If you are going to play this I would recommend The Godfather

User Rating: 3.5 | Mafia PS2
This game is very boring from the menu to the end credits though some levels can offer some excitement. You get thrown into long loading sequences in between islands, the menu and free roam the hands of the characters hands don't move during the cut scenes. Well I guess I'm just used to the thought of The Godfather. The story starts with some guy (Tommy) sitting in his cab having a smoke while there is a mob chase so the gangsters loose their car and are forced to put a gun to Tommy's head for a ride. So he gives you his card so if you need work you can go to help. When you get there to do the job you meet everybody. By doing this you have set yourself up to join "The Business" and start doing different missions. In free roam you can take out your fastest car and start hitting people. To me the godfather is what this game wishes it could be.
