Mafia 2's Platinum UPSET ME but it's STILL INCREDIBLE

[@juchs]

The Playboy mags def the best part of this game, as a kid I had to keep the door closed while playing through this and it wasn't for the violence. Also the soundtracks of the franchise are unmatched, also, every wanted poster is a game dev from 2K Czech, pretty cool fact

[@itsstuddy]

hahaha yeah as a kid collecting those playboys was stressful lol.. had to make sure no one would see me lmao

[@zoubeirfaouzi149]

Hahahaha collect them boobies 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@gr-8166]

As a kid I legit closed my eyes as a good Christian. 😁 Then I continued being a smooth criminal with the murder and robbery. 🥸

[@Beencheeling]

2K is the worst of the worst, the game had such potential but because of 2k it got all into the drain, it all was gone since we could have had the game in 2011 or 2012 and be a absolute blast but it still is, just not as much emersion as we had hoped for

[@marcusbrown188]

I always thought this was strange because parents are ok with ending lives but looking at beauty to want to start life is wrong?

[@demonbadger86]

I've played Mafia 2 a bunch of times across different platforms and, for whatever reason, I've never been able to get Leo out of that house without getting caught. Also, the only hard section is the gunfight at Derek's docks. I never knew the way to cheat that part.

[@dankmemebunny]

I dont know about the remaster but you can get into a car, drive into the water and when it resets the garage door closes and Dereks office is open. You can easily just hide and shoot from in there.

[@S1lverArr0w]

There's 3 ways to escape Leo's Mansion in Chapter 11, one of which I JUST used for the first time yesterday lol. First is the one you do for the the Trophy; use the bathroom sheets and escape down rear balcony. 2nd, escape through the kitchen; there's a side door that leads out to the Garage. 3rd, escaping through the front door; incapacitate the guard then use the Ascot Bailey to escape through the front gates. And yes, Chapter 14 on Hard Diff is insanity, especially with Derek's molotov's having pinpoint accuracy. You can use the car method to cheese it but doing it legit, best method is to hide behind the metal pillar on the left. The molotovs can't get you at the right angle. The rest is trial and error...ALOT of it😂😂

[@TheJeffrey75]

Bro i got lucky and walked right into the room with bed sheets clicked x and it was over. Literally a 30 sec mission lol

[@Eastern_European_Farming]

I just stayed in the room with him, waiting for Henry Tomasino to come in & save Leo.

[@PIayboy]

Ur content is so much higher quality than what you’d expect the sub count to be , keep going man I can see you doing really well this year

[@itsstuddy]

I appreciate that!

[@dblundz]

I actually reallly liked Mafia 3. The open world was mix but I liked the story/characters. Combat was solid too

[@kylerogers7564]

Agreed, the story made it well worth me getting the 100%.

[@SebCarrasco]

Mafia 3’s world building is top notch! The way the devs weave in real history is fantastic, and the narrative framing is quite creative,

[@japkylcz748]

Mafia 3 is terrible, i mean i had fun playing the game but its not as good as mafia 2

[@thomasjefferson233]

Mafia 3 has the best collectibles in all of gaming . And they’re not required for the platinum like mafia 2 😭

[@nikgeric6161]

You cant compare the story to other mafias, its too repetetive and the characters arent nearly as good

[@Los_da_gamer]

I just got platinum for this yesterday and the worst trophy by far is the one requiring you to collect all 189 wanted posters. This trophy wouldn't be so bad if there was an in-game guide showing you how to reach each poster but of course, considering how old this game is, it's not a surprise no guide was within the structure of the game.

[@itsstuddy]

yeah the posters are a pain in the ass

[@marquisecollins2122]

I agree I only need the poster for the platinum

[@TheDonMobster]

IMPORTANT: If you haven’t already started progress on Mafia 3, DO NOT close the app when going for the trophies, it’s been bugged since launch and it has a chance of resetting trophy progress… I learnt the hard way since I had to do 4-6 playthroughs to get the trophy (it should only take 2 playthroughs) it would be way easier and less painful if they fixed it… some people are lucky, most people aren’t.. so don’t close game mid playthrough! Beat the game, get the trophies and take a break before starting the second playthrough. Good luck.

[@TheDonMobster]

I’ve just read your comment from another thread… hope you get the trophy first time! If not.. welcome to what was my hell for a week. This plat really is a pain despite not having collectibles…

[@itsstuddy]

ermmm wtf.. so because of a bug, I may have to keep the game open for the 50-70 hours it takes to platinum that game?!?!?! WOW.. they really dropped the ball big time with Mafia 3 trophies but thanks for the heads up!

[@Kingy1872]

I died on the kill Olivia marcano mission and it soft locked me in the loading screen what’s even worse is that she was the last one I had to Kill and I had done all the dlc, I was raging and I haven’t touched the game since, thinking abt going back and playing it again though

[@matteodelapaz1698]

@@Kingy1872I had to shut off internet starting the judge mission

Congrats on the platinum and great video as always, i recently got the mafia 1 platinum and i’m really proud of myself for beating that race on classic 😂

[@Number90771]

Keep up the grind only found your channel a month ago and you deserve way more recognition for what you do keep it up ❤

[@itsstuddy]

Appreciate i my guy!

[@Osyde]

Just got to say this. You are such an underrated content creator and i love ur videos, thanks to you i've tried Mafia 2 and Yesterday i platinumed It so thank u really man ❤️

[@SebCarrasco]

To address graphical fidelity: Mafia Definitive edition is a ground up remake, whereas Mafia 2 is just a QOL remaster Mafia 3 has some brutal stealth mechanics and some fun tools! I would highly recommend doing the DLC expansions when the world opens up because you get some amazing items from completing them…they’re also quite unique and definitely add to the Definitive definition of Mafia 3!

