Of course, homicidal driving in 3D isn’t the sole reason you’ll want to pick upMafia II....

In a vacuum, I like this lineup, but for anyone who got a “free” copy ofDays Gonewith their PS5 through thePlayStation Plus Collectionpromo, it’s a retread. Of course, there’s a lot to like with this open-world romp – more than people were initially thinking – and it’s ameatygame....
