READ THIS, all of it, ya see... or I'll have ya whacked! Ya see?
Mafia is a 3D action crime epic set in the seedy underworld of the 1930’s. Rise from the lowly but well-dressed Footsoldier, to an envied and feared Made Man in an era of mob hits, car chases, and bootlegging. Earn a reputation as a tough enforcer, daring getaway driver, and deadly hitman in your quest for respect and power within the Salieri Family.
Features:
20 action-packed missions with sub-quests – luxury and riches are yours for the taking, if you do as Don Salieri has requested. From mob hits, car chases, shootouts, and more, complete the unsavory tasks the Family needs done and you will be handsomely rewarded.
Explore more than 12 square miles of the 1930’s American city, with simulated traffic, landmarks, and surrounding landscapes.
Convincing environments pull you into the 1930’s with their attention to detail and style. From seedy bars and hotel rooms to train stations and airports – every location is rendered in fantastic detail by the 3D “LS3D” engine, such as the Lost Heaven International Airport and Chinatown.
Gun down enemies with weapons like the Tommy Gun, Colt 1911, S&W model 27 MAGNUM, or pump action shotgun.
Drive over 60 different vehicles (including classics, roadsters and delivery trucks) with the most realistic car physics ever made in a game.
Story:
The hero, Tommy, is a cabdriver who is happy to have a job in times of crisis. His joy, however, does not last long. Bya freak chance, he managed to save some members of a Mafia Family from being killed by hit men, belonging to another Mafia gang. Three Mafiosi, who were being chased, had jumped into his cab and ordered him to shake off their pursuers ... and Tommy, thanks to him being an excellent driver, managed to do just that.
Whilst the saved gangsters, seeing what a capable driver he was, offered him a job for their boss, Don Salieri, the killers working for Don Morelli only thirst for taking revenge on anybody who crosses their path. This leads to Tommy loosing his cab in dramatic circumstances, and thus also loosing his livelihood. Only by seeking refuge with Don Salieri's people saves his life. Visualising himself in a dismal situation of standing in a queue for some soup, he accepts the job offered to him by the Family.
In the beginning, Tom likes his new job and being a gangster. It gives him an opportunity to take revenge on Morelli's men, he is never short of money, and all of this he gets for giving someone a bit of a warning, or a small hiding. Among the town folk, he is regarded with great respect. He meets a girl, whom he eventually marries and they have a child.
Gradually, as times goes by, he starts to see the other side - the shady one - of his work: murders,assassinations, dangerous shootouts, and mad car chases during which the smallest mistakes means death. The real horror of his job gets through to him only when he is given an order to kill people who he knows personally, and who he likes. He is asked to kill the accountant working for the Family who co-operated with the police only to save his loved ones, and to kill his own wife's friends.... Tom is a respected man in the Family, and nobody therefore suspects him of not carrying out his assignments to the letter, even though sometimes he does do just that. However, nothing lasts forever.
