    Good sandbox game if you haven't tried it!

    My latest rental is The Godfather, was the only sandbox game that I haven’t played and for some reason at my local video store it was always rented. I have to say after playing it a bit I really enjoyed it and understand why it has been out so much. It plays just like a older GTA game and you play as someone making his way up the family ladder to finally become the don.

    What I enjoyed the most was the extorting of local business’s and slapping around the shop owners trying to figure out what worked best to get them to pay up. Laughed out loud the first time I by accident threw a shop owner into his own oven… Also weaving your character into the Godfather story without changing it was interesting and my favorite mission has to be putting the horse head in the movie producers bed.

    The only part that was disappointing was all the Microsoft points you could blow on getting a certain gun or the most powerful body guard faster than usual. I don’t think I will ever spend a penny on something like that. I would say this game is a definite rent and a decent purchase if you find it for $10 or $2.

Some of the cutscenes even feature the original actors (James Caan and Robert Duvall reprise their roles as Sonny and Tom). Most of the characters are well-done, but the developers absolutely massacred the translation of Michael Corleone...

           The Godfather (the video game) is a GTA inspired sandbox type game that pits you in the mob era and lets you play out the story in the movie. Like the movie, the game takes place in New York City. The city itself is split into 5 areas: Little Italy, New Jersey, Brooklyn, Hell’s Kitchen, and Midtown. Each of the said areas are controlled by a rival family, with your family the Corleones, controlling Little Italy. The campaign of the game will lead you through the movie’s plot as this kind of...
