What do you think about Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven?

Recommended Posts

I did a writeup on it on r/patientgamers last year, and quite enjoyed it. I was however looking at it from the viewpoint of it being a Grand Theft Auto contemporary, and not the simulator the developers were going for. I may play it again when the remaster comes down significantly in price, but given it's a 2K property that should be in the next few minutes.

It's pretty bad I think, much worse than Mafia 1 or even 2. It's been good number of years since I played them. Mafia 3 worst aspect is too repetitive gameplay. Your only motivation to continue is to get to next cinematic, and at that point you could as well watch a movie or "mafia 3 movie" on youtube to get all that story without suffering repetitive gameplay.

It's a great game, but I would't go as far to say it's one of the best games. The game hasn't aged well especially with the really outdated controls. Even back then I hated the controls. I played the PS2 though, so it may have been different on the PC. I know it looked a lot better on PC. 

The story and setting was great, but I just don't see it being in a top 10 list, or even a top 20 list. I could see it in a top 100 or so. That's just how I feel.

One of the best games to ever exist, compared to its age, that's surely the best game of that era (there are other decent titles too, but for a mafia category game, top of the top)

Totally agreed 🤝 with you here. Based on what's going on at the time, it's definitely a legendary massive game to play then.

IT has amazing gameplay, good controls, camera a bit weird, but all in all I'd say it's one of the best Mafia games out there to date(clearly I am talking about the old school mafia with dons and such, GTA def takes the crime game top place).

good point lol, especially when you choose the free camera option, the view angles are just weird, but the game is generally ❤️ 

Seriously, after my first try of using free mode camera, I never liked it which is why I stopped using it for better views.
