Timeless classic with stellar soundtracks and outstanding Script writing.

Mafia II, like the original, wears its cinematic roots proudly on its sleeve, evoking shades of The Godfather, Goodfellas and other mob fiction over the course of its tale. You play Vito Scalleta, a child of Sicilian immigrants who, like many in the 1920s, come to Empire City (a stand in for New York) and grow up in an immigrant district, living in squalor and idolizing the mobsters that show the only tangible promise of bettering his station in life. When the action starts, Vito is now an adult, a war veteran and ready to re-join his childhood friend Joe, who already has promising ties with one of the Families in the area. As is the case in most crime stories, things go anything but straightforward from there. It’s not an original story, but it’s told very well.

Speaking of Empire City there is a time jump from 1945 to 1951 and the jump in time is also handled well, and there is a very real sense of change between the Empire Bay of 1945 and of 1951. 1945 provides a noir atmosphere set in winters and 1951's blended with sunny atmosphere the game took itself to another level and there is lot to notice . my favorite thing to notice was music, which is also a big part of the game’s immersion. Although there are only three radio stations, the music is well chosen, and there are enough songs between the two eras that it never gets stale.

Combat is handy, most combat oriented missions are straight forward, there is lot of untapped potential and lots of driving.Mechanics and game physics feels good. Last thing i'd like to mention that there is an open world element but it isn't an open world game because it is tightly focused on story and execution you get invested in characters.

PUBG is what you get when amateur developers have a good idea for what could be a great game, with a small budget to start with. Now that they've made many millions (close to a billion on PC sales alone) all they see is money. They no longer care about player experience. Why spend money to make the game better when most of the people that would buy the game have already bought it?

Mistakes / poor decisions:

- First mistake was the game engine that they built the game on. It wasn't designed for 100 players, so they had to reduce the server tickrate to ridiculously low rates. There are better engines that can handle 100 players, but I guess they went with the cheaper solution.

- Client side hit detection. This is why you can still get shot after you get into cover. Players with high ping have a big advantage over players with low ping
