...and an avid supporter of the Godfather Trilogy, it would have been rude not to buy this game in my opinion! As well as that; because I bought the game on the weekend after it was released I was lucky enough to get a special edition tin case with it, styled to be like a coffin for your game with faux silk lining and a nice black finish! Apart from undying love for everything Godfather, I was certain this would be sure fire hit after absolutely adoring ...

Disadvantages: some bad cars, not too great graphics

...games seems to be on the rise with Reservoir Dogs also released, but most of them haven't been that good. But Godfather is a game which seems to be as good as GTA: Vice City or may be a little better than that especially in the gameplay. Based on the 1972 movie Godfather, this game didn't sound too good and I never came to know about this one until I played it a few months ago. In the beginning, I felt that this one is just a copy of the game Mafia, ...

Advantages: Amazing graphics, follows the film, non-linear gameplay
Disadvantages: None

The Godfather is simply a fantastic game. Unlike most other film adaptions, this is high quality. In the game, you play a minor character who is present at all the focal points of the film, i.e. the assassination of Don Corelone, the killing of Sollazzo, the meeting of Michael etc. This means that fans of the film get to feel as if they are part of the whole experience, and it helps to move the game along quite fluidly. Another neat aspect is not ...
...the exception of Al Pacino who plays Michael, but the characters are the exact replica of the characters, so Robert Duvall makes an apperance as Tom Hagan for example. The voice acting is not only limited to cutscenes designed to move the story along, but also when you speak to the characters. The gameplay is very much like GTA with your character driving around the city of New York killing enemy gang members, picking up weapons and extorting businesses. ... Read review
