its 2016, is gaming dead? Why have there been on good games the last couple years that became household names or are really any good?
Games like the Order and this new Mafia seem to be the only games getting any attention because Mafia is already being called one of the greatest games of the last ten years because it features a minority as the main character which means its revolutionary in game design putting it years ahead of developers?
I'm sure a few people will be along shortly to post webms that show Mafia 3 is nothing more than Hatred on a AAA budget.
Leo Jackson
But hatred was a pretty fun top down shooter. Not as good as something like Killzone: Liberation but it was still quite enjoyable.
Nicholas King
Hatred was so hated it was banned on steam because of complaints from Parents and how it is unsafe for children to play. How can they sell a game like Mafia 3 knowing a child might see someone play it, or what if they even played it themself? How much could the company be sued for since it would destroy the innocence of the child?
Owen Johnson
Thankfully based fat boy stepped in and brought it back. So good to live in this glorious new era where people who claim to enjoy video games call for them to be censored.
Kevin Ross
Protecting a child is the number one priority of any real game developer worth their salt in game design. Anything that can harm a child like we saw in Hatred must be avoided from a AAA studio or the government will find ways to shut them down through audits or regulation. Every child is sacred.
Leo Green
I don't mind crap like this, I've got a backlog with plenty of games to go. If the political left wants to sing their swan song as the world leaves them behind, it's fine by me.
As a bonus, studios like the limp wristed fags at Hangar 13 will shut down and be replaced by studios that actually want to make money.
Gavin Garcia
Buying Steep and playing by myself because no one else is byying it.
People died for this game just for it to fail.
Christian Myers
What system? I'm pretty pumped for this. w-we could play together, user...
Cameron Hughes
>As a bonus, studios like the limp wristed fags at Hangar 13 will shut down and be replaced by studios that actually want to make money. How can hangar 13 be shut down when their owned by 2k and 2k invests tens of millions in them? That studio is swimming in money almost at 100 million now their saying from 2k to make the new Mafia 3 game.
Jaxon Nguyen
Anyone who doesnt buy the new Mafia 3 is only proving one thing.
That their a racist.

Gaming has been dead since fucking 2008 kiddo. Nothing but weeb shit and AAA garbo since then pretty much.
Isaac Phillips
Shitpicking a game by pointing out a single bug only proves your racist for looking for problems in a game instead of focusing on the biggest feature which is having a protag who is a minority.
Easton Baker
Mafia 3 looks fun.
I really like how it's story is framed as a documentary
Owen Perez
I played Mafia 3, it's good. The driving sucks and the story has a few points where it gets hamfisted, but it's pretty great overall.
Jace Anderson
kek, watch the 2 hour long gameplay video and try and find a 5 mintue stretch of gameplay where the AI isn't straight up BROKEN and NONFUNCTIONING.

trump supporters arent real gamers if they dont support gender diversity and multiculturalism in games. Gaming was always meant as a platform to promote a progressive agenda which is why we buy games, and games like Mafia that have a black person as the main character will sell millions of copies like BF1 because of that.

Jace Sullivan
The game is going to be shit, it's going to sell like shit, and then the Mafia franchise is going to be thrown into the vault never to be seen again, so good riddance. Also video games aren't dying, Mobile is going to keep the market alive for years to come.

speaking as a gamer Im hyped for Mafia 3 and been generating buzz on social media about how excited I am for the game and getting tons of retweets from doing it, even this one girl I crushed on retweeted one of my tweets about Mafia 3 which may be the ice breaker I need to win her over finally. Try it out bros!

You can't have non-italians as made-men in the mafia.
Is this game not even about the mafia?

