I picked up "Mafia: Definitive Edition" cheap the other day (I've linked it on Steam as it's still on sale for the next few days).

I was a fan of Mafia (the original from 2002) and felt it was cheap enough to give it a shot and I'm glad I did: besides the infamous/arduous racing level I found it to be very enjoyable overall.

I was sad to see that there wasn't any "Freeride Extreme" in the latest version (this was bonus, fun, ludicrous content, available after completing the game) as it would have been a nice addition, the "Freeride" mode is likewise a little lackluster but the actual campaign is great.

What was the last game you finished? Was it any good?

In the same boat, it's such a beautiful game, especially the less you know about it beforehand. It's been awhile since I've played a game like that. I'm just about finishing up the DLC, then going back through the final sequence to see how that affects the ending, I might try to go back and finish out the Steam achievements on it too, just to have them done. If I could have any memories erased in my life, it would be all knowledge of that game, just so I could go back through it one more time with fresh eyes. The ending kind of mirrors the reality of finishing out the game itself, it's kind of sad and bittersweet, it's like a book that I never wanted to end.
