thanks for watching! just a quick look because the release surprised us yesterday. Check back later in the week for full videos on MANEATER, Saints Row 3 remastered, and probably more!

I wish they’d remaster the old godfather games. I remember loving those

SCARFACE: THE WORLD IS YOURS NEEDS A REMASTER!

Just got this since it’s on sale for 10 bucks on the Xbox store and I love it. I played it with my dad when I was younger and he always had to do that stamp part where you sell them and I could never do it. He passed a year ago and last night I had a cry cause I completed it first try without his help. I think he’d be proud.

Mafia 2 and LA Noire. Two of my favorites. Both set in the mid-late 1940's both are great games.

This hurts more than pouring a grain of salt on a open wound.

I'm only excited for mafia 1, because it's a complete remake.

I just have to say, anyone who hasn't played Mafia 2 needs to go change that, be it now or wating for the Mafia 1 Remake to drop first. Don't let this slightly disappointing upgrade to the game fool you out of getting it. This game is a masterpiece, an experience, whatever you do do not miss it!

They should've remade mafia 2 as well, sure it would've taken longer, but it would've been recieved better.

Madia II's ending still slaughters me emotionally

I love the gangster era there needs to be wayyyyy more games like this!

Sorry kid, 60 fps wasn't part of our deal.

Mafia 2 always brings back a flood of memories of growing up in Old Chicago. The architecture of the buildings in Old Chicago was very similar to that of buildings in New York, at least as presented in Mafia 2.

Remember when the jackets and coats used to move doe...

I dumped so many hours in this as a kid and I remember turning 14 and my mom was excited to tell me I could finally play it not knowing I had secretly downloaded it years before

I wish they remastered the max payne trilogy

The one I'll be looking forward to the most is Mafia 1 Definitive Edition. Now THAT will feel like a true remake.

Mafia 2 was easily one of the best games I've ever played

Loved it in 2010. Was 23 years old spent cold winter snowy nights playing it, so it was cozy inside playing that with the weather being like that in game too.

They should’ve taken their time and released this for next gen

“Significant flaw, especially if you’re playing on pc.” PC Players: Right..... **Goes back to play Mafia 2 Friends For Life mod with restored cut contents and graphical enhancement.**

Who here actually stacked all the boxes on their first work day?

I love the original version of the Game I can replay it many times and never get bored. The story, characters, and the missions are what makes the game for me it’s a true masterpiece I want to pick up the remaster to just play it again with better graphics and detail. It’s a true masterpiece of a game. I played it all in two days meaning I sat in my ass for 3 hours 30 minutes a day having one of the best experiences of my life.

Since he's mostly talking about the PC version, here's my notes from the PS4 version. Framerate issues: Just driving through traffic lowers the framerate considerably to aggravating lows. Collision not loading on the ground: I can't even finish Chapter 3 since one of the checkpoints is on a spot of land that won't load. I continously fall through the floor. 2K linking: The top right of the screen shows that my profile is linked, but won't go away, even in cutscenes.

Still waiting for the Scarface remaster/remake...

Can't wait for the mafia 1 remake never played it but heard it's good!

"The remaster is just a cash grab." *t H a T ' s H o W m A F i a W o R k S*

Have to agree that the "linear" game play in a open world environment really is refreshing. Epically after recently finishing AC Odyssey with all the DLC. I mean sometimes huge sandbox open world games are just too overwhelming at times.

It's nice to hear Jake giving the series some love. I feel like nobody ever talks about how good these games are.

Tbh it doesnt deserve the remaster title. Its just a new version.

I can't hide my hype with Mafia 1 remake, but looking how disappointing Mafia 3 is and also the let down of this definitive edition just worries me, especially since we are talking about 2K here, they made a lot of mess when publishing games recently..

We need Scarface The World Is Yours remastered ASAP 💯

I remember when remasters were actual remasters. I’ve entirely played Skyrim and Skyrim remastered and it’s literally Skyrim with a filter.

