From this point forward, Aldo is taken under the Corleone Family's wing and works his way up in the organization.Įssentially, there are two stories in the game that intertwine, the first involving the major events of the film (with the character making central contributions) and a personal story arc. Luca Brasi is sent to recruit Aldo and teach him the ways of the Mafia.

The story then fast-forwards with the 1945 wedding scene in the opening of the film, wherein Aldo's mother asks Don Corleone to look after her son, who has been hanging with the wrong crowd. In the aftermath, Don Vito Corleone comforts the child, telling him that when he is old enough and the time is right he will take his revenge. It might not be the best game story-wise, (it's literally just the movie but with you participating) I wish games in the future would build upon this sort of concept to create the perfect gangster sandbox game.1936 the game starts with a cutscene that shows a hit on the father of the main character (who, for the sake of reference, is called Aldo Trapani here, according to the default set name) and blowing up of his bakery by the Barzinis, the Corleones' rivals in New York City. Also, all of the buildings you enter don't have any loading screens, (they just exist as a natural part of the world) something very few modern games do. Stealing truck shipments, extorting businesses with your crew of hired goons, (or buying them out with the cash you've earned) bribing police officers, executing hits on rival mobsters, expanding your turf, purchasing property, rolling in front of a rival business inside your fancy car and then filling the guards standing outside with lead while torching the place with molotov cocktails to 'send a message' starting entire mob wars, etc. Unlike other games where you play as a criminal, you actually get to do mafia shit in this game. This is honestly one of the best open world crime games out there.
