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. 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. Was a little sad taking it back yesterday to the video store but I wanted to pick up the new 50 Cent game…

I would say this game is a definite rent and a decent purchase, been looking around lately for a good deal on one if anyone knows of one let me know!
