I remember playing this game with my cousins and we wanted to make the most stereotypical mafia mob we could think of. We ended up making my cousin Andrea (one of us) with moustache: we were crying laughing. The game is fan, the story is great (it's the Godfather after all) and I'm sentimentally attached to it. I want this game in my collection and keep it forever. So, one day, I could meet my cousins, start this game and make the same character just older and laugh like we did that day
I've been looking for this game for years. I would really like it to be somewhere to buy, I really liked this game as a child. I played on Playstation 2, finished about 10 times and still played The Godfather 2 which I thought was kind of bad.
An amazing game, i had this on Xbox then again on either PS3 or Xbox 360, i forget which and the next gen version blew my mind more as during fist fights, if you got hit, your character would gain facial bruising. This would then take several in game days to heal and i thought it was a nice touch.

Look, I know this could be impossible due to copyrights and stuff, but this game desperately needs to be rescued. Even if folks need to strip everything related to The Godfather IP. It's just so good to play and all its mechanics work very well.

I actually first played this game on the Wii! This game and its sequel were developed by EA Redwood Shores, who eventually changed their name to Visceral Games -- AKA, the studio that gave us the Dead Space series. For a time, they were responsible for some fantastic entries in the movie tie-in genre, such as it was, giving us The Godfather I and II, as well as the beloved The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. The Godfather, like a lot of these games on the Dreamlist, was not necessarily the top of the mountain as far as mafia games go. It was, however, a very strong attempt to create a parallel narrative to the film, with you taking on the role of a recruit in the Corelone family. Several of the original voice actors reprise their roles, and even Marlon Brando himself recorded lines for what would be his final role. (Unfortunately, due to his failing health, Brando's lines were deemed unusable and replaced.) And the story, from what I can remember, is very good, especially if you're a fan of the films. I would say that The Godfather is to the Mafia series what Saints Row was to the GTA series. It's a very creative alternative, but lacking the overall strength of its competitor. A comfortable 2nd place, but that didn't make it any less of a good game. It's from a unique time when we got some truly great movie tie-in games with a lot of work and heart put into them, most of which vanished with the next console generation. I'd love to get the chance to play it again. It's a Godfather game, complete with a beautiful open world, a great story, and some of the original actors. It may not have been Game of the Year material, but it didn't deserve to vanish.

The great movie, the great game adaptation. Now you can play it only if you have a DVD. We need this game on a game platform like GOG! This game must survive! :)

This is the best mafia game. I played this game over and over as a kid. My parents didn’t allow gta games in the house so I had to find alternative games, luckily The godfather is their favorite movies of all time so this was an easy sell. One of the first games I ever 100% I had it on multiple consoles too. The dons edition wat the best!

This game should have a PC port! This game is incredible and I used to play it alot when I was a kid. The combat in this game is very unique and you can shove enemies around, throw them through a window, etc. There's alot you can do.

Essentially what Ghostbusters: The Game done but with The Godfather franchise. You play as a rookie that's doing jobs for the Corleone family. Some would easily compare this to Mafia series. This was one of the best licensed GTA clones I ever played!!! There was a bit of realism with some great mechanics to balance things out. You never too well stacked in this game. Always expect things to go wrong you'll be fine. This also was the last video game to star the late Marlon Brando before he passed. A particular late in game cut scene he reprised the role of Don Corleone. I'm also aware there's a few versions of this game. Honestly if you guys can give us the most complete version it would be greatly appreciated. They also brought a lot of iconic moments from the original movie in as well. If you're a huge fan of The Godfather series. You're absolutely going to love this game. Parts of this reminds me of Saints Row series to a degree. Mostly in some aspects of the game play. I haven't played this in a long time. I previously had this on PS2 years ago, I do recalled beating the game. This is easily one of the best games of it's style.

This game is actually what introduced me to the Godfather. It’s rough in certain places, but the story is quite faithful to the themes of the movie and the open-world gameplay is really fun. I loved going around, finding collectibles and taking over different businesses controlled by the rival crime families. It’s an underrated gem released in a time when movie licensed games were almost universally lazy, poorly-made slop. It should be available digitally so that more people can enjoy it and appreciate what it was trying to do.

Discworld II: Mortality Bytes!
Discworld II: Mortality Bytes!Discworld II: Mortality Bytes! is the second point-and-click adventure game based on Terry Pratchett's series of fantasy novels set on the mythical Discworld. The game was developed and produced in 1996 by Perfect Entertainment for the PC, and ported in 1997 for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn. It was published by Psygnosis for the PC and PlayStation, and by Sega for the Saturn (only in Europe). In Discworld II the player controls Rincewind the "wizzard" (voiced by Eric Idle, as in the previous game) who has been burdened with the task of coercing Death out of his impromptu retirement and back into his regular duties. The plot borrows from a number of Discworld books, most notably Reaper Man, Moving Pictures and Lords and Ladies. It all begins in a quiet Ankh-Morpork street, where Rincewind and The Librarian inexplicably fail to die from a nearby cart-bomb explosion. The odd event is not shared by them alone however: occurrences of the newly dead re-awakening and disturbing the populace are being reported all over the city, prompting the Archchancellor of Unseen University to halt his usual activities of feasting and merrymaking, and to take charge of the situation. Much to Rincewind's despair, the entirety of this process involves appointing him to the task of finding Death and convincing him to resume his work.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight PrincessThe Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess was initially developed with the Nintendo GameCube in mind, but ended up receiving a Wii port when it was released to promote the new console. This version has motion control compatibility for the sword and pointer controls for the menus, the bow and the boomerang. This version of the game has a completely inverted map and locations when comparing with the GameCube release. The change in layout was meant to adapt Link's usually left-handed design to right-handed people, given the motion controls.