One of the smaller changes but one of my favorites is that some store fronts have interiors with people eating or shopping in them or barber shops with people getting their haircut.

I was pretty surprised when the definitive edition just appeared in my library

I'm currently playing the classic version of Mafia II on PC...and absolutely love the story and its linearity. The radio's music is amazing and the whole environment is such a mood. Especially the Shawshank references!

The name "Vittorio Antonio Scaletta" is enough to make me play this game once again lol

This is one of my favorite games still. It’s not a perfect game by any means but I had great fun with it. Mafia can be a bit of a letdown in some areas, but I’ve always enjoyed their stories

For me, when joe game me the money for Bruno the cut scene played twice and it gave me 3 times the money it was supposed to. Needless to say, I was loaded for a good while

I literally went back to Platinum MAFIA 2 on PS3 2 months ago 😂

I love this game so much. I had a ps3 and didn't have much money. So, I downloaded the demo for this game and I used to play it a lot. Just running away from cops for hours in a limited section of NY. And it was so much fun.

Super excited for Mafia 1 remake! I hope to see more Mafia vids from you guys in the future!

This is one of those games I completely fell in love with. I've come back to this game over and over again. I'm excited to install the definitive edition.

I would love to play all 3 Mafia games with RDR2's RAGE engine.

Joe's Pick up lines give them a try 😂 "Is that a mirror in your pocket cause I can see myself in your pants." "If I could rearrange the alphabet I'd put U and I together." "Hey baby that's a nice outfit would look good crumbled by my bed in the morning." "Do you know the difference between sex and conversation? No want to go back to my place and talk?" "Why don't we go back to my place and play house? You'll be the door and Il slam you!" The funniest character ever! Joe Barbarow!

One of the best game series ever, I’ve played through mafia III atleast 3 times and I’ve played through II atleast twice, can’t wait for the remaster of one and I didn’t know about this being released 🙂

Honestly I see a lot of people complain but I really enjoy going back and playing a game I haven't touched in years. The story still has me playing it like it was just released and yes their is some bugs/glitches but im sure only time will fix those the game just came out this week...

PS4 has massive frame rate issues, dropping into the 10s every 15 seconds or so. Also for some reason all cutscene audio only plays on my left headphone, its a shame because i love the original game

I remember playing it on the 360 years ago I loved the speed limit system on it it’s weird but I kinda wish more games had it instead of just going fast as possible mafia 2 did it right then

The game is full of glitches and a lot of lagg. I can't finish chapter 15 because I can't drive to the observatory because if I go near it I fall through the map.

Eh, a minor correction: the game isn't initially post-WW2. it's _during_ WW2, Vito gets sent home temporarily on medical leave and Joe pulls strings to have him be medically discharged with honors, thereby ending his military service early. It only becomes post-war when the game jumps to 1951.

Already bought the trilogy, but man they need to patch the Audio only coming out temhe left speaker. Such a huge oversight. Back when there were game testing phasing, stuff like this never happened back in the day.

I miss the days of "Pizza's on me"

Welcome back to Before You Delete Stuff To Make Space For Monthly Free Games

Here cause its november ps plus, Never played them, so i will be for freeeee

I can't wait to get my hands on Mafia 1 remastered.

Thanks Jake! I loved Mafia 2 as a kid and without you I wouldnt have known it came out again.

For anyone playing this on PS4 Pro and experiencing frame drops, try turning off boost mode in the settings. I think I found that helps keep the frame rate more stable but it definitely does not fix it.

Thank you Gameranx for everything you do, you are by far my favourite KZfaq channel.

Its just a port of the same 2010 version

I don't think I've ever watched a video this soon after being uploaded, you guys are the best love you and falcon. Also both of your views and opinions on games are always pretty spot fucking on.

One of my favorite things about mafia 2 is that you can legit play through the whole game without needing to spend any money so long as you’re fast enough to rob each store and steal the stuff they have available. Only things I ever paid for was vehicle upgrades and weapons from Henry

And now it’s free on ps so it’s definitely worth it cost nothing for a good story

Mafia 2 is a really great game. The definitive edition is a huge let down with tons of missed potential.

