Mafia II, the story is interesting in the darkness of the Mafia World
Mafia II may be one of the best work from 2K Games and 2K Czech. But because the system has a game similar to Grand Theaft Auto (GTA), then notion that this game 'peek' is a game made by Rockstar.
But with a storyline that is so interesting, as well as a variety of game systems, making Mafia II can be successful without the continued GTA series.
Opinion is quite reasonable. In the game Mafia II gamers will find some things in the GTA. For example, a similar style to steal cars, how to escape the police chase the same, until the method of recovering a food considered to mimic the action of the game in the GTA.
Beginning of the story, gamers will be presented a video on how to become a soldier Vito. Starting from his small, then grow up with a lot of mischief, until he be remanded to join military service.
Arguably, the most interesting aspects of the Mafia II is a strong storyline and interconnected. In this game players will behargaeran as Vito Scaletta, ie, a veteran of World War II.
Want to quickly resolve any problems in the family Vito met his childhood friend, Joe Barbaro, to get a job. Well, here starts to look a few criminal acts committed by two men.
After completing his duties as a soldier, Vito returned home with hopes of continuing to live with his family. But alas, when he got home he found his family's debts and his father who had died.
Each mission will bring Vito acted up to pursue his career as a Mafia family. But not always happy, there are times when the hero is on a mission as a custody
The whole story in this game will be in Empire Bay, which is a virtual city designed from the form of New York in the era of the 1940s. Vito and Joe will jointly complete the one mission to another mission given by a mafia boss.
But keep in mind, Mafia II is not a friendly game for children. Besides loaded with scenes of violence, this game also inserted some smelly porn content. For example, a collection of Playboy magazines that can be obtained at a particular player.
Old school atmosphere was increasingly supported by the appearance of a character with hair styles and clothing typical of the era. Not to mention the background music that accompanies the player while driving a car.
Business graphics and sound structure looks like 2K do not play games. Appearance of the characters to the background noise in favor of this game feels so fantastic, so the players would be brought in the era of classical ambiance 40'an.
Pehargautaran effect of time was seen look amazing, the system pehargaindahan time of morning, noon, and night is so captivating. Ouw yes, the whole mission is not only played in the winter, some actually played the last mission in the summer ala Empire Bay.
Driving a car in the affairs of Mafia II is not easy, because it was winter and heavy snow, the car will easily slip. This is so troublesome when the player should be driving a car with a record time.
The most annoying thing in the Mafia II is that there are bugs everywhere. we use a computer with an Intel Core i7 965 processor, VGA GeForce GTX 275, but encountered several problems such as crashes, corrupted graphics, and even sometimes the game can not be played. Luckily, some problems could be solved by updating the driver.
Comes with an interesting storyline, the graphics quality is gorgeous, and amazing sound structure which makes Mafia II look good. But that does not mean the game is without flaws.
Though overshadowed by the GTA series, but it seems to resemble Mafia II 2K managed to look different. Through all the advantages it offers, making this game could provide a new experience of playing an Action Adventure game in the third person perspective.
Another factor that is very unfortunate in this game is a story that quickly resolved. There are about 15 chapters in the Mafia II, and the player can finish all the missions within 8-9 hours.
Disadvantages:
- Many bug
- Classified as a brief
Pros:
+ Interesting story
+ Quality captivating graphics
+ Mission diverse

Swimming is also used as a place to look for other frog species that can be directly ditomplok to produce new offspring. This process will put the eggs in a special habitat called Nursery (spawning).
And adult frogs are domesticated (by feeding in the pond) can be stored in a catalog. This will make it easier when there are certain frogs that is up for sale but it's a pattern or color is needed to win another award.
Coins are the currency of this game. Herb is used to accelerate the growth of frogs, for example, from egg to adult frog soon become. Stamps are used to speed up the shipment, whether it be gifts or items bought in stores.
Social features of this game using the Plus +, the same used or WeFarm GodFinger. Through Plus + player can see his collection of frogs and toads as give each other gifts.
