The Godfather Game Review

When I first heard about the Godfather game being released, I was somewhat apprehensive about it. Electronic Arts, the company who developed the game, is known primarily for their sports titles. I find it a little strange that they are trying to move into the Grand Theft Auto territory with the release of this game. Despite this, it appears they have done a great job. The godfather writer for this game wrote a excellent story, one that players will enjoy.

One of the first things I like about the Godfather is how you're able to push people to their limit in order to get what you want, similar to the Punisher game. You start off as an underling, and get basic training on how to use bats, billy clubs, and fight with your bare hands. The environment plays an important role in allowing you to deal with enemies. If a baking oven is nearby, you can push them into it. Or if they are standing on a ledge, you can push them off. This level of realism is one of the things that really impressed me about the game.

You can even smash their heads through glass or a cash register. The objects which can be used will have a small icon near them. Throughout the game, you do small time jobs to earn the respect of your superiors. You will come into contact with important people, and if you make the right decisions and complete objectives, you will find yourself rising in the ranks. You can also bribe police officers, and the ultimate goal of the player is to become the Don. The game is very authentic in many details, and EA has effectively shown that they are a jack of all trades when it comes to producing quality games.

You can walk into the local shops and speak with owners, and you can "persuade" them to accept your protection. The game requires use of critical thinking skills. Going in with guns blazed could easily get you killed. Being able to negotiate and find the weak points of your enemies is one of the most important aspects of the game. You also earn extra points by shooting enemies in the knee or head. The game also doesn't hold back on gore. The godfather writer at EA worked hard to make sure the details were as authentic as possible.

The violence in the game is very authentic of the traditional styles used by mafias. It is very brutal and realistic. If you are looking for violence you will not be disappointed. EA has done a fine job.
