I think its the "treated like one of the best games on the PS3" part. The PS3 doesn't have very many good games. It probably was one of their better games...mjc0961 said:I love pretty cars and fast hookers!
I don't get one thing though: Mafia 2 gets blasted with the shit cannon because you have nothing to do outside the missions but look for playboys. And yet over here was inFamous, a game that gave you nothing to do outside of the structured missions (so story missions + clean up city missions) but look for electric rocks and satellite dishes, and it gets treated like one of the best games on the PS3. If anyone figures that one out, let me know.
Well, no, I was just saying that I don't watch zp to decide if I buy a game, because like I just said, "sometimes Yahtzee tends to miss the good aspects of games."Fabian Stetter said:You watch zp to decide if you buy a game?

I think the length of the prison term was determined because gasoline was rationed due to the war.Vrach said:Hilarious and also perfect review, reflected my experience completely... funish game, but with too much wasted potential and shitty gameplay mechanics to embrace completely. And if the story was a river, Mafia 2 just skipped along the stepping stones of cliches. It's well executed, but that doesn't really make the story itself, the plot, good. I could see each chapter coming a mile away.
Also much agreed on the whole CRIME DOES NOT PAY thing, it's entirely unnecessary. It was great in the first game imo, because the story was fantastic and it executed that part well, you start out right away saying how you got into the life of crime and how you want out. Mafia 2 on the other hand just chucks bullshit at you. You can kill half the bloody city, blow up/set buildings on fire, steal a million cars, butrobbing one safe of nearly-expired gas stamps and you get 10 years of prison? Sod the fuck off really.
Come on now, we all know Candlejack is merely a myth.BlueInkAlchemist said:It seems that Yahtzee has run afoul of Candleja
Most of the time if Yahtzee doesn't at least half like it I'll stay away from it, but hey what can I say, I am sheep! I'd love for him to review Naughty Bear, it just seems like the kind of cutesy violence that he would have a field day with.Jedi Sasquatch said:Well, no, I was just saying that I don't watch zp to decide if I buy a game, because like I just said, "sometimes Yahtzee tends to miss the good aspects of games."Fabian Stetter said:You watch zp to decide if you buy a game?
