The Godfather II (video game)

From The Godfather Wiki

The Godfather II is both a sequel to The Godfather: The Game and an adaptation of the 1974 film The Godfather: Part II, where you control a Corleone Soldati called Dominic Corleone and become Don after former protagonist Aldo Trapani gets killed. The action takes place across three cities: New York, Miami, and Havana. Robert Duvall reprises his role as Tom Hagen. A Facebook application based off the game was also created, titled The Godfather II Crime Rings. You run around, killing people, hiring men, and pulling of executions on cops. The game is an 18 (BBFC and PEGI) or an M (ESRB) due to bloody violence and graphic nudity.

[edit] Synopsis

In 1955, Michael Corleone has moved his family to Lake Tahoe, leaving Aldo Trapani as his proxy in New York. Michael's ultimate ambition is go legitmate, via Nevada's lucrative gambling trade and a business enterprise in Cuba with Hyman Roth, and give his caporegimes the opportunity to form their own families. However, on the eve of Fidel Castro's Revolution, a major mob meeting in Havana takes a bloody turn; Trapani is killed, and Dominic must fill his shoes.

While Michael comes under investigation by a Senate Committee on Organized Crime, Dominic is tasked with running the business in his stead. Dominic's rise to power takes him across New York, where Corleone interests are threatened by the Rosato brothers. Michael eliminates Carmine Rosato, but loses his friend and ally Frank Pentangeli to an assassination attempt. Learning of Dominic's skills, Hyman Roth calls him to Miami to deal with the Granados Family who are using their influence to harm Roth. At the same time, Dominic forms an alliance with the Sicilian Samuele Mangano and his family, but later believes they are trying to kill him and becomes involved in a bloody mob war. Roth promises to help Dominic out, if he helps him with a situation in Cuba, where CIA Agent Henry Mitchell is attempting to overthrow Castro.

Dominic fails to kill Castro and arouses the ire of the Cuban Alemida family, who Roth is in dealings with. Upon his return to New York, Dominic learns that Roth has been playing them, he framed Michael for Pentangeli's assassination, which failed, and caused Pentangeli to testify in the hearing, as well as framing the Manganos for a hit on Dominic, forcing him to help Roth in Cuba. Fortunately, the arrival of Pentangeli's brother Vincenzo turns around the hearing.

In a final act of vengeance, Michael orders Dominic to eliminate the rival Families, Agent Mitchell and the treacherous Roth. Afterwards, Dominic visits the Mangano Compound, where he is proclaimed Godfather.