Thomas Sanders

Brandon Wood
Of course it's dumb, it's just called mafia to have guaranteed profits from fans it will disappoint.
Robert Gutierrez
yea but mafia fans are stupid, we all know their gonna buy it because of the name being to dumb to know the game has nothing to do with the original games.
Owen Price
They don't need money from the fans, they already have a bunch of SJW who's gonna buy the game to support the agenda,never play it and call anyone an entitled racist piece of shit if they dare to criticize the game.
It's always like that
Daniel Gray
Well to be honest I don't even thinks it's even fans, it's just profiting off brand name that was the original game and to some extent the second title since most people who actually played and lvoed the first game were already wary after going through the dissapointment that was the second one.
Jeremiah Long
>SJWs >buying games or watching movies
Haha no, why do you think the ghotbusters movie bombed? It wasn't because it wasn't progressive enough to attract SJWs, it's because the SJWs aren't a market.
Wyatt Hall
i'm not buying it, it looks beyond terrible
Zachary Miller
Then the game gonna bomb senpai and they're gonna blame the racists.
Julian Johnson
I used to love snowboarding games. I might buy it if reviews don't turn up shit.
Jayden Barnes
I just saw a mafia 3 commercial, and it was actually pretty hype
Thomas Rogers
What if I'm black? Would that just be internalized racism or something?
Jacob Parker
Of course they are, the SJWs are loud and insert themselves into everything just like Cred Forums and it makes them look like they're actual demographics of the industry, so the PR and marketing branches demand accomodation of SJWs demands to attract that perceived demographic as well as earn free virtue points. Once the game bombs because the original fans were disappointed they have to find somebody to shift the blame on so they blame pirates or actual dedicated fans as sexist racist bigots

Watch this, perfect example of how dumb and bad the AI is. You also have x-ray vision which makes zero sense in this game. This is Mafia, not Hitman. He also teleports into animations instead of transitioning into them.
Then look at 0:40 here. The AI is just standing there shooting with one hand, they don't move while shooting, they don't take cover. Then skip to 1:36, and listen to the NPC doing the same recorded lines over and over again "UGHHH UH UH", 3x in a row. Holds his belly after getting shot in the legs. Keep watching and listen to the cringeworthy voice acting.
Then there's this, the graphics are extremely bad, the game is too bright and the colors are washed out. The world feels empty, NPCs look like they belong in a different game.
Skip to 6:28, look at the ragdoll, it just looks lazy.
The located damage is worse than in Mafia 2.
He's using modern weapons in a game set in the 60s.
It says it's historically accurate, yet there is no racism in this game. The police calls your main character "colored male", but I'm sure in 60s New Orleans they'd call him a coon or something.
Look at the fight at 2:18, do you legit think that looked good or exciting?
Voice lines from NPCs sound like some weird loud noise and have no difference in volume depending on what theyre doing or how far away they are. Your footsteps are sometimes louder than the voice lines, which proves the game has terrible audio mastering and mixing.
There's clipping while you hit solid objects.
You will pretend it looks good and deflect all of this by calling Cred Forums racist because you're a tool for marketing
Kevin Russell
>Mafia, an italian word used to describe the Sicilian Syndicate >black protag ????
Brb, making a game called Beltrán Leyva (the cartel in mexico) and make the protag a Japanese guy