Damn, I'm so hyped for the Mafia 1 remake. Never played it before, loved Mafia 2 and Mafia 3 wasn't that bad either. Hell, I'm even more hyped for Mafia 1 than for Cyberpunk or The Last of Us Part II or the new console generation...

Mafia was a real big game that everyone slept on i know people who never played horizon zero dawn i don't know how people miss theses games

Thanks for the review Gameranx. I played the first one years ago but never finished it. I finished the second one and enjoyed it. I rented the 3rd one to check it out. It was alright. Looking forward to the remaster of the first one. Looking to finally finishing it.

You know Jake means it when he goes “Straight up” 👌🏼

I feel like these “remasters” are literally just cash grabs

I remember playing this game on 360. AMAZING!

I thought they would remaster it with the trailers graphics ' those insane graphics were too good to be true ... sucks

anyone else get this when it was free on PSN Malaysian store for a few hours

I loved this game and played it the most when I got my ps3 originally for Christmas in 2013 I got the game with my console and literally played nothing but mafia! Great game now even 12 almost 13 yrs later it’s still a game worth playing even without the remaster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They surely could have done more, but I’m just happy they brought the game back on Current Gen Consoles

I wish it got a full remake as Mafia 2 is a phenomenal game

Even with its faults still one of the best games for it's time

You guys should do a before you buy on state of decay 2 juggernaut edition since it is its 2 year anniversary and a lot has changed

I would love to pick this up on my xbox but I bought this game a year ago with all of the dlc. I'm not spending another 30 dollars. I wish the console players got the same deal that the PC players get and just get the updated version if you already own the original.

I remember getting this on xbox live for free one month. Never thought I’d enjoy it as much as did. In my Top 5 favorite games of all time.

I’ve been playing this game on and off since yesterday on an original Xbox one and it’s been fine apart from the Cops on the jewellery store mission getting stuck in the stairway when you’re trying to escape, would of loved them to clean up the shooting mechanics a little bit otherwise I’d say it’s a solid upgrade to the original, I forgot how amazing the game actually is!

2:39, he proved a point

I’m playing it on the PS4 and everytime i get into a cutscene there is only sound on the left ear. Anybody else have this problem?

What would have been cool if they added some of the cut content for the open world aspect.

Glad to see a video straight to the point and not a 10 minutes video wasting your time

Already bought it still watching it tho :)

This game doesnt need any remaster, graphics has aged quite well. Im looking forward first Mafia remaster.

I watched the video loved the game, loved ur pros and cons, bought the game so worth 10$, and subscribed, keep up the good work! you have a massive influence in what games players buy and dont buy, all because you rate them perfectly!

Did love this game!!!! But my bet is they wanted it out now! I still want a mafia game that allows you to start out young and work your way up to the top, with a GTA style world. This is the closest we have got so far...

I boght the trilogy bundle and after playing the full Mafia 1 remaster this was a huge disappointment

“You shot like my sister”

I played these on my 3Dvision monitor back in the day and loved them.

0:42 no don’t you just walk , go say hi to the buffet he will recognize you

when I want to buy it, it shocked me that it's already on my library

Just bought Mafia 1 Definitive Edition, and fell in love with the beauty of it. I thought 2 would be given the same treatment :/

Man mafia 1 remake was so good it left a hole in my heart after I beat it. I'm probably gonna play it again but also I'll probably get this one. I loved the original game when I played it on ps3 so I'll most likely love it just the same

i already had the original installed on my machine, its one of my favorites, so ill just keep that one instead. it is really nice that i have the new one free though, i appreciate moves like that.

Who else is because of the free ps plus month 🙋🏻‍♂️

I loved Mafia II when it came out, great story. Even tho III was a letdown, it’s got some fantastic dialogue

Why does the grass stick through Tommy's face when he's on the ground 😂

I bought this in a steam sale back in the day but never played it. Thanks, I’ll check it out!
