Godfather - The Don's Edition
"The Don Is Dead" mission:
--------------------------
Before starting this mission, break the windows in the barber shop. This will allow
for easy shooting once the Don is shot. The recommended gun for this and any other
close range shooting mission is the magnum.

Ammunition:
-----------
All the safe houses that you pay for have ammo caches. When low on ammunition or health,
you can go into these houses and restock. They are the orange houses on the map, and most
are in hotels.
Assaulting warehouses:
----------------------
Before going on a warehouse assault have these items: pistol (full ammunition),
Tommy gun (full ammunition), shotgun (full ammunition), magnum (full ammunition),
molotovs (6), and about $25,000. When going to a warehouse, try to blow up the roadblocks.
After that, stand there and shoot at oncoming gangsters with your pistol (headshots are
essential). Then, go in to the warehouse area. Stand behind boxes and shoot the enemies
with the pistol or magnum (again with headshots). Once you enter the warehouse, have
either your shotgun or Tommy gun ready. Most enemies will have shotguns and Tommy guns.
When you kill them, search for the owner. He will have puppeteer hands. Buy him out.
Do not hit or injure him or you will not be able to buy him out and will have to use
pressure. More than likely you will have also started a mob war. Do not bother looking
for bombing business. Instead, check the map for the nearest FBI agent and bribe him.
You may lose $3,000, but it is less risky. You will now have a warehouse and won a mob
war at the same time.
Getting past barricades easily:
-------------------------------
When you go to a hub, warehouse, or compound with people and cars blocking your way,
get a truck and run into the cars and people until it catches on fire. Then, finish
off the other people that are still alive.
When you go to a hub, warehouse, or compound with people and cars blocking your way,
stand close enough that you can lock-on to a person. Take either dynamite or a
Molotov Cocktail and throw it. It will blow up the cars next to the people. Continue
doing this until you have reached the hub, warehouse, or compound.

-------------------------------------
Reach the "Don Of New York City" rank at a 91.5% game completion. Note: you
will get unlimited
ammunition for all of your guns only. Bombs, dynamite, and Molotov Cocktails
are not infinite, and
melee weapons can still wear out.
No heat when stealing cars:
----------------------------
Reach the "Underboss" rank to have no heat when a parked cars
Infinite money:
--------------
Enter a hotel, nightclub, shop, etc. that you own. Smash the cash register
and collect the money.
Walk out the door, then walk back in. The cash register should be fixed. You
can repeat the
process as many times as desired. It is a slow way of getting money, but
sometimes you will
get $10,000.
Easier car chases:
------------------
When you are being chased by enemies in a car, let them drive up on your
side. Usually they will
come up near your rear on your left or right. Then, look ahead and lure them
into an accident.
Usually they will smash into something like oncoming traffic or a wall if
timed correctly. They will
eventually come back and catch up to you, but if you keep doing this they
will eventually blow
themselves up (because you cannot shoot out your car at them).
Easier special kills:
-------------------
In missions where you have to kill an important figure in a certain way
(such as pushing them off a
roof or into a furnace), you can do this easier by luring the enemy over to
the hazard you must use
to kill them before fighting with them. Just avoid them and run over to the
hazard. They will come
over to you. Beat them up a little, but do not kill them completely. Then,
grab them by holding L1
+ R1, and swing them so they have their back to the hazard.
Then, push forward with the Analog-sticks to shove them to their death.
Losing police quickly:
----------------------
If you commit a lot of damage and/or kill a lot of people, you will get
wanted stars. Once you get
enough stars, the police will chase and shoot you. To lose them, just move
to a different area and
all of your stars will immediately go away.
Extorting businesses:
---------------------
If you are having trouble extorting business owners, try destroying some of
their property and/or
hold a gun to their face. For example, when you are trying to take over Good
Eats in Brooklyn,
you can hold a gun to the man's face then reholster the gun and extort. If
he refuses, simply draw
your gun again, lock on, and hold it. Keep doing this until he caves in. Do
not forget to reholster
your gun to avoid accidentally shooting him. In another example, when you
are trying to extort
money from the hotel owner in Brooklyn, hold a gun to him twice, break the
downstairs cupboard,
then finally blow his safe before you beat him into submission. Always buy
available rackets first.
Take a trip around to either buy another racket or go around the block. Do
not attack until you
visit again, and instead of enemy soldiers you will find all your soldiers.
By doing this you do not
have to fight a bunch of enemies and get your vendetta up. If you have not
taken over all the
businesses and rackets, wait until you have reached the "Don Of New York
City" rank. You
will be able to take over anything without having to smash anything up or
"convince" the person
that it is a good idea; they will just say "Yes" immediately.
Robbing banks:
----------------
Depending on the type of bank will determine the easiest way it can be
robbed. The type with
the three guards and one room is by far the easiest, and should be robbed as
often as possible.
Use the following trick to rob it without being chased or even getting past
two shields. First, bribe
the cop outside. Then, go into the bank and choke the first guard by the
door. Next, go into the
vault area and start strangling the guard on the left. The other guard will
come and attack you,
but he will not shoot. He will only hit you with his billy club. Remember to
strangle the man on the
left first because he tends to start shooting with his shotgun if you attack
the other guard. If you are
robbing the big bank, start the same way by bribing the cop outside. Then,
go in and immediately
strangle the guards in the main room. Hurry down to the vault and strangle
the two guards there.
Open the door and blow the vault. Three or four guards will attack you as
you flee the vault. Get
close to them and shoot them with your Tommy gun to perform an instant
execution. After you
shoot them, run up the stairs and move to the right. Then, take an immediate
right to leave the
building where the car is always parked. Get in the car quickly because you
will be shot at when
outside. Take off and you should not be chased once you hit the streets.
After any bank robbery
you must go to your hangout to get the money. The best bank to rob is the
midtown bank, close
to the apartment that the Corleone's give you after you save Michael. You
wll get $50,000 there.
Marlon Brando's last appearance:
----------------------------------
Play the mission when you go to the hospital to protect the Don. After you
kill the first assassin
and Michael Corleone tells you to go to the basement, go foward and make a
left. You should
see a door with Michael Corleone talking to Vito Corleone while he is in the
hospital bed.
Listen to the conversation carefully. This is the real Marlon Brando
talking, recorded while
he was hospitalized.
