Title: got... godfather "blackhand edition" for wii...
Post by: Don Seer on April 08, 2007, 03:08:38 AM
anyone else played this?

i only got it yesterday.. tried playing it for 10 mins last night when i got home from the pub.. seemed really good and very close to the movie.. i never realised they tied in game progress with the movie plotline so tightly..


oh yeah.. its been hard to find in stores.. apparently theres been a big problem with the censors.. its an 18 cert as it is!

i have the godfather on the 360, awesome game, follows the plot really well and places you in situations that fit the film but weren't in it, its as though your doing things that then link to the plot lines!

completed the 360 version last month, its addictive so you get through it quickly! enjoy it! does it use the wiimote for movements like fighting?

Does it still have the Horse's head bit, I remember trying my mate and I trying to do that level for ages on the PS2, cause the guy holding the head kept getting caught trying to get through the house. I'm not a fan of any level that involves leading or protecting a computer controlled character, but that one was particulary annoying.

Yeah, I might consider picking it up if and when it goes down in price or I see it second hand somewhere. Only a few more days before Super Paper Mario should arrive so that'll be taking up my time for a while.

been playing this more and more..


spent a while reloading my save game over and over when trying to take over business's..

i was having problems with the amount of ammo but i found a guy selling snub nose 38s near the police station.. once you've killed a bunch of mobsters outside a shop you want to extort you get their ammo

have now found that its best (for me).. to drive and park opposite.. get out and shelter behind the car and pick off the rival families people guarding the business 1 by 1

the wii control scheme absolutely rules for things like..

 - shot accuracy when wanting to pick people off with head shots etc
 - the strangling thing and general 1 on 1 kicking peoples asse /throwing em around/ headbutting etc

finding some of the black hand execution moves a bit tricky


you get shit loads of ammo later on in the basement of the corleone house too..

i just got promoted to "enforcer".. wont be long till i'm in the family
