I dont really trust GI since they are owned by Gamestop.

It seems GI will inflate some ratings based on a resale value. Giving a good but short game a 9 ensures they will get lots of trade ins.

I could see your point if this was a 6 hr campaign.. but 15 hrs hardly qualifies as a "short but good game".

Regardless what the reviews are saying, I'm having a blast - that's all that matters to me.

I agree, compared to games being released nowadays 15 hours is not short.

Gamespot Review - 8.5

Mafia II is an excellent return of a franchise with great promise. Vito and his associates are memorable characters in a city bursting with subtle visual details and violent undertones. The story pulls no punches, neither glorifying nor demeaning the difficult lives its protagonists lead--just presenting them with brutal honesty and letting you reach your own conclusions. After the 15-or-so hours it might take you to gun through Vito's story, it's hard not to come away with the sense that there should have been more to do in this beautiful city. Yet while you might be disappointed with what Mafia II doesn't do, it's hard to be disappointed by what this excellent game does do: deliver fun shoot-outs and pockets of shocking brutality in a world you're delighted to be a part of.

Re: Mafia II (PS3/360)

Got this in from amazon with the $20 off game credit for madden. Can't wait to play after dinner.

Re: Mafia II (PS3/360)

Yeah, I need some impressions. I'm going to GameStop today after work to either pick it up or use the credit on Madden.

It's pretty good so far. Don't look at it as a huge open world game and you'll like it just fine. I just finished chapter 2. The characters are good and i like where the story is going.
