An okay mob game, something to do one weekend.

User Rating: 6 | Made Man: Confessions of the Family Blood PC
Made Man casts you as Joey verola. The game tells the story of Joey verola through flashbacks as you talk to another kid trying to climb the ranks of the family.

The game chronicles your rise in the ranks of the family and even sends you to the jungles of Vietnam. The game does an okay job of telling the story, although the story itself is nothing to write home about. Although it is cool to see where you connected with the family in Vietnam.

The game play is pretty basic, it plays much like the original Max Payne(altough this game is not nearly as good as Max Payne). You have a variety of weapons at your disposal including a sword, which is kind of cool. You also have something called "kill rush" which is essentially bullet time, although this is kind of useless considering that once you get it you have probably killed the majority of the enemies in the level. It also has a terrible cover mechanic which is essentially useless. You simply run into a wall to cling to it, which isn't the bad part, the bad part is when you try to shoot from cover and end up leaning into the wall and shooting it. I stopped using the cover mechanic after the first level.

The music is actually quite good with decent Voice acting and some good music, although yet again nothing to write home about. The guns do sometimes sound a little bit "canned" and the enemies sound ridiculous.

Overall Made Man is a fun game if you can find it for under $20.00 but don't expect this to fill in for Max Payne 3.
