The Godfather: Blackhand Edition, reviews are coming in

godfather wii boxIGN – 80/100
A great first step on Wii, as it uses more than 25 gestures, IR aiming, and has a ton of features above the original game in the form of new items, missions, gameplay modes (favors and blackmailing specifically), and RPG elements.

Official Nintendo Magazine UK – 80/100
The Godfather is the perfect example of how Wii controls can make an average game better. It’s a shame it doesn’t look better, but this is still highly recommended for action fans. [Apr 2007, p.89]

Yahoo! Games – 80/100
We haven’t been bowled over by most of the Wii-makes hitting shelves so far, but The Godfather is a definite exception. The controls and extra content more than make up for the fact that the game already looks visually dated.
