This game, though, adds so much more. It has all the cool things from the Godfather Trilogy whether it's carrying out a hit on a rival family, paying bribes to G-Men and cops, or influencing store and hotel owners that they need your protection for a fee. You can go along with what the agenda is or you can go and try to obtain more businesses and racketeering ventures. And what's really cool about the game is that for each time you kill a member of a rival family, they keep a vendetta out on you.
If you kill too many members of the same family, then a mob war starts. The only way to end the mob war and win anyway is to bribe a G-Men or bomb a r ival business within 48 hours time goes by rather quickly though, it's not really 48 real hours, more like 48 minutes if even that.
The only gripe I had was the controls are a little goofy to get used to for a newbie when you're fighting it kind of reminds me of Fight Night, the boxing video game. But I got used to it, and now it's no big deal at all. Dollar for dollar, there aren't too many games that are as good as The Godfather.
The storyline is exceptional, and there are so many things to do. It even lets you create yourself as a crime thug I'm a longhaired hippie and it won't let me have long hair-minor bummer and you work yourself up the family ladder. I bought The Game and thought that game was pretty good, but that almost stinks when compared to this game. I liked the storyline on 24, but the options and gameplay on The Godfather are much much better, it's just way more fun sometimes too fun, real time hours go by too fast when you play this game, warning to significant others.
I reviewed 24 a couple months ago and now I wish I hadn't given it such a good review after playing this game. If you're a fan of the Godfather Trilogy, you'll absolutely love this game. If you're not familiar with the series I would say "If you're not a fan", but that would be absurd. I mean if you're reading this, you can't dislike the movies unless you just dislike Godfather 3 , you'll get to be a character in the movie but in game form. Parents should be cautioned with this game. It's violent and the language might not suit young ears.
Otherwise, I know you'll love this game. It's unique gameplay and storyline will give you hours and hours of enjoyment. Read full review. I loved this game more than expected, most major reviews like gameinformer etc. Before you start you can change your characters clothes or get a new look on your whole entire body. The fighting style in this title is actually pretty cool compared to most games.
To fight instead of using the buttons you use the right analog stick like in Fight Night this method is much faster and easier than punching in buttons.
The graphics are standard XBOX graphics. The gameplay is well done and the storey line is beautiful. If you are a fan of the Godfather then is a must. You will get to relive the godfather on your XBOX. Ovarall it is a really good game. It exceeded my expectations. Great game that adds on to the movies storyline and does a good job at it to. Great freelncing with extorting and hit contracts, great story line.
The game really makes you interested in the families and gets you hooked through all of the open end ways you can play. You can slam ppls heads on the table, or any scenery, can slam ppl up againsst walls, very cool execution styles to master with guns or melee. Skip to main content. About this product.

That's been fixed fairly well this time around with the addition of the Hit Squad and crew members. Whether it's a single man at your side or an entire gang of mobsters, both allow you to take on other families with an army of guns. It's pretty cool to be able to march into a rival compound with four other guys around you, all of you laying down machinegun fire and laying waste to the grounds.
They also both help give your money an actual sense of purpose as it didn't do much more than buy new safe houses or pay people off last time around.
The game's upgrade system has been expanded a bit. There are now eight different skills divided into two groups of overarching styles, Enforcer and Operator.
There isn't a definitive order that you need to use, but once you hit 15 and 30 total points spent in either group, you'll earn a new ability. For instance, once you've spent 30 points amongst any of the four enforcer skills, you unlock unlimited ammunition for all guns. A problem with the original release was that too many areas felt copied-and-pasted, creating a fair bit of repetition after a while. This has been remedied here in a number of ways.
Firstly, there are now a number of sections that take place on rooftops, helping expand the many, somewhat bland indoor areas. More importantly though, each of the families have a unique compound that they call home, forcing you to use a different plan of attack for each one. Additionally, there are two new transportation hubs to be found and taken over, namely a freighter and a train yard. While these hubs and the compounds are but a tiny portion of the overall game, they do well to help provide a few more unique scenarios and make it feel a little more fresh.
So while they're not groundbreaking in any way, they do add a bit to the experience. Aside from these main additions, there are a handful of other tweaks and such to the game that help make the overall experience stronger, but don't do much on their own. For instance, Mobface has been expanded a little bit to offer more options, you're able to set car bombs, Mob Wars can now trigger rival families to bomb and temporarily shut down your businesses and such.
Again, while none of these are exactly selling points for the game, they all do add up to make the overall package a little more engaging. It's nice to see that EA has been able to provide upgrades that actually affect gameplay rather than just provide a spot for a bullet point on a press release. Unfortunately, while most of the game's main aspects have been expanded upon or tweaked, the graphics have not.
The Godfather was a reasonable-looking game on the PlayStation 2, but its visuals are simply poor for a next-generation title. Other than the high-definition output, it doesn't look like anything has been noticeably changed. Texture resolution is pretty bad, some of the effects are very last-gen the specular highlights on vehicles point out their polygon make-up, for instance and it really does look like you're playing a PS2 game in HD.
One thing that really couldn't have easily been fixed without a complete rework is the world layout, which is still rather frustrating. Many sections of the world are only accessible via one street, which means you must constantly reference the pause menu's map the in-game map simply isn't situated far enough above the city.
While the game does offer enough side stuff to make it feel non-linear and truly open, the fact that you often have to go on a specific route does give it a bit of a constrained feeling.
Regardless of that, there's still a decent bit of fun to be had here. The story is strong enough to get sucked into, even if it isn't all that long, and there's a lot of stuff to do on the side.
Extorting businesses and such is more rewarding this time around due to all of the small additions made here and there, like how the money actually has value now, so taking over barbershops and such can be fairly addicting.
Verdict The Godfather: The Don's Edition is a strong and rather noticeable improvement over the original release, though much of it does feel outdated on the PlayStation 3. EA has done a great job of expanding nearly every facet of the game, and even though only a few of these additions change the game in major ways, the overall package is a good deal better.
Still, with last-gen visuals, a frustrating city layout and other issues that plagued the original release, it's still far from perfect. But if you haven't played any of the previous releases, it's certainly worth a look. Was this article informative?
