    "According to Kolar, work on Mafia II's script began in 2003—seven years before the game's 2010 release—and developers began pre-production on the title in 2004. Originally, 2K Czech—then known as Illusion Softworks—intended for Mafia II to be a PS2 and Xbox title with a licensed engine for a fast development turnaround, but the engine developer went out of business and the game's development moved to then-next-generation consoles, PS3 and Xbox 360, in 2005. Those two factors proved to be a major setback for Illusion, forcing the studio to work on its own proprietary next-gen engine for Mafia II, and the development team would not have a "Playable something" (whatever that means) until 2007 or 2008."

    "So we almost had it, just create missions, characters...But what happened in 2004, Electronic Arts bought Criterion company, owner of the licenced engine, and the next year EA completely stopped the promised engine development, so the agreement voided, Illusion Softworks didn't licence RenderWare" (Forrás)
