    I'm so looking forward to this game. Everything about the time period just fascinates me.

    Oh, and those are some pretty sexy screenshots too.

    Exactly what I was going to say. These screenshots are absolutely gorgeous. I can't wait to play this game, as I loved the first one.

    Game's looking gorgeous. That gameplay footage from E3 or whenever got me all hot and bothered, too. I want to play this.

    Mafia 1 was a flawed gem. The story was strong, the missions were pretty varied and tough, the realism was perhaps a little too high (even speeding would get you police attention). The sandbox city was great in the sense that it was immersive but it didn't act as much more than scenery while traveling from point A to B. I hope Mafia 2 makes the city more open, even if its still directed when you're on a mission. Let the protagonist chill out in a diner and watch the world pass, or knock off a store / bank, or rob people in the park, or run numbers etc. Lots of mafia sorts of things to do. I don't think it has to be open as GTA but it can do more than the first did.

    @DrXym:"even speeding would get you police attention"


    Honestly it should within reason. But so far, no game gets this right. We have GTA4's "Kill 10 people with hit and runs, no prob, bump a cop and you've got SWAT on your ass." and what you spoke of.

    "And pedantic almost as if the game is saying, "Look, this is what we can do with storytelling, yay!""


    So it's gonna be like MGS 4 then??

    Pretty harsh write up, but then again, these are issues that must be addressed now or only cause the game issues later.

    @Foxstar is in love with Kotaku's two Brians.: I really like that he was harsh. I'm sick of seeing ass-kissing previews. So hitting on the negative aspects that he saw is great. It shows that the game has some worth to go and allows those of us really excited for the game to tone down the hype a little bit and wait to see where these problems end up.

    @Derangel:True. Hype kills a lot of games, sales wise.
