The Godfather - Xbox

An offer you most definitely cannot refuse

I bought this game the day it came out, and finished it pretty much a day and a half later (hey I had classes, gimme a break). Four of my friends also purchased the game the same day as I did, and, between the five of us, we gave pretty good reviews. First off, I have to say, if you have never seen The Godfather movies, then I can understand why you would be mad at this game. The point of the game was not to be a GTA copy, although it does mimic Grand Theft Auto in the scheme of the game, such as the missions and safehouses aspects. Some of my friends who watched me play complained that there wasn't enough action, and were upset that the game didn't include a prostitute segment, like in Vice City and San Andreas. Basically, they were mad that my character wasn't getting any. That didnt bother me, because I bought the game for the movie aspect of it. I loved how they integrate your character into the most famous scenes from the movie. The Luca Brasi murder scene, the Michael Corleone shooting of Solozzo and McKluskey, the whacking of Don Barzini on the steps of the courthouse. Incredible. Making Barzini responsible for your father's death gives the game a personal feel as well. While climbing up the ranks of the Corleone family, you feel as though you're just being groomed for taking revenge on Barzini. When the time comes, Barzini says "I knew it would be you" and then you avenge your father's death. Again, I get excited with these kind of games because I'm a fan of the movie....I own the DVD collection and my room is covered in posters. lol If you're a mob movie fan, then The Godfather is for you. If you're more a GTA fan and rely on beating up hookers and homeless people for your fun, then you might not want to get this game.

The Godfather - Xbox

not what it seems like

so i'm sure that just about sure that everyone has seen the awesome commercial for the godfather. it looks like one of the best games of the year right. WRONG . just like the commercial the game actually does have good graphics. the guns look good, the shooting is awesome, and the few cars that there actually are are excellently detailed. oh yeah, and you can create your own mobster as they say on the case. it's o.k. well, let me tell you about the rest of the game. oh yeah, there isn't anything else. there's like 10 guns on the whole game. there pretty cool at first, but they really do get boring. the driving on the game is just plain horrible. and the fighting gets old really quick. so don't be fooled by the cool commercial, don't buy this game, just wait and buy it from your friend that doesn't read my review.
