Such a classic! Everything about this game feels just right. From the amount of attention to detail from the creators to the fantastic music that’s added, in game and in menus. Loved playing every second of it years ago, and can’t even remember the amount of times I played it again. Pure nostalgic feelings here.
I have a friend who showed me "Return to me" scene from this game. After a while of us singing it together for several nights I decided to get all the games and play them. And oh boy what a amazing franchise. Stories, characters, gameplay and settings. Seriously true masterpieces. As soon as I finished them I wanted to replay them.
Mafia 2 had a lot of cut content, but it still was great. The atmosphere, storytelling was on point. The gameplay is decent enough to keep players engaging. Best mafia game in the series.
Vito and Joe are my all time favorite video game duo in any video game I've ever played. The chemistry between these two guys is still one of the best I've ever seen. Such a perfect balance being natural, comedic and serious. The second being favorite duo being Niko and Roman from GTA 4.
Fun fact: Don Carlo was actually a real mob boss in Italy at the time of war and did indeed stop some Italians from firing on American soldiers. Apparently he was quite mad though.
26:27 If you go downstairs in the office you can find a box in the boiler room and turn the alarm off there, and then you don't have to deal with any cops
I don't know if you know, but around 7:40 when you say you're impressed with the way NPC's interact with the environment, well there's that broken down car and the couple arguing, if you hang around long enough the gent will walk away, and you can help the lady fix the car, I can't remember if you get anything from it, but I just love the small details in this game, helping NPC's, getting a cola out of the fridge, eating at a diner, having to get petrol! Fucking love this game.
Every minute Jayvee is exposed to Mafia 2, the more intense the Italian-American accent becomes. I can confirm that this is not an uncommon response for most players.
When the game hits spring and you see all the new fancy cars and the weather is warm the game really takes a place in your heart. I was a very impatient kid who always skipped game cutscenes but Mafia 2 had me watching all of them. Only game to leave me slackjawed at the end
The pinup magazines are unironically one of my favorite collectibles in any game. All unique, not just Coin #44 or something, they have innate value, they are fully integrated into the world, they are easy to see if you're looking but easy to miss if you aren't, and there are just a perfect number of them
it's one of the games that made me say, I want to make games. now i am studying to become a 3d artist. Mafia 2 is a must and it has nothing to envy to movies about the mafia like the godfather.
I literally just played these games (definitive edition) for the first time in my 28 years on this planet and I got to say I absolutely love this title compared to the first one. just like you said, the city just feels so alive. its very immersing.
One of the best games and stories in games of all time. Also, even though it's linear and not really open world as much as Rockstar games are, at least the missions are less rigid. For example, when you struggled with the alarm when robbing the safe, you could also take another approach and simply disable the alarm in the building's basement. This was actually what I missed from Mafia DE, even though it's been an incredible remake, it removed some of the prep work required for each mission - especially the boat assasination.
No matter how many times I replay this game, it never gets old. Btw, the definitive edition ain't bad, it just doesn't give too much improvement. Edit: 28:07 I didn't know after all these years that you could sell the stamps from the car !
I just played this a month ago for the first time! Mafia 1 was great but I enjoyed Mafia 2 so much. I got about half way through Mafia 3 before Saints Row came out. 💜
This game literally turned me into a mob movie addict... I started watching every gangster movie from the 90s , 80s and 70s after playing Mafia 2... I also started following Michael Francheze and listening to his stories... I got pretty obsessed with movies like Goodfellas, Casino, Scarface and Godfather among many others
One of the best games I've ever played. AC 2 and brother hood, halo 2 and 3, GTA San Andreas are my personal favorites growing up but games like this one always snuck in there somewhere when I was gaming.
honestly i love this game i played the demo first and the stuff you could interact with made me fall in love with the game like how you could open the fridge eat and drink the food that was in there rob the stores etc such etc this is a masterpiece game
27:38 actually there was something you could do, you can deactivate the alarm. Though it's down in the basement lol, was something I figured back when the game came out but yh, I get why most hadn't. It does reward you with more money for the job too.
I love that people love this little czech mafia game of ours, still a shame half of the story and mechanics were cut out, just the beginning war mission was supposed to be a whole chapter of it's own
So I showed up late to the Mafia party, I played the first one when the definitive edition was made for it and I tried Mafia 2 and since it feels so different it’s hard for me to get used to it but after watching this video I will for sure give it the time it deserves as well as Mafia 3
I love this game. Something apart from its content that I'll always remember is just how much it could tank your performance if you cranked up the physics in the settings. It'd look damn sweet especially during gunfights, tho.
And the fact that there was content that got cut... Oh and there's a rumor of a Mafia 4. Hopefully H13, given the FULL time and not the remainder will make a banger
Wat i luv abt this game is all the minor details like u can eat all the food in the fridge, u can refill fuel n run out of feul, u can get drunk, u can bribe the police n many more....its really detailed
