It’s 1931, jazz is crackling over the radio of your glossy convertible, and you’re on your way down to the bar to meet with Paulie and the boys about your next big score. Such is the life of Tommy Angelo, Lost Haven resident, and cabby turned gangster. Mafia: Definitive edition serves as a reminder of how far America and the open-world genre have come in eighteen years. While it mostly succeeds at reimagining the Mafia series’ best story, the gameplay elements of a bygone era leave it feeling uneven in spots.
