    This game will suprise everybody! Nobody talks about this game, are you kidding me? The graphics, facial animations, explosions and eviroments are twice as pretty as in GTA IV, and the gameplay looks brilliant!!! I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE HATE ON THIS AMAZING GAME???

    Who has hated on it...?  There's just not been any news about it.  Anyways, yes, I think it has potential to be quite good.

    Step outside your little bubble and read a little around the internet. 
    The "hype" is actually pretty huge for Mafia 2. 
    Especially from the fans of the first game.

    I like the graphics, it's sort of realistic and a good recreation of real life. I just am waiting on the reviews before I get too excited.

    I wouldn't say there's much active hate for the game, its just not as overhyped as a lot of games.

    I haven't seen any hate for Mafia II, except for a few people being annoyed at the delays it has suffered - but that isn't really hating on the game. If anything, it shows love for the game because people are disappointed that they're not going to play it soon.

    The hate is that some people say it looks like just another generic open-world crime game.

    This. Basically the devs have been REALLY quiet about it. They have released a good bit of visual media, but not much beyond that. Everyone I've seen talking about it has been generally pleased with the way it is turning out. I personally cannot wait, I'm hoping my new PC will run it.

    @DwightDHoward:  Most of the 'hate' I've seen has come from people who have actually played the game, either in previews or reviews.  It's supposedly not bad, but it's supposedly extremely linear.  It won't have the mission count, length, or freedom of GTA4, yet it will have similar mission structure.  Personally I don't know if I'll dig this HBO-style mobster over the lovable 30's mobsters of the first game.
     
    BTW, so far the game has a 8/10 from PC Zone and a 7/10 from OXM.

    Just because millions of kids and some game websites arent jizzing all over it pre-release like they do with modern warfare and GeOW doesn't mean its underrated. it hasnt been rated yet!

    There is no hate for the game. People are more concerned with other games. Beautiful explosions don't make a game good.

    Have been waiting for this since I played through the first game.
    The hype is over 9000 and this looks more promising than Grand Theft Auto IV.

    I haven't given Mafia II any attention. I never played the first so I had no real reason to. Will probably be picking up the demo to see what all the fuss is about.
