This is the full detailed review of Mafia 2, for Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC, from gaming website PlanetXbox360.com - overall they liked the game but did have some issues with the gameplay and graphics.

Games based around the infamous mobsters of the 1940s are few and far between, in fact there’s really only one or two I can think of, the first being the original game in the Mafia series by 2K. After almost eight years, 2K is finally releasing a sequel to the well received original which easily captures the essence of the eras it weaves through. Mafia II follows the story of Vito Scaletta and his rise through the ranks of the various mob families of Metropolis over almost a decade. The first mission follows Vito as he serves time for the military in Sicily during World War II, for reasons I won’t spoil, Vito ends up back home in Metropolis and begins his hunt for work before his next tour of duty. What follows is a slow downward spiral as Vito goes deeper into the mafia’s business of drugs, women and dealing death.
