5.0 out of 5 stars
This is the first time I've played a game of this type before (previous wii favourites being sports, play, and korarinpa). The controls are intuitive and easy to use, and the game itself, well, there's just so much to do! The main missions are story driven and give a real sense of flow and direction. As an aside there are additional tasks like contract hits, favours, extorting business, uncovering rackets, taking over warehouses, hijacking supply trucks. You can drive any car (either steal it parked or hijack it). I'd recommend this to anyone, particularly someone trying to get an 'in' on RPG games (usually I get completely baffled and end up trawling the net for walkthroughs), but not so with this! Deserves the 18 rating though for violence, swearing and seedy undertones. Hey, its the Godfather afterall!

For anyone looking for a real run game for the Wii - here it is. Controls work very well, with the normal analogue control for running/driving, any fighting you litterally punch with the remotes. Can also headbutt, headslam, throw against walls/out windows etc with simple controls. Most fun on the Wii since playing Zelda. It does deserve its 18 rating but so far mainly through the cinematics in between gameplay - that may change later in the game. Thoroughly recommended.

This game makes great use of the Wii controls no more so than when throwing baddies against walls, throwing punches, reloading guns & general fighting. That said sometimes the actions are a bit unresponsive or on occassions don't happen at all.
Other than the graphics being far from perfect there is little to fault on this game. The Wii wasn't made for excellent graphics it was made for fun and this game has it by the bucketload. Taking over shops, finding rackets, bribing cops, causing mob warfare, driving like a loony around the city and just fighting and shooting make this a truly fun game.
The story is fluent, there is loads to do and overall this proves that the Wii controls can truly enhace a game and provide great gaming.
If you have had a bad day there is no better way than taking it out on a load of rival families, by whatever means.
