MAFIA II is a good game that is worth your money and time.

The story follows a young man named Vito Scaletta as he tries to rank up in a mafia crime-family. I will just say the overall story is good and with a twisted ending that will leave you wanting more. The game is clearly inspired by movies like The Godfather and Goodfellas.

The gameplay is a mix of interesting and bland missions, not that they take away from the overall experience. You can customize cars, buy clothes for your main protagonist, buy different guns, also as you advance through the story you will change houses (starting from your mothers apartamanet to a nice luxurious penthouse. The game could have used more side missions (to involve the city more). Also i would of loved more costumes for Vito.

The visuals are verry good, i didnt encounter any big visual bugs in this game so that's a plus. The cars in the game are verry detailed and good-looking but the buildings look kinda strange sometimes (like cardboard boxes).

One thing the game nails right from the start is putting you in Vito's shoes, you actually feel that the story evolves around you.

My overall rating for MAFIA II: 9/10
