As great of a game it is, I really wish it had freemode (why is it in a DLC?) but instead you’re stuck with having to do one of the chapters just so that you could roam around. Which really sucks because I like the style and feel of the game along with the cars. They’re brilliant.
I believe that’s because it was originally set in 1957, but they changed most of the story trough development. There are videos of the beta, and I think you can spot a Thunderbolt in there.
Concepts were a thing back then :P
Loved Mafia II, awesome game
It also has a Merc 300 SL and lots of more cars that arent really 1951…
The first Mafia on the PC was one of the most underrated games ever. Beautiful cars, lots of car-to-car combat and a huge world. A bit blighted by one really hard race that you had to complete to progress, but I think a patch lowered the difficulty. Also had some epic set-piece battles in the countryside and very satisfying shooting.
Someone should just remake that for next-gen! Mafia 2 was great too, but it missed a lot of the first game’s character. But then it could just be my rose-tinted goggles and being an old fart…

Game takes place in the 30’s, actually.
