходимо использовать кнопку тарана для успешных поворотов, но игра этому не обучает и в итоге тыкаешься час в заносах и полном непонимании "что не так?", зато как ради интереса нажимаешь заветную кнопку, то "легендарная" по сложности гонка проходится с пары попыток. В той же опере и боевая система, в миссии где надо уделать в рукопашку челов приставучих к Саре, если не знать как ПРАВИЛЬНО драться, то бой превращается в цирк длинною в 30 минут с онли закликиванием.
    - персонаж преступно долго умирает, драматично падая на землю, зачем почему? Дико тормозит темп игры, ничего кроме раздражения и духоты не вызывает.
    - в игру надобавляли всяких доп. механик: взлом замков, угоны, таскания тел и прочее, которые бы пригодились для открытого мира, мир есть, но открыт ли он? Игра кидает игрока от миссии к миссии и изучать город нет возможности, да и нужно ли? Нет он пуст, а следовательно и механики практически полностью не юзабельны.
    - унылое радио, которое не задает атмосферы и вызывает только желание выключить его.
    - из серьезного криминального произведения с топовыми и колоритными персонажами, игра превратилась в легкий боевичек потеряв свой шарм. Еще и были в корне изменены некоторые ключевые персонажи.

    Из плюсов:
    - приятная стрельба, которая при классическом уровне сложности чувствуется с легким налетом челенджа.
    - атмосферный город, по которому приятно кататься во время выполнения миссий.
    - прикольная система копов, которые тригерятся на превышение скорости и другие легкие нарушения (плюс реализм).
    - насыщенный сюжет полный экшеновых событий (но оригинал лучше).

    Unrealistic physics, definitely worse gameplay than the original game had (in 18 years, that’s something to say), NPCs just keep running/shooting when you shoot in them. Stupid hitboxes.

    Acting is good, changes in story sequences are a nice touch.

    Not a remake but a reimagination of Mafia The City of Lost Heaven.

    Positives: 1) Great graphics. 2) Detailed environments. 3) Cars look and sound great. 4) They tried to fill plot holes and fix some oddities in the story. Negatives: 1) Lack of atmosphere. 2) Poor choice of music. Especially hated the music in racing mission because it sounds like it's from a generic family,    Not a remake but a reimagination of Mafia The City of Lost Heaven.

    Positives:
    1) Great graphics.
    2) Detailed environments.
    3) Cars look and sound great.
    4) They tried to fill plot holes and fix some oddities in the story.

    Negatives:
    1) Lack of atmosphere.
    2) Poor choice of music. Especially hated the music in racing mission because it sounds like it's from a generic family, children friendly comedy, adventure movie and not a fun and exciting racing music. Driving music is very boring background noise and nothing more. Many missions have weird unfitting music. Overall music is not terrible but not good either.
    3) Guns sound pathetic, weak. Original game had great gun sounds compared to this.
    4) Gunplay is very generic and overall boring. It feels like you are shooting a BB gun.
    5) Missions are not true to the original. Many small and big elements get changed, replaced or just removed. Even things that do not need any tweaking at all. Some of the environments are mirrored for no reason and take away from the original experience. Many action scenes are overdone and make it look and feel like any other generic shooter game etc.

    But here is the worst offense.
    6) Characters... Why?
    Paulie is so annoying that he actually becomes obnoxious. Especially his new voice and face which I hate.
    Sam is nothing like he was before.
    Don Salieri is meh at best.
    Vincenzo is now some weird mentally ill gun nut.
    Frank is too weird and creepy. He was a genuinely nice guy before.
    Tom... is nothing like he was before. Now he is nothing more than a thug.

    Oh! Ralph is decent and Sarah is actually nice. I like her.

    Overall this game is worth 5/10, maybe 6/10 at most. But I'm forced to give this 0/10 simply because there are people who give it 9/10 and 10/10 for no good reason. Essentially this is like Steams voting system. You either give it thumbs up or thumbs down and nothing inbetween.

    Original has many flaws, but the storytelling and immersion made me forgive the shortcoming, with the remake, it is the other way around. Unimportant things got improved, important ones got watered down.

    Maybe if I have not known original I would enjoy the game more, but I think I would still forget about story pretty fast, In comparsion it is not as memorable and there is definately much less attachment to it.

