Godfather, The - Blackhand Edition (Wii) price, value & rarity
Serving the Family sounds almost honourable, until you spell out the daily grind: shaking down shops up close, leaning on the reluctant and methodically removing the competition. The mafia code of honour prettily wraps a career of routine violence, which you pursue carried along by the heady thrill of climbing the ranks of a criminal empire.
