Fantastic story, fantastic open world, fantastic voice acting, fantastic graphics for a 2010 title. Mafia II is one of the best games ever made, simply because it bridges the gap between games and movies. Many reviewers are critical of the game because Mafia II takes place in an open world, much like massive games like GTA or even Saints Row. However, Mafia II is a much more serious game with a focus on a good story rather than the gameplay itself. Mafia II sets out to tell you a story, which it does expertly, rather than giving you an open world playground. That being said, the city of Empire Bay is a riveting place both in the snowy 1940s section of the game, as well as the more vibrant 1950s section. Combining an excellent soundtrack with good graphics and excellent art direction, the game uses the city as a backdrop for the story of Mafia II rather than using it simply as a location for players to go on shooting sprees. Buy this game if you like stories; not if you like "open world" games.Read full review

This game is smiliar to saints row and grand theft auto, but not as good as either. The music is great...actual oldies songs play on radios, and the collectables are the best you will ever see (vintage playboys). Overall this was a fun game, but you would probably only want to play through it once
Great deal for a great game

Not a very good game, many bad mechanics and issues, though the graphics and story are great and simply tooling around can be fun, until you die and get reset to thew beginning of the mission.