Brb, making a Bratva (russian syndicate) game with the protag being an Arab

You're not part of the mafia in the game, retard
Cameron Cooper
This has probably been said a million times but clearly you haven't seen it so I'll tell you.
You don't actually play as the mafia in this game. They changed it to fighting the mafia instead so they could shove a black protag in.
Logan Watson
Reminder that they gave the game early to RadBrad who said it was the single best game he ever played in a long time and they had that as the steam description for the longest time.
Clearly he actually liked the game and totally didn't want more free stuff from this company guys.
Nathaniel Gray
Then what is the point? If I can't play as a mafioso I'm not interested
Dylan Thompson
So don't buy it.
Ian Taylor
The teleporting looks so fucking bad
Christopher Martin
That's not answering his question.
Carter Turner
Game looks fun. The shootouts look pretty top notch.
Elijah Ramirez
That was the point he made.
Why use a game branded as MAFIA where in the first 2 games you were in the MAFIA doing MAFIA things.
So yeah now in MAFIA 3 you're a nigger doing nothing related to the MAFIA
Might aswell make the next call of duty a racing game.
Ian Kelly
>They changed it to fighting the mafia instead so they could shove a black protag in
I think this is the most retarded thing.
If they wanted to do this, they should've just made a Punisher game.
Hell, they could even have a female protag, pic related
Isaac Wood
Mafia is also a word that can be used for any group of organized criminals.
Camden Nguyen
I already told you the point, to have a black protag.
Daniel Allen
No... you fuckwit.
Zachary Edwards
That's all well and good, but I think the point he was trying to make was >Mafia, play as a Mafioso >Mafia II, play as a Mafioso >Mafia III, play as a mulatto massacring whites and Donald Trump lookalikes One of these things is not like the other, care to take a guess which one?
Speaking of Mafia 3, whats with the tiny mouse cursor that flashes at 3:57? I thought that was just mine for a sec, I just found it weird because I've never noticed it in these AAA trailers before.
Luis Ramirez
In all the promotional material he is only ever seen shooting vague white people. It's actually kind of unsettling
Asher Rivera
Nothing has changed, you're just growing older, finding less joy from your hobby, and getting depressed. Cheer up, friend! We are here for you.
Carter Foster
You are playing a Mafioso in Mafia III. You are a member of the black mob hunting down the Italian mob.
It's good that they're iterating. We really don't need another 1940s/1950s mobster game. Maifa and Mafia II cover it pretty well.
Owen Campbell
But it's [insert current year]
Aiden Reyes
All black people are gonna buy the new mafia game because it has a black main character. Only uncle tom's wont buy it because their too busy sucking up to whitey. This is the new direction of games to reach a wider audience by having more minorities in lead roles though it being a male is still offensive to most of us who are gamers.
Bentley Thompson
What about my racist?
Jonathan Martin
>black >mob
I mean you could stretch the meaning of organized crime and call the irish gangs mafia, but the blacks were anything but organized.
Alexander Torres
>In all the promotional material he is only ever seen shooting vague white people. It's actually kind of unsettling
Yeah because this game has racism as an underlying theme you retarded Cred Forumsfag.
Ryder Jenkins
your a racist if your not supporting Mafia 3, all those videos prove is that if the MC is black you will find a reason not to buy it instead of buying it to support multicultural awareness which the devs said is the main selling point since the african american protag is the best feature of the game itself.
Owen Ortiz
definitions change over time. That's been known to happen. The first two games had already told their stories so they needed a change. I would've been happier with a game about the triads or cartels but this also fine
Ethan Price
christ they can't even make cinematic trailers properly
what a mess
if this game does well then I quit vidya
Camden Moore
gaming is fine, Doom was a great game
Mafia III can suck for all I care, the first game was one of my favorites, but the series is already dead to me
looking forward to what the former 2K Czech are working instead of 2K's trash
I don't fucking care. I'm a mixed mulatto faggot who plays video games to get away from real life not have more of it shoved down my throat.
I hope this game bombs

Boy you're dense, aren't you.
Who in the fuck actually refers to black gangs as Mafia? Your point is invalid.
Adrian Rodriguez
>definitions change over time of course they do, but they have to have a reason to change, changing definition of rape to include forceful kissing and groping just so you can shout about how rape is prevalent is not a valid reason.
Just like changing definiton of mafia so you can include black gangs is not a valid reason, because mafia typically meant a crime 'family'/syndicate of italian origin, just like the yakuza means the same for japanese, and triad for chinese etc.
Xavier Kelly
my god all this footage looks horrible
this game isn't even worth pirating and I'm being completely serious

John James
Third party stealth marketing bros hired by 2k, please come back after the game is released an officially flops, I want to hear how demoralizing it is being paid minimum wage to push garbage products and then see your efforts flush down a toilet.
The stealth marketers who worked for Eidos Montreal didn't oblige me after their game tanked.
Connor Carter
That's one organization, okay. Fair enough. Most people use Mafia to refer to a syndicate of Southern Italian origin. Mafia "can" apply to other races but every other gang has its own name. Japanese gangs are "Yakuza," Chinese gangs are "Triads," black and Latino gangs go by their proper names like "Bloods," "Crips," and "MS-13."
Anyway it still doesn't excuse the fact that out of the blue, when the reins of the game get turned over from Eastern European devs who lived through a Communist dictatorship to trust fund baby, white male SJWs in Northern California that the narrative of the game goes from playing a Mafioso of Southern Italian origin to a black """""Mafia""""" member who goes around killing whites and Donald Trump lookalikes.
Lincoln Garcia
This. And fuck youtubers like levelcap, matimio and other homos that just market garbage blindy saying its the greatest shit trying to make it look fun. Then they quit after the game comes out, surprising ?
Jacob Peterson
Mafia 3 looks like alot of fun. Easy Allies already said the game was great. Aside from some physics glitches, and some bugs which will more than likely be in the game, everything else will be great. Every game has flaws, its about what the game has OTHER than flaws that determines if the game is good or not. Also, Mafia 3 is no different from 1 or 2. Both 1 and 2 had lack-luster gameplay, but made that up with the story, and mafia 3 is no different.
Christopher Long
>Easy Allies already said the game was great Why is this endorsement significant in any way?

