Mafia II vs Torn
Mafia II
Mafia II is a mafia-themed action-shooter game that puts you in the shoes of Vito Scaletta, an up-and-coming mobster who, with his loyal buddy Joe, has made a name for himself among higher-ups in the mafia and is steadily rising up the ranks. However, not everyone is happy with his (your) ascension and they aim to put a permanent end to it. Set in Empire Bay during World War II, the game also has plenty of atmospheric nuances that will basically teleport you back into the past - to the golden era of the mafia and mobsters. Not to mention, the game has some of the most intense gunplay, car chases and hand-to-hand combat that complement the whole mafia drama that Mafia II has going on. There are plenty of weapons, vehicles, clothes and characters that you can interact with as well.If you enjoy old-school mafia-themed games, Mafia II is a game you won't want to miss. The game follows the same formula that had made the Mafia franchise such a hit and yet it has provided a ton of exciting new features and improvements that will give you a much better gaming experience.
Torn
Torn is a browser-based text-based MMORPG (now available on Android!) that is among the earliest crime-themed text-based MMOs on the internet. It has inspired multiple equally-popular games, including Zynga's Mafia Wars and David Maestri's Mob Wars, though the former isn't as lasting as Torn.In this game, you play as an up-and-coming mobster in a vast fictional city that is just ripe for you to do your misdeeds in. The types of crimes you can commit, albeit virtually, in this game in astounding, and this is more so if you take into consideration that levels of depth and intricacies that Torn goes to make the game as immersive as it could. Of course, if you "failed" a crime attempt, you can risk going to jail for quite some time, from minutes to hours to even several days. You can battle other mobsters as well, both individually and in a clan.
There are plenty of other stuff to do aside from diving into a life of crime or dueling others. You can take up legitimate jobs or set up a business of your own; you can hit the gym to level up your stats; you can enroll in an educational course; or you can even craft items and sell them to others by posting ads.
Torn is one of the longest-running, mafia-themed, and text-based MMO game out there, and those aforementioned are just some of the reasons why it managed to stick around for so long. If you enjoy text-based mafia games, you'll want to give this game a try!
