Sweden magazine GameReactor with Mafia 2 preview is here in digital quality.

5-May-2008 Preview: Steve Hogarty opens a violin case to find the sequel to the PC’s finest free-roaming shooter.

Faced with one the developers of the original Mafia, there’s only one question any fan really wants to ask. So I asked it. Why was that bloody racing mission so stupidly difficult?

Daniel Vavra, lead designer at 2K Czech (formerly the far less bleak sounding Illusion Softworks) laughed and assured me that it was originally intended to be harder, and that only the endless nagging of his superiors prevented it becoming the most impossible-to-beat level in gaming history.

Putting old grudges to bed, we set aside the only blotch on Mafia’s tenure as the PC’s greatest, most well-written free-roaming shooter, and move on to the matter at hand – its sequel.

First, 2K Czech are keen to quash rumours – Mafia II is not a continuation of the previous game’s story, nor is the main character related to the original protagonist in any way. Mafia II starts with a clean slate, and with that fact firmly stated, it’s deemed appropriate to show off an early version of the game’s introductory cutscene.