    From the technical side, I got stable FPS, game jsut was breaking down when I would minimalize it during the cutscene, hard restart was needed. But it was playable enough, not the worth thing around.    … Expand

    Like most of the reviews I'll happily admit that the world of Lost Heaven is a pretty one and the voice acting and storyline are good, however there's just not enough here to warrant the 10/10 reviews I keep seeing.

    I enjoyed it, but that's half the problem, it feels like a hugely missed opportunity. I really wanted to immerse myself in the world, but with clunky driving physics, sloppy aiming, dire combat options, it just never let me become part of the world.

    Even if they'd crowbarred in some of the open world bits of Mafia 3 into it I could've enjoyed it a whole lot more. If you loved the original then it's fine for for the sake of nostalgia, but don't be fooled by the 10/10 reviews, it's still an old game at its bones and it shows.

    - Broken driving physics, every aspect of the driving is profoundly worse than the original, not simulation based at all - instead we get **** semi-sim from Mafia 2. I wrote a bunch of hate here before I edited, but let me just paraphrase instead.

    The original Mafia (2002) was THE 'perfect' PC game and in many ways still is; it combined fine simulation and physics elements in both the gunplay and driving - being derived / tweaked from the fantastic 'hidden and dangerous' engine. Driving - you could even use an FFB wheel accurately, perform true drifts, clutch oversteer, liftoff oversteer, countersteer, handbreaking. The AI, being again from a milsim was robust. I could go on at length here.... but lets just end with this thought;

    Unfortunately due to the machinations of this industry - most of the older devs (globally) capable of recreating such a fine game, have long moved on to fintech/banking. The skills, dedication and talent required to 'remake' this game just don't exist anymore. Retaining the former Illusion Softworks lead is just not enough; Hanger 13 needs real talent in numbers and it just doesn't exist, not with my generation (millennial). I'm sorry...    … Expand

I love especially car engine sounds and when you turn off the engine, you can hear even the car cooling down. However, the game feels pretty much blurry like in Mafia 3 despite I am running the game at 4K resolution, so I have to use a 3rd party tool for image sharpening to improve the image quality. Overall the game looks much better than the original mafia, BUT it is not as good as the game from 2002. In original game, you had more things to do. You had a tutorial which helped you how to play, in story you had very nice Lucas Bertone missions and after you finished the game, you could play extreme ride. These parts are unfortunately missing in the new remake. The campaign is shortened a little bit and you can finish the game much sooner what is pity. You can even play the game with Czech dubbing which is also amazing!

    There are some details which I miss compared to the old game. For example, you do not have your cars parked behind the Salieri's bar and instead you have stupid and very simple list of cars like in Mafia II for example. I would recommend you to buy this game, it is very nice, but I can give it 7 or 8 points out of 10.

    Mafia allowed us to explore more than what we could only imagine, movies like the Godfather gave us a little bit of and idea of how the italian mafia really used to run the streets back in the old days,and Mafia gave us an even greater understanding of what one of the darkest periods of our country really looked like, the shootouts, the sitdowns , the drama ,and such realistic driving mechanichs, made us feel like we were in a Martin Scorsese movie. But not everything is great in paradise, even thought the game is great the mechanics could've been improved, there's a couple little errors in the game that became just downright infuriating

    The melee for example is one area of the game must players probably avoided , it was just broken there's just not much to say about it, you'd have to experience it to understand , aside form the meele there's a couple other things in the game that just really get frustrating,civilian drivers purposely wrecking into you in the middle of a chase or getaway,the lack of weapon and medkit selections just get old quick. Another area of the game that's hard to understand is why they wouldn't implement the free roam mode into the actual gameplay itself, let's face it not everyone is gonna roam around the game and not get anything done story wise, we are here for the story mainly, and not everyone is going to go back and just play the free roam once you have finished the game, that was a real buzzkill for players who wanted to get an immersive experience like Mafia 2, the fact that we can't even customize Tommy's outfit in the main game is just way too linear for me, like come on one of the best features Mafia has is the classy mobster looks you can give your character.

