I'm concerned about copyright on this page. A large block of text taken from elsewhere was inserted and later rewritten, but it still smells much like the original text.
I'm going to delete the text which descends from the original copyright violation. The page where I found the text (which I suspect is taken directly from the game or a press release): http://www.mediadis.com/games/detail.asp?id=150720
- According to the official EA site, the release date is March 24, not 21. Darth Everent 17:29, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
- All recent Godfather trailers on the website ended with the release date as the 21st and a news update was posted on the 22nd noting the game's release (but this is all moot now) --Colonel Cow 02:39, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
I Think there should be a section on the diference of the movie and game ex: the Horse scene happened after the don was hospitalised.
How about some info about EA's budget, behind the scenes info on the development of the game, etc Tehw1k1 23:40, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
The trivia about Pacino refusing should be checked. I believe he already had an agreement for the Scarface game which would have prevented him from appearing in other games. Please fact check this. Lgascoig 14:32, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Coppola Denounces
I remember before the game was released that Coppola denounced it siting that he felt they were making money off of his work. Should this be mentioned somehwere in the article (personally I find it to be interesting trivia) :: ehmjay 22:20, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Trapani?
What? where in the game does it say your players name is Trapani?
- Late in the game, when your character takes out some corrupt police bigwig, there's a bulletin board above his desk with various overlapping newspaper clippings and photos. Somewhere in there is your picture, and although the first name is obscured, "Trapani" is clearly visible as the last name.Raider Duck 04:36, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
In the beggining of the game when you make up the name of the character the default name is ALDO! The Architect 01 01:23, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Critisism section should list complaints from the owners of the game too, displeased owners of the game like me.
- There are so many other critisism's to this game that are not listed in this game, such as the terrible weapon sizes and capabilities, such as the Tommy Gun being extreamly small and weaker than the Colt 45. pistol, since they fire the same ammo, the Tommy Gun should be more powerful, since the larger size and barrel. The magnum is the best weapon in the game, but that is rediculous, magnums dont have as much power as a rifle, it should suck, the shotgun is laughfalbly small, and also does not have as much power as the UNBEATABLE MAGNUM. Also besides that, the upgrades also are not realistic, for the tommy gun, the final upgrade makes it look gay, and the cut off barrel, box magazing instead of a drum magazine, and removed stock would make the gun terrible, reducing the accuracy tramatically, it would suck, the final shot gun upgrade, the "street sweeper" goes the smae, it would be horrible, and it to looks gay.
- All the guns are not there real size they would be in real life, they are all really small and look terrible, not to mention they do not follow the God Father, Ive never seen a stupid ass little bitch Golden pistol in ANY of the godfather movies, and NO FAGNUMS either, and no cut off sawed off shotguns, called "street sweeper's". No "dillingers" wich suck, and somehow have more ammo than a drum magazine. No "assassin pistols" and the tommy guns in that movie were not miniature pieces of crap.
- Not to mention, the are no "gang colors" in the god father movie, but there is in the game, this makes no sense, when did the mafia EVER signify each other by wearing a green or red suit? NEVER! this is rediculous, and stupid, This game does not follow the God Father at all, it makes up crap. And the police never used 38.'s, they used shot guns and tommy guns, and 45.'s at the time, in order to fight the mafia's arsenal of weapons.
- The size of New York in this game is terrible, its so small, and if look closely at the map, youll see the outlines of streets that the idiotic game creators left out, it looks NOTHING LIKE NEW YORK OR NEW JERSEY OR WHATEVER.
- not only that, but the game a limited selection of cars, so limited in fact that I saw all of the cars in the game in a matter of minutes after I started playing the game, except the car you get while doing missions, the car that is always black and you drive with sonny in.
- All in al, this game blows, there is no way anyone could like this game to be cool in, the only fun thing to do is to make a loser and be him, like a big fat guy thats ugly as hell or whatever, and make him use those gay weapons and be in the lame stroyline, and whats up with Micheal Coreleone, he looks nothing like him the in the game, nothing like him at all, at first I couldnt even tell thats him.
- God you're annoying as fuck, although you do have some valid points buried underneath that pile of deranged, barely-cohrent ranting you just spouted. Just play Mafia instead. - 81.178.102.118 11:07, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
