K&L2 though, killed the guys in the restaurant, ran through some streets and killed a few others, it was over in like 10 minutes, if that. Shortest demo I've ever played. And for over 1GB download as well!
The difference, I guess, is Mafia 2 has a story that everyone already knows. I love 50's America, I love the cars and the music, and I have seen, and enjoyed, almost every Mafia film there is (this may not actually be true, but I've seen a lot!). So, I feel almost familiar with the game before it's even released and therefore want it, regardless of the hype.
K&L2 doesn't grip me anywhere near as much as Mafia 2, it just looks interesting.
