Mafia II - what do you guys think?

[JudgeDredd]

Just curious...do you guys get any weird graphic glitches at times like minor tearing?  Just put in a new r9 270x card and I see it within this game.  Have not seen it within any other game I play.

Nope. Have you got Vertical Sync on?

Loving GTA IV, and looking forward to downloading the police mod, its got me in the mood for some drive here, do that, go here, shoot them action and i figured Mafia II would be where its at

I loved the first one, first game ive completed in ages

wondering what you thought of II

It's absolutely superb. 120% well worth every penny of the full price. I've got 228 hours logged on it on Steam. I've completed the game 3 times (or was it 4!?)

There are a couple of dodgy parts - times when I think the devs went to sleep and one of their kids came in and created a mission - but apart from that - it was THE best game I've had...probably period. Well, not exactly - I'd put the original Mafia ahead of it - but it was a very close second.

Damnit, Dredd.

Oh well it's only $8

Sorry - but if you like a game with a story - then these two will flick your switch...I'm sure of it.

I would DEFINITELY recommend everyone playing the original first. For one, there's a link and for two, it was head and shoulders my fav of all time. It's EXTREMELY period...very, very immersive

It looks a bit dated now, but the voice acting and the characters are amazing.

Not sure...is that setting best on or off?

It's cpu/gpu intensive in so far as it makes sure the graphics don't tear, I think rendering the whole screen.

If you gpu can handle it, then it's definitely better on. I always put it on and if there's a slow down (not something I really experience on my new rig  ;D ) then I'd switch it off

I'll give it a shot, thanks for the info...liking the game so far and I actually think it based aged very well graphically.  Well worth it, just have to find more time to play. Before sniper elite 3 drops in a few days :)

Are you playing the first or the second?

I guess lucky me:)  it's odd that this is the only game doing it to me...maybe I'll try uninstalling and reinstalling after I play around with some graphic settings.  It mostly happens during transition from cut scenes to gameplay.

Its a good looking game. So far no graphical glitches.

Any mafia game that includes WW2 missions wins in my book

Think I might have fixed it...I was running a "beta" version of AMD drivers with my new card...went back to the last official release and so far no glitches.....fingers crossed...
