I wonder which one you're shitting on... hmmmm. HMMMMMM. HHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMM?!
Why does this have to be a VS thing at all? It it cause ya got upset at it in the other thread and need to compare everything to your little darling, and feel compelled to try and convince everyone your favourite should be their favourite too?
B-Cell, dude, just stop and give it a rest for once

Neither. Mafia is from 2K and PoP is Ubisoft, both of which are publishers on my shit list, so how good they are is irrelevant to me.
Also, Demon's Souls is currently the remake to look forward to.

As excited as I am for the Mafia remake, it's pretty obvious that Hangar 13 missed the point of what made the game great in the first place.
Some of the changes to mission structure are just terrible. Too much reliance on scripted events, whereas the original game allowed players to abuse the game's system in logical ways. For example, you could block the enemies from existing the building in "Molotov Party" by parking your car right in front of the back entrance. Now you can't. In the mission "Ordinary Routine" you could shoot out the tires of the car that would in a later sequence be used by one of the enemies to escape. Now you can't. The game wants to have its cinematic sequences, so fuck the players.
Combat looks to be exactly the same as in Mafia 3. And Mafia 3 combat if fuckin' terrible. IMHO, they should have copied Mafia 2 combat. To this day, it's probably one of the best, if not THE BEST third person open world shooter. Every gun in Mafia 2 felt unique and it felt authentic. Not to mention that the player felt vulnerable. In Mafia 3 it just didn't matter what gun you used and Lincoln was pretty much Rambo or Jason Bourne. He was unstoppable. And it looks to be that way in Mafia remake as well. Horrible, absolutely horrible combat system.
Prince of Persia doesn't have any of these issues. It's a very elegant game with very few mechanics, so it's hard to imagine what they could get wrong. It is a lot easier to get it right. I think it's pretty obvious that it will be a better remake, because it will stay true to the original a lot more than Mafia remake.
And this is how you argue in favor or against something.

I mean neither? Remakes rarely work, see the new Kingdom of Amamaluramamaa remake that is still buggy as hell.

They're not. He simply saw the Prince of Persia remake thread, shit on the game, and then decided it had to have another thread so he could continue shitting on the game and tell everyone why his remake is better than the rest
I’m actually disappointed in the happenings there because I was one of the few mutants who liked the OG version.
Also Prince of Persia has the highest chance of being good because the game its being remade from was already good whereas Mafia was pretty rubbish.
