Pure PlayStation: It's 1968. You're a black man who has returned from fighting a nasty war that nobody wanted, and now you're back in your homeland being called all sorts of horribly racist names. Doesn't sound too nice, does it? Well, ladies and gents, that's the harsh reality of 60's America. Murder, drugs, racism, rape, rain, The Beatles. It was a downright nasty era.
More people should be making a trip to this bayou.
Agreed....game was fantastic. Especially as a person of color, I enjoyed the side missions.
The game looked interesting, and from the trailers it seemed it had a great soundtrack, but the buggy release (AI) and disappointing reviews made me pass on it. No idea if they ever fixed its shortcomings post-launch.
From VG247: "If you’ve been enjoying either Red Dead Redemption 2, GTA V, or Mafia: The Definitive Edition in VR thanks to some handy fan-made mods, we’ve got some bad news. Thanks to a DMCA claim by Take Two Interactive - the parent company of Rockstar Games and 2K - has led development on the most popular VR mods to grind to a halt.
This news comes via Luke Ross - the sole creator of a variety of VR mods for the aforementioned games - who released a lengthy post to his supporters. In it, he claims to have received a DMCA request from Take Two Interactive for his projects and that the company requested that he “remove all their copyrighted works from [his] Patreon page”. This was confirmed by Kotaku who reached out to Patreon directly."
I mean, if he was modding a game that someone else built, and charging for it on patreon - this seems pretty cut and dry for a DMCA.
If he was not profiting from it in any way though, would be nice to let companies let this shit slide more often
KeenGamer: "Mafia 3 has a huge cast of characters - good, bad, and both - but these 10 characters were the ones who stood out the most. With Mafia 3 set in the 1960's, these characters are influenced by the ever-changing times and the people surrounding them."
As I'm playing now I can agree with this score. That 5/10 was blasphemy.
Can't wait for my copy!
This game is pretty cool. It has character. The world seems alive and it helps draw you in that much more. If they can patch most of the technical problems soon this is a pretty solid title.
Loving it so far...4 hours in
You need to play it for more than a day to give it a thorough review.
