Må si meg enig med denne kommentaren på Eurogamer-anmeldelsen:
How is this in any way different than GTA4? Especially the autosave business? I guess what gets criticism here warrants a perfect 10/10 when it comes from Rockstar, huh?
it's hard to believe Empire Bay is, in fact, practically empty.
Mafia II was having me play stamp salesman, and it wasn't even kidding.
But the reality is that Mafia II strings the player through a couple of dozen mandatory missions
the potential for exploration is nil.
You can sometimes ignore your current objective and drive around, but why would you? There's nowhere to go. The map's points of interest range from almost useless - clothing stores that feature a handful of drab outfits - to outright baffling, like the aforementioned gas stations in a world where the cars never run out of gas.
OK, your turn: Where's the checkpoint? If you guessed, "all the way back at the beginning of the freaking chapter, before the cut-scenes, driving, gunfight, and everything else," then apparently you have also experienced Mafia II's sadistic autosave stinginess
