*Joe gets in other car*
 
"Oh shit? leo's guys aren't?...."
 
*See's Joe's car turn down a different street*
 
"Cmon...no no no"
 
*Leo explains, Vito sits there quiet*
 
"Do something Vito...cmon cmon COME ON FUCK!"  I stand up drop the controller, kick it against the shelf and walk out of the room pissed.
 
99% of the time in games when something important is happening I think of it as "oh they (as in the devs) aren't going to blah blah" but this and the whole atmosphere of the game in general (love those montages) just made it really feel like an interactive movie but with actual good voice acting/decent gameplay/great writing.  (Aka the opposite of the hyped story games like heavy rain/alan wake)
 
Add 
2K Czech  to Swery, Atlus, Bioware and Rockstar as making the only games where the story actually elicited an emotion beyond "this is good or bad writing/voice acting etc"
 
Honestly the fact I was so mad at the ending (not in a shit this is dumb way) is impressive to me.

My jaw dropped and I said "Nooooo!" 
I really liked Joe.
 
*haz a sad*
 
I really enjoyed the game though. My only gripe was lack of side missions/open world-ness. I actually enjoyed the driving. I love 50's related stuff.

I'm real sad about that. I mean, Joe puts all his trust into Vito without any clue what's happening, and Vito repays it by getting Joe killed (of no fault of his own, but still). 
 
Joe was a likable guy, and that bummed me out. 

I always figured Joe was going to die, I wasn't so surprised about that. I was surprised that the damn game ended that abrubtly. I was like "That's it?". I thought it would end at the end of Vito's life or something, with him going to jail again or getting whacked or what-have-you. Just seemed like a....well, kind of a dumb ending, honestly.

I loved the ending. I thought it was fantastic.

I really loved the ending. I sense a sequel filled with revenge. Also I hope the DLC ties in somehow and continues a bit.

So Joe Peschi doesn't die?

Wasn't it kinda obvious?

I was expecting him to die but the way it was done so incredibly well done. Loved the ending. I really like endings that have a conclusion of the story but also ends opened ended so you have a feeling that even though the Movie/TV Show/Game is over the character(s) keep going on. Just like how I LOVED the series finale of Angel. :D

" Wasn't it kinda obvious? "

I feel like Joe knew he was going to die as soon as he saw he was getting into a different car. You could see it on his face.

 Hell, we dont even know if Mafia 3 will even be a continuation of this story. "

I was waiting for Vito to flip out and shoot Leo. :(

" Well, they never did confirm that he was killed. I men, its kinda implied, but what pissed me off there was no reaction, no response from vito, no nothing. Just a upward pan of the city in the distance and a fade to black. Maybe theyll have DLC to flesh it out more, maybe Joe figured it out and got away. Who knows. We wont until either the next game or something comes up. Hell, we dont even know if Mafia 3 will even be a continuation of this story. "

As long as they finish it properly in DLC form and not in a sequel, then I'll be happy.

I kinda figured that Joe would get it in the end, but I was hoping he would make it through unscathed.  As soon as he got into a separate car, I knew.  Made my heart sink just a bit.  Like some of you guys, I'm hoping that they'll release some DLC that shows Joe getting the jump on those guys and escaping.  He's too cool of a character to go out like that.

I liked what they were trying to do, even if it felt a little too abrupt.

it felt too abrupt but apart from that i liked that they basically gave you a sense of no matter who these guys deal with, they are totally fucked in the end. at one point in the game theres the line "you work like a dog for 30 years before your either popped or end up in the can". i kinda felt the end proved that quote somewhat.
