Get it? Al Capone? No? Well, our love of silly puns is only matched by our love of deadly, ravenous wolverines. Waitaminute, we hate deadly, ravenous wolverines ...All failed attempts at humor aside, turns out EA's love for the Wii is like a locomotive. A locomotive that rarely makes a stop and keeps chugging along with the desire to cross the country that hasn't been seen since an ambitious duo. Also, the Engineer is drunk.
So how is EA supporting the Wii? By releasing a version of the game based on the Corleone crime family titled The Godfather Blackhand Edition. Changes made to the game include 'Blackhand Control,' which allows the gamer to use gesture-based movement in combat and aim their firearm with the Wiimote. Anyone out there looking forward to some criminal activity on the Wii?

I'm not a fan of EA. Bad labor practices, spyware ridden pc games, lame games.
This game would have to score an 11 out of 10 before I would even consider the slight possibility of a rental.

I for one am glad that some mature rated games are headed for the Wii. I know it'll take more than a couple M games to dump the kiddie machine image(if it can be dropped). But this is a good start.

I agree with gphoenix. Im also glad to see that Nintendo is catering its users with some adult titles.

Wow, so they're going to take the terrible game that was "The Godfather" and tack on some last minute Wii controls. Thanks EA.

Well if y'all want mature rated games make the developers no that you do.For instance you could send an e-mail to rockstar,take-two or even nintendo saying that you want a gta game made for the wii not even a sequel or anyhthing maybe just somthing like GTA:Vice City Stories with the wiimote being used effectively.And if it does get made an its a sucses then who knows gta 5 on the wii.It might not seem like theyl make this game if you say so but if a lot of people send them e-mails theyrs more of a possibility like when nintendo askd the developers of sam & max to make a wii version. Heck i've alredy sent bout 5 emails to all 3 of the developers mentioned above i even sent 1 to thq about saints row now its up all you fans to send 1 as well an make nintendo win the war definitivly
