    So when I first started the yakuza series I was coming off mafia so I was kinda disappointed at first but yakuza has become one of my favorite series and I had to honestly give the man who erased his name a 10/10 and I’ve only given that high a rating about 3 or 4 other times movies and games and tv shows all included but that game brought every single emotion out of me and I just cannot recommend it enough

      I love the yakuza games. Just started 5 months ago n pretty much beat all the main ones. Working con judgemnt almost done n then lost judgement. Going be sad when I have no more yakuza games to play. Such a beautiful series with alot of heart n just wanting to be a better person. There is something for everybody when they play the series. Gaiden incredible ending n I know people give yongyea a hard time about his Kiryu performance but I thought he was great. The ending on Gaiden was powerful tearing moment you don't see often in gaming.

    Mafia II is one of my all-time favorite games! And one of the only games that I've PLATINUMED on the PS3 and PS5.
    I really enjoyed all the Mafia series, but 2 was the best. And GTA is always quality fun and sets the bench mark for all games in this style of play. And Red Dead Redemption 2 best environment and best story hands down.

    I played Mafia Definitive Edition last year, and it was probably one of the best games that I played last year. I didn't play the Mafia 1 (older version), so I wasn't expecting anything at all, I just give the game a chance, and it did surprise me, because the story is pretty good to me, and also the characters are to me what made the game special. Tommy and the others are really likeable characters.

    Little note.
    Here in Italy we say just "Cosa Nostra",
    not "la cosa nostra".
    The definite article "la" at the beginning gives the expression a generic flavor which changes the meaning.
    Basically it's like the difference between "something of ours" or "our thing" (with the article),
    and "everything is ours" (without the article).

    I played Mafia III (2016) in the past year as it came through as a free game on PSN. It captivated me through to the end, a bit tedious in places (rinse and repeat mission types) but overall a good game I thought, certainly worth playing when free. The soundtrack was awesome too.
