I disagree, especially when you look at how much is going on in each game. The are some nice scripted details in mafia 2, but the game world on the whole is far far less complex. And then when you look at red dead redemption and see the upgrades to that engine. The frame rate on Mafia 2 on the 360 in some places is down right unacceptable. I dont remember the framerate dipping that low on GTAIV. The gunplay on Mafia 2 is horrendous on the controller. So much so it takes away the enjoyment a little. The open city is a bit misleading also the game is very linear.
But what does make this game good is the story, its a good story. I'm sorry but i dont think the gameplay or the engine is as polished as GTAIV. I think the story is better, but there's no where near as much going on in the game engine as there is in GTAIV. And the car handling in Mafia is horrible. If the story wasnt this good it would be a 7. |
well rdr doesnt have many buildings does it and it still runs at 30 fps + some occasional slowdowns, rage engine is crap euphoria or not, mafia 2 loox very colourfull compared to grayed down gta4 plus it has normal centered camera view so u can drive without constantly swaying your right stick around, car handling is great i like it, putting it on sim mode adds some complexity where u have to break earlier, friggin xbox needs memory and video upgrade, it's outdated peace of crap which needs to be put to rest, instead they release this bs which is same shit that was released 5 yo with some minor tweaks

Not sure if you had any luck mate. I've downloaded the IND + Elite version and the problem is still there. Rarely it loads past the drinking cutscene in chapter 2. Even if it does it still gets stuck when i enter the apartment. Never had a problem like it before. Annoying as fuck since i took today off work to play it. Ah Well...

wtf is all this about low frame rate? i have yet to notice any slow down on my 360 and i've played through chapter 4. the only slow down i notice is when the cops come after you and the screen gets that blue haze over it. i assumed that was intentional.
just to put my stance out there i dont give a fuck if i'm playing a hello kitty console with 22 atari 2600's wired in series, if i like the game i really dont give a shit what it's on. yes the pc has more potential, yes the 360 is seriously lacking but it's still doing quite well? why is it every-single-fucking time a game comes out there has to be this pc versus console pissing contest? neither party is going to change the others opinion so really, wtf is the point? why not just say "i like pc better" or "i like xbox better" and leave it at that because honestly, the rest of that shit doesn't matter.

I have noticed some slowdown but nothing severe. Anyone found out how to wear a damn suit without wearing a hat?

Hmmm, I can't remember you being this much of a whiny bitch when I was last browsing the forums. Why don't you just stick to the PC? Is it because your life is that devoid of meaning that you end up playing a game you seem to hate, on a platform you seem to hate, because you desperately need something to occupy your time other then masturbation and self-loathing.
I really find people like you pathetic, people who complain and whine constantly about a leisure activity that they have chosen to indulge in. Anyone would think you were forced into playing these games. I remember now why people like you are almost exclusively found on forums, because in real life no-one wants to listen to your boo-hoo bullshit.

Whoa Whoa Whoa guys. Jesus. We all come here for the same reason, to talk about gaming. We all have a right to share our opinion and I dont see the need to throw shit around at each other when this all started with an honest opinion.
I think the xbox version is a fantastic game. Especially if you are unable to play it on the PC. This is because ALL consoles have a ceiling. They can never attain framerates, resolutions, and sound fidelity beyond their hardware's limitations. The opposite can be said about PCs, where your ceiling is only limited by your pocketbook. So it goes without saying that in most cases, and your personal mileage may vary, your experience has the potential to be better on the PC in the instance of a game or piece of software that was developed for both platforms.
So now can we get back on topic without the flame war and either just agree to disagree or actually try to see the merit in each others arguments?

It looks and play fine on 360 version if your 360 isn't hooked up with a PC monitor and sitting few cm in front of it. My only complaint about 360 version is it is fucking hard. I am no good ad gamepads aiming, I have been using kb+mouse all my life and almost never had gamepad in hands. I can finish most games although on easy difficulty on gamepad, but I am stuck here in 8th chapter. Vito is so fragile and autoaim is badly implemented as it mostly aim at the legs, not in torso/head.
Gonna wait for PC version, because this is unbearable.

Mafia was a 30h+ game? The game content itself was ~12-15h, though the difficulty and rare checkpoints easily made you spend 20h+ to finish it.
