    The remake has some good moments, but as original Mafia fan I couldn't say this game is for me. It's packed up with not necessary arcade content, the characteristics of the key characters are changed and they changed a original plot in some points. The game lost it's soul

    Free ride: There are no gangsters in the city to fight. Get nothing for entertainment in the city but only a few short missions as in the original. The city is not available for play anywhere, a tram with a train will not let me in (were in the original game trains) there is no weapons store, there is no money component of the game.
    I hoped that they would copy the plot in quality from full and supplement it in a new version, but it turned out to be another fake. The gaming industry of 2020, the mother of its publisher fools.

    Game cutscenes of the movie and fast passing in a day.
    In our years, they do not make high-quality games, only in 2002 the original version remains cult to this day. This Mafia Definitive Edition game has nothing more than a simplified scenario. For what an open walk, there the city is only a picture and nothing more.

    If you want to be very disappointed and play a linear fleeting story and in free mode to chase UFO in a dead ghost town - I think it is better to play the original and put on it an improved graphic mod to improve the graphics, which is available on the websites of the game Mafia-2002.
    I do not advise you to upset yourself, this deceptive DE edition.

    i do think the lucky b*stard mission changes is the most offensive they shorten that so hard
    that being said everything else is rather enjoyable besides some odd choices..
    Remember how Morello's brother survives multiple assassination attempts out of sheer luck?
    That's why his missions are called "Lucky B***ard". Well, the remake has reduced the
    number of assassination attempts (I think the one with the train doesn't happen at all) AND
    the events have been changed. In the original, Paulie tries to shoot Morello in front of a diner
    and his gun jams, but in this version, Tommy PREVENTS Paulie from shooting Morello
    because he's holding a woman hostage. This completely messes with the concept of him
    being lucky.
    They've also changed the circumstances behind the plot twist with (a major mistake, in my
    opinion), they've removed Yellow Pete, they've changed how the Death of Art begins,
    removed even from freeride trains with trams for player activity with them etc...
    If you're like me, and you're kind of a purist when it comes to the story and general
    atmosphere in Mafia, these things will probably constantly bother you.

Further, there is no weather change/rotation in Free Ride Mode, which makes Free Ride Mode pointless after a couple runs. The city is filled with an overpass ,for trains , he is all filled with them moving and communicating with NPCs, but my access there is locked, is that a mockery? Very little replay value and little value freeride.
    Definitive Edition it certainly did bring back some memories of the old game, the story, graphics, characters were all enhanced, but it all boiled down to a typical nasty new age game design. I would say that if they stayed loyal to the old game formula and just made it look and play better, it would be a masterpiece of a remake and a game, but instead, it turned out to be just another **** .

    The plot is very short, in the original it went seriously longer! And what to do in free roaming, for which it is generally assigned in this form - remove it from the menu and determine the significance of this game, as in reality, its name deserves nothing more than a LINEAR GAME MOVIE.

    Honestly I don't get why a remake after 18 years ago should remove so many features who were a big content in the original one. What's the point of it ? Looking at locked station doors makes me want to throw the game away.
    it's 2020 for christ's sake and a 2002 video game lets you take the train and this one not. That is absolutely preposterous and a display of neglect for this beautiful remake and a photo mode is also required. I have spoken.
    The lack of many such details makes the game a boring void.

    Hangar 13 did an amazing job on two things - expanded character exposures, cutscenes, actors and graphics. Thats where it ends. The actual “game” is a technological mess, filled with bugs, glitches and poor performance especially on PS4, dumbed down missions and too many liberties that don’t really work narratively speaking in the bigger picture of the story.

    Hangar 13 did an amazing job on two things - expanded character exposures, cutscenes, actors and graphics. Thats where it ends. The actual “game” is a technological mess, filled with bugs, glitches and poor performance especially on PS4, dumbed down missions and too many liberties that don’t really work narratively speaking in the bigger picture of the story.

    1.Enormous input lag and large deadzone of the analog stick. The lag between the controller and the character on screen is truly appalling for a console game in 2020, making it impossible to aim. You would think its because of vertical sync that usually is the issue, but the game has awful screen-tearing as well so what causes this lag is beyond me. Fix your engine, Hangar 13

    2. Framedrops everywhere when doing simple tasks like: aiming a long distance rifle, or scoping in, enabling mirror view in the car (try spamming it and the fps of the game tanks).

