Ever wanted to be in "the family" and named Vito? Well then your in luck! Vito is a downtrodden guy who has day dreams of escaping his life of poverty that rules his childhood. Lusting after wealth and a position of power, Vito realises crime is his best chance at obtaining his goals.
While the basic story is similar to most novels and classic mafia movies, Vito moves up the ranks from his petty criminal activites to some serious violations of the law. All this is in order to lock in his status as a 'Made Man'. While this appears a glamourous lifestyle, the story shows the down sides to a life of crime.
The environment that has been created for this game transports you back to the 40's and 50's in America. Nevermind that Empire Bay is a completely fictional city, the detail in the environment is impressive. The missions dictate the time of day and weather which enhances the flow of the game.
Mafia II is an open world game and it has some eye opening gunfights and vehicle based exploration. Sometimes things don't go as planned and revenge missions ensue. Lets not forget that you can damage the fantastic enviroments as you travel through the missions. This is an impressive game with loads of detail thrown in.
While you have a great range of weapons at your disposal, you will need to attack with some stategy as Vito can not take many hits. Your enemies also drop with the same amount of punishment. The combat isn't ground breaking, but you have to master the balance of fragility and power. The exciting part for me was the fact that your enemies will seek cover and your alies will not stand in your way!
The mean streets of Empire Bay really come to life in this game. Solid combat and a city that lives around you as you travel through it, leaves you feeling like you are taking control of Empire Bay.
