IGN gameplay video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Xtq18Vmh3s
I completed Mafia II and had withdrawal symptoms soon after - felt like I was only sratching the surface of a wonderful world. The story was great and I liked the ending simply because it wasn't an ending at all - and that's the point. Once you get into the crime business you can never get out and every time you fix one problem you create two more.
After watching the Mafia III demo I am hyped. The sound design is amazing, the animations are brutal and so well done. I love how jacked Lincoln looks and the way he moves. The city and interiors look gorgeous. They've capture the 60s well with the score music, fashion and culture and it looks really immersive.
I really hope the inevitable downgrade is minimal...
Anyone else looking forward to this? It's out sometime this year.

Looks awesome. The finishing moves continue to make me
Lincoln's hair is different now.
Mafia 3 won't be a day one purchase but I well buy and play it at some point based on how much I liked the second game.
Same! Got it on xbox 360 gold account and had it on the x box for months before giving it a go. Love the setting and story. It's the only (recentlly discovered) last game gen that I can stomach, graphic wise. X box has been killing it with their free games. PS on the other hand...
Apparentley they cut out all the side missions and made them DLCs. Seems to be the new practice these days.
Doesn't exactly sound Italian.
Because he's not, as far as we know...

The voice acting is great, the motion capture... not so much. They could have put the effort in, there's no excuse 2/3 years after current gen launch to have facial animation that bad.
Also, the AI is dumb as hell and the gameplay reminds me too much of Assassin's Creed Syndicate which is NOT a compliment...
style game set in the late 60's, especially seeing as 2K Games is indirectly related to Rockstar Games.
That took my hype level from 100% to 70% tbh when I heard that. Never a good sign.
Could be just because they don't want any spoilers leaked or some other reasons. As far as I'm concerned I really enjoyed Mafia 2 and I've really liked what I've seen of Mafia 3 so I am still looking forward to this on Friday.
Roll on Thursday 5pm can't wait to feed some alligators! ;-)
Nice. Who did you order from?
Let us know what it's like if you get the chance.
Ordered from TheGameCollection, only downloaded the patch, will put a few hours in after work. I have high hopes I loved Mafia 2, not sending out review copies is a slight worry tho
Well I decided to get it now since it's 40gb, plenty of time to preload
One of the worst things about modern day gaming.
I won't play games in this day and age on my PC at 30 fps
A crappy port thanks to consoles I'm pretty pissed at this moment.
Awesome, man. Do give us your first impressions (spoiler free of course!)
