Like the other reviewer I am a huge fan of the Soprano's and felt I HAD to get this game. I bought it cheap, so it wasn't that big of a deal. I had an idea of what I was getting myself into since I read the other review and knew the gameplay was similar to Godfather. I just wished it was longer.
Great storyline but clumsy controls. I couldn't see my character a lot of the times during fight scenes. And the most frustrating part was that every character I fought wanted to grab me, which severly limited my fighting ability (always had to shake the guy loose and hope he didn't go back to a grab move). The characters look similar to the actors (who use their real voices in the game), but aren't what I expected.
And after you get "made" in the game, that's it. There should have been a few more levels of play, at the very least. All you could do after that is watch a few mini-clips or play poker with Tony and Chris.
Fans of the Soprano's will like it, but most likely get bored after the first play. Could be good at a party with a bunch of drunk people taking turns on each level. But with the horrid controls, you might end up strangling a buddy with your control cord.
 where is the rest of this game???, 2007-01-09
First let me say I am a huge Sopranos fan. That being said this game was a disapointment. The game play was adequate. The fighting system needs work. The story was well writen but you can finish this game in one day.
Except for a mildly amusing Poker simulator this game has very little replay value.
If you like the Sopranos and have 50 bucks lying around pick this one up.
If you are a huge fan of pixelated nudity pick this game up.
If you want a great game with replay value pick up The Godfather.
