Mafia: City of Lost Heaven

Well . . . it was released in 2002 for PC and in 2004 for XBox and PS2, but even after 8 years it is one the best Third person Shooter game ever to hit the market. Developed by Illusion Softworks (renamed to 2K Czech in 2008) and published by Gathering of Developers, Mafia is often compared to GTA (Grand Theft Auto),  the most famous open world game !!

Experts and Critics call it more realistic and serious than Grand Theft Auto. According to a survey, Mafia has sold 2 million copies by the end of 2008, that means about a 1000 copies every day . . .The game takes us all the way back to 1930, as we (Thomas "Tommy" Angelo) spend time in the Sicilian Mafia, assassinating different gang and political leaders. Tommy used to be taxi driver, but one day he encountered the mafia and from there on he started working with them, as a transporter as well as a professional assassin !
You won't expect AK-47(s) and $1000 sniper rifles, but it surely has the guns available back in 1930, like Tommy gun and Colt 1911.
It received about 90% rating for PC and a pitiful 67% for XBox and PS2.

If you have to ask me . . I'd say Mafia is the best game for a non-gaming PC, lets just not talk about XBox and PS2, shall we ?
