Godfather Game?

A report on HomeLAN Fed (thanks Frans) has word that Electronic Arts' CFO Warren Jenson revealed that the company is at work on a game based on the trilogy of Godfather movies during a presentation at Bear Stearns. No details such as target platforms or even the game's genre accompanied the revelation, though the EA principal did say he expects the game will earn a "M"ature rating.

3 was a good movie in its own right, just not when compared to 1 & 2.

Wierd, Im midway through Godfather Part 2 as my "dvd to watch when going to sleep" and they bring this up.

1 and 2 were GREAT movies...3? Um...3 wasn't, really...


no doubt it's really just an upcoming expansion for "The Sims2"

That's a actually a cool idea...especially since there's already mobs in Sims Online...

FYI, there is already a GODFATHER game. I remember playing it on the PC, like 10 years ago (or more).

...but then it would be GTA.

Also, isn't that basically what Mafia was?

I'd buy it just to play Sonny Corleone and kick his brother-in-law's ass all over the street.


I love that fake punch James Caan throws, about 2/3s of the way through that fight...the camera clearly shows the guy missing by a good foot or so...

They could at least try to something not derivative by attempting an RPG out of the damn thing. I mean, the movies were in some cases better than the books, but I can't imagine this game being anything other than a soon-to-be Walmart $10 double CD deal.

And i bet the game sucks, does no justice to the film and is just there to cash in from it.

Dont hate the player, hate the game.

I sincerly hope they don't do this, not to the GODFATHER MOVIES!!! There are certain movies they should never consider making into games and this is one of them! What's next a 'Passion of the Christ' game?!?!

Just watch out - if you see any oranges in the game, it means somebody's about to die
