In mafia 2 you'll be introduced as Vito, you'll be playing thru his mafia years with all the gunshooting and the obsacles in his way to earn the big money.

_______________ STORY ______________

Vito, an man in his prime years was sent on permission after figthing in Scicillia during WWII, his best friend Joe Barbarossa a small-time crock that have good friends in the mafia can take care of that paperwork to free Vito from the duty and probably saves his life as he never need to return to the war again.

Vito have nothing at home, he needs to get a job to pay the dept for his sister and mom, with those bad odds he will quickly learn that crime pays a lot better than hard work.

Quite soon he'll find himself deep into mafias rules and laws, Vito and Joe are entangled into the extremes, shoot then ask.

____________ Visual and sound ___________

The graphics of this game exceed the ones seen in what many call the nemesis to this game "GTA IV" by a good margin, not only that you can actually play this game with full details, the PhysX is there too, adding a tiny bit more realism in certain situations.

The sound is excellent, music you'll encounter for this game fits right where it should be, some of the radio tunes in the cars
a snappy and typical 50's to go with the type of car you got.

____________ Conclusion _____________

This game is a nonstop motion, it rarely slows down because you'll encounter new more tougher obstacles all the time.
It's a fun game with some direction changing going on many times, you cant tell where the next chapter will bring you.

The only letdown of the game was that it was to short, GTA IV seems eternal in comparison, i personally cant compare them to each other because this is much more linear and never stops to zero as the GTA IV does many times.

The shooting and the driving is two great things in this game, Shooting is natural and not all to easy.
Cars handle like i can imagine 40-50's cars do, driving around in these old things is very fun.
So, not only does it got a amazing story it have these things too.

This is a great game with many twists, if you enjoyed GTA IV you'll enjoy this.
