    Some compelling evidence that we just can't fuhgeddabout has surfaced over on Amazon, suggesting a re-release of Mafia 2 impends. As you can see in the cover art above, Mafia 2: Director's Cut for PS3, PC, and Xbox 360 includes the original game and some additional DLC: three story packs and four car and clothes packs. The story packs are most likely Joe's Adventures, Jimmy's Vendetta and The Betrayal of Jimmy, while the car and clothes packs sound like those retailer pre-order exclusives that were later offered separately. We've contacted 2K Games for comment. [Thanks, No Name]

    The third DLC pack for Mafia 2, entitled "Joe's Adventures," will open up more of Empire Bay on November 23. It'll set back wannabe wiseguy types a cool $10 across the board -- $9.99 on PSN and 800 MS Points ($10) on Xbox Live and Windows PC. Now, we know what you're thinking: sorry, it's not about how Joe had a falling out with Mac, found himself frozen for centuries only to be thawed out in Empire Bay and within the employ of the mob. In fact it's about Joe Barbaro, protagonist Vito Scaletta's best friend, and follows the events of Joe's life while Vito finds himself in prison. While the former sounds amazing, if there's one thing Encino Man taught us, it's that recently thawed cavemen are too pre-occupied with wheezin' the juice to commit any crimes. %Gallery-105827%

    Mafia 2's third major piece of downloadable content will be "Joe's Adventures," available on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC later this year. Take-Two will announce pricing and an exact date at a later time. The DLC will expand the story of Joe Barbaro in the crime epic by ... wait -- "Joe's Adventures?" Madonn' that's a clunker! You chose that over "Barbaro's Badda-bing Bash?" C'mon! Oh, you want more? How about "Barbaro Shop 2: Back in Business" ... or "The Barbaro of Empire Bay?" Heck, "Joe the Barbaro-ian" is better than "Joe's Adventures." At least spice it up a bit -- make it "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure" or something. No, wait -- that's taken. Okay, we got! "Barbaroella." Done. %Gallery-102457%
