Massive Bear Studios writes: There’s nothing quite like waking up to an inbox full of angry emails about game features! Having been in this industry for 10 years, I wish I could say it’s the first time, and I’m definitely sure it won’t be the last! We’ve had emails asking about Mafia II PS3 before, but never this many, all almost identical. Some were actually quite polite (thanks Stacie)!
One of the emails actually had a hint as to what they were all talking about, so eventually I found my way here:

That’s right folks. That’s the press, and that’s our name. Yay?
Anyway, to anyone who may find their way here via that (and a couple of other) sites, let’s clarify.
2k made it. We helped. We did not ‘port’ the game.
PAX EAST has officially confirmed that Blizzard and 2K Games are amongst the bigger names attending the show. This would be two of the bigger names to return to live U.S. shows since the Covid Pandemic.
Good to hear. Past couple of years the show floor is getting smaller & smaller, with more space everywhere. Food truck trucks made their way on to the expo hall floor last year. Haven't seen that since 2012.
Shaz from Pixel Swish: "The Mafia games have always excelled in storytelling and voice acting. Though Mafia 3 faltered in some gameplay aspects, its story and, particularly, voice acting are tremendous."
Mafia III had a great narrative and some truly incredible performances. The gameplay loop had its issues but the story, acting, world and atmosphere don't get nearly enough credit.
First few hours: "This game is incredible!"
Hour 10: "Wait, that's it? I'm going to be doing the same thing over and over for the rest of the game??"
As of November 25, the 2K launcher is no longer required in any 2K published games on either Steam of Epic Games Store.
Much like Bethesda’s & Paradox’s, I never understood even the notion that these launchers should be required. Even from their own business perspective I could never even imagine someone purchasing a game through them and not being recognised as a hinderance more than anything else.
Devs are literally ganging up on themselves trying to lay blame for yet another crap multiplat game.
Don't worry fella's you are not alone when it comes to a crappy port on the PS3.
You are just ALL lazy!! LOL Yeah, that has to be it!
And this is why I own the 360 and the PS3.
It's not a bad port.
Yeah its such a shame I was only planning on buying the game for the grass......................... ............................... ......../sarcasm
If you cant do something right, do it until you can.
This is pure laziness.