So that gas stamps mission, you gotta go to the basement and disable the alarm system. Then go the director's room and steal the stamps from the safe. No alarm. Then sneak out the way you came in. You get paid in full + an achievement
The Mafia series is one of the best in gaming IMO. I can't speak for 3 but the first (especially the remake) and 2 are a couple of the best games I've ever played. I just love the world and time periods. Really hoping the fourth follows 1 and 2 more than the third.
I am currently replaying Mafia 3 on Ps5 and I'm loving it so far! It is different but I'm having fun with it. They don't make games that often in that setting and its cool as hell! Almost feels like a Tarantinoesque film at times
I completed this game in all the difficulty about 6 years ago. Also collecting those magazines was so fun even though I was underaged lmao. The story of this game was go great.
How did i never know u could just honk the horn to interact with the gas station guy at the gas stamp mission lol, I always got out of my vehicle and kicked the door in and got into the store
What I love about this game is how much loyalty there was between Joe and Veto, I don’t know if it’s Canon but is Joe alive in mafia 3, it’s just Veto never knows
It's defintely due to the era those games were released in as well but few games give me more nostalgia than Assassin's Creed 2, Mafia 2 and Uncharted 2. Fall 2009 till fall 2010 was insane in terms of game releases.
I implore you to give Mafia III another shot. I know people shit on that game but looking at it now, with all the garbage uninspired games we’ve gotten recently, it looks like a masterpiece. Incredibly well written and well acted characters that all feel real, a mature story that doesn’t hold your hand or patronize you, fantastic vehicle physics that make driving a mundane delivery truck fun, incredibly responsive combat and gun play, etc. It gets shit on for being repetitive but those same people jump on Call of Duty and play the same maps with the same guns all day. So if you enjoy the task you’re repeating, it’s a non-issue. Plus, it’s only the mechanic of “cause enough damage to racket” that is repetitive. Everything else is fantastic. I love it.
This game is absolutely fantastic i wish grand theft auto would take some things they do in mafia and add them to their games like speed limits and such lack of traffic laws is something thst always stuck out to me but its still fun
jesus although im "old" and mafia 2 is one of my all time favourite games, i never played it in english. when you bilingual (ger) and you play a game a second time like 10-15 yrs later, in its native language, the voice over is like night and day! like the italian accent and the atmosphere makes it a totally new/different experience. i have to give it a try tho. and man thats funny, 😂joe kinda sounds like joey diaz and after hearing him talk i cannot not think about diaz, even had to look up who did joes voice.
This game even though it was rude he is still a 9/10 for me, it’s story is gripping, the world is sooo good the detail is crazy tbh the reflections on the mirrors are scary good (games even today can’t get reflection’s done! The fact you can interact with almost anything even if it does literally nothing, I could say more but Mafia 2 is an all time great for me
Honestly I like the Italian noises comments you made lol, granted I'm not of Pasta Nationality, but I think it's a nice addition. Watching you play this takes me way back to my teenage years playing Mafia 2, it's like playing the game together with my friend. Thanks for this man.
love your content man. one of a few gaming channel that i can confidently blast audio through speakers wihout sounding like im watching show for kids. love the vibe
this game and far cry 3 raised me pretty much. when cod and halo got too boring. these 2 where always the best to go back to. i STILL play them every year or so atleast once
This was actually the first game in the franchise I played then I played III in 20 or 21 and then the Definitive edition of the original a few months ago. I think in the era the first game was released I had to choose between it and the first Godfather game and went with the latter. I heard the next game is going to be set further in the past then III which I don't like because III had my favorite weapon selection and going further in the past eliminates the possibility of Assault Rifles unless its in the gap between II and III. Plus my favorite Submachine Gun of the era was introduced midway through World War II, around the time Vito was arrested, so if its set before II that won't be an option. My biggest issue with III, which I'm sure is different then most people, is I hated being limited to two guns at a time. IMO Open world games are a lot more fun with at least three weapon slots because there were many times in III I had to ditch guns I liked mid battle for something I disliked either because I was out of ammo or some circumstance came up where my preferred guns weren't suited for whatever I needed to do. SO I hope the next game at least gives us a third weapon slot. Oh and that they don't leave out the Double barrel Shotgun like they did in II. I prefer a Pump-action SHotgun but the Double Barrel Shotgun was an iconic Mafia weapon, and one was wielded by Vito in the first game , in a mission ran from Vito's perspective in this game, so I never understood why they left it out of II.

This game was so versatile. It had prison gameplay, war gameplay, and open world gameplay
Fun fact: Don Carlo was actually a real mob boss in Italy at the time of war and did indeed stop some Italians from firing on American soldiers. Apparently he was quite mad though.

Nothing can beat the first one. I remember playing it for the PC years ago. Loved every minute of it. Nearly 20 years ago 😱

"heeee hooooo"
*heisenberg voice* you’re goddamn right
I haven't laughed so hard in ages. What a great way to relive the game 🤣😂
Every day I pray the remake The Godfather game. That was the ultimate mafia game.
As an Italian that "AYOOEEEE" was perfectly accurate.
This is one or my favorite games of all time
I'm currently playing 3, but my son lent me the trilogy so will be playing this one too. It looks so good.
20:13 I absolutely love that WTF
