NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Typical of EA taking a classic movie like the Godfather and attempting to make a game out of it.

The Godfather is one the greatest movies ever, and to even attempt to make a game out of it is the worst possible move in my opninon, and the sad thing is that EA are gonna make shiznit loads of money on this game with the Godfather franchise. The Godfather is a classic movie that should be left alone.

Yeah this game is making a buzz for some time. Normally, I wouldnt mind a game conversion. But the fact that its THE GODFATHER and, more importently, its EA who are doing it is making me a little worried.
I'm pretty sure the millions (if not billions) of the fans of Godfather will blow the heads' of the devs with a mafia-regulation sawn off shotgun if they dont make it PERFECT !!!

I just don't trust EA to make this make perfect. Like most if not all of EA's games, they're gonna be making this game for the wider market, so they make the most possible money.

Don't get me wrong, EA do know how to make a popular game that will hit the mass market. I really hope they don't f***k this up!!!

actually, i have the 3 parts of The Godfather movie and ive never watched them

, but the game really looks so good, seems like its already finished but we will have to wait till 3/10/2005 to get it. and btw i dont think that EA will suck in making that game.

EA makes the best games in the world. This gonna be a very coll game. I have already read an article in a hungarien magazine. There are some brutal pictures in it.

I would like to disagree with TurboDiesel about the fact that EA make the best games, but this thread isn't about EA, so i won't get into that discussion

Jack all when you compare it to how much Unreal Tournament 2004 required, not to mention all the bonus packs for it, and that was a game released two-three years ago

As usual EA can't think up of their own game, so they're going to flog the weewee out of movies, hopefully it's going to not be like games that have been out before.... The Getaway, GTA, Street Crime, etc and also not just have graphics as it's only appeal

Quite frankly I could give two shiznit about the graphics.... better gameplay, not some lame (through being over-used) gameplay that was started in the early wake of this millenium and never touched since

Well, from what i've seen in gameplay videos, the gameplay is just awesome, you can extort some people by blackhand control, and even execute them after, there are more than 20 execution styles. you can also bribe cops so that they stand in your side, and a lot more, from what i've seen and read, that game will be challenging.

but why is it for +18 only , do it have a lot of Violence or ...... ?why?
