Made Man: is a third person shooter video game
developed by the UK company SilverBack Studios and published by Mastertronic
and Aspyr for PlayStation 2 andWindows. The game is set in the New York
underworld of organized crime in the Mafia. The storyline is written by crime
author David Fisher with collaboration from former mafioso Salvatore
"Bill" Bonanno.
The player
assumes the role of Joey Verola, a former soldier, as he is indoctrinated into
the world of American organized crime and must relive his life - every moment,
every kill - as he rises through the ranks to become a made man. The storyline
spans three decades of his life, from the horror of Vietnam to the urban jungle
of Brooklyn.
Made Man
tells the story of Joey Verola, a longtime Mafia crony who's on the verge of
being "made." Most of the story is a series of flashbacks that Joey
recants to a friend while they drive through New York. What, exactly, the whole
plot is actually about is never terribly clear. The game jumps around a lot,
and the cutscenes aren't scripted well enough to properly extrapolate on what's
going down. One minute you're hijacking a truck in North Carolina; the next
you're in the middle of the Vietnam War. The in-between bits of narration try
to set all this up into an overarching tale of gold buried in a coffin and
rival families in cahoots with federal agents to take you down, but it's all
very disjointed and, after a while, insufferable. The lone positive is that
Joey is voiced by a solid actor who seems to be channeling Goodfellas-era Ray
Liotta at times, and he sells the character as best he can. But every other
actor hams it up so badly, and the plot itself is so scattered and
unintelligible, that the whole thing is downgraded to somewhere between
Godfather III and Corky Romano in the lexicon of mob fiction.
Joey is
forced into the world of crime when he saves a don's right hand man in Vietnam.
The game's missions are a series of flashbacks: as Joey is being driven to the
don's place to be made he reveals to his nephew how he rose through the ranks.
The title was
originally under development at Acclaim Entertainment's Manchester studio under
the name of Interview with a Made Man. When Acclaim collapsed, employees from
its studio reformed as SilverBack Studios, and backed by Fund4Games, continued
to work on the game. The title was shortened to Made Man and a planned Xbox
conversion was dropped.
After the
release of Made Man, members from the team reformed as the Manchester office of
Vivendi-owned Swordfish Studios working on the console versions of World in Conflict.
When, in turn, that was sold on during the Activision Blizzard merger, it
became the Manchester office of MMOG developer Monumental Games.
