The Godfather: The Game for PlayStation 2

Congratulations. You're now part of the most infamous crime family in film, the Corleones. Navigate the New York mob underworld from 1945-55 to rise through the ranks and rule the city.

Cinematic visuals, story help from Godfather Returns author Mark Winegardner, and the voices/likenesses of greats including James Caan, Robert Duvall, and the late Marlon Brando make this an overall gaming experience worthy of the mighty Godfather legacy.
