Haha nice one dude,You will love it!

Btw they have already released a patch for the PS3/360 version....nice to see they are on the ball :)

PS3 AND 360 PATCH NOTES
- Fix of possible endless loading after retry in mission eight
- Fix of endless loading if user picks up a Playboy before the cut scene in mission five is triggered.
- Fix of issue that made user able to be shot through some objects and walls.
- Fix of issue where SFX does not play when browsing through various menus.
- A number of minor cosmetic and localization issues were also addressed with this patch.

Ive noticed a few bugs on the pc version too,..nothing major,Hopefully they will get patched though.

i know, that was a lot of screenshots. but i don't think i have ever enjoyed taking them as much as i do with this game (except maybe ac2).

the gameplay (shooting, meetings, missions, etc.) really reminds me of Goodfellas, but the driving really reminds me of American Graffiti :p

Awesome shots......Dunno if ive already said this but do you also think this game looks really nice considering its only DX9?

I wonder why they didn't take advantage of DX10?

Ive not played any Mafia today...been busy working but will be playing some soon!

if you hadn't said that i don't know that i would've ever guessed it was dx9 :eek: i think vito's face is absolutely amazing. the detail really looks great even close up. his scar is pretty sweet :p i was actually thinking about how great the game looks yesterday and how much better it looks than games made last year or earlier...

i wonder what they could've done with dx10 or even dx11

Yeah i was shocked because i thought it was DX10...but when you look on the recommended specs on the back of the case it says (DX9 Compliant card)...no mention of DX10 or 11...and i read it was confirmed to be DX9 only.

They must have spend quite a long time on planning and designing this game ,Im shocked at the amount of people whining on the 2K forums saying the game is a fail....
Dont know whats wrong with them!

Unbelievable I thought Mafia II was direct x 10 for sure but a quick check of wikipedia said direct x 9.0c. I looked at the game earlier today not sure if i am going to pick it up yet maybe i will shop around as I have heard you can get it cheaper than $99 Aud.

Should have pre-ordered Hsv_Man :)

I got my copy for £31 delivered from Amazon on release date...i could have got it for £27.99 but that company (GAME) was not accepting my card for some odd reason.

Some more recent shots:

EDIT: just finished the campaign. cool story and interesting ending. spoiler*********** -> do you think joe is actually dead now? we never heard a gunshot (which i was expecting). either way, it could possibly lead to a sequel :D

You guys are making me jealous the game costs $79.99 USD here on steam :(

Probably gunna buy a buy cheap copy from india on ebay or something for like $30 and get express shipping and activate it on steam.

Mafia II is DX9 because of how long its been in development;)

I'm up to chapter 8 in the campaign.

hey didn't know you were playing it. how do you like it thus far?

EDIT: please note that the following is my reflection on the game. if you aren't done, probably shouldn't read it. if you absolutely loved the game and don't want me to ruin it, probably shouldn't read it.

now that the initial infatuation i had has mostly worn off and i have finished the game, i am saddened by what the developers could've done but didn't. this could've been the best sandbox game OF ALL TIME. it would've knocked gta on its back and given the finishing punch in a lackadaisical manner. but the open world is really limited to one damn mission at a time, all being mandatory and inevitable, and there really isn't much to do (more than once) outside of those missions. pissing off cops and running away can only last for so long... the story could've been Goodfellas+The Godfather times about 100. don't get me wrong, i liked it while it lasted. as a linear game, it is pretty cool. but i just am saddened by the potential it had compared to the final product. i guess i'll have to spend some time getting the playboy magazines...
