I find it refreshing that Mafia 1 and 2 are focused solely on the story, and don't cram their games with side content that distracts you from the story, like 99% of open world games do today. Mafia 3 does take a more modern approach and implements the typical open world activities and side quests, but I feel like they did this quite well. Every side mission in Mafia 3 feels part of the main story, its always a mission that is getting Lincoln Clay one step closer to his goal. So although they can be repetitive, I like how they all tie in to the main story, unlike many other open world games where the side quests are completely disjointed and have nothing to do with the story. Overall, I think the Mafia games are some of the best video games ever produced, and I can't wait to experience it all over again next week.
Antagoniser27 I really enjoyed the first few hours of 3 when it was heavily story based then got bored, not hating though, I’m still tempted to go back and try again but I have never been a huge fan of open world games. Ac odyssey being the worst, at first I was impressed with the huge map but then I just found it daunting and gave up lol.
Mafia 1 and Mafia 2 are not "incredibly long", you can complete the first Mafia in 18 hours, less if you don't die like I did. Mafia II is 22 hours, again not long. The only long game in the trilogy is Mafia III which for my playthrough clocked in at 75 hours.
@@yasing6970 I can't answer him as his question isn't specific enough. Is what worth it? There are 3 games in the Mafia trilogy so I need to know which game is "worth it" before I answer that.
On the epic games launcher with the 10 dollar coupon the whole trilogy is 35 bucks, I bought it I hope it’s good Edit: it was very much worth it in case you need a second a opinion, and the story is very good at least for mafia 1 and what i have played of mafia 2.
@@its.me.jack1216 mafia 1 is very much worth playing if you like mafia movies and stuff, but the rest aren’t great. Rdr2 is gonna be the better game overall, only buy the mafia game if you love mafia things. The first one is great and worth playing and the second one is pretty good, but if you can only buy one I’d go for rdr2 and then later on you can buy mafia when it’s cheap.
Just picked this up for Black Friday for $44.99 and that was a great deal! I finished Mafia definitive a few days ago and it was absolutely excellent - becoming quite possibly my favorite of the three. I see now why this game and its story is so legendary to gamers everywhere. Mafia 2 was one of my favorite games on the PS3 so I was anxious to see what updates they did with the remaster and while they definitely improved the look of the game, they seriously screwed up the gameplay. Bugs and glitches were EVERYWHERE and its unbelievable they would release 1/3 of a game bundle with this many issues. Hopefully they patch it up soon. It says alot that Mafia 2s story is so sensational that despite its many technical problems I am still having a great time with it! Its still a classic. I had gotten bored with Mafia 3 about 12- 15 hours in because it got extremely repetitive but I'm going to give it one more try and start it once more because as with those other games, the story and characters are just brilliant. Overall this is an extremely underrated series and even at $59.99 you are getting three excellent games plus all the DLC and extras for a fantastic price! Nice video covering this!
Mafia III is the only Mafia game I've played, and I LOVED everything about it. Including the music. The thing I'm wondering about this trilogy is, for the physical release, is all of the DLC on the actual disc/s already, or does it have to be downloaded? Because I'll have to import this game if I get it (since the trilogy never released in North America), and I don't know if the DLC could be downloaded on an NTSC PS4 or not.
Nice review for the Mafia Trilogy, I agree 🎯 with everything you said, Mafia 3 has the smoothest best gameplay mechanics of the three, Mafia 1 & 2 are great games as well but yet they just seem kinda clunky with the gameplay mechanics as compared to Mafia 3 but overall the trilogy is definitely a great in my book!!!
Couldn't agree more! It's really hard going back to play 1 & 2 after playing 3 because it can be really clunky. I do hope we might get a Mafia 4 because this series is just too amazing to not have a new entry be added to it.
I never payed much attention to this series before but after revisiting Scarface on PS2 last week it inspired me to check out similar titles within the genre.. Tried the Mafia 3 demo about an hour or two ago and while I’m far from a pro at it I’m impressed at how polished it is and how interesting the story appears to be..
I mostly like mafia 1 i played that game on pc when i was 16 i am 34 now i loved mafia 2 on ps3 but i never played mafia 3 so i just ordered the mafia trilogy on ps4
so i bought mafia 1 definitive edition on it's own (i know, probably a stupid move, but whatever) does anyone know if they will release mafia 2 definitive edition on it's own as well?
Can anyone tell me for the PS4 physical copy that it actually works in the US made Playstations? Some people have said they had issues and I'm getting it today and I'm worried I spent money on games I cant play lol
Played them all, but bought the trilogy bcoz of the first being redone ans the second remastered... And well, have mafia 3 double now ... Did them play originally...
2:42 when the review starts.
Fucking thank you. I’m 1:50 in and almost turned it off.
@@packtavious1871 same here lol
MVP
Not all heroes wears capes
Why don't they remaster and remake the scareface and true crime for nyc the best games that I have played and still play? in 2020
true crime was amazing
True crime should be remastered anyone know why they haven't
I was just thinking of this before thinking of this trilogy
Scarface best game ever
I liked The Godfather games.
A good series, but after playing the games I find that I have an insatiable craving for bread and olive oil....
I never played the mafia games but i just bought the trilogy ive been into mafia related stuff lately so i hope its worth it
How’ve you found it? I just bought the trilogy so I’m looking forward to playing it. I’m also quite into mafia stuff
Recently all I’ve been watching and researching is mafia related stuff too and I also just bought the trilogy hoping it’s worth it.

I love the trilogy, first two games are 9/10 for me, 3 dropped to a 7/10 but overall an amazing trilogy

Hella good series in my opinion
One of the best. Its up there with GTA and SR

From what the ps4 digital info says, you get all games in their DE editions as well as all previously made dlc.
The music was tremendous
I never played this game before but since i watched your review I will definitely buy it.

Isn't lost haven chicago and empire bay is new york
True
mafia 1 & 2 is incredibly long? How?
I just bought the mafia trilogy never played any except for part 3 a little bit but I was wondering should I play in order or does it not matter
I’m super into mafia movies/documentaries. Are these games worth buying and playing?
The second is definetely
Which order do you recommend playing them in?
I mostly like mafia 1 i played that game on pc when i was 16 i am 34 now i loved mafia 2 on ps3 but i never played mafia 3 so i just ordered the mafia trilogy on ps4
Very nice review 🤟🏿
So are the games running on 60fps or not ?
On console? Probably not. Haven’t played them on console since this review as I’ve been playing them on PC
so i bought mafia 1 definitive edition on it's own (i know, probably a stupid move, but whatever) does anyone know if they will release mafia 2 definitive edition on it's own as well?
they already have it on its own and on sale for $15 on epic games
