Grown man´s game
Thomas Angelo first didn´t want to get involved in mafia at all. He was a cab driver and was just a simple man who lived his life just like you.
Until one night Paulie and Sam from Salieri family were escaping from Morello´s guys ,their car broke up so they had to get in Tom´s cab and Tom had to shake them. But the guy´s that were after ,got the cab´s license plate number and from that moment on ,Tom was automatically involved .
I always like how Tom lights a cigarette and has a smoke in the cutscenes ,that´s so cool at the time when stupid people say how bad smoking is .
Tom is a great guy , he let Michelle escape who he was sent after and also let Frank ,who broke the omerta, fly to Europe with his family.
At the end, Tom learnt not to trust anyone as Michelle rat him out .
Tom was also a family man who had a wife and kid.
When the game´s story comes to an end ,Paulie and Tom realize that Salieri is doublecrossing them and ain´t giving a fair cut..
But play the game and you´ll find out what happened.
Also if your friend who has a birthday coming and who loves action games and you don´t know what to buy him ,then Mafia is the best gift ever, You can also buy this as a christmas present.
Music in the cutscenes and during the shootouts is cool but the music that is being played while you´re driving a car sucks.
Though, other sounds in the game are really true,like when you´re inside Salier´s bar and it is raining outside you can hear rain drops on the windows.
Weapons are very realistic and true and your enemies lose ammo( unlike in GTA where your enemies always have unlimited ammo) so you can just wait until they run out of bullets and then do this like gentlemen.
Game creates 1930s gangster feel ,when mafiosos loved to whack each other in the restaurants :)
Only thing that i would complain about is that the story is too short. GUN´s story however seems longer.