Notice how they say "black mafia" and not "mafia."
As in "the black equivalent of the mafia."
Brayden Rivera
I love how no matter how hard anyone shills this game they cannot defend this. The sheer amount of incompetence on show here is unbelievable. How could anyone in charge see this and say "yeah, good job guys that looks awesome". It gets worse each time I watch it.
Brody Williams
Exactly. Plus I've never heard of these chucklefucks anyway.
Lucas Perry
It's weird though with Mafia 3, there was absolutely zero build up to it. I honestly didn't even know that it was coming out soon, Watch Dogs 2 looks as forgettable but that at least had people know the game existed.
Ethan Fisher
Everyone not an SJW or a alt righter knows both sides are the same Alt righter are eclipsing SJWs now, though

And "you only hate it because niggers" isn't a valid defense to most either.

Hanger 13 already said its about Lincoln finding a family[black mafia] losing that family and then going after the people to killed he family[Itialian mafia], his race does not change the story, and the mafia Lincoln creates has two whites and two blacks.

Except the the first was written by Vavra. The second was too but 2K shat all over it before release hence why it was disappointment and why Vavra left. The third one was written by some comic books hack and has absolutely nothing to do with the previous two games aside from same publisher.

But is does finish mafia 2's storyline. And we dont know if Hanger 13 is shit or not. But they will give it there best, I mean think about if YOU were hanger 13. You would want to make the best game you could so you could go on and get more work. They are not EA or Ubisoft where they could just shit out a game and it would still sell, Hanger 13 has to put effort for it to sell.
Christian Jones
How many GoW games were there before GoW 1 where you played as the god of war?
Yes, zero.
Now, how many Mafia games were there before 3 where you played as the Mafia?
Yes, two.
So Mafia fans are somehow the assholes for being upset that they're no longer able to do what they enjoyed the series for? Yeah, they're so racist.

I'm sure it will be just racists that will be to blame when Mafia 3 gets overshadowed by everything else coming out.

Nicholas Morgan
it proves their racists when its the same name but a different premise with a new protagonist. Thats why all gamers will buy Mafia 3 since its not about race, its about all the exciting gaming features never seen before in gaming.
Camden Myers
Now this is shilling
Hudson Thomas
What? What does that have to do with the game footage being show. Even if what you're saying is true they would surely know that people are going to see game footage before it is released. Even if that is the main selling point what does that have to do with the animations and physics being complete shit? There is no excuse for being this incompetent making a AAA title.
Julian Wright
Nice bait.
Justin Martin
Yes, I'm sure that's what they told you.
Camden Richardson
Yes, they are assholes for expecting stagnation. As a mafia fan since 1, I am very happy about the setting and hope it does well to trigger you harder and further fuck with your delusions

That would be great if he cuts the heart out of the local mob, and still ends up as a body in a river at the end of the game

b-b-but you killed the guy from Mafia 1 in Mafia 2 maybe it's like that
Too bad he's confirmed lieutenant tier.
The real problem with this game isn't they couldn't call it Nigger 1 and release it as is instead of killing the Mafia franchise.
Jayden Richardson
Thats the best you can do? I showed you why the game might be good, can you not just accept the fact that this game could be good?

