    Question Where buy Betrayal of Jimmy for PC?

    I'd like to buy DLC Betrayal of Jimmy for PC version of Mafia 2, but I don't know where. I've found DLC pack, where are all DLCs including Betrayal of Jimmy, but it makes no sense buying same DLC again, so I want to buy standalone Betrayal of Jimmy.
    Thanks

    What country do you live in? For example, here in Canada, I'm not aware of any complete DLC pack for PC that includes Betrayal of Jimmy.

    I would also like to purchase Betrayal of Jimmy for PC (on Steam), if it was available. It's kind of weird to play the second half of Jimmy's story, Jimmy's Vendetta, without playing the first half first

    I'm from the Czech Republic (Europe), DLC pack with all released DLC's is available, but I've already bought Jimmi's Vendeta, so I don't want to pay for it again

    For 2K (Elizabeth, maybe?)

    I have actually bought EVERYTIHING including small DLCs, and I do not really want to pay 35 more dollars just for Betrayal of Jimmy... However, I really want the game, so what are the options? Will you release it on Steam any time soon? Thank you for answer

    Right now Betrayal is only available in certain PC editions in Czech Republic, Poland, and Russia - check out your retailer for what they have in stock. We don't have plans, at this time, for it to be available beyond these editions but if and when we do - I'll let you know!

    Thank you. So another question - do those editions have some special activation number, or is it a pack of numbers? I am asking because if it is a single number, I would waste the other 6 DLCs if I activate it on my current account.

    Were 2k forced legally to release it in those countries? if not, why isn't it released every where?

    No - that doesn't make any sense. I don't have the exact reasons for why we release in every country and on every platform, but I know a lot of you guys do want this and I've already told the team about it!

    I can never understand why some companies make exclusive titles, especially on the one platform?

    You'd think they'd want to maximise sales by making it universally available?

    Having said that, it's really no big loss.

    The Betrayal of Jimmy is almost identical to Jimmy's Vendetta.

    It kinda explains Jimmy's story, but there wasn't much of a story to begin with!

    It's basically the same arcade nonsense, repeated ad-nauseum.

    ^^ 1 or 2 cutscenes, i believe? haven't bought it, so i don't know.
    i agree, though. there's people who are willing to support the DLC market. why is a mystery to me, but it's not my money, so it's fine when people enjoy the content. the least a company could do, is to make sure that it's made available for everybody. i hate 360 or ps3 exclusive titles, but country limitations are bizarre.

    I'm going to have a wild guess here, but the only reason I can see for releasing it in a few select countries is licensing?

    The Betrayal of Jimmy was a PS3 exclusive title, and maybe there are Sony licensing/agreement issues that aren't valid in those countries?

    I really can't think of any other reason why they would do this.

    I would imagine, and hope, that this Special Edition will be available globally soon?

    @ InsideYours, empty your PM box, it's about to explode from being too full.

    Oh, sorry for that then. I am from one of the countries having Spacial Extended Edition (Czech Republic).

    I have Mafia 2 for xbox 360. It would be nice because TBOJ focuses on missions involving the Chinese Triads, and black Bombers (The African American street gang that hangs out at The lone star) Missions involving those gangs in the main story were few and far behind. Whereas JV focuses on yet more Irish and Italian missions which the main story was stuffed with. In addition TBOJ has an exclusive hotrod, and one of the starting text screens has boobies on it from what ive seen from screenshots.

    If you go to http://store.steampowered.com/app/50146/?cc=RU, you can see the TBOJ download page. Obviously, you wont be able to purchase it unless you're in Russia. (You can substitute RU with other codes that it has been released in as well)

    I think its only a matter of time until it is available in the other regions imo

    Yea I would even go as far as shelling another 800 MS points out (for the third time BTW) if it made me feel like Mafia 2 is a "complete package".

    Ive seen a couple of walkthroughs for it on youtube and from what I seen, it looks WAY cooler than Jimmy's Vendetta, and about the same on terms of quality as Joe's Adventures. (which I liked.)

    I think its about as close to Jimmy's vendetta as you can get,It has a cut scene at the begining and the end.
    Only thing that might make it better is the hotrod.
    I do see what you mean though,there is something satisfying about having the "complete" game.
