Моя любимая игра, которая никогда не надоест)

The classic after the title not only means it's the original edition of the game, but the fact that it is an all time classic!

Amazingly written and paced story,
Amazing world design, character design,
Atmosphere design is top notch: great sounds, music and visuals

I played it through multiple times throughout the more than a decade of owning the game.

Warning, the open world may not feel as open compared to other open world games, but that wasn't really the aim with this game, but if you want uninterrupted roaming in the amazing city of Empire Bay, the DLC stories are there for you.

Achievement hunters: besides of 3 grindy achievements for "Jimmy's Vendetta" it is an easy and great experience. I would say roughly around 40-45 hours to get them all

Game is unplayable, Constant stuttering, random freezes and crashes.

Amazing game if love movies like Goodfellas, Casino, Ocean's eleven, etc.

Джо в сделку не входил классный сюжет одна из любимых мафия.

In Mafia II, you assume the role of Vito Scaletta, a young Italian who returns home from World War II only to find his mother and sister in debt to a loan shark. Like any character in a gangster film, Vito is determined to escape a life of poverty and opts to pursue a path in organized crime to earn money. Players will accompany Vito as he eliminates rivals, steals vehicles, and tries on various stylish outfits.

The game is set in Empire Bay, a city reminiscent of New York, bustling with people, law enforcement, vehicles, and collectible Playboy magazines. At first glance, Empire Bay appears to be an open world filled with missions and quests for Vito to undertake. However, this is not the case. Players will have only one mission at a time, which consistently propels the narrative forward. The various icons on the map—such as clothing and gun stores—serve merely to enhance the current mission. If you find yourself outgunned and frequently dying, you can purchase superior weapons upon respawning. If the police are pursuing you, you can pay to alter your vehicle's license plate. The game does not allow for wandering the streets of Mafia II to take on side jobs or interact with random characters; it is a world designed around the missions you are engaged in.

Is this a negative aspect? Certainly not—it is simply a noteworthy observation, as it may be easy to assume that the game offers extensive freedom. The downside is that, due to the singular focus on the current task in Empire Bay, the environment feels strangely vacant—it lacks a sense of vitality. While you navigate the streets and encounter other pedestrians and vehicles, it resembles a scene from The Truman Show, where everything occurs solely because of your actions. There is no moment typical of other games, where you realize that life continues independently of your character's journey.

great rich story just like the first better than the remaster version of this game so play this one instead great game its mafia.

Also old czech classic
