u know what... its not mafia i was thinking about.

Its Just Cause 2.


Sorry i was mistaking my mafia games.. :p

Just Cause 2 is a great game... very open world which is why i was getting confused on the statements on mafia.

I got the games mixed up.

That makes more sense, except for the mafia part (JC2 had no mafia that I remember). Just Cause 2 is a fantastic open world game, and without the open world part wouldn't be very good. The story isn't great, the voice acting is terrible, but I dumped a ton of extra hours into it past completion. It sucked me in like no other. The PC version is even better with a good choice of mods and better visuals.

That's not Just Cause 2. There is an organized crime faction but Just Cause 2 is on a series of tropical islands and the story isn't even important. There's no Italian mafia or Triads.

I played Fable 3 for an hour and uninstalled it. I could not get into whistling to random strangers to make them happy, making pie for gold and digging for treasure.

A big WTF?

Dead Island gets old quick. Witcher 2 is similar in that respect..too many mundane quests..feels like i'm grinding

Neither. Instead, take your money, convert it into coins, throw them out the window and then go outside and pick them all up. You'll get more enjoyment, your money will last longer and then you'll end up having extra money toward BF3, Skyrim or something else. :)
