    That’s a hard one with all the advances we had with VR and stuff. But at the same time it’s easier as a child to get immersed into a game.

    That said I think I had the best immersion on the Wii and I can’t decide between The Godfather: Blackhand Edition and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. But I think I have to go with the former.

    Melee combat in The Godfather is really really well executed. You can grab enemies, throw them around, smash their heads against tables, shove them off of rooftops, garrotte them and of course punsh and shoot. And it all felt natural with the movement controls and not at all gimmicky.

    The Force Unleashed was similar with a little less emphasis on the movement controls. I discovered how well they were done when I picked up the second game of the series where the whole immersion was gone and it felt just clumsy to play. Same with the first game on PC, which I tried the other day. It felt totally awkward and clunky to play with a normal gamepad.
