And after that; Godfather 4, Godfather Xtreme, War of Godfather, Godfather Chronicels, Godfather Mobile and then "We're bringing the franchise back to it's roots in Godfather 5, and here's the amazing twist: it's actaully a prequal".

Do we get to gun Sophia Coppola down on some steps? That would be a game in itself.

EA slashes new-game prices by 20% (courtesy of GameSpot)

Will we actually see something similar in Europe as well ? Answers on a postcard...

Not in an industry where every other game is selling itself as a "GTA-clone". The phrasing alone implies it'll be inferior to the title its aping.

EA obviously made Paramount an offer they couldn't refuse...

So they're at least being honest that they are just ripping GTA. It still makes me :( though. Let's look at what sells best and just rip that style! True Crime ahoy!

This is what I hate about EA.

Well duh, its EA after all. Expect Godfather takedown, Godfather revenge, Godfather underground, Godfather p00, etc.

"I can see this one getting a 5 or 6/10 on EG."

Seriously doubt that.

/is off to watch some EG tv... ^_^

Would it be worth skipping the first one and waiting for the second with updated player stats and a reworked frontend?

Judging from the gameplay snippets off Eurogamer and various screenshots of this game... it looks shit. It does make me sad that they are doing sequels, but it was always to be expected.

EA in sequel-making shocker!
it shows how well EA knows the market, idiots will buy anything because of the name it has, they know this will sell well and they know the sequels will sell well

why cant they emulate the fact that GTA was innovative, instead of just ripping it off
oh yeah, lazy cashcow...hmm

Agreed. If you want a game that feels like The Godfather and NAILS that mafia atmosphere, play Mafia instead. Released in 2002, sadly no one ever played it, but it's brilliant.

I played it. It wasn't brilliant. It was dull, full of bugs and quickly binned.
