No.

Tell us about it.

**vovan** · July 4, 2003, 00:56

Neither have I actually.

Let's hear about it. Some screenies might help, as well.

**Imran Siddiqui** · July 4, 2003, 01:02

I've heard of the game... It's like Grand Theft Auto in the 30s.

Never played it though.

No, it's WAY better then GTAs.. only thing that is simular is that you drive cars in that game as well. It looks good, and it has excellent shooting mode, one of the best I've ever seen/tried, and you get to have those old guns. Tommy gun is really nice and fun to shoot other gangsters. Music is great, old music, but it gets a bit repeatetive. Story is great, awesome, it's like a movie. A long movie.

It's doesn't concentrate on how much blood you can spill, but you still get to spill quite a lot of it. All my buddies that have played it.. all LOVED it. It's something different.. The city you're in.. huge. Absolutely beautiful.
You get hooked.. http://www.mafia-game.com/
Check it out.

It requires quite a lot of power from PC, so you should have a decent computer, otherwise it's not that good.
The minimum requirements? For get it. Recommended requirements? FORGET IT! You need more power than that (you can check it out from the web page I provided).

But I truly recommend you try this game if you're at all interested after viewing the homepage. It's a gangster game with some driving too and it's bound to be a classic.

If it's so good then why have you uninstalled it twice?

I haven't finished my first game yet, and probably never will...
This game might have an interesting story, but it lacks in freedom... you're only got one mission at a time...

I have only had one fun mission...

I do like the fact, if you drive too fast, and cops are nearby, they'll go after you, but you can shake them off also... And you can't unlock all cars from the beginning, you need to learn how to do it first...

This was quite well received IIRC...........I may check it out if I get any spare gaming time.

**Main_Brain** · July 4, 2003, 09:53

Oh how I hated the Race

**Adagio** · July 4, 2003, 10:31

I'm at the race at the moment, I always make one mistake on the final lap, so I only get in second... If it at least was fun to do that race, but it isn't

**Pekka** · July 4, 2003, 13:18

The best missions are definitely after the race. Lots of massive shooting scenes!!!!!!!!! Nice ones too, I recommend you suck it up and torture yourself with the race and complete it. I know, I hated that mission too..

**Alex** · July 4, 2003, 14:34

I've heard about the game before, but I never bothered to even take a look at its screenshots... but these are certainly impressive.

**Imran Siddiqui** · July 4, 2003, 15:24

Yeah, I'm thinking of picking it up myself

.

**OneFootInTheGrave** · July 4, 2003, 15:30

Can you play co-op?

**Skanky Burns** · July 5, 2003, 02:10

Hey, that actually seems interesting.
