The game has some slower missions mixed in with the action, as I mentioned. Even less useful is buying food and drinks to replenish health, as you'll recover automatically over a short period of time, when getting hurt.
You can go shopping (or robbing) in stores for new outfits (helps you get the police off your back), weapons and car upgrades, but as you'll come across new cars and weapons all the time throughout the missions, there's really no reason to bother buying them. But other than observing or messing with people, there actually isn't much to do other than beating the story missions.
There is a whole lot of driving between locations involved, in what appears like an "open" city, filled with loads of traffic and people roaming the streets and making conversations to one another.
MAFIA 3 PS3 REVIEW FULL
Whilst being short-lasting, the game delivers throughout its full length, offering a lot of variety with superb gameplay mechanics, ranging from driving to cover based shooting, to man-on-man fist fights, to even some stealth action, as mentioned earlier. But what GTA and Saints Row offer in plenty of fun side missions and mayhem, Mafia 2 instead makes up with a compelling, cinematic story with much more depth adding a great deal of suspense to the game, making it that much more interesting than its competitors. Mafia 2 is not the lenghtiest game, and it's quite linear for an "open world" type of game, so the inevitable comparisons to GTA and the likes aren't quite justified.

This is certainly a well welcomed feature, although a manual save functionality would be too. Unlike certain sandbox games, Mafia II also auto-saves frequently at checkpoints during the chapters themselves, and you'll never fail a mission getting caught on you way back to your safe house to save the game. From then on, the difficulty level never quite peeks notably until the last chapters in the game, however. You soon get to perform a larger heist at a museum, where it also gets drastically more challenging, putting your stealth abilities as well as shooting and covering to a test. Rides to steal, you won't see any reason to bother.Īs you climb the food chain towards mafia "stardom", you generally start off with easier, low profile jobs, like punching some guys for money and selling illegal cigarettes. The cars can all be upgraded, repainted and get aĬustom licence plate, but with a smörgåsbord of other This is where you'll spend a great deal of your time. This is where the actual game takes a start, as Joe start introducing you to one mobster bigshot after the next, getting you involved in various jobs, ranging from extortion, theft, and drug dealing, to assassins and destruction of property. He also reunite with his old buddy Joe, who helps Vito from going back to the war, through some shady tricks and paperwork. Starting out like your average war shooter, the game soon moves us back to USA, where Vito meets up with what's left of his family, which appears to be his mother and sister. Noire, Mafia II picks up at the end of World War II, where the lead character Vito, who's living in the States gets sent back to Sicily to fight his former home country and the nazis.
Noire a while back, I went looking for something somewhat similar, and ended up moving to the other side of the law, treading into the mob world. VIDEOGAME REVIEW | After finishing the brilliant L.A.
