Random Mafia Stuff:

Screenshots:

I am very excited abotu this game, I enjoyed Mafia1 alot and still to this day think its the best crime open world game to this date. Mafia2 I was a little worried about but man was the demo fun and the full game looks even better.

In Mafia its really all about the story, good characters and fantastic music that really adds to the atmosphere. Mafia2 has improved gunplay and graphics so if the story, characters and music are as good as the first oen we could have a real winner on our hands!

SOME QUESTIONS:

Who all is excited?

What do you think the game will get?

A big thanks to the pc section that posted some of these Mafia2 screenshots in my "What Were you Playing" thread.

Looks awesome... But there's a sticky ^^

:P

I vote AAA - 9.0

Does the gun lamp come with Snoop Dogg :P ?

Also,I´m going with AAA(9.0)for the PC version.

Argh.. sorry guys, I was goign to do this earlyier but had to do somethings and my internet dissconnected so I had to do it again now.. without looking at the forum to see if anyone had made an official thread since earlyier round noon.

If a mod can move this into the official one? The poll to maybe? thanks

This should replace the current sticky.SaltyMeatballs

Well done Kozzy,hope this replaces the discussion thread we have now.Arach666

Third. A lot of work went into this thread.

I just noticed there was an offical one, when I was working on this thread earlyier today there was no offical one up ):

Hope someone can move it over there (the poll and the pictures)

Nice thread Kozzy, I'm going to guess 9.0-8.5 for the PC version, 8.5-8.0 for the consoles.

I say an 8. The story seems like it will be good. Its just I didint feel nothing click for me in the demo. So im not getting yet.

Do you need a reason to buy this game? Well..

Here it is.

Obviously the screen of the guy running through the grass wasn't taken from the PS3 version. :lol:

Anyway, I think the game will score at least a 7.5.

Yeah soem of hte pictures are from pc, some from consoles. Some of the pc screenshots where taken by some gamespot members :)

You should ask the mods to replace the current sticky, very nice thread. I'm going with AA-AAA for pc and A-AA for consoles.soulitane

I posted about it in the Mafia 2 thread that Casey the mod made. Dont know if this will be moved over though, well see.

I don't usually play these types of games much so I guess I shouldn't say too much, but I'll pass and ready up my money for L.A. Noire. :P

[QUOTE="mo0ksi"][QUOTE="SparkyProtocol"]Will it top RDR? ;OSparkyProtocol

AAA on the PC, AA on the consoles

AA is my guess. game seemed to have way too much screen tearing in the demo.

9.5 on PS3.

AAA on the PC, AA on the consoles

Awesome. I'm going with 8.5 on this one.

I would say this is going to be a 6-7 on Consoles.

I would say this is going to be a 8 on PC....maybe a 9.

Not much else to say, I posted more in that other sticky, but it's gone now.

Before I played the demo I thought it looked like it could easily get a 9.0. Now I am thinking more like an 8.0 on consoles and possibly higher on PC.

This game looks like a solid 9 or 8.5. I've never played the original Mafia, and I have no idea why.

On an unrelated note, what's that from in your sig?

Will it top RDR? ;OSparkyProtocol

Going by the demo, Mafia II isn't going to be as polished as RDR (though RDR did have its glitches and problems) but it will probably be a lot of good fun.
