In addition to your don, you also have up to three Made Men hanging out with you at one time. To make matters "worse," you're not alone in your endeavors. They'll run straight into your bullets and "hide" in front of boxes instead of behind them. Part of this is because the enemies are brain-dead. The gameplay is fine, but it's tedious rather than tense or exciting.
You can and probably will hide behind objects, but this isn't hugely necessary for reasons I'll discuss later.
You hold the lock-on button and fire, and the enemy dies in a few shots, though it perhaps goes a bit faster if you aim for the head. Gunplay is easy, and perhaps it's overly so. This ignores the points where you can vault over a waist-high object, but only when the game says you can, and there is no rhyme or reason to when you can and can't. Should you find a ladder to climb, you can go upward, but only then. This may sound like a minor thing, but the game is built around creating completely implausible obstacles that a 4-year-old could get past, but Dominic can't. Looking at the controls, Dominic apparently suffered a tragic accident that filled his shoes with cement because he's incapable of jumping. The Godfather II comes close to doing things right, but it ends up doing almost everything wrong. Government, as the FBI begins to build a case against the Corleones. Naturally, it's up to Dominic to take back New York for the Corleones, a mission that will also take him to Florida and Cuba as he contends with foes ranging from powerful crime lords like Hyman Roth to the U.S. Unfortunately for the Corleones, Aldo's death has thrown New York into chaos, with multiple families and gangs attempting to take over. When the revolution hits, Michael is forced to flee Cuba, and along the way, Aldo is gunned down by a sniper, which leaves Dominic in charge of Trapani's hometown of New York City. In The Godfather II, you play as Aldo's underboss, Dominic. Trapani was the main character in the previous The Godfather video game. Set during the same time as the film, The Godfather II opens up with Michael Corleone and his most trusted underling, Aldo Trapani, in Cuba on the night of the revolution. This might be admissible if it was a good game, but it doesn't even manage that.

Unfortunately, it turns a classic movie into a ham-handed and tedious romp through locations that vaguely resemble situations in the movie. The Godfather II, therefore, has a lot to live up to, and it doesn't come close. Even the original The Godfather is a superior choice for a video game, since it provides a hectic and dramatic backstory.

The movie isn't exactly ideal for the video game medium: The action is light, the talking is heavy, and it really isn't the first movie license that comes to mind for a video game. It's subtle, intelligent and well-executed in almost every regard, filled with tremendous actors, an ageless score, and scenes that remain fixed in your mind for years. "The Godfather: Part II" is a classic film.
