Pros: This game plays a lot like the first one did. Some additions and improvements, but otherwise it is a pretty linear continuation of the first Godfather game.
Cons: Graphics are OK but not spectacular. Gameplay can get somewhat repetitive, but then the first one was the same way. The vehicles in this game are dogs, driving really is not much fun, and I'm pretty sure even the very worst of the worst 1940s cars could handle a turn better. Sometimes it feels like you are trying to take corners in the Titanic; the darn vehicles just WILL NOT turn! The handbrake helps but not enough.
Other Thoughts: Should have been more time invested in the looks of this game, but what can you do? I enjoyed playing through it, don't feel like it was a waste of money personally, but now it is in a drawer and will never come out again. Replay value is non-existent. I gave the game four eggs because if you played the first Godfather you will pretty much know what you are getting with this one. I might have knocked it down to three eggs if I had higher expectations for this game, but I didn't.
Pros: First off .. it has great new capabilities that are not available in alot of free roam games.. upgrading your mens gear.. improving their abilities.. and every mans different abilities are a important part in completing missions..
Cons: sadly the game has no desirable graphics... aka dull... and driving a car may have been like that in the old days but sheesh.. it seems a lil lacking in driving and graphics... another con yes it is repedative... unlike gta4 where the world is giant and endless exploring.. this world is puny...
Other Thoughts: they could have held back another year and worked on the graphics... i think their just sad
Pros: Interesting gameplay and I love the theme! free-roaming has always been one of my favorite types of play and the rpg-like skill system is pretty neat
Cons: In everyway in one way or another it doesn't seem to meet expectations. Driving is lackluster, graphics seem dated, taking over buisness while fun is reptitive with cookie-cutter building layouts, The city is too small, and not enough control over you minions/mob family. There is so much potential in this game its really a shame.
Other Thoughts: Get it when the price drops otherwise wait for Mafia II to come out.
