Sethos Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Mafia is one of my top 5 greatest games of all times, although my only real gripe with the game was the driving sequences. I really hated how you had to obey the speed limits constantly, at first it felt realistic and fun, but just got boring and annoying in the end. You did have the speed limiter, but driving around at 30 mph for 15 minutes is just ... bleh.

Brodel Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I tried Godfather after completing Mafia and got bored of it after about 20mins or so. Mafia is such a good game, it's a shame it didn't get more recognition at the time. There are a few new screenshots of Mafia II that were posted just the other day actually, looks amazing. http://games.tiscali.cz/news/news.asp?id=26917 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/page/2/#findComment-589321278 Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonunter Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 The realistic way of the play is the biggest adventage of Mafia over ALL other games of the same style. You almost never really have do drive by the rules...but sometimes i did it just for fun xD Mafia is the greatest game I have ever played Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/page/2/#findComment-589321286 Share on other sites More sharing options...

OblivionStalker Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Godfather -> Mafia? lol Godfather is probably one of the worst GTA-style games, if not the worst. In Mafia you can do much, much more than in Godfather. Also, is it realistic when you press the up and left key and the car just drives and drives in circles like it has been modified by aliens? :p The best feature in Godfather... while driving and nothing is in front of you, which the camera to some other angle, and then return it to the default state, you will hit a car... Why? Because EA thought that stupid thing is fun. Oh, and by the way, the name of the developer and publisher says all... Electronic Arts (As*). Got it? Tell me in which game you get busted for driving with more than 40 mph? :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/page/2/#findComment-589321997 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, does anyone knows where can I get some extra missions for Mafia while waiting for Mafia II ? Or something else that will make the game experience exciting as it once was again? :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/page/2/#findComment-589323625 Share on other sites More sharing options...
OblivionStalker Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 There is an unofficial Winter version, but I don't know if it adds new missions. You can find it at some torrent sites.

Lex224 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Mafia > Godfather To me, Godfather felt clumsy, in all aspects of the game including controls, graphics and story. I played through most of it then realised I wasn't having any fun at all. Mafia is one of the greatest games I've ever played and is, in my opinion very similar to GTA yet so much better. The Godfather just doens't compare! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/page/2/#findComment-589368654 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy0 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 After reading the Mafia II thread and now this one, I have got my hands on the original Mafia game to see what all the fuss is about! Can't wait to get started. ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/page/2/#findComment-589378514 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lingwo Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Soon as you hear the awesome main theme to the game, it will have you hooked. The story for the game cannot be matched.
