Like most crime series in the open world, Mafia was initially dubbed by the GTA clone when the original game was released in 2002. However, over the years, the series managed to resign from the GTA comparison and became its own business. Part of the reason is that it can separate from the Rockstar series because of its environment and the fact that games revolve around Mobster.
In addition, unlike many others in the genre, most of the series are focused on narration and characters, instead of running around quarantines and blowing things. Every game excels in the narration of a convincing narrative full of emotional and shocking moments. In addition, they offer some fun ride and combat mechanics. Yet, of all these games, which one is the best? Here is the evaluation of all.
Mafia 3
Mafia 3 deserves recognition for trying something else with his story. Instead of elaborating a crime family, you will try to overthrow one while creating your own business. In addition, the game contains a lot of tactful social comments about the US after the Vietnam War. All of this remains convincing. It helps impressive writing and voice playing the game.
Unfortunately, the real act of systematic dismantling of your enemy's operations is a bit slog. The takeover of missiles and districts involves playing many similar missions that are very repeated over time. There are only so many times when you can slip or shoot a building without stopping.
Mafia
Although there are some game series where the first item is the best, it is usually not. Continuation often builds on the foundations set in the original, and this is in the case of mafia. As a result, the original mafia feels very dated compared to the new ones. This is best seen in the shooter, which is a bit basic and clumsy. Even voice acting sounds a bit wooden.
This means that there are reasons why this game was able to run the series in the first place. The atmosphere and the city are amazing. Even better is the engaging narrative around Tommy Angela, who sets out in the Salieri Crime family. Although voice acting is not perfect, high -quality characters and narratives allow some captivating cutscenes.
Mafia: Old Country
The old country differs from other games in the series in that it is set in the first years of the crowd. This allows very different settings and time periods from other titles. And the version of Italy from the beginning of the 20th century is beautiful. Despite the change in the scenery, however, the real assumption is not original. You are experiencing a young man in the crowd, which is a common scenario for these games. However, this is very well done and contains some well -written characters. In addition, the love story between the protagonist and Don's daughter adds more wrinkles to the story.
When it comes to gameplay, except for combat with a knife, everything else is quite standard for the series. This lack of originality is made up of smoothness of struggle and secrecy. As a full package, the game in most areas is good, but it does not resist too far from the established Mafia pattern.
Mafia 2
With Vito and Joe Mafia 2 boasts two of the best characters in the series and both appear a lot during the game. This is one of the many things this title is worth it. The story of Vita, which deals with the way in the criminal world, does not differ much since the narration of the first game. Yet he has his own fair share of twists and turns that allows him to feel different and remain fascinating.
Another way of the game is its capital. Empire Bay is one of the most famous cities in the series. It is a pleasure to drive around and cause confusion. Speaking of the way that it is very pleasant in this game, the general struggle for weapons and melee is very pleasant and all those years later hold well.
Mafia: Definitive edition
The original game Maifa already has one of the best stories in the series. Tommy's ascension of Salieri makes an incredible adventure. The definitive edition maintains this storyline, but updates all other aspects of the game to be the best that the series offers.
These updates begin with voice acting and dialogue that are much better in this version and among the best in the history of the series. It helps like Tommy, Paulie and Sam, is even more interesting and fun. Enhancements of the game are also evident in the basic game. Everything from driving to shooting to sneaking feels very satisfactory in this title. Moreover, everything in the game looks incredibly realistic, from models to the face. Overall, it is a truly final mafia experience.