    3. Awful hit detection. Most of the time enemies just dont get hit because there is an invisible piece of the wall on above or on the side their cover.

    4. The classic difficulty is not “classic”. Its unreasonably hard and artificial. Completed the game on Classic difficulty and its not challenging, just rage-inducing and rather cheap. More damage on you or your vehicles doesnt make it “hard”, Hangar 13, it makes it a poorly optimized difficulty. This difficulty in tandem with large deadzone and input lag softlocked me For 2 hours inside a farm escape mission, in a constant loop of the turret destroying my turret in a matter of 10 seconds, and me not being able to destroy the turret 3 times that fast. On PC without vertical sync and no input lag it might be an easy mission to complete, but on PS4 Its impossible, replaying the whole chapter for Tommy to have more health didn’t help, it just locks you in this hell of 20 second loading screens, and instant demolishion of your truck by that turret (or tommy’s death). Knowing the awful performance on this game i I had to end up using Speedrunner strats of spamming the pause button (while shooting the turret) to slow down the game framerate and not miss a single shot on it. It worked. Its just crazy that i had to end up cheating and breaking the game in order to complete this mess of a mission.

    5. Sandbox is gone. The game is a dumbed down corridor-esque mission-by-mission rollercoaster. The variety of ways you could complete the mission is no more. The sandbox type of walkthrough is not possible and removed in most missions. The game is holding your hand through large amount of forced cutscenes, checkpoints and corridors.
    The enemies will not appear until you hit a trigger or move further. Some missions are so dumbed down and programmed in such an outdated and broken fashion that you can literally run past all enemies and hit a cutscene trigger, and you essentially completed the mission, missing a 40 minute mindless shootout. Sometimes there is no way to quit the vehicle during mission. Sometimes you can’t attack or cant run (you can imagine Hangar 13 saying: “Here’s the deal, player, we are forcing you to look at our interrior details, so we removed run feature inside buildings”). There is no way to complete the “Visiting Rich” completely stealth, or without casualties like in original. You also cant enter side door, or backdoor of the building like the original. You also can’t ask salvatore to lockpick doors, instead you play a stupid hide-and seek scripted sequence which makes it look silly. You are also forced to take out the entire army of bad guys in the garden-maze and can only enter the building using the front door. The maid is also not hostile and cant alarm guards, so essentially you can run around the mansion like Usain Bolt, making this mission pale and dumb in comparison to the original atmospheric hitman-like experience.

    6. The rewritten score pales in comparison and hardly touches any strings of the players soul (mine especially.) If it does, its because they mixed-in some notes from the original score, the other “battle” or “sad themes are generic and dull. The musical pieces feel out of place sometimes, and not as epic or emotional. Why not just remix the original 2002 soundtrack is beyond me (you had one job)

    7. Removed content/features/details. This includes: no way to ride trolly or subway. Essentially no “Garage”. Just “select your car” type of thing. You can’t park your cars in backyard of Salieri’s bar and expect them to stay there. Less cars in game. Lucas Bertone missions are removed, you hardly interact with Ralphie (he doesnt teach you how to steal each car, making the car progression essentially non-existent). Weapon names are dumbed down (no Colt, no Smith and Vessons, just PISTOL, SHOTGUN etc.). When shooting in the car, Tommy shoots Through the freaking windshield instead of sticking his hand through the window like in the original.

    Dissapointed and sad.

    Hell was going this story where I couldn't go somewhere in the city to walk and see. The plot is surprisingly fast and circumcised from the original, which upset me.

    I sincerely expected that we will be given a deeper plot with a lot of secondary and side missions to create a non-linear, non-tunnel passage, a big city in full access to everything. Instead, we were given a company for half a day, with notes on each location that seemed to bring the atmosphere.

    Postscript:
    rereading, I again looked at the video and screenshots of the game in the store and realized that it is a complete deception and divorce ... the game doesn't look the way it's presented at all. We've been cut.

    Игра это огромный торт из г0BHa с маленькими вишенками в виде плюсов.

    Из плюсов можно выделить общий стиль, приятную цветовую гамму, звук и музыку и которое раскрытие персонажей.
    На этом всё!

    16 часов неспешного прохождения на сложности "классик" и всё, конец. Это даже меньше, чем в каких-нибудь посредственных платформерах. А как вы думаете почему так мало? Потому что вместо добавления миссий, разнообразия геймплея, рукo|||oпы из Ангара решили просто вырезать целые куски сюжета, перемолоть и свалить его остатки в кучу.
    Сложные миссии превратились просто в добанутые (гонки, склад с Морелло).

