  1. The combat is at least fun initially and the storyline will keep you playing until the end. Fans of the series should definitely play through this title.
  2. For the sake of the people in our profession, please quality check titles before publishing them. If at any point in the testing you sense an urgency to find something sharp and jab yourself with it repeatedly then make a mental note that it’s the fault of a poor game.
  3. It's not really much of a game, unless you really like watching cut-scenes and fighting. [Jan 2007, p.65]

    Road to Respect does a disservice to the series. A linear plot, flawed combat and conversation system hinders the title, and a lack of difficulty doesn't help the replayability factor at all.

  2. Actually not that bad. Great voice acting by the actual cast by the show. It does well to tie in with the show as well. However it lacks replay value, Its over quick, You replay the same lame objectives over and over again - It gets boring. Expand

    I beat the game in 4 hours. Very disappointing. The game lacks the "free roaming" of GTA, Scarface, and Godfather. Equally disappointing.

    Completely and totally under developed. The only thing that was entertaining of this game was the cast of the Sopranos voicing the game. I finished the game in one sitting in under 6 hours. The moves are entertaining, but not enough to justify buying this game. It seems obvious that the game worked extensively on the script of the storyline and characters and not the actual development of the gaming aspect. I would have rather watched this as a five or six episode arc on the show than play this on the playstation. Expand
