Very good story, fun to play, like GTA, graphics are pretty good, and gets addicting. Expect to spend hours at a time playing.

I really enjoyed this game and it lasts a decent amount of time with lots to do. I originally started playing on a very old TV that was only 19 inches and had problems reading things. However, when I hooked it up to the 42" HD Plasma, it was amazing, I even saw icons I didn't know existed. Its overall a really fun game

one of the best games I have ever played!!!!!!!

This is a good game. I just don't like the map and having to go back to the safehouse and save all the time. The map is a little small and hard to find places. Other than that this is a great game.

Better than I suspected.

This game is a lot of fun to play. It could be better(more options like GTA), but fun enough that I keep playing it over & over.

Fair Review

I had this game before on the PS2 and it worked well some when, I heard the PS3 had God father (The Don Edition) I was excited. I have all platforms & consider myself a decent judge of games the PS3 version tried to hard to improve on great game if you have to a play God Father version play the PS2 or Xbox & Wii version better feel for the game then the PS3.

A really good game, just a little repeating...

Now, The Godfather - The Dons edition really is a wonderful game.
It have great graphics, a long playtime (15hours+), nice missions, great weapons and a huge map.
People who liked the GTA series would probably like The Godfather, since many of
the features are the same. You can walk anywhere you want on the map, walk inside
buildings whenever you want (a lot more than in GTA) and you can do whatever you want to.

The bad part thought, there's always one, is that the game is a little to repeating after having
played it for hours, businesses have to be taken over, again, and again, and again (there is over 50
of them so think about it) and you have to talk to the same people for the 20th time or kill the 10000th
mafia mob.

But overall, the good things make up for the repeating in the game. Try it, it's worth it.

The Godfather the Way it should be

Well, I played the original Godfather of XBOX back when it first came out. That game was definetly a FIVE STAR game.. So when I started readig about some extra options on the New one brought to you by Playstation 3 I couldnt resit. This game although there are alot of things that are the same. There is also alot more features about this game that will bring you right back into it. I have been playing this game for week straight. There are more Rackets to take over more types of shops and also The Hit Squad option is bad A$$.. Great job with this game.. A Must buy if you love the mafia type game

Good Game

Well I think overall this is a good game. Not five stars good though. You may first think five stars untill you realise your just doing the same thing over and over again.

Now you can customize your characters appearence and all that. From there you build your way up doing missions and such. You can earn more money by taking over other buisnesses. To do this you find a buisness owned by another family ( Bakery,Clubs, stuff like that ) then you must kill any of the family members around there that threaten your takeover and "persuade" the owner of the buisness to start paying your family. Whether it be just talking to him, breaking up his store, or beating him up. Or just simply rob a bank to get some $.
Now as you gain respect for doing missions and killing enemy familys you level up. You can level up skills like guns,health,ect. There are enough weapons in the game to keep you into it ( Really just a few but you can find people to upgrade them ) but all the cars just seem lame. They could definetly use more cars.
You can bribe cops and for a limmited ammount of time you can do what you want in that area as long as you don't kill cops. But if you don't you will get "heat" and the more heat you have the more cops will be after you. Police are tricky to outrun as they can catch up to you always and blast you with a shotty. They set up roadblocks of police cars making it difficult but fun to get through. Cars don't last very long when your at max heat though.
Soon as you get to a certain rank in the family you can call some of your members to assist you in battle ( when meter gets full ) and they will always be with you untill they all die. Extremely helpfull in later hard missions.

As I was saying though you come to realise after having fun that your just doing the same thing over. Taking over buisnesses blah blah blah. It does feel exciting when you get a great cop battle or enemy family battle near a bunch of your family members though. Later in the game its too easy though. The only way you die is if you get cought out in the open when multiple enemies shoot at you. Other then that the game is too easy.

Worth the buy? Umm id have to say yes it is, all games get boring eventually anyway.

I believe it has online play but havn't done that yet too.

This was the first game I played on the Playstation 3, and I have to admit, I liked it. Do not play it if you are not interested in building a career on it. This is what makes it fun to me.

Uninvolving and uninspired

By the time your neck deep in this game you've had all the phoney accents you can stand. This game is a mish-mash of cliche's and stereotypes piled high on a bed of repeditive task that seemingly get you nowhere. Sure, you rise among the family, people speak to you more nicely and all, but in the end you keep getting sent oun on the same crappy jobs.

The better plan would have made this a tactical game, you play as the Don, and control and expand your empire. But no, you play as a grease spot working his way up the ranks and you do the same things over and over and over and over and over again.
