Were horses' heads left on pillows until developers qot the picture? David De Martini, the game's executive producer, claims it was nothing so sinister. So the approach we aqreed with Paramount was that we wanted to create The Godfather living world, not necessarily a 'movie qame'.
You're handed very specific moments from the film, so well intersect and wrap around The Godfather story, both the movie and book,". Snch lineage gives yon some impressive co-stars, namely Robert Duvall, James Caan and the late Marlon Brando, wlw lent their likenesses and recorded dialogue for the game - altliough Brando was so ill, he may now be replaced with a voice actor. Frankly, sticking Michael Ironside or David Ducltovny on the box and claiming you've got an all-star cast doesn't have quite the same impact.
So when Sonny Caan gets shot. These are the kinds of activities you'll be involved in However, respect and revenge were arguably only a small part of the film's power.
Far more important was Michael Corleone's conversion from blue-eyed war hero to ice-cold gangster. Was all this lost when Al Pacino refused to be featured? The Michael character remains, but looks and sounds different. However, we've associated some of those characteristics with your character, who parallels the path of Michael to some degree - you ex x? However, as far as Godfather action is concerned there's plenty of it, and on two strategic levels.
The Open World game has nine tough neighbourhoods to control, five warring families and interactive building locations - often housing some racket or other for you to disrupt or take over with characteristic GTA stylings. Above this, meanwhile, lies a Risk-style strategy game where you try to weaken the other families block by block.
As you take over these interactive spaces, you weaken these families and can then go after their borough strongholds such as New Jersey and Brooklyn. Despite real, valid efforts to keep the game within the rich backdrop of the Godfather movies, the nature of mass-market gaming will inevitably clash with those who know the value of celluloid.
Since we've played Mafia though, we know that subtle and intelligent treatments of organised crime are possible. It appears this is the direction EA is heading towards, rather than a bland exploit 'em up. Here's hoping.
The Mafia , Eh? When they're not extorting money from local businesses, they're taking mistresses and killing each other in front of the kids. It's a romantic world, the most famous and well-respected film of which - after Mickey Blue Eyes of course - is The Godfather. You know the film even if you haven't seen it Mention Francis Ford Coppola to a newborn infant, and he or she will say: "The one with the horse's head and the silent scream in the third film, right?
Making a game of a film with such awesome stature could be seen as needless. This isn't Star Wars - there's no pod racing and Cantina Dance Dance Revolution included for the benefit of the games industry.
If you love the film, you'll feel an immediate sense of relief when you start the game - the facial detail is excellent. The cut-scenes are well-acted and lip-synched, as you've every right to expect with the late Brando on-board. But as you go through the training missions, this relief will become muddled with a mild sense of discomfort The hand-to-hand combat system is plainly designed for the analogue sticks of a console controller.
Pull back to raise your fist push forward to punch. Sounds intuitive. But translate that motion to a mouse, make it wildly unresponsive, and you'll need a square metre of desk space just to accommodate your own dumb flailing.
The keyboard alternatives amount to a mute 'sorry about the mouse thing', and it's a real shame, because what could have been a natural way to chuck people around their own shop has been coated in treacly faff and fed to a fat clumsy idiot. Extortion gives you a regular income to back up your mission earnings, and to get businesses under your wing, you have to 'negotiate' with the owner.
Raise your fist, smash up the shop, kneecap a customer, it all serves to up your earnings provided you don't go too far.
It gives a good sense of progress, seeing the mini-map change as your empire grows. But as the only distinguishing feature between this and superior titles, it's just not enough. My involvement in the game was constantly broken by stupid oversights.
I spent the last of my money bribing an officer, yet somehow had the cash Luca needed to complete the mission. I drove over a member of the Corleone family, and he responded with a cheerful "watch out for this guy - lie's going places". And my personal beef - vocal NPCs. Give them a wider range or shut them up. In five minutes of play, I heard. Maybe four. I know they're not real people, I really do, it's just the sign of a great game when these possibilities are taken into account This is based on a year-old masterpiece, so it has a positive duty to be great, or not use the name.
And it's not It's not great at all. Respect and Consequences Use your powers of loyalty and fear to earn respect throughout New York City. Respect could be one of the most important weapons in your war for the underworld.
The power of intimidation is in your hands. Use the BlackHand Control combat system to execute punches, kicks, grabs, and even strangleholds. The Saboteur is an action, shooter, adventure and racing game developed by Electronic Arts and Pandemic Studios.
