Mafia II | Definitive Edition - May 19, 2020

First one was one of my favorite games of all time...stuff like Godfather couldn't even get close to it.

With weather effects and such its looking pretty cool so far. Release TBA 2010.

The first one was pretty amazing, though I hope they're not going to keep the speed limit crap.

I spent most of my time trying to dodge cops from giving me speeding tickets.

I picked it up when it came out for the PS2. That version was plagued with the worst fucking loading times I've ever seen in any game. Any time you would go over one of the bridges you were hit with a loading screen that lasted easily for a minute, I timed it once and it ended up by 77 seconds. Aside from that, it was a pretty fun game.

New trailer with game play footage. DO WANT.

Looks like everything the godfather games game play should have been.

[Mayareira]

Yep, looks terrific. Original Mafia was incredibly good and I'm not expecting anything less than that.

This has become a day one for me, when it finally comes out. I would like to collect playboys.

Take-Two announced today that Mafia II is ready to offer North American retail an August 27, 2010, release date -- we doubt they'll refuse. We guess that leaves LA Noire or Max Payne 3 (we'll be shocked if it's Civilization V) as the game that could potentially be delayed by the publisher. (Umm, assuming this final date doesn't get gunned down at the last minute.)

The game will also be playable by the public for the first time at PAX East, which starts tomorrow in Boston.

August 24th! Sounds good, summer is usually a drought for new releases.

Nice, finally a date, please dont push it back.

[Mayura]

Nice, finally a date, please dont push it back.

It probably will. Like GTA4 addons, Red Dead Redemption & many more lately. :/

[Mayareira]

24 August sounds great, they were aiming for 3rd quarter for a while.

While I'm at it let me post some new screenshots.

Weather effects looks great:

I'm very impressed so far. Original Mafia was exceptionally good and this has been in development for a LONG time now.

DEMO CONFIRMED - August 10th

http://www.ngohq.com/news/18250-mafi...gust-10-a.html

Seems they have concentrated more on the PC which is a nice change for most games these days. The original was one of the best PC games iv ever played. (once i got passed that damn race track mission)

The console ports of the original where not so great so glad they focused more on the PC build.

Looking forward to this, looks so beautiful.

[Mayareira]

Demo is out on Steam

[Hyan]

I liked it, the atmosphere was much better than in GTA4 for example, had that little Vice City feel to it, more colors and stuff. The gameplay also felt smooth to me. I didn't expect that I'd like it but now I'm sold!

[Mayareira]

It'll be much more fun than GTA, that's given.

After all Mafia awesomeness and all these years in development...I wasn't expecting anything less.
