That coupon should be good for both (Mafia II and Just Cause 2) downloads, not just one or the other. If your asking which game is better, I got the same coupon a week ago and have not stopped playing JC2. It is one of the most fun games I've played.

Agreed. Go with JC2. It's awesome, especially if you have an X360 controller.

I'd say Just Cause 2, BUT I have not played Mafia 2. I am simply recommending a game that I can see myself having more insane fun with. The visuals are stunning, and the gameplay is solid. I'm only up to about the 4th story mission, but it's already going in a completely different direction from what I thought. I might go for 100% at some point. Just so addicting. Plus, in order to advance the game by unlocking new story missions, you need to gain chaos, aka blow stuff up. So free roaming and blowing stuff up is actually how to go from mission to mission. It's so simple, yet so fun.

JC2.

Got mafia 2 as a present and didn't even get 30 mins in the game.

Really annoying FOV that gives me a massive headache.

I'm about to DL the Mafia 2 demo, but I'd recommend JC2. The grappling hook and the parachute really changed the GTA sandbox that I was used to. Those two mechanics alone made it a much more fun sandbox experience for me.

Neither.
I got Just Cause 2 for free, I honestly have to say that it was the worst game I've ever played through.
Please don't make me endure that hell again.

Just Cause is way better!