Oh, so if I was playing as the mafia in Mafia III then it would be stagnation, but now that I'm a black character it's not.
That really speaks volumes about the gameplay of this game. Who the fuck hired you?
preordered Mafia 3 already so I can take on the establishment not just in gaming but to bring justice to gaming. The hateful division in gaming must end so do your part and preorder Mafia 3 today!
Xavier Baker
>mafia 3 thread >guy talking about easy allies is here EVERY TIME YOU SHILL FUCK KYS
Christian Moore
>I showed you why the game might be good No, you told me about the plot. I think we've seen enough gameplay to know that this game is not going to be good.
Lincoln Reed
>But is does finish mafia 2's storyline
Just because Vito is in it? That just seems like a lame hook to get fans of 2 to buy it. Much like how they showed Tommy in some trailers for 2.
Blake Gutierrez
That they are, though that would imply anyone has low enough standards to buy Mafia 3
Xavier Young
well then fuck you, your just a racist and people cant talk to you if you cant do it without coming off like a nazi goose stepping all over the rights of minorities.
Austin Foster
>everybody who is racist is also nazi
Ethan Lee
Clearly someone hired me, as your opinion is law and everyone must obey it. Are you even old enough to have played mafia 1 when it came out?
I much prefer a unique story over yet another rehash of Goodfellas
And yes, because obviously if you weren't black the entire story wouldn't make sense
Caleb Gray
...
Austin Morris
>if you hate a game you are a racist and a nazi You can't make this shit up
Caleb Stewart
Devs have said themselves that they will reveal what happend to joe, and they already said how vito ended up in new orleans. You've seen webms of the physics and AI being buggy, have you seen the Underboss system which lets you kill main characters in the story? Like I have said before, Mafia is not known for its gameplay, but for its Story. Why do you think all the trailers are for the story?
Juan Davis
I used to like EZA, but I can't stand them or their fans anymore.
Camden James
>I much prefer a unique story over yet another rehash of Goodfellas personally im sick of the white male fantasy stories of the italian mafia and welcome seeing a protagonist who is a POC. Games are meant to promote diversity and sadly many racists are ignoring this game not because of how great it is but because of the black character which is really what sells the game as the devs said.
William Diaz
If it was a true continuation then I'd be able to play as Vito or Joe, not some other person who isn't even part of the mafia.
Easton Green
>mafia is not known for it's gameplay fuck off shill, mafia was fucking amazing when it was released, the driving and physics were well before its time.
Grayson Nguyen
Lol guys aren't people so silly for saying we are racists for not liking this game
Now let me tell you niggers about how a nigger game made by niggers for niggers has no place in a white man's hobby
Noah Clark
uhh are you retarded if its a continuation of the originals we would be in the mafia, not some random person not in the mafia or as a cop who infiltrates the mafia another lame cliche.
Logan Reed
>Mafia is not known for its gameplay, but for its Story.
Oh fuck off, the gunplay, driving, and physics in Mafia were ahead of it's time. Even more-so than GTA 3.
Adam Sullivan
He is entirely rihgt. Please kill yourself
Wyatt Price
Isnt PoC used by KKK when talking about black people? Why is it okay now?
Robert Evans
>Mafia is not known for its gameplay
Tyler Hall
Stop being a shitlord, telling people to kill themselves is not very PC of you.
Isaiah Lee
So this is the power of AAA games...
Julian Lopez
>rihgt
You first.
Isaiah Williams
Looks like Barrett Where's his gun arm?
Connor Wright
He is apart of the black mafia and then makes his own mafia. Never said the gameplay was bad for mafia 1 or 2, I just said it was not the greatest. Mafia 1 and 2 had great driving and physics, mostly in mafia 2 where if you crashed, you would die. Mafia 3 is the same thing. In mafia 3, they changed the driving because of the era. The 60's was the muscle car era, so they made the driving heavier. Seatbelts were implemented around this time so crashing would no kill people, hints why the collision is arcadey.
Julian Scott
Is there a single Ubisoft game that isn't open world at this point? Fuck if they ever make another Rayman game I guarantee it will be open world as well.
David Evans
But it isn't. It's a cover shoot with annoying driving. Only the setting and story is worth it. I say this with mafia 1 in my top 10 games
Adam Long
>they changed the driving because of the era. The 60's was the muscle car era, so they made the driving heavier. Seatbelts were implemented around this time so crashing would no kill people, hints why the collision is arcadey. Its a featuureeeeee
Luke Sullivan
>Chucks a grenade into a room with white supremacists and a black guy bound and kneeling about to be executed by the white supremacists. >Throw the grenade literally right behind the black guy kneeling
That's some fucking Spetnaz tier strategy right there.
Jaxson Turner
>fake guns
This is the biggest issue with this game.
Connor Richardson
>black mafia
Then why isn't this game a spin-off called Black Mafia instead of Mafia 3?
Your damage control is fucking pathetic, and you have no idea what made Mafia great. None.
Dominic Hughes
rumors are their making a rayman FPS from the pre alpha footage shown. looks pretty baws to finally get a modern version of rayman not that shitty side view stuff from the 70's
Brody Jackson
Why would I care?
Kevin Wilson
Thats just based of trailers and what they have said, for all I know they could of just done it because they wanted too.
Bentley Rogers
>in my top 10 games
Shut the fuck up.
Joseph Williams
Because most people actually aren't autistically racist and don't mind the REEeEEEEEE NIGGERS

