Fuck fuck fuckity fuck: The Game, or Mafia 2 for short.
 
I'll just leave this here first.

That aside, I got this game for my B-day, and it's nice. The story is some pretty good mafia stuff, especially about telling the player they never, ever, want to be in the mafia.

The jokes are pretty funny, too, especially for chapter 7. It's also pretty funny the guy who's Phil from Disney's Hercules is probably the biggest fucking source of fucking uses of the word fuck I've ever fucking seen. Two words, fuck.

Health is a bit different than I've seen: You can recover part of your health over time, but to get full health, you need to eat/drink. Unfortunately, I've only seen two instances where something to snack on is around, and you're actually in the middle of a job. Maybe that changes later?

It's also looking like a Really Big Place With A Story and not another GTA. This isn't bad, mind, but I'm on chapter 9, and I've got nothing but story missions.

I'd say rent this first before you buy, but it is good.

lol food is your health pack I get a kick out of that.

I actually think that is worse than leaning up against walls in The Getaway, which also tried to be "realistic".

Anyway, I have heard good things about this game. As for fuck, does it say fuck more than the Scarface game, or haven't you played that one? If they could top Scarface for saying fuck I'd say they have achieved something in fuck-saying-ness.

Perhaps I misunderstood?

I'm not trying to jump on this comment, but haven't there been tons of games that use food as health items? I think I can name a few off the top of my head.

True, I think it may have just been the way he said it. Like in other games it would just be generic "food" item, I can imagine in Mafia 2 it's like, some guy is running through a house shooting bad guys, shoots some guy who's sitting and eating a salad, and then is like "Ooh, a salad! Nom nom nom" and then his health is restored.

At least it's more sanitary than eating a burger you found in the garbage. Or generic meat you found in a brick.

Edit: But do your part to prevent the spread of HIV and make sure the guy hasn't bled on it before you eat that salad.

Funny thing is, it doesn't actually happen like that, really. Those two instances of finding food during a job? That's it. They really could've just made the regenerating health the whole shtick if they weren't gonna leave any food or drink laying around the place.

Also, beat the game. This game wants you to know the Mafia is VEDDY VEDDY BAD. Kojima would be proud. I mean, this game is depressing(Spoiler box ahoy!). The main character loses everything by the end, with only his life being the one thing he owns. His mom's dead, his sister won't have anything to do with him anymore, one of his friends was a federal snitch who got butchered in the literal sense by Triads, everything he got while in the mob was set on fire, and to top it all off, the best friend who just saved your ass on the last mission and has been with you since the start gets killed because he's not "part of the deal" to save your skin. Seriously, holy shit.

This game has more fucks than the current record-holder of swears in a video game. They did indeed achieve something.
