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?
