Mafia officially announced for XBOX!

Straight from http://xbox.ign.com/articles/369/369904p1.html:


"September 03, 2002 - Take-Two Interactive's gang-bustingly good Mafia is headed to Xbox and PS2 early next year. Released recently for the PC with disgustingly positive reviews, Mafia puts you where you've always wanted to be -- in with the mob. Starting out as a no-name foot soldier in the 1930's war for gangland supremacy, work your way through the ranks to become a feared Made Man! It's violent, it's fun, it's from the people who do underworld violence best. Look for Mafia to hit both systems in March 2003."


Can anyone say preorder?

Cool, this sounds like an old school 80's game I used to play called King of Chicago. :)

Awesome , I can't wait,

I heard it was excellent and the thugs are like the 1930's thugs. So that means they are cool and they got the italian accent like godfather series sorta thing....And you cant speed in cars very fast its more than just run'n gun (ala GTA series)

march 2k3 is just way tomg to wait, i bet we are waiting for the ps2 port to be done. i saw months ago where it was running on an xbox dev kit. the game should come out for xbox by xmas but o no dam sony and take2 in bed.

I thought it was also coming to GCN? I've got it on PC and it's a cool game.

Sounds great, but that seems like an awfully long time to wait.
