Yagmur from NoobFeed writes - Very recently, we had news from Hangar 13, which is the studio that brought us the Mafia trilogy, that the chief operating officer Matthew Urban and the head of the studio Haden Blackman were leaving the company. This is not big news on its own, the studios always change hands and heads. But according to the latest news, a new Mafia game is at work.
Adam Vale of The Koalition writes: Mafia: Trilogy definitely had a rather unorthodox launch back in July. The “Trilogy” only contained 2 of the 3 titles that being Mafia 2: Definitive Edition and Mafia 3: Definitive Edition. Mafia 1 which was advertised as receiving the full makeover treatment was delayed until late September. However, if you were unaware of this delay and just purchased the digital download, you may have been surprised to see no mention of the delayed Mafia 1 other than the fact it was missing.
A valuable collection overall and I'm curious to see where the devs take the franchise next.
The three games of the Mafia Trilogy have been extended, remastered, and remade into one bundle for the price of a regular game, but one of these things feels extremely lacking when played next to the other two.
The Mafia Remake may features motorbikes as additonal content, Hangar 13 suggest.
Really fast travel is what you're worried about you must be from this generation
3 games with no fast travel that made you drive the entire map to do missions like the game was made in 2003. Hell even San Andreas has cabs. That poor game design choice is one thing that has held this series back.its also common sense thanks.
It'll be cheaper for them and better for fans of the original if you GTFO instead. Easier too.
Don't worry I agree with you, I wouldn't say its a game breaker but modern mechanics like fast travel are a good thing.
Hopefully it runs better than mafia 2 definitive edition. Holy crap it’s the first game I have ever had to stop playing because of crashing.
I'm thinking (hoping) that they're pouring their heart and soul into the Mafia 1 remake then thought "oh shit we need to make some money" and just repackaged Mafia 2/3 all willy-nilly.
You could be right. I just hope they patch 2 because I got about half way through it and had to quit. The game looks good enough it’s just really buggy
I'm all for additional content if it fits the spirit of the original. Full disclosure, I've never actually played the original but I hope to experience it as fans of it did -- which is, as I understand it, slow and immersive. It's actually very rare to get this in a game these days. One instance I can remember this-gen is the RDR 2 prologue, which I thought was excellent.
Will be great to play an open world game devoid of the ubiquitous modern videogame tropes (inane side quests, collectibles, fast travel etc.).
They already said they're adding collectibles and I doubt it'll stop there
I played this in high school when it first came out. Even then it was a breath of fresh air. GTAIII had already been out for a year and was very arcadey. This was the polar opposite, at the time it felt like a game for adults and I loved every minute.
It's hard to believe it'll be a faithful remake when it's in Hangar 13's hands.
I'm currently playing the 3rd installment and enjoying it.
Admittedly, it was the free PSN version but liking it nonetheless.
As most here and on other blogs say that 2&3 were buggy and not as good as the 1st I'm actually super keen to try it out.
Yessir
Cool just dont put any woke bs in the game and we good
love the games. Liked part 3 until the game save froze into me dying over and over and there was no way to fix it.
😋😋
Can't wait, got a soft spot for the Mafia franchise, hope they can finally get the right balance for everything with this new one
