IIRC there was a rumor that there are 3 playable characters. Not sure if this was debunked.For what it's worth, the 2K studio making this (Hangar 13), has the director of Star Wars 1313 on it, and some ex-Telltale folk it seems. The idea of a branching narrative Mafia intrigues me, if that's where this goes.
Yes, the list of cut contents for Mafia 2 made me sad, like extremely sad.Mafia 2 felt like it had a lot of trouble during development which impacted the final game. Mafia 1 will remain one of my favourite games evern, I hope they can capture that magic again.
It did but is no longer available on Steam.Did Mafia I release on Steam? I got the second game but I don't want to miss out on the story of the first game :P.

The first one is a classic.Can't say I ever played any of the Mafia games. The perception I got from reviews and impressions was that it was a pretty average yet slightly enjoyable game but nothing special. Kinda of a B-Movie game like Just Cause was. Didn't realise there was a demand for it?
2K Czech is still alive and they have been quiet for a long time. I think that they are still working on Mafia game.IIRC there was a rumor that there are 3 playable characters. Not sure if this was debunked.
edit: I thought this was done by 2K San Francisco? Or is Hangar 13 == 2K San Francisco?
well the main brains behind Mafia 1 quit 2K Czech during Mafia2 development(disagreements about 2K cuts) and founded Warhorse studiosOriginally Posted by Corpekata
Wait 2k Czech aren't making this? They haven't put out a game in years. Seems weird they'd be left out of their franchise if they're not seemingly working on anything.
Why would that be weird though? Many of the teams members had huge problems with the game director and the development wasn't smooth at all.Originally Posted by Corpekata

I meant more because 2k Czech exists and is apparently not doing like, anything. Even their website appears to have not been updated. What exactly have they been doing that hasn't gotten them shuttered yet if they're not working on Mafia 3?Originally Posted by Madridista

I can imagine it cost Take-Two extra to call in the GTA guys to help them out by the end of development, because they couldn't finish it themselves.
I was of the understanding that their new studio in 'The Bay' (presumably San Francisco?) was developing it. They were briefly helmed by Rod Fergusson before he went back to work on Gears.Originally Posted by uncleniccius
There were debates about who were doing it in the last couple of threads and it sounded like what it is left of 2K Czech might be doing it - they worked on it previously so it would make sense
