Mafia is a pc original 
It was later ported to consoles.
But you did raise an issue. In most if not all cases I don't mind games being released for both consoles and pc (I do despise console exclusives... corporatism, blegh), but I do expect companies to take the differences between platforms into account when doing so. It's obvious this is necessary when going from pc to console, then why is it so hard to understand otherwise?

Weren't the console versions a lot poorer then the pc one? I've never played the console versions myself, but with the recent announcement of Mafia 2 a lot of such sentiments surfaced everywhere 
They were so so from what I hear too, the pc version is the way to go, always prefer mouse control to pad control, especially in a 3rd person shooter like this one, but Mafia is indeed superb, hugely underrated and a shame didn't get more exposure, and I can't wait to play Mafia 2, hoping its also as awesome as the first.
