I purchased Mafia 2 which is presently on sale on GOG for $7.99 (with all DLC). I have a WIN10 machine and I keep getting an "Installation Failed" error. Has anyone else seen that and know how to deal with that? Thank you.

I see you followed up in the Game subforum here:

https://www.gog.com/forum/mafia/mafia_ii/post13

You may want to start your own thread over there instead of posting in someone else's thread.

You may want to explain the steps you followed while trying to install. Are you using the stand alone installer? Galaxy? Your computer's specs. I suggest that as they seem to be rather high for this game.

Usually most folks here try to install games outside of Galaxy. If you;ve not tried that, you may want to consider it.

Maybe someone else will have some suggestions.

a simple solution to that problem there is:

1. try to get your money back, throgh a cashback for example, cause gog doesn't give a shit bout selling broken stuff

2. buy the game somewhere else, where its not broken, like steam

3. never buy on gog again
I just downloaded & installed it, using the galaxy-free installer, and had no problems with it.

Have you managed to get it working yet, Joe?
Still an issue in 2023. Obviously GoG don't GAF.

I never had issue downloading Mafia 2. Are you downloading from website or Galaxy?

I was able to install it. Maybe you take the time explaining what you did? After all it could be a user error if it worked for others.
Write GOG a ticket and also mention how you tried to install it. They can't fix what they don't know to be broken.
It's a galaxy issue currently happening to every game that weights more than 2 GB...
