They Should really call this Mafia II: Courier Adventures

Where's the mod?

The only thing that really annoyed me was that the story was pushing for it to be completed and there's not much room for roaming around. The game and story however was enjoyable but not as memorable as the original. Here's hoping they push out some good DLC's as a lot of the city was left alone and doing certain things (like using a phone) was relatively pointless (you have nobody to call...).

Eagerly waiting on DLC.

Jimmy's Vendetta DLC to be released September 7 - http://www.gamesradar.com/f/mafia-ii-jimmys-vendetta-dlc-gets-a-release-date-price/a-201008311051183042

Open world missions, it sounds like stuff that should have been in the original game?

Well yeh, is anyone having issues buying the original on steam? I want to buy it but can't apparently, any help?

is it the same city as the original? only upgraded? I've played the first but only the demo of the second and a few sections looked familiar to me.

If it is the same city, then it makes a certain scene around the middle of the game pretty stupid.
Spoiler:
I mean hiding out from the mob a 5 minute drive away, nice one witness protection. It was a nice nod to the original though

Jimmy's Vendetta is out for those who give a s***. I'm reading a lot of negativity on the 2k forums about content that was cut and the game missing out on a lot.

What's the price on this DLC?

After conversions from USD (12.99) it ends up being around 15 AUD

I'm reading a lot of negativity on the 2k forums about content that was cut and the game missing out on a lot.

Welcome to the new age of gaming. Release unfinished games and then charge for the same cut content as day 1 (or soon after) DLC.

So is it worth getting the DLC then?

For having created such a ridiculously detailed city you really visit bugger all of it through the missions. I was hugely disappointed with the lack of variety in mission locations and tasks.

8.5 is way too high imo

Just finished this game. Wtf @ ending

That youtube video could only have been better if they'd used that downfall video instead. I lol'd.

Seems Mafia 2 hit the world record for most F-Bombs in a game. Check this:

Gonna throw out a strong language warning, this is incredibly hilarious though.

Edit: Should mention a spoiler warning too.

this game is f***ing awesome.

one of the best games ive ever played, such great detail in the city, A1 voice acting, great story.

wish it was much much longer!

It does feel like the end of the game has been cut out of it, they'll probably DLC the rest of the game. The gameplay in the game is brilliant, its downfall though is just the mission styles & the constant driving between the action is dated dull(that said, the fast DLC car is awesome, specially on ice :) ) They have this detailed city & they just don't put it to good use, they treat it as just background mesh.

San Andreas is the best example on mission structure for 'sandbox city' type games.

Hopefully the game does well enough for a Mafia III... which would be bliss if it were to have co-op... :)

ive grabbed the dlc now, will see how that goes

i personally really enjoy just driving around the city, the way the different cars handle, im loving finding new cars and seeing how they go

and just generally exploring how big the city is

Joe's Adventures is out now, for $12.99US. Download is approx 1.4gb. This might redeem some upset from the community or fuel it with this DLC in terms of content.
