Jumping into this revitalized take on 2002’s gangster classic I had one question: Can Hangar 13 actually make a good Mafia game? The 2K-owned developer was previously given full reign over the franchise with 2016’s Mafia III. And though the story was rightfully lauded for its themes and well-drawn ensemble cast, the repetitive open world and by-the-numbers mission design left a lot to be desired. How does one overcome this setback? Seemingly not by innovating per se, but rather by going back to the beginning and restoring the original game using a 2020 coat of paint.
Turns out this was a wise decision. While Mafia: Definitive Edition might not be the feature-packed, 40-hour thrill ride most players now likely expect from their modern open-world games, this fully remade version of Illusion Softworks’ cult classic doubles down on the two traits that every series entry released thus far has excelled at: story and characters.

The original Mafia, released all the way back in 2002, has become harder and harder to go back to over the years. It’s clunky, doesn’t look amazing, and suffers annoying quirks. Mafia Definitive Edition, a complete remake that just came out today, is a useful way to go back and experience what is still a good (if not…...

Actor Namit Das says domestic violence has increased amid lockdown, and that is what he is trying to address with his short film, Samskara.
"Domestic violence is an open secret that has seen quite a surge, what with stepping outside of our homes being relatively restricted. This film captures the vicious circle violence perpetuates," Namit said.
"I have played the role of someone who has witnessed abuse at home. It is a grey character and I'm glad that it came to me. I'm super thrilled about the reception it has been getting at film festivals. Kudos to the director, Sankalp Rawal for helming this film so immaculately," he added.
The film narrates the story of what happens when Abhimanyu (Namit) realises that he has become like his father who used to beat up his mother.

Developer Hangar 13 has released an extensive (and stunning) gameplay preview of Mafia: Definitive Edition.
The preview’s primary message seems to be that Mafia: Definitive Edition will retain as much of the original game as the team feels is possible and necessary. As mentioned in this gameplay preview, Hangar 13 is especially interested in retaining and reviving the memorable missions from 2002’s Mafia. We even get a look at that racing mission from the original game which ranks highly among the most frustrating levels in gaming history.
That said, this is a remake of the original game, which means that some things are going to change. While said changes are most obvious in the remake’s visuals, Hangar 13 also says that they’re re-imagining certain gameplay ideas featured heavily in the original Mafia in order to incorporate gameplay ideas introduced in later Mafia titles. For instance, Mafia: Definitive Edition will feature...