Easton White
>Never said the gameplay was bad for mafia 1 or 2, I just said it was not the greatest But you're wrong, for 2002 the gameplay was fucking great, especially considering the only thing you could compare it to was GTA 3.
If you watch the videos of mafia 3 all you see is shit gunplay and shit ai on top of shit everything else, if it managed to not fuck up one aspect of gameplay it isn't worthy of applause.
Daniel Thompson
Mafia is a broad term. It describes any organised group involving crime, the black mafia fits in the group. Same with the Irish mafia and the Russian mafia.
Andrew Cooper
so does this happens because doors in the 60s were heavier and guns were shittier or did they want this to happen
Gavin Jenkins
Make me, bitch
You weren't even in primary school when the series started
Eli Jackson
Yes.
Big budget companies don't care about their game quality because they know just putting HALO: X, or Assassins Creed: XYZ will still sell a trillion copies.
Small budget companies are either too retarded to understand how to improve on a good concept (Dead by Daylight), or they release one game that gets really popular and then shit the bed on every other game (Undertale). And even UT is just a hit or miss.
Companies like Blizzard perpetuate the idea that their fanbase is so loyal they can do whatever they want. There were multiple daily threads for Legion months before it came out, and surprise it was garbage, just like the last four expansions. And tons of retards still bought it. Then they release a game like OW which gets a massive amount of press coverage, streamer hype, etc, and turns out to be extremely shallow. You can like OW if you want, but it's not a good game, and will be dead in two years.
There are barely any companies anymore that desire to make genuinely good games, and those developers are either underfunded or rushed by their mother company and end up shitting out some piece of shit. They don't care about the longevity of Vidya, they care about selling as many copies as possible.
Like honestly, look at the 2015 GOTYs. Two great games, a retarded WII-U exclusive, an unfinished game with 0 replay value, and fucking Fallout 4 which was the biggest disappointment since forever. When only two good games are on the list for BEST GAME OF THE FUCKING YEAR, theres a problem
Blake Foster
>It's a "shill talks Mafia down but claims it's still one of his favorite games, just to make Mafia 3 look good" episode
I wouldn't be surprised if this guy with the darkness pictures was a 2K employee, they've been damage controlling this game hardcore on social media. I guess they really need it to succeed after Blunderborn.
Samuel Martinez
Especially the Nigerian Mafia.
Zachary Jenkins
But this looks arcadey even compared to other contemporary sandbox games, and it looks like yet another "Me too!" game
Eli Jackson
to tl;dr that.
At one point Videogames were considered to have been down the road for becoming an art form, and thats what made them great.
Now vidya is all about the money
Ian Brown
I was 19 going on 20 when Mafia was released. You have no idea how much Mafia pushed vidya forward. It did even more than GTA 3 did.
Jordan Torres
games have bugs, nothing new. I do think they should delay the game and work these problems out, but im not Hanger 13 or 2k. Like I said before, STORY and SETTING is mafia's strengths. The developers also fixed the "dead city" problem from mafia 2 by making the city apart of the gameplay.
Nathaniel Lopez
If they fixed it why is it still so bad
Isaac Nelson
I really wonder how much Battleborn costed to develop when it died in 3 weeks, because I dont ever think they've been this desperate before
Parker Walker
This is gonna be Watch Dogs all over again just without two years of people being hyped up
William Thomas
Darkness guy here, Ive played both mafia 1 and 2. Ive seen what mafia 3 has to offer and I think it will be good. Do I think mafia 3 will be better than mafia 1 or 2? no, but the game is not trying to be better, its trying to be different[hints why you are trying to DESTROY the Italian mafia rather than work with them]
Christopher Harris
>games have bugs, nothing new. I do think they should delay the game and work these problems out, but im not Hanger 13 or 2k. But what's shown aren't bugs, unless you mean the entire game is supposed to be one big bug.
Playing on your strengths is worthless when the rest of your product is shit, just look at Witcher 3, their strength is the setting and environment, so that's what they focused on, but they still managed to deliver at least average quality in every other aspect and that's why witcher 3 did well.
Dominic Allen
I saw it on sale for $20 at my local JB-Hifi mere weeks after it's release. Not used either. Brand new copies.
Okay 2K shill, nice to know.
Anthony James
Destroy them? Where's the fun in that? I wanna be an Italian mafioso not kill them all. If I wanted to be a black thug I would play San Andreas.
