dferlencm Mafia: Definitive Edition Review

The game is brilliant. When compared to remakes released in 2020 and beyond, there are massive differences. The game’s graphics, scenery, atmosphere, shadows, lighting, and so on are beyond amazing—they’re extraordinary. As someone who pays close attention to detail in games like this, even the physics are superb. The weapon mechanics are also excellent. However, this remake has been a bit swayed by the Hollywood effect—that is, it’s gone a bit over the top. We’re trying to blow off the turret of an extremely powerful, armoured tank-like vehicle with a Thompson. Aside from this sort of over-the-top stuff, the game is brilliant. What captivated me most were, first and foremost, the graphics, environment design and visual appeal; secondly, the fact that despite not being an open-world game, the streets and such are beautifully designed; and finally, the story being both powerful and serious, and one of the games in the Mafia series where the story takes centre stage. It’s definitely worth a try. Also, if you’re going to buy it, I’d recommend getting the Trilogy pack and playing all three games.
