Mafia II is a game about a duderino who goes and joins the Mafia (Didn't see that coming did ya?) after he comes home from the war. It takes place in some big New York rip off of a city that is forgettable and kind of boring. The story was pretty good, and I actually liked playing through it, but as I played through it, I slowly started to realize that this game was not at all what it seemed to be at the time I bought it. When I was in between missions I was looking forward to playing some side quests, but that was when I realized there are no side quests. I also was going to do some free roaming, but there was nothing to do. The whole campaign felt like one continuous mission that I couldn't really pause or take a break from.

Verdict:

Mafia 2 is an enjoyable game, that I will recommend. (I recommend getting it on sale!)
