What difficulty are you playing on? I'm playing it on normal and found the race easy and did it on my first attempt.

Played about 2 hours earlier on today and I must say I’m really enjoying it, glad I bought this. I’ve had no issues so far on PS4 pro.

I never did get why people struggled with that race on the PC - it was easily done; though I remember them patching the game to skip it :confused:

Anyway, it's still just as easy on this remaster - even on hard with the so-called simulation driving. Might pinch a bike and head back there

I had one police car disappear on PS4 Pro, and some go awful texture pop in - grass rendering just in front of my car, when you head into the countryside

Is hard the same as classic difficulty, classic has simulation handling and says enemies are lethal and police are more alert to speeding and so on.

Loving it so far - many happy childhood memories of playing Tony Hawks 2 and then Mafia - so this years releases have been great

A few little graphical artefacts, but other than that its been great.

My biggest disappointments so far

1. They've moved Salerei's bar, ever so slightly, so I keep driving the wrong way to the bridge
2. The original musical score is not present, other than the initial theme tune

Half way through the base storyline as it stands

Completed the game this afternoon, a pretty solid remake loved it all the way through, I do feel you cannot beat the original though.

Would give this a good 8/10, the characters, sounds and atmosphere were fantastic, and was nice to see it have a graphics upgrade, voice acting was good in some parts - The only thing I didn't really like was the combat, guns felt really meh and the melee was abit rubbish too (dumbed down i guess you could say)

I don't remember any new missions though? I thought there was going to be some new ones, maybe the saint and sinner was?

Stupid question as I’m new to Mafia: there appears to be a number of instances of Mafia on the Xbox store. Definitive, part 1.2 etc. Which is the correct edition I need to buy to get the proper, full monty edition of the 2020 remake? Am I missing out if I just buy the definitive edition?

Scort · 1 Oct 2020 at 15:41

Just finished it, a solid 8/10 with the bugs, would have been a 9 if they had all the original music but alas.

Going to have a nose at the free mode now

Well worth £35 imo

I picked it up yesterday. Amazon had the trilogy for £25, first time in a long time i've bought a physical game.

That intro was lovely and really sucked me in. I'm a little disappointed that the controls haven't been modernised and it feels very clunky, but i suppose that adds to the charm.

XeNoNF50 · 11 Nov 2020 at 13:54

Has this been upgraded/enhanced for the XB Series X?

Martynt74 · 11 Nov 2020 at 14:03

Well i'm a knob!

I thought i'd bought the Trilogy, but turns out i just bought the "Definitive" edition. Now to decide whether to buy the second one. I'm not bothered about the third as wasn't long since i played that anyway.

The 2nd one is just a HD refresh, as opposed to a remake, apparently it was very buggy on release - I'd steer clear