Camden Gomez
>bugs
Again, shitty AI, physics, gunplay, batman vision, and shitty driving are not bugs.
This is a bug.
Ryan Perez
Im really excited for a return to the Mafia series and getting in on the action of being the hero who doesnt just fight for themself but for equality.
Jeremiah Perry
The Witcher 3 has problems. Mafia 3 also has problems, those problems being the AI and physics. Those two things are the only bad things[from what I have seen]
Ayden Phillips
Well, good. Maybe now Gearbox can die faster and the rights to Duke Nukem can go to someone else.
Jacob Brooks
>game is called Mafia >you're not in the Mafia but you want to destroy them
Sounds like the game shouldn't have been called Mafia. Sounds like false advertising.
It's like remaking Shaft and calling it Goodfellas.
Xavier Parker
I agree fellow anonymous poster! Finally a game where I can be one of the heros that helped bring more equality to blacks from their white oppressors.
Oliver Miller
theres the driving and the dead city and the gunplay and the xray vision and the story
Justin Garcia
Also hyped for Mafia 3, just sent a tweet over social media to get the word out on Mafia 3 and that Im not going to get left in the digital dust when it comes out.
Jackson Hall
Oh and the teleporting cops and the car damage and the teleporting execution
Kayden Cox
It's beyond me how people still play videogames now a days.
The most talked game right now is the remake of Dragon Quest VII. That says it all and It will only get worst because they want to force 4K meaning games will take even longer to be made.
I went full retro last and stopped buying new releases unless they are from series I can't avoid like Final Fantasy or Zelda.
Ryan Davis
Its a fresh take on the series, mafia 1 and 2 are perfect for people who want to be in the Italian mafia, but mafia 3 is not trying to be one or two. "batman vision" is not in the game. You have to tap the phones of the city to see though walls[yes this is kinda stupid , but it does make stealthing easier] Gunplay looks fine, these are old guns with recoil. You are in a mafia who is going against the Italian mafia, the game is based around mafia's.
Isaac Harris
State of decay 2 is literally the only game I still have hope for. Titanfall let me down with the beta. Battlefield let me down with the beta. Dead rising 4 looks like garbage but will play when its cheap.
Easton Hughes
But that's a problem, if you can't fix your problems (which is obvious they can't even mitigate) then you have to deliver top-tier quality in other aspects, and so far the story doesn't seem to be top tier or even unique.
Evan Mitchell
I don't think you'll have to worry about getting left in the dust when nobody will pay attention to begin with. People seem to care more on a CoD4 port, Battlefield 1, and Watch Dogs 2
Luke Garcia
>"batman vision" is not in the game >but here's how it is
please stop
Dylan Ramirez
>mafia 3 is not trying to be mafia why call it mafia then? Oh that's right because if it wouldn't be called that it would have generated absolutely 0 attention and sales.
Adrian Watson
Its a pretty looking game
Connor Ward
>Xbox makes bro dude crap >sony makes cinematic shit >japanese devs only make cringe weeb trash >nintendo abandoned console gaming >normies are the majority now
Hmmm no wonder why.
Justin Morgan
The story is a fresh take on the mafia franchise. In mafia 1 and 2 , you play as a guy in the Italian mafia working up the ranks and eventually finding out that the Italian mafia arent that great. That is why Vito is back in mafia 3, he has seen what the Italian mafia is like. In a way, you are getting revenge on the same mafia that has fucked you over the past 2 games.
Hunter Bailey
What I meant was, Mafia 3 is not trying to be mafia 1 or 2 STORY wise. Thats why you play AGAINST the Italian mafia. Hanger 13 knew that they could never capture the spirit of mafia 1, so they changed the story to be the opposite of mafia 1 and 2.
Ian Clark
Fresh take on something does not necessarily mean good. And the mafia has only fucked you over because you fucked them over first you stpid fag.
Charles Gray
at the end of mafia 2, you get fucked over. Also, different does not mean good, but that does not mean it will be bad. Just have to wait till the game is out to truly see if the game is good or bad.
Jayden Scott
Well everything so far points to it being shit, and the only thing going for your argument is that the story will somehow be so amazing that it will offset the shit gameplay shown so far.
Jayden Nelson
>Duke as politically correct parody of himself >or genderswapped into "Dutchess" Nukem in an attempt to be subversive Joss Whedon-y shits >with tortured Gearbox dialogue >and a grating CRAZY AND RANDOM sidekick voiced by Ashley Burch
Please die swiftly, Gearbox.
Hudson Williams
your just saying the game will be bad because your a racist.
