Thanks for the tip Raiki! I ordered two since it was such a great deal and that knocked me up to free shipping. So with tax and shipping I got two black 360 controllers for $43.28.

Nice!

Of course those have the old D-pad if that's an issue for ya.

But they built a full city, it's like teh Grand Theft Autos!

Seriously though, I agree. Though, the first game had some pretty epic missions, which I haven't read much about in reviews so far.

MAFIA was more of a story told in a gangster simulation, rather than designed around arcade fun. The fun of simulations ARE the fact that the cars handle realistically and you have to driver the whole way there. When you wreck your car and the engine dies and the police gun you down...I actually like that kind of realism.

Simulation isn't very popular these days, so I can see why reviewers aren't really getting into it.
