Mafia Definitive Edition on PS5Game Completed : Nov 7, 2021Playtime : 18 hoursI haven't played the original but the remastering of anMafia Definitive Edition on PS5Game Completed : Nov 7, 2021Playtime : 18 hoursI haven't played the original but the remastering of an old game as a whole is excellent from its visual to facial expression. There are drawbacks but this maybe because of its outdated game design. Overall, the story is great but not for a large game. It may have something to do with the game being made originally more than 20 years ago. its quite linear and there are absolutely no progression system therefore it feels like playing a story telling game.

I didn't feel nostalgia either.I don't see much point in such remakes. Better to create something new and high quality.
felt great to come back again in the world of Mafia! As soon as the intro started with the fly through the city memories came back! the remakefelt great to come back again in the world of Mafia! As soon as the intro started with the fly through the city memories came back! the remake is great, graphics are great, the story is more than awesome! in 2002 when we were in school we were playing it already and said how cool it is, still today we are saying how cool it is! why not 10 of 10 ? because of the controls, it felt quite uncomfortable at the beginning, you are getting used to it but it is a weird handling when you come from other games.

The graphics are great, but the gameplay seems that it was not updated and stuck a few generations ago.I was excited when I started playing the game an saw the lovely new graphics, but by the time I got to my first gun battle and fist fight, I knew the remaster was a wasted opportunity.The shooting mechanics are just off to me, bad guys fall in a scripted animation and the shooting physics are very weak.+ great storytelling+ great graphics- Not much to do other than the single player story.- weak physics in the game- clipping and behind cover mechanics caused some deaths or game fail conditions- movement of the character is stiff during combat.- The frame rate is very bad, this should have easily reached 60fps without fail in 2020.Avg at best, recommend trying it for the story if you can grab it on sale.
unplayable...i'm in the beginning of the game where im on a foot chase and as i go to hop over a fence (you have to hop over this exact fence)unplayable...i'm in the beginning of the game where im on a foot chase and as i go to hop over a fence (you have to hop over this exact fence) my character falls through the screen. this isnt just a bug the character keeps falling so i now can see the entire city above me. after 5 seconds i fall far enough where it says "you abandoned the mission". i have retried several times and get the same thing. this is literally 15 minutes into the game. the game has been out for several months ho is there not a patch for this? oh also, i watched the video 2k launched as they were making it. saying "this is not a reversed compatible game, we are redoing the entire game. the graphics sure as hell do not look like an xbox one error game. it looks like a reversed compatible xbox 360 game. first it was watchdogs legion that sucked, then cyberpunk and now mafia DE. what a major upset 2020 was for gaming.
