Did I hear you right? mafia = 2nd best game ever???

tsktsktsk. No sir it is not. I have completed both san andreas and mafia (actually i completed all the GTA's) and I find all GTA's far more replayable (deus ex was/is an amazing game but is not as replayable). The only reason I bothered to finish Mafia was because I enjoyed the storyline.

Some speculation from a few pc game magazines are saying that the new GTA will be far less comical in appearance and a lot truer to the real grime, hustle and bustle of the big city. That might be from the video.

At least they are exploring a different cultural background for the criminals than the cliche'd hip hop artist or mafioso. Makes a nice change. In fact, in that repect, isn't it a unique game? Don't think i've ever seen a game attempt to look into the far less glorified world of the modern immigrant (can't remember if the character was mentioned as being an illegal immigrant or not).
I always thought they'd try shifting location. Maybe the Chinese triads?

Anyways, I'm lookin forward to it.