[@itsstuddy]

ah I see.. I did wonder why Mafia 1 & 2 only came out 4-5 months apart but looked years different

[@ethanvardy3379]

Recently found your videos a few days ago and have been hooked ever since, can’t wait to see how the channel grows mate

[@itsstuddy]

Cheers bro! Appreciate that!

[@AnekoF90]

The problem with mafia 2 platinum is Jimmy Vendetta DLC, it is grindy as fuck.

[@acgamer1916]

But it’s a dlc, wich means you don’t need to play it, neither do you need to own it in order to unlock platinum

[@maszn07]

Can't wait to watch this, one of my favourite games of all time. EDIT: Such a good video, can't wait for the mafia 3 plat!

[@strangelifeform4467]

I hope you have good luck with the Mafia 3 plat. I don’t know if the definitive edition fixed the trophy pops but that is one plat I don’t have from the 3 games for a reason.

[@Scarboi2021]

I like mafia 3 alot and like the fact you can renivate sammy's bar with the way of the times dlc as it adds to the emotion of the dlc already has

[@kylemacdonald4839]

I have been loving your videos recently, when I see you got mafia I went back and cleared it up now I am currently working on the mafia 2 also. Great to see you beat me the platinum 😂, Keep up the good work man 👍.

[@obi-wankenobi917]

Why couldn’t there have been 189 playboys and 50 wanted posters

[@itsstuddy]

hahahahahaahah that would of been wild

[@monstereye1523]

Congrats on platinum. Keep up the grind.

[@maxm.m.7219]

Fun fact: Joe actually didn't die, as he shows up at the end of Maffia III, being Leo Galante's driver.

got all the achievements when the DE came out. man i hated collecting all the wanted posters in the original game, so i hoped they would remove them in the DE, but no, they didn't...they even added 30 more

[@RedRightStrawHat]

The only thing I hated about this plat was those wanted posters, man was it a drag to get all those plus you get more on the definitive version.

One of my favourite games. I remember playing it so so much when I was younger. Great video

[@azambamovies]

Waiting for that MAFIA 3 platinum after this!!!

[@rady151cz]

I want to clarify the graphics here, Mafia 1 DE was a ground-up REMAKE released in 2020, whereas Mafia 2 DE is only a REAMASTER, it's still a 2010's game but with better textures (it looks better than the original Mafia 2). Mafia 3 DE isn't any of those things, it's just a Mafia 3 released in 2016 but with all of the DLCs, no visual upgrade here.

[@davianplayz534]

Actually going for this platinum right now this is my favorite game I am 4 trophy’s away.

[@kruvik]

You guys on PlayStation have it so easy with your base game and DLC separated trophies/platinums. I just finished mine (original version) on Steam and it took about 80 hours because of those God forsaken DLCs... Truly painful this completion.

[@muaz3787]

Im almost 40 hours in and done with all achievements except for jimmys vendetta and few main story trophies, i have a feeling Jimmy's vendetta will test my patience

[@kruvik]

@@muaz3787 It surely will... Good luck!

[@PublishedLeaf]

How did you do the jimmy driving one. I try but every few hours my game crashes and I all my progress gets lost

[@kruvik]

@@PublishedLeaf I did the glitch where you fall out of the map for 4+ hours. My game didn't crash - maybe try lowering your settings or something?

@kruvik I did that glitch as well. 33 hours in total. 8 times. Mafia trilogy is one of my favorites but the achievements are B's Lmao

[@rampagejack5815]

After watching this video makes me want to play the mafia games not because of the trophy itself just the mafia games are the best and can’t wait for the new one next year

[@JohnBFromNC]

So If you are looking for a new series to tackle for Platinums, might I recommend the Yakuza franchise. It's my personal favorite series in all of gaming. Naturally that means starting with Yakuza 0 which is great and I would bet my heart that the writing in the Yakuza franchise is among the very best in gaming. I hope you give the franchise a shot even if it doesn't turn out to be your kinda series. Take care and good luck Plat hunting!

[@itsstuddy]

hmmm okay.. what style of games are they? In terms of difficulty and learning curve, as "souls" type games I am awful at and can never finish

[@JohnBFromNC]

@@itsstuddy they aren't anything remotely close to Souls hard so don't worry on that front, I am no good at the Souls games either. The Yakuza Series of games are all an open world beat'em up, with an amazing story. I think Matt McMuscles once described the series combat gameplay as a 3D Streets of Rage & I honestly can't describe it better. The combat is pretty straightforward, with heat action special moves, weapons & combos but you can get by with simply button mashing. It's entirely up to you how complicated you want to get, which is nice for me who is bad at fighting games. But it's not just the story & fighting as there are the side activities & minigames like Karaoke, bowling, pool, the Cabaret club & the classic SEGA arcade games & more. Really the best way to understand the franchise is to just jump into Yakuza 0. You can get it pretty cheap as it's in the PlayStation Hits set, and if you have PS+, it's in the Extra tier as are Yakuza Kiwani 1 & 2 the remake of the first 2 games.

[@KyleDevy]

​@@itsstuddy dude, they may be some of the funniets, drama filled, entertaining blockbuster games ever made. Once you play Yakuza 0, you'll be hooked. And they're made to be platinumed.

Yeah graphics for sure dropped, but gameplay still feels solid! I reckon Mafia 3 is gonna be TOUGH!

[@SerousDizL]

Chapter 11 warn leo, the gate won’t open.. any suggestions?

[@itsstuddy]

happened to me bro, here's what you have to do sadly. Delete all save data, delete the game off console, re-download and start all over again. I'm kidding, you should be able to just load last checkpoint/last save and quit off the game, might take 2-4 tries but it should work
