QUOTE:
Mafia will make you appreciate video games as an artform, and not just as a consumer product.


If you guys haven't already played and beaten Mafia I suggest that you do. I don't care how you 'acquire' the game (torrent, buy, borrow, steal), but this game really is one of the best single player games ever created. Mafia has quite possibly the greatest storyline of any game and the voice acting will make you appreciate voice acting because it's unparalleled. Aside from a few bugs (as a CS player ... how much do bugs really affect you?) this game is 10/10.
The storyline ALONE makes this game WELL WORTH playing. The missions are great, the gameplay is amazing, driving around can be a bit boring at times but it's worth playing. The environment is engaging, the cutscenes are captivating and this game willThis game is so suck you in once you get starting. The game gets good fairly quickly (after 1 or 2 slow missions that are quick to beat). There is a racing mission that may take you a few hours to beat but you'll eventually get it, or you can download a saved point after the race mission. PLEASE PLAY THIS GAME.

Take into consideration that when you start the game it is during the 1930's and the cars are SLOW. As you progress and the storyline progress the technology gets better and the cars get FASTER and COOLER. You will enjoy storing up cars in your garage and walking around deciding which whip you will roll out in during missions with your Mafiosos and after time you will probably enjoy driving around the city in your disgusting top-of-the-line cars.

If you're in high school, this game may inspire you to learn programming or get into video game development. It's that good.

Please get, play and beat Mafia.
Mafia II is coming out soon and you will have wished that you played Mafia I.


Also, Duarte is a feggit for not playing Mafia.


If this post means nothing to you, watch the intro in HQ.
(the sounds and graphics are much better in HQ)

Mafia is an old game, not the best graphics, but neither is 1.6


Some Review Quotes from http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms..
QUOTE:
Looks and sounds great, it's exciting, it's suitably bug-free, and, at a time when eight hours is becoming the standard length for single-player shooters, it's long. Quite simply, Mafia is one of the best games of the year.
-GameSpot

The question here is: why don't you own this game already? This is an excellent game.
-GameZone

Outside of my complaint with the racing level and a few very minor issues, Mafia is a really immersive game. The story is very good, and the cutscenes and voice acting are of the highest caliber.
-Gamers' Temple

Mafia is dripping with style and class and has certainly shoved itself into the ranks of the best games of this year.
-IGN

It's not "GTA 3." It goes way above and beyond the arcadey style of GTA, and is just an overall satisfying game.

Yeah it does suck a little, but it's always fun ramping over draw bridges when the barges go through. And during one of the missions where you have to drive up a big hill it's worth it because you steal that guys car in Oak Hill ;o


PLAY THIS GAME. IT WILL HUMBLE YOU.

#12 yeah the storyline is much better and actually realistic as it pertains to the Mafia ... GTA is an arcade version of Mafia.

I'm positive you can find a torrent for it if you spend the 5 minutes to search for it. I know a lot of people who torrented this game in the past and since Mafia II is coming out i'm sure the seeders/leachers will increase for Mafia

OMG I fucking loved this game when I was younger. Randomly saw it at a Costco and decided to pick it up, especially because there was no Godfather game at the time and I wanted to be a mafioso.
Hills are a bitch, but overall this is one of my all time favorite games. Also, fuck Sam.
I let my friend borrow it awhile back, and it was still in his possession when he went into the army, so I'd have to download it if I wanted to play again :[

Also, can't wait for Mafia 2

#19 when you're chasing Morello to the airport @ the end, if you have a FAST car and drive it well he wont even GO to the airport he drives straight .. to where .. i don't want to tell you :D haha it'll ruin it

QUOTE:

Also in Chapter 16 "Creme De La Creme" Sometimes Morello won't turn at the airport and will go straight.
If you keep up with him you will eventually reach a bridge with an alternate cutscene instead of him taking off
in the airplane. It helps to have a fast car, like the Silver Fletcher.

I always loved the Motel collection mission the most. The sniper and ship missions rank up there as well. Always hated the dock mission though.

Yeah the ship was pretty cool and the political assassination was definately awesome but the jail was pretty nerve-wracking... I ALWAYS felt like there were people in EVERY room and i was going to get RAPED ... they definitely did a great job designing that jail lol...

I like the 2 small missions where you had to walk the guys daughter home and the other one where you chased the guy inside the apartment building and then he sneaks out the window and you chase him outside haha ..

The hotel was GREAT.

Visiting Rich People was AMAZING!~ The mission where you start outside that mansion with a baseball bat and all the people on patrol have pump shotguns ...

Good memories :o

Got it a long time ago, played through it, enjoyed it.

With that said, since imported likes it and he is a tool, I am unfortunately going to have to stop liking it.

I never had too much problem with the controls ... the biggest problem which I ran into was that during 2 missions I just couldn't figure out where to go and what to do and there's no indicators or tip boxes or anything ... they said it's something that they're going to address for Mafia II ... but the second time I beat it I had no problems at all.


Great game, keep posting ~ ;o

#43 the link in #40 works fine. after you mount the 3 .cue files (i used daemon tools), you just copy/paste the crack and it works perfectly.