    Томми теперь не обычный таксист, который колеблется в своих решениях, а он простой гопарь, который хочет крови и легких денег. Как в принципе Поли и Сэм, дела которых оставались в тени, а сейчас их показали мерзкими тварями, которые по приказу Дона отнимут последние деньги у любого человека или же отнимут его жизнь.
    Возможно подобный подход неплох, он лишает романтического образа, той самой Мафии 2002, показывая истинное лицо этой преступной ячейки.
    Но в плане сюжета это ставит крест на сочувствии любому из героев.

    Так забавляют петушки, которые разводили своё ко-ко-ко, говоря, что Мафия 3 это помойка, а сейчас эти же люди кукарекают какой шедевр выдали Ангар 13. Какие же грёбанные лицемеры.

    Короче, не буду дальше бомбить, касаемо игры - это дно! Не покупайте это даже на распродажах. Цена этому "шедевру" 2 бакса.

    P.S. кстати, если в оригинале было название Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven и город по суди был одним из главных персонажей. Именно по этому все миссии были прописаны так, что ты хорошо помнил каждый район. То здесь город вообще никакой. Разрабам было лень делать метро и трамваи, ничем из этого вы не можете воспользоваться. На заправке нет людей. А от Луки Бертоне, вы получите 5 фоток с автомобилями и пожеланием самим их найти. Во всём чувствуется экономия и мерзкая меркантильность.

    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.

The graphics are okay, the cinematic music just feels massively out of place with what is going on, I already had a big sound bug, where the whole game would be dead silent, beyond walking noises, once I had to restart the game, because the transition from one mission to another didn't trigger a necessary cutscene and the writing on the other hand doesn't click for me either, I don't care for the characters, they are very, very dull. the open world is just colorful collage in the background while driving from target to target. Even Mafia 2 was chapter-orientated, but at least you could roam in the city, buy clothes etc. The possibilities weren't much back then, but here they are non-existent, I don't consider this an open world game. You don't even get money. The excuse, that it weren't like that in the first game, is non valid, since this is what I would have expected from a remake. Lost Heaven is well made, so it's a shame, I will never take a closer look at it. And don't you even start with this exploring mode - If they failed to incorporate it in their main story mode, I will not drive around aimlessly for the sake of it. The close combat is an absolute joke, button smashing and waiting for your triangle cue, like seriously? That is 2005 kind of stuff. This game is in all technical regards a huge step down and feels more clunky than mafia 3, I seriously can not fathom, that this is supposed to be an 'advanced' version of mafia 3, this is Mafia 3's gameplay after you drove it to a wall and patched the worst damage up , and this bothers me extremely, since this was Hanger 13's last chance to turn things around, after they've ruined Mafia 3 and had the audacity to release a total lackluster remaster of part 2. Maybe I'm a little hard on it, because I was pissed of about Mafia 3 so much and because I hoped that Hangar 13 would finally get their **** together and knock it out of the park. But this really isn't it. The mission design is decades old, boring, frustrating, I'm actually bored senseless playing this game. I guess I will eventually finish it, but this was beyond a doubt the final nail in the coffin for Hanger 13.

    There nothing but a bunch of shortcuts-taking, half-assing dabblers.

    As any game in the current industry and in 100% cases for remakes, this is a squished simplified trash , cause there was no people who worked on this to make game great. I bet nobody in the studio played the original game. Mario is harder and more interesting game than this. Guess why , cause people who made it ,cared about it, This remake era we are currently in kills the industry.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The original mafia is my first game. It gave me a range of emotions that I have never experienced anywhere else.
    I was really looking forward to the remake. I believed in him to the last, but he didn't live up to my expectations. Yes, the graphics are better, but otherwise it's something terrible. I got used to changing the music, gameplay features, and many other things, but the ending. You shouldn't have done that. In the original, I was crying at the very end. The remake did not cause any emotions. This is a failure. No one could ruin the game like that.
    Original text:
    Оригинальная мафия - моя первая игра. Именно она подарила мне тот спектр эмоций, который я больше нигде не испытывал.
    Я очень сильно ждал ремейка. Я верил в него до последнего, но он не оправдал моих ожиданий. Да, графика похорошела, но в остальном это что-то ужасное. Я смерился с изменением музыки, геймплейными особенностями и многими другими вещами, но концовка. Так нельзя было делать. В оригинале в самом конце я плакал. Ремейк не вызвал никаких эмоций. Это провал. Так испортить игру не мог никто.

