Venues
reception
“ Electronic Arts wants to make us an offer that we cannot refuse . And that for the second time. But while we found it difficult to say “No” to the first part of “The Godfather” thanks to the coherent atmosphere and motivating story, the defensive stance with its successor is much easier for us. This is due to the completely turned inside out game mechanics, away from gripping staging towards a crude action / strategy mixture. She doesn't sit down completely between all the chairs, but lets the strengths of the ingenious screen template fizzle out like gamona editors their salaries. "
“PC gamers are allowed to decline EA's offer with thanks, the rest of the consoles of legal age should take a look. Nonetheless: 'The Godfather 2' leaves an ambivalent impression. Family feuds and film classics: The 2006 version of 'The Godfather' was good, but could not knock ' Mafia ', the reference in virtual gangster epics, from its throne. The successor, logically called 'The Godfather II', is extremely close to the predecessor - which is good, but also pretty bad. In addition, the PC version looks unfinished. "
