The game is notable in that it features the return of several actors from the original film to lend their voice. The participating actors are James Caan as Sonny Corleone, Robert Duvall as Tom Hagen and Abe Vigoda as Salvatore Tessio, with the most notable absences being Marlon Brando (because of his ill health and his late death, the audio producers found that the quality of the recordings were not good enough and hired an imitator, although players can hear one piece of audio that Brando recorded), John Cazale (due to his death in 1978), Richard Castellano (due to his death in 1988) and Al Pacino (who is absent in image as well as voice, choosing to lend his image instead to Scarface: The World Is Yours). Another notable absence is Gianni Russo, who played Carlo Rizzi in the film, and who was still alive while the game was being developed.

I like this game and I'm currently playing the first part. Has a GTA style gameplay with an interesting story. Shooting, killing, beating people up is hellafun. Extorting businesses and torching places is more fun than playing the whole story TBH
Executing people is also hellafun!
"The Godfather 2" was a lame game. Requires much more thinking about stupid stuff, requires you to manage your businesses completely... the gameplay does not differ that much from the first game, seems as if the second game just adds an extra complexity level on top.
I don't know, maybe there are people that like such game style, but I don't, and so the game sucks for me.
