I have this for PC. Its pretty cool how its very similar to the actual movie but the gameplay can get pretty repetitive. Also, if you've ever played Mafia, this is almost the exact same, except I thought Mafia was much better. Its almost like EA ripped off mafia and released it as a different name.

the game looks pretty good :) i'm a huge fan of the GTA series, so hopefully this will be promising

I have played this game. Its very easy. It was really fun at first, but it got boring after a while. Very little replayability.

The missions were kinda cool since you play a character who wasn'nt directly in the movies, but was crucial to a lot of cool scenes. For example, you are the guy who hides the gun for michael behind the washroom, revenge sonny's death, hide the horse head, take out the other families dons.

Doesn't really make sense though, I am Don of New York and I'm still running around by myself shaking down bakers! I can think of hundreds of ways to make this such an awesome game, but I guess its always easy to say that.

And it was pretty good that they had the real actors come in to do voice, with the exception of Al Pacino. The result is that the character of michael looks and sounds nothing like the movie.
