    All subsequent editions were embodied not for the sake of high-quality games, but only thought about the business of money in order to use this brand of the name Mafia) So this is the only original that to play to this day with great pleasure. (Such quality games are no longer made in the 2020s, and in 2002 they released this amazing masterpiece)

    Sene 1930; güzel bir hikaye, akılda kalıcı karakterler, etkileyici atmosfer, klasik araçlar, silahlar, kan, para, saygınlık ve özgürlük. Mafia günümüz için eskimiş olsa da, şansı hak eden bir yapım.

    The Mafia series is one of my favorite series of all time. The story is absolutely amazing and unforgettable. There are moments that make you cry and that you will really never forget. The characters and missions are also well written here. For me, the game deserves 9.5 / 10.

    Старая добрая mafia. Сюжет повествует о обычном таксисте, который по воле судьбы попадает в криминальную жизнь. Все персонажи прописаны, у каждого есть своя история. А это атмосфера 30-х годов... Вообщем 10 из 10.

The game is amazing at face value, even if you skim through the campaign and don't play even one side mission (referring to Lucas Bertone's ones, and others). However, it is only when you dig deeper, emerge yourself into the atmosphere & the climate of the '30s, and when you notice all the intricate mechanics that the devs put in this masterpiece, when you notice what a gem this is. I have been playing - sometimes casually, sometimes hardcore - the game for close to two decades now, and keep coming back to it, even as the life goes on with its own sets of challenges & news. I have played Mafia 2 & 3 & DE with hopes that even one of them comes close. None did. Mafia 1 will always be the game for me and I am extremely grateful to the devs for the work they put in this title. An absolute masterpiece that even in 2021 has an extremely dedicated speedrun player base that constantly reverse-engineer the game to find ways to beat it quicker (as well as a base of faithful players that keep on playing nearly two decades after its launch). I am pretty sure I will never be able to praise another game like this one ever again (though I hope I will!). For me, quite simply, this is the best game ever. Expand

    Perhaps there will be decent studios in the future that will take this game in the original to the new engine.

    Premise: I played it smooth, without mod.

    I finished this beautiful adventure on Friday 11 February 2022. Even if on a graphic level, given its age, it is no longer flawless, the game still has its own reason. Reserve certain goodies even today that leaves you speechless .. Interaction with the police is something crazy that no game today replicates. I spent hours spinning around

    Interaction with the police is something crazy that no game today replicates.
    I spent hours spinning around the map, darting at full speed just to be chased by the police and given me a ticket.
    Too bad that the limiter was only with the fixed speed at 60, there are no variants at 30 or 80.

    One of the biggest drawbacks in my opinion is that the AI of the allied NPCs is not at the top.
    Especially since you are accompanied on almost all missions.
    In many cases, missions fail more through their fault than the player's fault.

    Mafia 1 is an incredible game from 2002, and today you can play it well.

    Great atmosphere and story, amazing soundtracks, gameplay is ahead of its time with all the little features the developpers took care about. And i also love how almost every mission in the game is iconic in its own way, so you could remember all of them after completing the game quite a while ago, and that's what next Mafia games lack in my opinion.

И каково же было моё удивление: спустя почти два десятка лет первая часть выглядит и играется вполне впечатляюще. Во многом, конечно, благодаря сильному повествованию, выверенной режиссуре, бесчисленному количеству мелких деталей и бескомпромиссному геймдизайну Даниэля Вавры. После столь мощного оригинала, порезанная и хаотичная вторая часть резко упала в моих глазах. Ремейк хоть и сделан в целом качественно, но более голливудский лоск, динамичный темп и недостаток бюджета всё же не позволяет назвать его полной заменой оригинала. Я бы предпочёл чтобы им занимался всё-таки Вавра. Expand
