    A lazy remake that only improves graphics and voice acting without bothering to update the mechanics at all. Maybe refer to Capcom with Re2 and Re4 Remakes when you try to make an actual remake.

The narrative and refined graphics are definitely the highlights of the game. I found myself really immersed into the 1930s setting and found the whole mobster gang theme to be quite cool and a reflection of american culture at that point in time. The linearity of the game actually brings out the best in it because i was afraid of just doing fetch quests and meaningless side missions, so to have a direct approach and storyline felt great to follow. Combat with various guns was alright, the enemies really like to shoot you JUST when you get into cover, so when you are low on health this can be highly annoying. But nothing too offensive about the game, i seriously enjoyed this game alot.    … Expand

    The game causes different feelings - the story and the characters are interesting and alive, but the technical side of the game leaves much to be desired, for me.

    But my score is 7 because there were much more good emotions while playing it: the atmosphere, the relationships between characters and etc. The gameplay and the graphics are really from PS4, so I think it plays the role.

    Short but solid game. There are no sidequests so, unless you are wasting your time it should take you about 12 houres to beat the game or so. From the middle to the end it's easy to die or fail a mission a couple or 3 times in normal mode. I ended up changing to easy in the last chapters. Maybe if you play in easy mode can take 10 hours.

    Its a decent remake, gameplay is fine and the story is still very compelling.

    The open world design however is just dated at this point and there isn't really much to do other than about 10 hours of main story.

    This remake strikes a balance between honoring the original game and introducing modern improvements. While it doesn't surpass the original, it offers enjoyable pacing and stunning visuals. The gameplay flows seamlessly, and the graphics, despite lacking RTX, are impressive. It's a solid entry in the franchise, appealing to both nostalgic fans and newcomers.

    5.7/10

    The good - I like the 30s setting and they did a good job with it. - The story and characters are just good enough to stop you skipping cut scenes. - There are good options for difficulty, driving and aiming. - The driving feels good. The cars have a good sense of speed and a real weight and momentum to them. You can slide and spin the wheels in the more powerful cars.    5.7/10

    - The driving feels good. The cars have a good sense of speed and a real weight and momentum to them. You can slide and spin the wheels in the more powerful cars.

    The bad

    - Basic third person shooter gameplay and very simple melee combat.
    - The whole game outside driving feels a bit awkward and clunky.
    - It doesn’t look that good.
    - The open world is just a set to drive through.

    The very bad

    - Weird visual issues.
    - It crashed once.
    - Sometimes loading would randomly take much longer.

    Mafia: Definitive Edition isn’t very good but it’s worth a play through if it looks like your type of game.

    Sin embargo, el movimiento del personaje es algo tosco, siendo complicado moverse por espacios pequeños. La principal debilidad de este juego es su IA, porque a veces se hace bastante frustrante, especialmente en la misión de escapar de la iglesia.

    Very good remake, not only in terms of graphics and gameplay but also subtle changes in dialogs, cinematics, great voice acting and motion capture. Unfortunately quite short, finished in 12 hours at 'Hard' difficult. Maybe they could try something more open word-ish. And seriously, they should remove race mission.

    The picture is very juicy, a lot of small details, beautiful sky, reflections on cars, etc. The story has not changed much, only new dialogues have been added. Missions have been reworked a lot and feel better. However, shooting spoils everything. It is very inconvenient to aim, not very pleasant to shoot, the thompson is just some kind of joke.

    Mejoras en cinemáticas, tiroteos, han convertido el juego de hace 20 años en uno prácticamente nuevo.

    Es una aventura de acción lineal, con una historia atrapante, buena conducción, tiroteos, cuerpo a cuerpo, sigilo, un mapa muy bien elaborado. Es muy realista, lo que provoca una gran inmersión en el juego.

    La duración es en mi opinión perfecta, unas 10-15 horas.

    Si no has jugado mafia es una buena oportunidad para jugarlo con mejores gráficos entre otras mejoras, y si ya lo has jugado es buen momento de revivirlo, lleno de nostalgia, porque la historia es la misma, aunque agregando diálogos para profundizar en la historia.

    No voy a hacer spoilers sobre la historia, os puedo asegurar que es muy buena, te sentirás todo un mafioso como su nombre indica.

    En conclusión juegazo, totalmente recomendado.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Esse jogo é uma aula de como fazer uma edição definitiva. Não só na parte dos gráficos e sim a mudança de direção em certas partes, como a câmera do jogo que melhorou bastante em comparação ao primeiro jogo e certas cenas do jogo que deixaram os momentos mais épicos ou surpreendentes, as expressões faciais são maravilhosas, pois você consegue ver a tristeza, raiva, felicidades dos personagens, um bom exemplo disso e no final do jogo, onde Tommy no jogo original ficou surpreso com a chegada dos capangas com uma arma, no remake, o Tommy pelo seu rosto, já sabia que isso iria acontecer algum dia e aceitou.
    Meu únicos problemas com esse jogo são os controles e alguns bugs de textura, modelos, etc. O controle dos carros e o controle de mira não são muito satisfatórios, como por exemplo GTA V que tem controles muito gostosinhos de se jogar, o dos carros eu consigo até passar um pano pois o jogo se passava na época da depressão economica dos Estados Unidos e os veículos daquela época não eram tão simples de se dirigir, mas mesmo assim é difícil de dirigir pela primeira vez, principalmente quando você chegar na missão da corrida (eu tiver que fazer mais de 10 resets). Não é uma coisa que estraga, é mais uma coisa que você se acostumar com o passar da gameplay. Em questão dos bugs, os bugs que mais apareceram na minha gameplay, são mais bugs dos modelos e texturas, como por exemplo: o mapa do jogo parecer um jogo de Playstation 2 do nada (problema de renderização do mapa) personagens ficando invisíveis, personagens olhando para a parede, etc. Mas foram poucos bugs que me apareceram durante minha gameplay.
    A história é a mesma do jogo original, só com algumas diferenças, excluindo certas coisas que tinha que fazer nas missões originais do Game, e adicionando coisas novas, como por exemplo que tenho que elogiar, partes do jogo com um sistema de stealth, como por exemplo a parte que a gente vai no aeroporto pela primeira vez, no jogo original era um tiroteio, no remake você pode completar o capítulo sem ser detectado.
    É um jogo muito bom mas recomendo comprar principalmente numa promoção ou pagando uma assinatura de streaming (Playstation Plus Extra ou Deluxe, Xbox Gamepass, etc).    … Expand

    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!

    A remarkable upgrade to an already classic game. A throw back to when games had no filler and were a thrill ride from start to finish. A gripping story that still holds up today. Well worth playing for fans of old or someone looking to try something new. The gameplay isn’t groundbreaking but the story is compelling enough to carry this game on its own.
