The Mafia series is arguably one of 2K's lesser appreciated franchises. First released in 2002, the series has seen three entries so far. Though the first two games are held in high regard, the third entry was considered a step down. According to Korean and Taiwanese games rating boards, fans …

Mafia III had a rough launch back in October 2016, the game didn't quite live up graphically and performance on PC at launch was abysmal, with a 30 frames per second cap right out of the gate. Now just over a year from launch, the studio behind the game has …