    Is ashame this series has been so butchered by Hager 13..I refuse to believe the same people from the originals had anything to do with this..
    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.

    After the absolute trash mafia 3 was, someone thought it’d be a good idea to give hangar 13 another chance to develop more absolute rubbish, and boy oh boy they didn’t disappoint. This is just a terrible remaster with horrible clunky controls, lighting is horrendous again. These guys are c grade devs at best.

In some cutscenes the characters seem totally out of sync with the voices. The animations are awful very 2002 looking it looks as if they changed only the textures and models. In terms of content you don't get only the original 20 missions with no side activities, it doesn't really feel like an open world game if they hold your hand every step of the way. The shooting and cover mechanics are again very outdated, every gunfight is clunky, the enemy AI is awful and I also experienced critical bugs more than 1 month after release. I tried to reload a checkpoint in mission 4 and I got pushed back 2 checkpoints, and the police was giving me a fine. After that I couldn't move. I had to delete save files manually in order to be able to continue. Some other time in the same mission I had to enter a motel to save a guy. As soon as I was out of stealth I started taking damage over time out of nowhere and I just died. The infamous banana race is still there and it is as bad as it ever was. I did it in the original game but I don't feel like spending one afternoon to keep trying until I get lucky. I don't know why they had to make it just as frustrating again (at least now you have to race only 3 laps and from what I remember in the original game you had to race 6 laps). If Mafia was your favourite game and you can overlook all the bugs and clunky stuff you can buy it but you just make sure you don't expect anything better than the original game (excepting the graphics).

The HUD doesn't show enemies that are near you (bug), the "auto aim" is inaccurate at best, and the player is still

    The programming and mechanics are absolutely horrible. "Definitive edition?" More like "Debug edition."

    On "normal" mode this game is so difficult that it's more or less impossible. The HUD doesn't show enemies that are near you (bug), the "auto aim" is inaccurate at best, and the player is still magically able to get hit when crouched behind stuff by invisible enemies. Dying quickly is commonplace and then you're rewarded with a nice long wait screen to get back to the action (inefficiency).

    The story is good. Graphics are decent for when it was made. Sound and voice are decent. Game is a bit on rails and the missions are somewhat repetitive feeling. But it's the programming that really ruins the playability of the game and makes this a low score for me. It's as if nobody play-tested this thing. It's frustrating and annoying.

    If the game is $4.99 USD or less, it's probably a good value. But anything above that is a waste of money unless you enjoy furiously unfair game play.

    I hate car race games in general. The game forces you to do a stupid race in the story mode as the main mission! And there is no SKIP!
    I cannot believe that the developers ignored this obvious point!
    So I deleted the game. Good that I got it as the monthly free game in PS plus!

    Somewhere they did it well, but many missions were changed completely especially some of my favourites like "just for relaxation" and "lucky bastard" and I don't understand what was the reason to change Tom's character, he looks like a badass gangster now which is opposite to what he used to be in the original, just a good man who happened to be in the wrong place.

    Terrible gunplay system and controlling the aim.
    Sometimes when you walk freely in the city the sounds will disappears.
    Terrible driving and physics.

    Mafia: Definitive Edition plays on both nostalgia and disappointment, and this is the experience you'd rather like to avoid.

    I liked the first Mafia, with all of its flaws, with the great story, big city, the 30s. I even liked the damned race! But it was in the early 2000s, so I was astonished by this game. The remake still tells you a good story. Still, it ruins the whole experience

The remake still tells you a good story. Still, it ruins the whole experience with the cheap gameplay, terrible driving model, repetitive missions (drive - kill some guys - return, repeat), and impressive but dead city.
    The gameplay feels very cheap. The character movement is annoying (it's like you are playing a clay soldier instead of a human), shooting is very 2009 - hide behind something, shoot some guys, go forward, repeat until you reach some point. Driving is not the experience you want to have in this game. I know the cars are from the 30s, but you are always riding a tank on the ice whenever car you are using. Always.
    The open city is dead. There's no reason to do anything there. You can't use the tram, buildings are locked, people are somehow retarded, and walk the scripted ways. Sure, you have collectibles, but looking after magazines in the dead city is nothing you would like to do anyway, trust me.
    Bugs, bugs, bugs. The game is buggy. The textures are loading in front of you. The graphic is really "shaky". And the worst thing is that everything is scripted to the point that the police car can stop in one place during the mission and disappear while the other will arrive.
    I can't understand why this game got so many good reviews from the magazines and gaming portals.

