Definitive Edition is a great remake. Hangar 13 respects the work of Illusions Softworks and expands it to improve every aspect of the game.

We especially like how well the developers preserve the spirit of the original, while at the same time extending the story in a meaningful way.

Es una obra de arte, la historia es una barbaridad, los personajes estan muy bien trabajados y tienen personalidad, la historia tiene muy buen final, las misiones son didacticas y entretenidas. ¡Buen día!

Sure, here’s a shorter critique of *Mafia: Definitive Edition*:---**Mafia: Definitive Edition (2020): A Stunning Remake with Some Flaws***Mafia: Definitive Edition* is a beautiful remake of the 2002 classic, with modernized visuals, improved driving and shooting mechanics, and a re-recorded score that brings the 1930s world of Lost Heaven to life. The updated graphics are stunning, with the city feeling alive and vibrant, and the story of Tommy Angelo’s rise through the mob still hits hard.However, while the remake enhances many aspects, it struggles with pacing, especially during the middle of the game, where long driving sections and repetitive missions can feel tedious. The AI still feels scripted, and there’s a lack of modern open-world features like meaningful side content. Technical issues, like frame drops and occasional save glitches, also hold it back from being a flawless experience.Overall, *Mafia: Definitive Edition* is a faithful and visually impressive remake that modernizes the original while maintaining its core appeal. While not perfect, it’s a worthwhile experience for fans of the original and newcomers to the series. (i cum to this game)

Mafia: Definitive Edition is a remake of mixed flavours. Some elements are just as they used to be, and it's great. Some elements are just as they used to be, and it's awful. Mixture of aged mechanics and amazing graphics, new voices, great old story and some added, yet bad storylines, make it not such a perfect remake. But it sure is worth your time, whether you are a fan of the original or not. The moral of the story survived in all its glory, just be sure to focus your attention to the details where Mafia used to and still shines the most.

If you're a fan of the original Mafia then you should give this remake a try. It captures the spirit of the game while also making it a thoroughly modern shooter. If you never played Mafia, then this doesn't feel like a nostalgia project but a new game. The split structure of the story mode and open world may be unusual when lined up against its current competitors, but if you find yourself lost in large open worlds like Assassin's Creed and are looking for something that has more respect for your time, Mafia may be for you.

Mafia definitive Edition is a good remake. Visually, the game is sublime and the few small additions, especially concerning the driving are appreciable. If this 2020 version suffers from a lot of technical problems and cannot completely hide that the original game is 18 years old, the quality of writing and the mafia atmosphere offer a great moment of immersion in the underworld.

The main difference between the remake and the original game is that the latter was outstanding for its time, while the Definitive Edition is “merely” good. Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s not worth your time. What’s crucial here is the fact that Hangar 13 approached the original’s narrative with proper respect and refrained from changing it too much. Mafia: Definitive Edition might not be remarkable as an open-world action game, but it still has the story worthy of the most revered gangster movies. [12/2020, p.28]

The remake stays true to the original, but storytelling and mechanics feel terribly outdated, giving you the impression that this is more of a remaster not reaching its full potential.

Mafia 1 also known as the GTA copy (which is kinda dumb) is an exceptional piece of gaming. It seriously baffles me that I never gave this game a chance until a year ago. Greatest turnaround I've ever done in gaming. Easily one of the best and most underrated story games ever.

Fantastic story & I loved the time period, but the world doesn't seem real & interactive like in GTA. Shooting isn't the best, but I still enjoyed myself.

Un videojuego que me encantó por su historia, pero lo mató el bug de los trofeos, debí pasarme el juego de tirón y en bucle, y que los desarrolladores de hangar 13 no se preocupaeran de arreglarlo, me parece lamentable, el juego en 2016 salió increíblemente roto, pero el bug de los contadores de los trofeos acumulativos es ya demasiado, menos mal pude platinarlo, de la historia no tendría un solo pero, el juego sería un 7 en el cómputo, pero la historia de lincoln clay es de 10 el contenido secundario y las misiones son muy repetitivas definitive edition no arregla nada el fallo de los contadores sigue solo puedes jugar del tirón

The race still massively ****. impossible to win.

****/yn9ezZhQuXo Hangar13 Games Studio ! You should have made a full-fledged freeride in the game, since you introduced it into the main game! Hangar13 are just lazy people who do not respect their product! ****/yn9ezZhQuXo
