Mafia 3 Reviews round-up
Mafia 3 is the third installment in the Mafia series developed by Hangar 13 and published by 2K Games. This soon-to-arrive package offers varied content for everyone in the Bordeux open world.
2K Games has successfully built a lot of hype around Mafia III with cinematic trailers and videos, thus, their fans were surprised with the decision not to send out Mafia III review copies before release. According to IGN and Polygon, representatives from 2K Games decided not to provide advance review copies to anyone.
The game will let you drive different cars around a city, gain control over districts, collect new weapons, learn more about main characters through main and side missions, find collectibles – mostly magazines and posters (including Playboy magazines), customize your vehicle, try Fight Club, rob stores and much more. Mafia 3 is coming in just a few hours, but we can’t say the same for Mafia 3 reviews.

Mafia 3 Pros
- You can enjoy the open world from the moment you start the game
- The map is huge divided into 10 districts.
- Main and side missions have great stories.
- Animations for using guns and knives are well done, very realistic.
- Although finding all collectibles don’t reward you with any cool stuff, you’ll find some of them pretty interesting!
- Music tracks are amazing.
- It’s great to feed alligators with corps.
- You’ll have a lot of fun especially when you enter the places / zones that are only for white people
Mafia 3 Cons
- Mission objectives are repetitive (go there and kill someone).
- Stealth mechanic is not well implemented, and you can easily take advantage of it.
- Small number of different weapons.
- You can’t customize Lincoln, you can only get upgrades that increase health or let you carry more ammo
- Frame rate is terrible at the moment (30 FPS), but they promised to fix it soon.
- Lock picking mechanism is too easy.
