The Godfather II
EA
PlayStation 3 Xbox 360 PC
Release Date: February 1, 2009



QUOTE
The Godfather II game goes beyond the film's story by setting players in the world of organized crime in 1960's Florida, Cuba and New York.
After being promoted by Michael Corleone to Don of New York, players expand to new cities, as they build up their families through extorting businesses, monopolizing illegal crime rings and defeating new families in an effort to become the most powerful mob family in America. To help players manage their empire, The Godfather II introduces "The Don's View" -- an innovative strategy meta-game that allows players to oversee the entire world as they grow the family business. Using the Don's View, players will be able to build, defend and expand their crime rings, while keeping an eye on the movements and plans of the rival families. Players will also learn to master the business of organized crime by building a family of Made Men, hiring crew, handing out orders, and promoting their best men up the ranks.

  • Set in a stunning open-world environment, The Godfather II expands on the popular gameplay mechanics of the first game and doubles down on the series' signature BlackHand control scheme, which now features even more visceral hand-to-hand brutality at your fingertips, introducing a new combo system, pressure tactics and executions.
  • In The Godfather II, players will fight alongside their hand-picked crew, who have their own skills and expertise. Each family member specializes in a specific field such as demolitions, arson, engineering, first-aid and more.
  • "The Don's View" allows players to oversee the entire world as they grow the family business.



didn't think much of the first one, dragged on a bit , repeated itself and was just plain boring.

Will get this just because it is the godfather2 and the chance to run about shooting people. 30 minutes of fun at least cool.gif

I didnt enjoy the first one, but then again I never saw the movies. tongue.gif




I just saw it as a chance for EA to cash in on the GTA hype and the Godfather name.

the first one was okay... mostly because of the novelty factor of Brando, Duvall, Caan and Abe Vigoda all voicing their characters and they did a good job creating that 40's NY era.. but this one doesn't even look like the Godfather.

They should have just skipped it and done a game based on Part 3. It might not be the most popular of the series, but it has a lot more room to flesh out a video game, especially once Vincent takes over as the head of the family. They could get Andy Garcia and Pacino to voice their characters.

yeah Pacino would be cool , wouldn't have to scream a lot like Tony Montana so his voice could handle it.

Brent knowing these game companies godfather 3 will probably be here around 2011 or 2012.
