Both are good in their own rights. But Skyrim is best

Mafia 2 was the better game overall, it had one major annoying issue to it though: every single mission always had to go wrong. There was never a sense of "I did that perfectly" because missions going pear-shaped were scripted into the game, so no matter how well you carried out as much of the mission as the game let you it was always a case of bad luck every mission. Kind of repetitive...

L.A. Noire is quite slow paced, you have to do a lot of analysing and action bits are more rare. Mafia 2 gives you guns to wreak havoc with and doesn't really care much about anything else lol. The strange thing is, Mafia 2 has more similarities to GTA than L.A. Noire :P Both are gritty games though.

L.A. Noire is quite slow game, checking everything for clues, evidences, intorregating witnesess. Everything takes a lot of time. I personally was sometimes bored of this. There is no much action. Main advantage would be plot.

Mafia, has fast action, a lot of "shoot everybody around". Story is quite nice, but not so good like in L.A. Noire. Gameplay is focused on story, You cant "freely" explore the town.

Both games have a lot of vehicles (but i think L.A. Noire has more) and collectibles.

Mafia 2 is a good game, but for some reason I just don't feel motivated to go back and play it often. L.A. Noire on the other hand is interesting to me. It plays more like Heavy Rain than anything really. Its basically a new take on point and click adventure gaming. The main reason why I waited so long to play L.A. Noire was because I HATED GTA IV, but I've found I am really really enjoying L.A. Noire and have almost beat it I think.

Mafia 2!:D

You can't compare with this 2 games

Mafia 2 Genre: Action

L.A Noire Genre: Puzzle game

MAFIA 1

mafia 2 because it's more fast paced,better characters and action packed. Played both games btw.

Mafia 1... mafia 2 is bad game, simply bad... 2K games cut almost everything from it

And mafia2 and LA noire are totally different games

mafia 2

Although I have never played Mafia 2 I can tell you that I really enjoyed LA Noire as it is very original and fun

Mafia 2, more hilarious moments in that than LA Noire.

LA Noire, it's a unique and wonderful experience. Mafia 2 is just an excellent game shadowed by its predecessor, Mafia 1, which I still regard as my favourite game of all time.

Sleeping Do.. I mean L.A. Noire

Mafia wins. Play both for a great story. LA Noire sucks. Fanboy here, and I don't care, come at me.

Mafia 2

ROFL
Carmageddon or Test Drive?
Makes same sense as your comparison.
These game are completely different and both are great btw. (mafia and LA, not the uppermentioned [theyre good too tho])

Mafia 2.

Mafia 2 has a good plot. L.A. Noire is very good detective simulator xD I am for LA Noire, however i love good stories

Both...But if I have to choose,I will choose Mafia 2(Story its better) but L.A Noire is very good too...

And dont compare that crappy Sleeping Dogs with L.A. Noire

Ooooh it's so hard to compare them because they're so different in so many ways, but also so similar :P I think I have to say the story of Mafia had me hooked way more. I felt for ALL the characters, and the gunplay was superb. (I don't even use that word, that's how good it is)

This is like compearing an Apple to a Frying pan...

Other than "some of the settings" they are nothing alike...

That being sad, both looks like garbage ^^

Both.
