GamesCom: Exclusive interview about Mafia II

PS3Life had the opportunity to have an interview with Jarek Kolár, senior gameplay producer of Mafia II. For the occasion, I've written the interview completely in English (without any translators etc). So please, feel free to check it out!

I was very excited for this game. I loved the first one. But sadly after playing demo on my PS3 I wont be getting this one. I do not like technically inefficient games.

comp_ali5412d ago (Edited 5412d ago )

Have you tried the PC demo. I played it and it is too good.

@bashesh
I tyotally agree with you.
I loved the 1st one, the detail, the control and gameplay were all amazing.
This one is quite terrible, i mean its as if they have tried to mix GTA IV with the old mafia and stick it in a wrong timeframe.
The game engine sucks so bad, I have to toggle free aiming and aiming down sight, rather than just pressing left trigger and holding it to keep aiming.
Its a terrible game.
I will not be buying this game, the demo was complete crap.

Bioshock still looks fantastic, one of my all time favorites.

Yui_Suzumiya870d ago

Beyond: Two Souls on PS3 can compete with modern day graphics.

SonyStyled870d ago (Edited 870d ago )

Same as Killzone 2 and 3, uncharted 2 and 3, Infamous 2, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3

jasonismoney870d ago

I wish this was entirely true, but you might want to load up Killzone 2 and Resistance 3 again.

SonyStyled870d ago

@jason I watched some gameplay videos of KZ2 and R3 on my full screen. They are on par or succeed graphically to the first person shooters mentioned in the article that also launched on the seventh generation of consoles. Try the same and see what you think

cthulhucultist869d ago

Killzone 3 was super impressive! I could not believe the graphics back then as I was regularly pausing the game to stand in awe looking at the surroundings! Resistance however did not impress me that much. Heavy rain is also another amazing graphically speaking game. It almost felt next gen

Fist4achin870d ago

I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.

SonyStyled870d ago

They did for their day. I recently played gears judgement with on the 360 and the draw distance was so blurry. The characters up close look great though

JEECE870d ago

Far Cry 2 was awesome. In addition to having demonstrably better physics and AI than later games in the series, it had a lot of design decisions that, criticized at the time, have since been praised in games like BOTW and Dark Souls.

iNcRiMiNaTi870d ago

It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good

JEECE870d ago

In terms of art style it still holds up.
