Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven is probably the greatest mob themed game of all time. The game's story and atmosphere is just incredible. Very fun but at the same time quite tricky with the controls, even on keyboard. Nonetheless it is very pleasing to play; great music and world design even if it feels a bit empty. Of course the best element from this game is it's campaign, Tommy Angelo is just a fantastic character. Yes, the voice acting could have been a bit better but the music makes up for it. 
Only discovered this game in 2020. Played it = watched the movie. The director's work on the staging of the cutscenes is top notch. The suspense that endures immerses you in the story. I got high on the «Ordinary Routine» mission when started playing the track «Mafia - Fighting Theme 1». The game is beautiful.

P.S.
Very nice voice acting. Especially the monologue in the ending.

Mafia is simply a legendary Kay. A bit difficult, but the story, the ambiance, the impression of being mafieu is absolutely surpassing the two suites. A game to possess.

How to say, even in 2018 this game remains a reference and a masterpiece from a point of view of the totally avant-garde gameplay, of the cinematics worked and searched despite the technical limitations of the time, a scenario hallbeing and well-crafted. I still remember playing it on my Pentium IV, so many emotions. These 9.99 e are worth the longing without a moment of hesitation. I hope the devs can see how much their work is still recognized, almost 20 years later < 3

What a joy to come back to this mythical game. The game has taken a shot of old-fashioned graphics but the storyline and story are simply awesome. The characters are endeant and the gameplay neat. I have nevertheless encountered some script-launching bug that does not start and so you have to go back to the previous checkpoint. But otherwise this game is still very good. It takes about 15h to finish the campaign with the ancillary missions. The free game mode (akin to a GTA like) is useless in my opinion.

I'm disappointed not to recommend this game, I was delighted to see it on steam, and I was super happy to be able to redo this excellent classic, but in fact a large part of the music is absent... Just launch a free circulation to realize it, it's absolute silence... The game loses much of its interest without its music. I am dissapointed not to recommend this game, because I was excited to see it on steam, and I was really happy to play this really good-old videogame, however it misses a lot of the original songs that was in the game... You just have to launch a free ride to see this, it's a complete silence... The game loses a big pinch of its salt without the original songs.

2002, there are few games as good as this one for the year. Frankly everything is there, the graphics, for the time a revolution ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ must be said. The scenario is gorgeous and Super believable although the end is sad, the cars then there I was downright shocked, the towers account and the gearbox, I had never seen this in a game of this type, just huge. The game is hard, frankly hard but doable, you will definitely Rager but with a little courage it is feasible. I loved all the characters and the vocabulary of French dubbing made me very happy, really a pure pleasure. He foreshadowed crazy stuff for the sequel pity that the license only came out 3 games for now. My only regret is that it is in linear mode, if one day they make one in open world it's going to be a real killing.
