Description:
| Quote: |
‘Made Man’ is a third person action adventure that follows Joey Verola as he is indoctrinated into, and progresses through, the hierarchy of the most notorious crime organization in history; the Mafia. The storyline spans three decades of his life, from the horror of Vietnam to the urban jungle of Brooklyn, but it avoids the clichéd chronological constraints of many other games. Made Man has a very strong plot, with the missions written by best selling authority on the Mafia, David Fisher. David’s collaboration with retired Mafia caporigieme Bill Bonanno, a senior member of the Bonanno crime family, has ensured that each career step and mission is based upon authentic Mafia incidents. The involvement of these authorities gives an authenticity to the content of the game and also presents a considerable marketing opportunity. |

It it just me or is the pc game industry dieing slowly. Developers seem to really empathize the consol market.
It logical when you think about it, easiier for development on a standard platform

consoles are where the money is at. plus not eveyone has a gaming pc. so yes its common sense the pc is dying.
back in the day say for doom it didnt matter what kind of pc you had, anyoen could play the game. nowadays you need a kickass comp to play games decent. and ppl buy those dells n shit that come with integrated gfx that you cant play a damn thing on.

Actually PC games sales have gone up. It is just that console sales have just gone up even more.

What The Critics Said:
51% - PC Format
There are a million and one better shooters out there. [Dec 2006, p.118]
45% - PC Gamer UK
Just as frustrating is the shoddy timing and placement of enemies. [Dec 2006, p.74]
39% - PC Zone UK
The problem's with the lack of inspiration or effort. [Christmas 2006, p.81]

PS2 and PC, that has to be the most retarded release scheme ever. If you're not going to make it exclusive to a particular platform and it's not next-gen then you at least release it for all the current gen consoles. You maximise the market then.
This way you might sell a few on the PS2 but it's going to look like shit on the PC. Idiotic developers and publishers.
No wonder the game is bollocks.

the one in the middle of the mademan's pic looks exactly like sam in mafia o.O (his face for sure)
@jigsaw, you can always try to "force" AA (not using application preference in your drivers), has worked for me on games that didnt support/had it

, either way, Made Man came across as a piss poor version of Mafia.
maybe because its a port will try reforce tormorrow.