    Even though the game is everything a remake should be i feel like 2k could've done better, they could've made this remake truly great had the game been a little bit more thought out and polished before it's realease. Don't get me wrong the game is amazing , the graphics are outstanding and the story line is great, but with the standards set by Mafia 2 this one fell a little short,2k could've really made a masterpiece had team not get lazy towards the end and rushed to get the game out, and even though the bugs and glitches that persisted throught the game were not game breaking , the game itself failed to deliver a truly Mafia experience and gave more us more of a story driven game that's more like a movie and with doing so took many of the features that we loved about the game out hence free roam and character customization when they didn't really needed to be taken out. If Hangar 13 really wanted to give us that movie like experience they should've looked at similiar recent games that played like a movie and also gave the players more freedom to interact with the world.    … Expand

    Disappointment. New Scenario Mafia1 looks very weak, so it's easy weak for 2020. Nothing is playable other than a limited scenario that hasn't even improved in this game, on the contrary, it is a reduction and simplification of the game that does not improve in general terms...

A silly remake from the most perfect game ever made. Seriously guys... what happens to industry? People don't read books and watch movies anymore? Why cant people recognize which is bad or good writen? Despite of this, this game is beautiful and the mecanics improved. The quest design improved lot of times, but i miss the "return to home" or "return to salieris bar" pacing quests.

    Mafia: Definitive Edition is a well-made game that oozes with atmosphere and character.

    I'm not a newcomer to the Mafia series, however, I have never played the original Mafia from 2002. Therefore, I could enjoy the story of Tommy Angelo without any bias or prejudice.

    The story is superb; I could barely put down my controller because it was just so captivating. I can't tell you anything about how it compares to the original story, but I do know that this re-written game is a masterpiece.
    The beautifully crafted city of Lost Heaven is an authentic backdrop for the events that take place in the game. As you drive from Salieri's Bar to the mission marker, you can listen to period-accurate music on the radio, news broadcasts, and even a baseball game. Often times, when I had already arrived at my destination, I would park my car and listen for the news anchor to finish his segment on the Great Depression, the rise of Adolf Hitler in Germany, the weather, or the goings-on in Lost Heaven, Empire Bay, and even New Bordeaux.
    It's these little details that make the world in this game feel real and grounded.

    After I had finished the story, I was sad that it was over so quickly; after only about 10 hours, the campaign was done. I thought the game was over for me, but then I played the Freeride mode and was amazed by the number of extra missions and challenges the game had to offer.

    Now, many people are unhappy that the game has borrowed many aspects from Mafia 3, but I don't feel that way. Hangar 13 didn't copy and paste assets, no, they took what they had, improved it something fierce, and implemented it in the Definitive Edition of Mafia. The gunplay? Improved. The lighting? Improved. Performance? Improved. Gameplay? Improved. AI? Improved.

    Not a single thing about this game displeases me and I can only recommend to anyone to play it. Be it for the amazing story, the beautiful city to explore, the fantastic soundtrack or simply the gorgeous-looking cars - play it.

    A little personal note I would like to add - there are an awful lot of 0-point reviews on this game that are mostly people saying "Oh, I'm not happy with the way the camera works, 0 points." or "All in all I like it, but they changed the way Tommy looks, 0/10". And I just have to ask - who writes a review and judges the entire game by one fault?    … Expand

    I would like to start by saying that the original Mafia is in my top 3 games of all time, I have completed it countless times, and I consider it a masterpiece.

    With that out of the way, I think this remake is a masterpiece on its own. Some of the criticism I have read was that the feel of the story is different and that the authors missed the point of the original. While the tone is indeed very different, I think this was done deliberately and not because the authors of the remake did not understand the original.

    This is a much darker and grim take on the original story and, in my opinion, a more realistic take. Gone is the feeling of an era of "gentlemen" gangsters. During many missions, you will feel bad about your actions and Tommy is portrayed as a much more conflicted character other than a good guy who just got together with bad company. All of the characters are much more developed and it really helps with fleshing out the gangster underworld. Not all changes to the story and characters are for the better in my opinion, but overall it still works very well.

    I played on the classic difficulty and it was an ideal challenge, I highly recommend you choose this difficulty if you have played the original Mafia (the infamous race still took me a few tries). The combat is kind of a generic cover shooter, but it works really well and I have enjoyed it.

    The few things I missed were Luca Bertone's side quests which have been reduced to just finding a hidden car in the world. I also missed the original music.

