kiddingguy Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 I was wondering if there is a difference in storyline between The Godfather and Mafia for PC? I heard a lot about The Godfather, but is it really that new and astonishing compared to Mafia? I guess the graphics are better, but what more?!?

sin-ergy Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Godfather graphics aren't all that great. Mafia is still in my top 10 fav games of all time. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/#findComment-587356770 Share on other sites More sharing options...
notuptome2004 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 well lets seee Godfather is based on all 3 godfather films in the godfather sence of things it has charcters from all movies i n it and well it has sotryline parts from the movies but yet adds alot more to it new types of missions. Godfather is GTA meets Godfather. in godfather you can do everything ya cna do in GTA and mafia but more ther are more buildings ya can go in to more depth hotels with multiple levels everything. ya cna exstor money from peaple and stuff. Godfather is hands down more then enough to say ya cant compare it to mafia. the graphics are decent in the game ona good Pc system ther not the greatest but ther decent enough to play the game. so ina finale word The Godfather Pc game/ console game is based on the Godfather frilms from the 70s and 80s so it is a no brianer that it is great and that it foes beyond what ya cna do in Mafia and GTA series games .

ambiance Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I was looking forward to Godfather, but it looks like a graphically dumbed down version of Mafia and Mafia was made years before hand. It seems its only redeeming qualities are the Marlon Brando factor not to mention the other voice actors. I might just wait for Al Pacino in the Scarface PC game.

PrimoTurbo Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Here is a difference Mafia > Godfather, but that's because I can't stand the damn controls for Godfather for the most part at least.

Sorry to be a buzz kill but they used a someone that sounds the same in that game as well. Apparently Al Pacino's voice has matured too much to play the part one last time.

JoHideo Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Mafia is one of the best games I've ever played. Even though I haven't and probably will not play Godfather, I think I could safely say that Godfather does not top Mafia.

mistical Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 I was pretty far into The Godfather until I got Oblivion for 360, completely addicted to it now. I will again someday soon play The Godfather again or at least do some missions here and there. Anyways, to get to the point. I played Mafia god knows how long ago, the game was fantastic, one of my all time favorite games to have had the chance to play. Now, The Godfather is a good game as well, I really do not have many bad things to say about it. Does it beat Mafia? Personally I do not think so, but does is suck? No and I do not think you will be disappointed in playing it either if you liked Mafia. I love the game and these type of games (GTA style/Mafia style/being able to rome). I could nitpick on some things, such as the driving, or stealing cars and getting a cop on me when clearly one would of never seen me, but it's still a good game. As far as the controls, after playing the game for a little bit, you get use to them, at first I thought they sucked but just give it a little bit and you should get use to them.

techbeck Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Havnt had a hard time with the controls myself...they a re WAY easier to use that GTA... Speaking of GTA, the graphics were not that great, but they are better in Godfather.

»X« Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 When i played godfather one part made me laugh out loud. Where you meet Michael Corleone for the first time.

Cris13 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Well id played both now and I think mafia its better even that is an old game (2002) for some reasons like 1 - It has a lot of different cars (like a 100) don?t remember 2 - The graphics are better 3 - The gunshots are more realistic 4 - U can shot from the inside of a car 5 ? It has a lot more cinemas sequences 6 ? Real car physics Well I don?t remember all those little things that made mafia a better game than godfather Maybe what I liked about godfather was that u can grab a guy and smash him will the walls and other things and even thrown him from a:rofl:e :rofl: (That was funny) And AI its better The bad thing about godfather mmm controls are a %&(=?/&%%& and only a few cars like 5 or 6 different that really sucks and they drive like that super handling cheat from san andreas And I don?t know maybe you think different Do y:rolleyes::rolleyes: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/#findComment-587740251 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umbrello Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 There's really no comparison. Mafia, being one of the most underrated games in history and having one of the greatest storylines this generation of games has to offer, is an impressively designed game with extremely high production values. Godfather is just another GTA-clone set in the 30's that tries too hard and ends up failing in visuals, controls, etc. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/#findComment-587740526 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbrukardt Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Godfather was a GTA clone at best, Mafia was a 5 star movie hidden under a game, spectacular at a minimum Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/446947-godfather-vs-mafia/#findComment-587740554 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Cat Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Mafia was truley one of the best games i have ever played. Everytime i did even a little upgrade to my PC i had to play the game again to see how much better it looked :yes: It had such an awesome storyline, i have never played a game quite as high quality as it before or after it came out. Haven't played Godfather and don't really want to......
