Story
On the eve of the Cuban revolution, a major mob meeting in Havana takes a bloody turn. The Don of your family is killed in Cuba, leaving it to you to take the reigns and lead your battered organization and reestablish the Corleone powerbase in Queens. Success breeds opportunity: after you've proven you have the chops to run a top-tier crime organization, Hyman Roth invites you to expand and support him in South Florida. Do you accept his offer or do you remain loyal to the Corleones? Things get even more complicated when Michael Corleone comes under investigation by a Senate Committee on Organized Crime, and you're tapped to run the Family with support from Tom Hagen. Whatever decisions you make, you must build up your arsenal, command your crew, and establish and maintain power... or face the consequences. Stack your pockets with favors from those in positions of influence as you fight off attacks and strike back at your rivals. As the Godfather there will be a price on your head and a target on your back, but don't take it personally. After all, it's only business.

The Don's View
Be a true Don as you coordinate all the action using a 3D world map: survey your turf, place defenses on businesses, analyze crime patterns, identify new illicit rackets, and choose the target of your next attack. As the Don of a family, there are a ton of strategic choices to make in The Godfather 2. Just one example are Monopolies. Monopolies are groupings of rackets that "run" the same criminal activity. Controlling, and defending a monopoly comes with both a monetary bonus and game perk benefits making them key to owning the map, gaining wealth and amassing power. Monopolies can be local to one city or span across the cities. Larger monopolies made up of many targets, spanning multiple cities are obviously more difficult but offer greater rewards. Other in-game rackets include: Fronts - extortable legitimate businesses of the game that provide payouts as well as money laundering opportunities; and Small, Medium and Large Rackets - venues containing an illegal criminal activity and usually disguised as legitimate businesses. These three require various degrees of muscle to defend and keep under your control.

Key Game Features:

  • Build Your Family - Recruit, develop, and promote members of your crime family.
  • Command a Crew - Bring up to three crew members along on jobs, including an arsonist, demolitions expert, safecracker, and more. Command their actions in battle and unleash their specialties on your enemies.
  • The Don's View - Be a true Don as you coordinate all the action using a 3D world map: survey your turf, place defenses on businesses, analyze crime patterns, identify new illicit racket monopolies, and choose the target of your next attack.
  • Blackhand Brutality - Act like a mobster to command respect, intimidating and extorting business owners and rival families with devastating new attacks and executions.
  • Bring Your Family Online - Recruit your friends to join your family and take them into battle online to find out who is the Don of Dons.
  • 'It's Only Business' - Relive the greatest moments from The Godfather II in an open-world action experience inspired by the movie.
Commanding Your Crew
There are six ranks within each family, starting with the Don. As the Don you will have a right hand man, your Consigliere Tom Hagen, who will teach you the ropes and advise you on how to take down the other families. The rest of your family is comprised of an Underboss, Capos, Soldiers and Associates. These are the men who guard your interests and follow your orders without question. Members of your family within these ranks, known as Made Men, possess exclusive skills and specialties that can be taken into battle. Direct them wisely and upgrade them to develop their specialties and increase the power of your organization. But beware. Each rival family has it’s own family tree as well. Learning how to hunt down and permanently eliminate their Made Men will be critical to your success.

Take Your Family Online in Multiplayer Modes
Play The Godfather II online multiplayer modes and become the true Don of Dons. Take your money, weapons, and crew from your singleplayer experience online and wage mob warfare against players around the world. Play as one of your family’s Made Men and put your best strategies to the test as you battle for riches and honors that transfer back and forth between your singleplayer campaign. Some available modes include:

Fire Starter Game Mode - Arsonist crew members attempt to destroy as much as possible in a race to reach the scoring limit.

Safe Cracker Mode - Safe cracker crew members attempt to find safes throughout the map. Cracking them earns your team points and money.

Demolition Assault Mode - Use your demolitions specialty to destroy the enemy’s three assault points.

Team Deathmatch - The bloodiest mode and so not for the squeamish. Team with most kills wins.

4 out of 5 stars Very Addictive   August 14, 2010
Mark (USA)
Godfather 2 is a great game if you can get past the average graphics and voice acting. The main goal of Godfather 2 is taking control of New York, Miami, and Havana from rival Mafia families one business at a time. Godfather 2 is very addictive because you want to keep taking over businesses as you watch your territory grow. You hire a crew of 3 people, each with their own speciality (lock picking, medic, etc). You also get to upgrade their stats like an RPG, and you can buy them better weapons that you unlock in the game. It may not be pretty, but for 20 bucks you can't go wrong.


4 out of 5 stars Not better then the first but its good on its own   August 7, 2010
Sigmund Freud
The first Godfather game took you further into the film that its based on by making your character a part of the Corleone family working for them. In the Godfather 2 your already a don who now has to build his criminal empire by taking over. The taking over aspect is the whole gameplay focus from start to finish. And its great you'll have tone of fun intimidating shop owners, beating up rival families and taking over their business as well but it can get repetitive for many players as taking over businesses is mandatory on most of the story progression. But what many players will grow tired of fast is their business being taken over every five minutes and this will be constant throughout the whole game unless you take out the other mob families and their made men.

The three cities you'll be in feel small but they make up for this by having plenty of interiors you can go in. The graphics are good and look similar to saints row 2, the brutal executions that were present in the first game are present here but this time there are tons more.

Its shorter then the first game story wise but taking over all of the businesses in each of the three cities should take you a while. There's also multiplayer which is a neat idea, the crew members in the singleplayer can be taken online to earn upgrades that they can use in singleplayer;its fun for awhile but the problem is there isn't many people playing this game.

The Godfather 2 is a good game but it lacks variety and challenge that the first game had. The game is too easy,short and doesn't let you be a part of the movie. Its The Godfather 2 in name only and its a rent at best just play the first one instead or wait for Mafia 2.



1 out of 5 stars Rubbish   August 2, 2010
Rene A. Romero Romero (Bogota, Colombia)

I do not agree with any of the 5 star reviews, this games is completely RUBBISH. The story line is poor, AI is poor, graphics are poor, everything in this game is poor. So, do not make the same mistake I did, do not buy it. Much better GTA 4 or Saints Row 2.

He dicho!



4 out of 5 stars Fun action game.   July 25, 2010
Jason L. Saurbaugh (somewere in md.)
I bought this not really knowing what to expect. I am a big fan of Gta 4 so that is a plus when playing this game. It's not up to par with Gta 4 as far as graphics ant the depth of the game. that does not mean it's not fun. It's a very fun and entertainig game. I liked it and would recomend it. I bought it for 19.99 and that is worth it. If you are a trophy hunter you can get all the trophies in this game in one playthrough. I did. The M rating is every bit what it deserves. This game is in no way a game for kids. It has alot of adult content. I gave it a 5 star for fun because to me it is a very fun game. It was fun thinking I was a mobster. I gave 4 for graphics. Like I said earlier the graphics are not on par with Gta 4. It might be due to the fact of the era it is set in also but they just don't look as good as Gta 4.

In conclussion it is a satisfying game and if you like sandbox type games then this would be right up your alley.

hope this review is helpful.