    Overall, I highly recommend this game both for new players and for people who have played the original! I have not had this much fun in a game in a long time. If you have played the original, just be ready to accept the much darker narrative.    … Expand

    MAFIA 1 and 2 were polished and perfect for their times. Sure console ports had performance issues, but these new games are buggy and busted to the core.    … Expand

    Excellent remake of a classic. Voice acting and story are topnotch. The gunplay is similar to the level of Max Payne games ; extremely fun and satisfying.
    Few issues with the game is that, during my playthrough, it crashed few times.

Takva je Mafia: Defintive Edition. Uzela mi je nešto više od 12 sati, vratila u prošlost, ispunila srce radošću i iznjedrila suzu na oku krajem igre. Uvela nove djelove priče koja je sada osebujnija i posebnija. Kada igra u tebi probudi leptiriće u trbuhu, znaš da igraš jedno posebno remek djelo. Ne igra nije savršena, nije ni blizu nekih vrhunskih naslova koji baš i nemaju mane, no ova igra kao i njen original imaju jednu posebnu dušu. To je igra kakvih nema baš u današnje vrijeme i tako linearni naslovi su stvarno rijetkost te su u današnje vrijeme financijski gledano ne isplativi. No ovo je igra za našu dušu i nas fanove tih old school igara, gdje je nekakav COOP, multiplayer i mikrotransakcije nepoznat pojam. Hvala Hangar 13 što je ova igra dostojna originala.… Expand

It is budget game made in two years and itr is still better tbhan original in every single way. Sure... there is few things that could be done better or closer to original but why to play the same game again and again? This is not a remaster. It is remake. Characters are way deeper, dialogs are more consistent and more relevant. Less cringe, dumb and stupid. City and mission locations are literally from another dimension, . just like world and gameplay details. There is depth added to the time period with prohibition and financial crisis - both mentioned in original but it was all. Game fills a lot of holes. If there is something for you it is not just "there" but it has a story or sequence. NPC finally just do not waste time by standing somewhere for years in case gangsters would need some info etc. Gameplay is nice and smooth. Game is hard on classic difficulty - way more than ortiginal game. (You could do all the missions without taking a single hit in Mafia CoLH). AI is finally at least little bit smart and realistic - if they don´t see you change cover they presume you are still there and you can kick their ass from back - no supernatural "i know where you are all the time". and way more. Developers got rid of Lucas fetch and gave you collectibles instead of draging you around the map three times to get car you will never use. There is few flaws - throwing animation is dreadful, some bushes are made from concrete, there is no driving to bar after mission, shoting from car is made for kindergarten and thei got rid of few dumb characters like yellow pete, idiot joe or big dick. Overall it is really nice little budget game for two thirtd of the AAA price and so close to 9/10 but it is 8/10 in this condition - hope we will get some DLCs becouse it would be waste of really nice city to just say the same old, overplayed and boring story - even reimagined. But more important is: This game makes the original game like 5/10 or less.… Expand

    Biggest strength of Mafia Definitive Edition is it's story. Writing is very solid and you feel engrossed in the narrative, making you feel like you're really a part of an actual 1930's italian mob family. The performances of the actors are excellent aswell, which are translated into the well crafted cutscenes.
    The story for the very most part focuses on Tommy's life as a mobster, and very little as a family man, and i wished it did more on the latter. Apart from some scenes with his wife, you never see his children, so it somewhat takes away from seeing what Tommy actually has on stake with the way he lives.
    The story's structure can be somewhat confusing though, as the way chapters work, some plotholes can become quite noticeable, especially towards the end of the game, where a major turn of events happen off screen in how Salieri starts doing his business, that will change Tommy's outlook on the family and mobster life as a whole.
    During the story, there are a few instances of pretty big difficulty spikes, such as the mission where an armored cop vehicle chases you and which's turret you must disable, i had to lower the difficulty to lowest possible one to pass this section, it was just insane.

    Lost Heaven of course is a character of the game in it's own right, and Hangar 13 really did an admirable job recreating the time period of a major midwestern 1930's american city. There's good amount of detail put around every corner to make the game world feel believable and lived in. Whenever i was not in a hurry, i simply walked and took in the sights.
    Unfortunetly for all it's glamour, it doesnt make up for an exciting open world game to play around in. The map is very restrictive in where you can go, bushes around the roads will stop a tank in it's tracks, gates and fences around most places cant be scaled, trains cant be boarded and their stations are locked, despite NPC's roaming around on their platforms, and Tommy cant swim, so you cant reach something you see across a water body. Then again, that kind of lacking open world gameplay has been an issue in Mafia 2 and 3 aswell. The open world is there to mainly house the story.

