I am a huge fan of the GTA franchise, and for that reasons I never bought or rented Godfather until now. Nothing else was out for PS3 and I took a chance. I am glad I did, because this is an awesome game!
There are a lot of elements from GTA here (free roam environment, mission based activities with rewards/cash etc ... a great arsenal & cars you can steal) ... but what separates this game is what GTA has yet to do - realism.
You can't just start a shootout in the streets, you'll be killed rather quickly depending on where you are - they have backup, but it doesn't come in waves like GTA and people don't randomly appear to come and kill you either.
You can buy guns/clothes etc from black market distributors (each one has a different item to sell), you can extort business' and blow their safe if you have dynamite.
You feel like a part of the family, unlike recent GTA titles, where you complete generic missions and gain momentum in the world. Godfather does a very good job of bringing aspects of the Mob to your video game world.
