Msxbox-world has published a slideshow zoomed in video of all the Playboy images featured in Mafia II. For those who can't be bothered to collect them in game.
With E3 starting next week, 2K Games revealed the biggest E3 line up they have for the year
Only game iam waiting for is for mafia 2 nothing else intrest me well only Metal gear solid peace walkers but ill get that soon
nice. waiting to see what mafia 2 and spec ops the line has too offer. not into rts games, so civ 5 not for me, and not too familiar with x-com series.
GF365: "There are some games with extraordinary visuals that impress us to this day. Here are old games with outstanding graphics."
Same as Killzone 2 and 3, uncharted 2 and 3, Infamous 2, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3
I wish this was entirely true, but you might want to load up Killzone 2 and Resistance 3 again.
@jason I watched some gameplay videos of KZ2 and R3 on my full screen. They are on par or succeed graphically to the first person shooters mentioned in the article that also launched on the seventh generation of consoles. Try the same and see what you think
Killzone 3 was super impressive! I could not believe the graphics back then as I was regularly pausing the game to stand in awe looking at the surroundings! Resistance however did not impress me that much. Heavy rain is also another amazing graphically speaking game. It almost felt next gen
I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.
They did for their day. I recently played gears judgement with on the 360 and the draw distance was so blurry. The characters up close look great though
Far Cry 2 was awesome. In addition to having demonstrably better physics and AI than later games in the series, it had a lot of design decisions that, criticized at the time, have since been praised in games like BOTW and Dark Souls.
It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good
Originally released back in 2010 for last-gen (PS3, Xbox 360) consoles, 2K Games has re-released Mafia 2 as part of the Mafia Trilogy, and has called it the “Definitive Edition.” Now, the question is, does this mafia go for the kill, or does it run out of bullets? Read on for our Mafia 2 Definitive Edition review.
I can't believe there actually an article like this. The guy who wrote this article has too much free time on his hand!
Edit: The sad thing is this article actually gone to get approved
The guys at 2K Czech obviously felt the Mafia II gamers were mature enough to appreciate the different looks women had in the 40s and 50s. Had it not been for this game I doubt I'd ever have bothered looking back at the history of Playboy images.
Becuase I know if this gets approved it will be the top story within an hour. Which it doesnt really deserve to be
Yeah, I'm awesome, like the Miz.
As a photographer, those images are tastefully produced, making them interesting viewing material beyond the obvious showing of skin. It's interesting to see what constituted as 'sexy' back in the 40s and 50s as styles have changed dramatically since then.
It's pretty brave of 2K Games to include these sorts of images in the game but they obviously felt it wouldn't do any harm.
It does also raise the issue of how extreme violence is acceptable in games and sex not so much.
EDIT - I laugh at people's insecurities over these images, casting stones at others saying they are 'sad' or 'desperate' viewing them. What happened to appreciation of form and artistic merit? You don't have to be a weirdo, or single to appreciate both.