    Gameplay is where things become more mixed. At it's core the gameplay in this remake is an evolution of Mafia 3. One of the most important things in Mafia series have been driving mechanics, and Mafia remake more/less nails the driving feel. I havent experienced such solid driving model in a non-racing game since...Mafia 2 actually. The cars in the game feel pretty grounded and like they actually are bound by laws of the physics, unlike how in most of other open world games that involve driving, where cars feel almost weightless, with floaty handling, looking at you Watch Dogs.
    The cover based combat as i've observed has upset some fans of the classic game, and i totally understand where they're coming from. You cant even manually crouch in the game, which could've enabled using cover on your own volition. The combat mechanics in the remake are far from leading in it's class aswell, they feel kinda stiff and there is a lack of feedback from guns. Not helping are the lackluster gun sound effects. There are also no non-lethal takedowns, i felt rather bad about myself when i needed to kill a poor maid and a wife at house where i just needed to steal something, so they wouldnt raise alarm. A dumb gameplay oversight on Hanager 13's part, aswell as narrative one, since killing innocent women conflicts with Tommy's character in another mission.
    Another annoyance is how you need to toggle the walking command, why was there no 'Hold Down' option ? It was so irritating. Same goes for sprinting, basic stuff like intuitive main movement mechanics should be an easy thing to do in this day and age.

    I got Mafia DE assuming it supports Windows 7, afterall it's a DX11 game, why shouldnt it, right ? Well upon firing up the game i discovered it doesnt officially support W7. Luckily it does support W7 atleast unffocially, meaning it runs on the dated, but still superior OS, as i found out thanks to some cool people on Steam forums. You just need to download some files and place them in the game's folder and happy gaming. Bad news is the game only runs in windowed mode on W7, robbing some of that immersion factor. Why, Hangar 13, cant you officially support a freakin DX11 game on Windows 7 ?

    With all that out of the way, i want to say that i still had a pretty decent time with Mafia Definitive Edition, the story, writing, performances of the cast and the recreation of the time period pulled the game through.    … Expand

Gameplay-wise you have third person shooter with 6 guns out of which you have 3 distinct types. Fights happen in samey buildings such as cafes, warehouses, docks without much level design variety. In my opinion, pulling the trigger isn't fun and missions are forgettable. The only aspect of the gameplay i liked is driving. Car handles realistically and driving is enjoyable (on simulation settings). Plot is good on it's own, execution not so much. Many tonal inconsistencies and the ending is abrupt, motivation of the characters stretched so hard that shaolin monk would be jealous. I don't think i will remember even playing this game say 10 months later. Case in point that 1. improving graphics isn't always enough for a good remake 2. duckling syndrome hits hard sometimes. I do understand that for some people this was the first serious game with plot and character development, but these story and gameplay just don't stand the test of time. These were good 20 years back, when games only started dipping their toes into telling anything meaningful, not anymore though.… Expand

    This is a full-fledged, honest to God remake. Some changes to the story will upset hardcore fans, but I think this approach is absolutely justified. Even though this remake is not as amazing as new versions of Resident Evil 2 and Final Fantasy 7, it’s still a worthy update.

    The main difference between the remake and the original game is that the latter was outstanding for its time, while the Definitive Edition is “merely” good. Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s not worth your time. What’s crucial here is the fact that Hangar 13 approached the original’s narrative with proper respect and refrained from changing it too much. Mafia: Definitive Edition might not be remarkable as an open-world action game, but it still has the story worthy of the most revered gangster movies. [12/2020, p.28]

    Mafia: Definitive Edition is a remake of mixed flavours. Some elements are just as they used to be, and it's great. Some elements are just as they used to be, and it's awful. Mixture of aged mechanics and amazing graphics, new voices, great old story and some added, yet bad storylines, make it not such a perfect remake. But it sure is worth your time, whether you are a fan of the original or not. The moral of the story survived in all its glory, just be sure to focus your attention to the details where Mafia used to and still shines the most.
