As expected, I finished off Mafia 2 today. Things were starting to get complicated for Vito in the first part, and today things spiraled just a bit out of control, dragging in everyone from the Chinese to the feds.
Overall it continued to be a pretty good play experience. There was only one point where some grinding for cash was needed, but that didn’t take very long. I upgraded one of the DLC cars for the achievement, but there wasn’t really any point where a fast car really seemed necessary, another symptom of how much wasted opportunity the game has by being so short. The irritating one-shot deaths continued right till the end, but fortunately checkpoints seemed to be much saner, except perhaps for one part of the observatory.
I’m sure there’ll be more DLC though, as there are already Steam achievements listed for more missions. And yes, I managed to get all of the Playboy magazines…
