    That might be a possibility, since it's very cinematic, I think that it would work to their advantage to make it, I know that I would personally love it, driving in the snow and crap lol

    It would be cool to have some snow in the game, but I don't think it will happen! It's possible to have snow in a game, we've seen it before, but after all it's up to 2K Czech if they want to implement such feature in their game or not.

    It would be lovely to see some seasonal changes in the game, the snow one would be of particular interest since it would make cars a little bit more difficult to handle as would wet tarmac with rain.

    Hehe not really, as I don`t expect there to be different seasons, as far as I can tell the screens seems pretty much the same in that respect.
    But driving is such a big part of the game (I assume) so it would be a natural issue to address if it happened to be the case there would be various seasons.

    Yeah I do also think that driving is a big part of the game, and I also think that there will be different seasons, perhaps in the different chapters...?

    Magazines in Australia are like $20-$30 too damn much.

    Can't agree, its global ... every big discover is usually first written on paper :-)

    And, god ... Australia seems to be kind of games-unfriendly country :-D

    Im sure different daytimes will be in it, cos if GTA has it, then Mafia has to have it, simple as that.

    This is what I wanted to hear!!! Now it seems that the game is really complex and looks like that the 6 years of development were/are needed.

    That sounds great! I hope we wont be needing snow mod again :P
    Imagine beeing four seasons in Mafia. Spring with all nature bursting into life, summer with hot sun, autummn when leaves from the tress fall on the ground, and then winter with the Christmass spirit going on to the city streets...if something like this is implemented into Mafia 2 it would be so realistic and exciting. Of course this requires a very long story, with lot's of missions...because in order to feel the four seasons you must play alot and feel like the years are passing by...

    In that quote it is said that the seasons will change with game's progress, so I guess it will look like the 1st 3 missions will be happening during Summer let's say, then some cut scene with memories, and next 3 missions we're doing during Autumn.

    I knew that they would be in there, since this game has character written all over it. Well Done Devs :P

    I personally very curious how driving will be in the rain, will it be semi-realistic or not.
