User Rating: 8.8 | The Godfather X360
The Godfather for XBOX 360 is heads and tails better than the original for the XBOX and PS2. Besides the graphical improvements which are good but still not overwhelmingly good to be able to compare them to most other next gen games. The gameplay is addictive and immersing. Yes it the standard GTA style fighting but with a better joy stick driven hand to hand combat. The Godfather lets you play in the 1940's world of The Godfather series, which is a italian mafia drama that if you haven't seen then I'm pretty sure you don't have a DVD player or cable. (That means no satelite either) Equip yourselft with historic weapons like the Tommy Gun and then upgrade it to the dillinger. There is also nothing quite as satisfying as the hats off execution where the player shoots the enemy through the chin taking the hat off as well as....you know...winning the battle of life and death, or the equally satisfying move of throwing someone into a furnace or off a 3 story building. The enviroment, or universe is perfect. It's GTA meets everyone's favorite 1970s movie with more to do. The gameplay is what you would expect with more. The stroy is taken from the movie and added to putting you in key situations from the first film. But the feature of extorting buisnesses and taking over rackets is the best thing about this game. It gives you so much to do outside the story and gives the game that much more of what game developers call "it". The graphics are the main disappointment in this game. The sometimes blocky objects and the clouded vehicle windows. They tend to get overlooked most of the time so it doesn't hurt THAT much but it still would be nice to have transparent windows and a little more touched up enviroments.This is also teh only game I have experienced lag in that I wasn't playing online but when i restarted the console it went away and I never saw it again. In the end it is a updated GTA set in The Godfather Universe, and its an unforgettable experience of reliving the movies.
