PFFT so the DLCies will be some small stories in which you have to play some completely different character and it wont benefit the actual gameplay of Vito at all?...

There's two DLC about this Jimmy character (As mentioned in the article linked to.) but there's also one entitles Joe's Adventure and I think that was the slightly obese companion to Vito (The guy you play as.) but all I can see are the names and sometimes a light description and that doesn't really reveal much.
(There's also a unnamed DLC9 and DLC10 with most of the rest being these item packs and the above three story things or what they'll be.)

Looks good, plays good, sounds good and it's Mafia. I have nothing to complain about.

Same but only thing that bugs me is already the insane amount of "DLC" that is available and just kept out of the game for more $$$

Well, that bug can be easily squashed. Simply download the DLC when it becomes available.
As I'm going to.
But I am going to buy the game. I can count the number of games I've bought on two hands, but this one is worth every penny.

This is just ridiculous and pathetic:
http://www.destructoid.com/unico-wants-to-halt-release-of-racist-nonsense-mafia-ii-181759.phtml
| Quote: | UNICO National, an Italian American service organization, is looking to put a stop to the release of Take-Two's forthcoming third-person action title, Mafia II.
The organization claims that the title -- which follows the story of a young Italian man as he rises through the ranks of a mob family -- is a "pile of racist nonsense." In a letter sent to Take-Two chairman Strauss Zelnick, UNICO says Mafia II is an "inappropriate and insulting perpetuation of the pervasive and denigrating stereotype of organized crime being the exclusive domain of Italians and Italian Americans."
"Why would [Take-Two] foist a game on their targeted audience of young people wherein they will indoctrinate a new generation into directly associating Italians and Italian Americans with violent, murderous organized crime, to the exclusion of all of the other 'mafias' run by other ethnic and racial groups," says UNICO's Andre DiMino said. "Take-Two is directly, blatantly and unfairly discriminating and demeaning one group to the exclusion of all others. We are demanding they halt release of the game and cleanse it of all references to Italians and Italian Americans."
DiMino is asking for a meeting with execs from Take-Two, a company which he says has a "history of perpetrating its violent, sleazy, racist videogames upon an unsuspecting public."
Mafia II is being release next week, August 24, for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. The game was announced in 2007; if UNICO is truly interested in stopping its release, it's unclear why it waited days before it hits store shelves to go public with its complaints. |
Anyway, response:

As long as "we" have Berlusconi as the mirror of our politics, this statement it's anything but believable! |

Same thing was with City of Lost Heaven when some italian anti-mafia assosiation (I-AM-A)or whatever) complained that it glorifies the mob-life and turn all the kiddies into mobsters (Yup, I had the urge to turn into a mobster too when  Spoiler: | I was killed in the end of the game |

Such organizations should stop thinking gamers are easily infuencible retardos and give us more credit. A gamer has probably a better distinction between reality and fantasy than a non-gamer. What moron turns into a mobster after playing a game? How can all those 'gangsta' movies and pimp wannabee assholes in "reality" shows not influence little kiddies while a game does?
