Repetitive, looks and feels like a crappy console port.

User Rating: 4.5 | The Godfather PC
By gurusigma | Review Date:
Too bad... I was really looking forwards to this game as I loved the movies. Even though the storyline and theme are much like the movies, a crappy gameplay completely ruined the fun.

Not only the game is extremely repetitive, but it looks and feels just like a letdown version of GTA in the 30's. Sad, sad, sad. That, and the graphics... I was really expecting much more from EA!

The in-game characters all behave in the same exact way (except for the NPCs), there is no variety. Plus, they bug on my system! They will run for no reason even if my heat and vendetta levels are low... or they will suddenly all gather round me and look stupid. The game still has tons of glitches from a crappy programming...

All in all, I'm giving it a so/so rating only because I love the theme song.
