AWESOME! [Posted on 2001-08-05]
Gangsters is the best game ever! At first it is a little difficult to understand all the buttons, but go through the tutorials and its a breeze. You'll love blowing up buildings and finding new gangsters and buying old cars. It does't get any better than this!

Another Crowd Pleaser [Posted on 2001-08-28]
I am a huge huge fan of simulation games. This game I think topped it all off. Even though I think the sims is the best simulation game ever to go on the market. This isn't to far away. This game actually makes you feel like your a godfather of a huge crime organization. It gives you the feeling that you are in an authentic 1920's new york neighbourhood. This is a must buy for any simulation fanatic.

In gangsters your the boss, you decide
who lives, who dies,nobody does nothin' unless
you give the order. this is by far the best mafia game
out there.so why did i only give it 4 stars? because the
cover of the box could have been done better.So what are
you doin reading this review, buy the game so you can
hit the streets and get into the action.

Very nice [Posted on 2003-07-01]
This game is a very good game. It has many way to approch it so it never becomes boring. Much better then it's sequal Gangsters 2. It is not easy though but not impossible. I enjoyed this game very much and I recommend this game to anyone who likes sim games.

Organize your crime [Posted on 2004-07-26]
An older but classic strategy game where you call the shots as one of several competing mob bosses. You determine each week's orders for your various hoods, from recruiting more hoods to setting up illegal businesses or bribing officials. Your hoods can commit minor crimes such as extorting money from local businesses for "protection," or commit more violent offenses such as theft, arson, assault, or murder. You also supply your hoods with the right weapons and vehicles for the job.

After the orders are given and you hit the street, you can follow the individuals and see they do, giving basic orders with mouse clicks. Will they run into other hostile gang members or the police?

Win the game three ways-abandon crime and go straight, run for mayor and get elected, or destroy all the other crime bosses. The game has a fantastic concept and premise, which provides for a lot of entertainment.

There are several major drawbacks to the game. The first is the clunky interface as you try to administer your orders. It can take forever to sort through all your recruits and see who is worth keeping, and it takes a lot of repetitive clicking and dragging to get all of your orders situated. Also, once the week gets started, it is difficult to really be able to follow all of your hoods, and you can't give them very good instructions.

If you love the idea of running a fantasy mob enterprise, then this is the best game out there. The graphics in games have improved in the last few years, but this game still provides a lot of entertainment, especially for the money. I have to say I like this game.
