>first two Mafias
Mafia had more in common with Driver than with GTA, and Mafia 2 has nothing over GTA IV except maybe muh atmosphere and was bashed when it came out because it was a downgrade from M1 in everything except graphics. I really wish more people that actually saw at least M2 on release posted here, holy shit this board is zoomer central.
Trying this hard to fit in will get you nowhere, anon. Godfather was more like Fighting Force with an open world and bigger emphasis on guns, i you are going to compare it to Scarface, at least pick Godfather II. Total Overdose is fun but it is closer to Max Payne. Driver was impressive for PS1 but was always junk, 3 is trash and PL late PS2 budget title. Honestly, Driver franchise didn't have a honest to God great game without any "but", "for its time" and "didn't age well"'s until San Francisco, which is not retro anyway.
Shooting, mission and characters are definitely better, but this engine... You can't jump, there are no bikes on helicopters and cars don't feel like cars at all, more like a flying vehicle on a certain distance about the ground so Big Rigs like shit.
Was it the mission where you had to kill those gangsters who drive in waves of like 20 cars? Yeah that shit was pissing me off for awhile because my vehicle got blown up within seconds. I had to just pick off drivers with headshots while cowering in the bathroom of the movie place.
Also the reward for 100% the game is neat, but ultimately useless as there is barely anyone to fight at that point.
Not hard to do. The Getaway and the first two Mafias also mogged but the normies caught onto GTA first and that's all she wrote.
London is a shitty setting and gamers rightfully didn’t want to listen to shitty 1940s music in Mafia. GTA will always be better as a total package.

GTA 4 is the real mafia 2 (and not a GTA game)
It's definitely better than GTA Vice City.
Of course, in which GTA you can talk to anyone?
yakuza ripoff
Nothing has ever mogged anything.
For me, it's
Godfather > Scarface > True Crime > Mafia > Total Overdose > Driver > GTA
TD is Max Payne clone, not GTA clone

It doesn't really though does it? It's still a fun game though if you like the character/movie.
Not retro
It is

One of the first few missions at the drive in movies was too fucking hard.

I was wondering how this zoomer thread made it past my filters, but then I remembered I changed browsers on my phone recently and need to redo them.
