A great game for a great movie

User Rating: 8.9 | The Godfather PS2
Face it. You've all seen the movies, repeated the lines and treasured the Corleones for a lifetime. No doubt The Godfather was a great movie for its tremendous look at crime and mobster life. The Game echoes the movie in just about every sense. You are completely immersed in the Godfather world with weapons, cars and all your favorite characters. The game pits you as a child who gets taken in under the Corleones wing. You must work your way from outsider to Don and finally Don of NYC. The characters for the most part are exact duplicates of their on-screen counterparts. You will recognize several scenes from the movie that have been recreated in the game, they even provide real footage from the movie incorporated in Film Reels. With the sheer amount of things to do in this game, you would of expected a bigger choice of cars, and a few more highly powered weapons. Some of the driving missions begin to drain when you become frustrated from not understanding or not being able to keep on track while being crashed into from rival gangsters, but with the sheer amount of things to do, this game will entertain for a long time to come.