    Pros:
    Story
    Great presentation of the 1930s
    Characters
    Cutscenes
    Cons:
    Boring, monotonous, very cheap
    Car ride
    Bugs!
    Graphic that is not optimized well
    Dead city
    Technological mess, full of glitches and poor performance

Ну а людям, которым действительно нравилась первая мафия, думаю эта игра не понравится. Она ничего не смогла привнести в мир игры, с колосальным прогрессом в игровой индустрии, только лишь, порезать, убрать и не проработать, показывая лишь симпотичный фантик, который лишь визуально смотрится выигрышнее на фоне оригинала.

    I started up this one on classic difficulty, played through until the race section which was notoriously hated in the classic game... and its actually worse.
    I see nothing but complaints online about this, but no sign of the developer addressing it (It came a year ago). Thankfully I didn't buy the entire trilogy, this one

    I don't understand how a REMAKE can be worse and shorter than the ORIGINAL !? XDDD

    The word is a REMAKE that I bought the game with confidence a more expanded and expanded version And received a piece of a non-carelessly mutilated produce! Free-ride is made for what? That there is no interaction with anything in it! You even removed the train with the tram for the game! Very

    Very disappointed with the sorry!

    I was hoping for a further expansion of free walking on trains and trams, accessible entry locations to houses and various buildings of interaction locations.

    I can not find any info on further planned patches, and their official website has no dates on any of it's articles.

    Seems like shady tactic, to get old mafia fans like myself in to buy the game.

    How far has the 2K fallen...
    At least now I (we) know for sure to NEVER buy anything else from 2K or hangar 13

    This Definitive Edition Game edition ??
    This can not be called a Remake, since there is no 40% of the main content and it is a pathetic parody and a stupid fake. Most of the game is just a movie cutscene and dumb controls And this is the game of 2021,
    The best and only Mafia is a game released in 2002 MAFIA: THE CITY OF LOST HEAVEN, which was made with all my heart! Everything else is

    Ужасная графика, мыло мыльное. Геймплей скучный, тир со стрельбой из-за угла, никакой отдачи оружия. Автомобили словно утюги. Персонажа ужасные, катсцены невозможно смотреть. Ужасный ремейк.

    It's just that this studio like Hangar-13 has **** happen all the time and it always gets worse every time. How can you call it an ENDING PRODUCT? WHEN IT'S VERY LAZY WORK FROM THE WORD LAZY! Passed on rails as a movie plot BUT only trimmed not complete from the original and the whole game is empty, along with its FREERIDE for what is made as nothing is not clear.

I thought the game was patched and updated after a YEAR! that I dared to buy at a discount, but here we just all got ****ed on this **** so called Hangar's lazy wee man. This game was nowhere near the quality of the original 2002, which even today is played with pleasure. Expand

    Игра хуже регионала. Тупые противники, тупые полицейские. Куча багов и неправдоподобной хрени. Лучше поиграйте в оригинал, даже в 2021 он играется и ощущается лучше.
    Прошёл на пс5, куча глюков и играть не интересно

    I never played the original so I didn't go into the game with any expectations. Most of the game is comprised of driving around or listening to cutscenes. The game was at its height during some of the driving moments when you could take in the atmosphere of the city. The main character Tommy is almost laughably one dimensional.

The main character Tommy is almost laughably one dimensional. His only line is "yes boss". His transition from cabbie to sociopathic mass murderer is also very abrupt and jarring. The gunplay is the worst out of everything previously mentioned. The fights are boring and repetitive. You always end up scrounging for ammo, or have to retry a level many times because there is very limited healing options. Expand

    Games is 4.5/5 in my oppinion. Unskippable credits are so annoying that I give only 3 stars (grow up - if I want/need to check credit I will do so if I choose)

    One of the best-loved games on PS2 gets a pitch-perfect remake. Thick with atmosphere, Mafia: Definitive Edition just about manages to mask over any agerelated decrepitude. [Issue#181, p.91]

    Mafia: Definitive Edition's narrative and visual strengths help it overcome issues in other areas to deliver a worthy remake of the best game in the series.

    Mafia: Definitive Edition manages to place a great gangster adventure among the great titles of its genre by the end of this generation of consoles due to the excellent renovation of its graphic and sound section.
