You can get Mafia III on HRK for less than 20 bucks. It can just be activated and played in the EU though.

Have you played the other parts? Mafia and Mafia II? Did you like them?

That would be mad luck, since eveybody else is winning garbage, if anything at all.

It's the extra random key you get when purchasing from their store for some stuff above $1 (I think every $10 it's another +1?) scratch that, doesn't seem right
According to the description it's a 10% for AAA

I think, in this case, by plus one he means the bonus game you get when you purchase a 5 or 10 random game pack at lottery

I played mafia 2.
It was AMAZING, I'd say if you like a good story, and a bit of shooting, thats for you, even if it's just for the story, it's really worth it.

I LOVED Mafia 2. My favourite game ever. Played it 20 times at least.
After playing Mafia 2, I wanted to play Mafia 1 as well, but it's not on Steam and I don't want to buy it from eBay from some shady seller. :-\

If you're from Europe, it's just 17 euros on HRK. Can't go wrong with that.

Mafia 1 was a great game; even though it used GTA style gameplay, it managed to distance itself greatly and provide a fairly linear and restricted story, but one close to old-school mafia films like the Godfather. Unlike today's interactive films sold as video games, it provided challenging tasks for the player and a very strong writing from start to finish, using the medium as well as it could to tell the story in a cinematic, yet still video game-like manner.
Mafia II was more of a straightforward GTA IV clone with a 1950s skin on it, but the writing managed to capture most any things that made the Sopranos popular. It was more vulgar/lot less classy, but it told its (fragmented and somewhat repetitive) story as well as it could, despite gameplay mostly being long cover-based shooter segment after each other—with some variety here and there, thankfully, especially in the first act. (Also, its "story" DLCs suck ass hard, so if you can, avoid them like the plague. The car pack DLCs are bad as well, but at least a few of them could be used in the game.)
Mafia 3 is Assassin's Creed: New Orleans Syndicate. Nothing I saw of that game so far indicates it is a mafia game; especially since technically you are not even playing as a mafioso, you play as a black mobster (at least the previous protagonists were Italian). The cinematic cut-scenes are excellent, but that is roughly 1-2% of good content in the sea of self-repeating tasks, monotone gameplay, uninteresting map, and a never-ending swamp of mediocrity.

I still haven't played Mafia III, so I can't really say whether it executed those ideas successfully or not. I try to avoid categorizing any concepts themselves as inherently good or bad, since any idea in the right hands can be spun into gold, while the wrong hands can struggle spinning even straw from all that straw.

So I don't really have any issues taking the stories outside of La Cosa Nostra. In fact, I'd actually rather they take chances exploring alternative perspectives and experiences in the same vein thematic tradition than just hover along their comfort zone.
After all, it's probably easier to see the potential of centering a story on someone from a Westies like organization, which could easily hit all the important beats while exploring such a unique, untapped perspectives, It would be just as much a 'mafia' story as anything about LCN, while as outside the organization as much as Mafia III seems to be.

Additionally (and mostly incidentally), I think it's worth recognizing that while The Godfather is absolutely a classic and important beyond measure, the film's perspective is heavily romanticized in these mythic terms (somewhat similar to the cinematic creation of the wild west) that a lot of derivative works get caught up evoking this separate mythology at the expensive of other media more representative of the daily realities. More importantly... well, that take has been obviously been covered pretty heavily. I'd propose that the ultimate mafia movie actually revolves around three characters who aren't (and two who can't be) members--Goodfellas--and that it's all the better for it. The struggle of these outside-but-inside figures better outlines the whole 'tree' and how its various roots entangle the world around it, than just looking at the higher up and prettier leaves atop.

There's a lot of great perspectives (even specifically on the Italian American Mob) to explore within a story centered on a 1960s bi-racial gangster from New Orleans trying to keep his head above water after one of the families starts expanding their reach further and further into his home territory. No idea how much of that potential is actually covered though..

Just some random thoughts.

  • G2A Pay
  • Telephone numbers linked to the Twitter accounts of HRK customers were leaked
  • They started out doing one of those scammy Steam game lottery things (which is still reflected in their name)
  • All games they sold at the beginning were from recent cheap IndieGala Bundles with a high markup
  • Hot merchandise means stolen in German (that one is not ment completely serious but it DOES reflect my opinion of them)

I'd rather buy from a reputable store like G2A :D

never trust G2A, they will steal your bank information without your authorisation, and lock you with a shield account without authorisation.

I bought quite a few games there and never had a problem. But with those prices its kinda shady, although they state all keys come from official resellers

Thanks for the head-up :D I think considering my backlog I'll still wait a bit but if I recall correctly Instant Gaming seems to be ok.
