Masterpiece
Czech republic doesn't have many games, but when we decide to create one, it'r really worth it - Mafia, Operation Flashpoint, Armed Assault, VietCong, Hidden & Dangerous...
MAFIA is one of the best games ever!!
This game is a prime example of the time of where the story of a game really mattered along with realistic textures.
It doesn't have amazing physics, it doesn't have amazing explosions, it doesn't have nice realistic effects.
It does however have a brilliant story with realsitic characters and a realistic environment.
That's all you really need.
One of my favourite games of all time. The story is great and the world is realistic. The game really makes you feel like a member of the Mafia.
I love it for the action, but i don't like it for the race.
Fun GTA-like third person shooter game.
Mafia is the best game ever - there are no similar games, Mafia goes it's own way. Graphic may be old now, but story is so strong and intensive I'm able to play this game again, and again, and again...
