The Godfather: Blackhand Edition (2007)
Genres:Adventure, Shooter, Racing, Fighting
Themes:Open world, Action
Story:The Godfather: Blackhand Edition, is the highest rated version of The Godfather on Gamerankings and IGN, despite not faring as well with other publications. It features 20 normal missions, ten new hit missions, a new rival family seen only in the new hit missions, rooftop battles, new favors, and other methods such as blackmail and bribery.
The Blackhand Edition adds a second path that the player may take through the game, that of the operator. The main method of progression is by blackmailing police, the FBI or members of other families, and what the player does or says affects the outcome. While the enforcer's goal is to destroy the other families through brute force, the operator's is to blackmail the police chiefs of the five boroughs by finding enough "dirt" on them during missions. The player then blackmails the chiefs, enabling the bribe gauge to fill to the top for free every time the player talks to the chief, effectively allowing the player to take control of the police in that area. The police fight alongside the player's family members and can also arrest or kill rival family members. The path of the operator also grants the player additional tactical abilities that are not open to the enforcer, such as enhanced and regenerating health, the ability to call in the four-man hit squad twice as often, enhanced crew damages and health, ability to plant car bombs and make instant stealth kills, and reduced price on bribing on the police and FBI.Show more

it contains the final performance of Marlon Brando. The game is one of the best use of a licensed game by making us a background character to the plot of the movie.
Never get bored. Tired of missions? Do an assassination. Tired of mission and assassinations? Extort some businesses. Tired of all that? Practise mastering the soggy 1940's suspension and search for collectibles. A great example of an open world, gta style game and a perfect use of the license and music. Weave in and out of the movie's plot and help Michael at all the important points in his rise. I played on the wii, which added some fun to beating somebody with a bat, or aiming for a head shot, but I'm happy to play with a controller.
Yeah it may have been a questionable GTA clone, but this was in the golden era of GTA and it was a solid competitor. I spent so many hours on this on the PS2 it's unreal; despite how questionable it is to make a game based on The Godfather, the atmosphere was impeccable. Please!

Real Bout Fatal FuryReal Bout changes the play controls from the previous Fatal Fury games, reducing the number of attack buttons from four to three: a standard Punch and Kick button, a "Strong Attack" button which can be either a stronger punch or kick attack, depending on the character. The game retains the three-plane "oversway" system from Fatal Fury 3, which features a main lane for fighting, with foreground and background planes used to avoid attacks or leap towards the opponent. A dedicated button is now used to make an "oversway" (or change plane) towards the background or foreground.
Real Bout introduces a Power Gauge, which fills up as the player performs normal or special techniques against their opponent or defend themselves, similar to many super move gauges featured in other fighting games. The Power Gauge allows players to perform one of three types of Special Techniques, depending of the level of the Power Gauge.
Real Bout also introduces stages with ring-outs, a gameplay feature previously introduced in 3D fighting games such as Virtua Fighter. If the player performs certain attacks on their opponent while next to the boundaries, the character will eventually destroy the barrier keeping the opponent in the ring and be able to knock them out of the stage for an easy win.
