This game is baed on the famous movie The Godfather. You play a young man whose father is killed by a rival mob boss. You join the corleone family and you work your way up the ranks. You build up and your character as you do missons and various tasks. You play through out the city even take some trips to brooklyn and jersety. There are business that you take over to increase the money you make. All the while increasing your respect so that you can build up your character. The one thing you will notice about this game is that you will die.. a lot. There are times where the enemies will basically over power you and kill you. A new feature to this game is the ability to call in a four man team to help you out with the more difficult missions. They end up killing everybody so be careful because sometimes you need to speak to people. The graphics on this game are not much better then on the other systems. I really think that this game is a lot of fun. Running around doing missions and shooting people in a video game can be fun like GTA. Part of the problem with this game is that there is nothing new here. Its the same game done over with a slight tweak on the graphics. The music here is nothing special and the driving can be a pain. There is not give here so unless you have enough space you will be crashing and spinning around and such. Fighting is interesting in this game in that you can beat guys up easily sometimes and then sometimes you cannot. Shooting is simple with the usual press the button on the enemy and firing. The game tends to have you run out of ammo at the best times as well as reloading when you are in the middle of a fire fight. Wonderful I know. No new missions nothing really new here so I suggest skipping this one unless you have not played this game on any other system. Even so its still a lot of fun.
