We actually weren't that disgusted in The Godfather, to be honest. Sure, the game takes some liberties and it isn't anywhere near the quality of the movies it's based on, but there's a certain bit of evil fun that can be found in beating up a shop owner because they refuse to pay protection money. Now, EA is talking about a sequel.EA boss John Riccitiello talked up the sequel at a William Blair & Company's investor meeting Tuesday, stating that EA's Redwood Shores studio has been working on it. "It's a game that I think we'll be talking a lot about this fall," said Riccitiello. "You can play this game both at the street level, much like a GTA-style game, but you can also play it top-down, almost like you're in an RTS, controlling the strategy of the boroughs so you can see what's going on..." EA's Hunter Smith (he worked on their previous two James Bond games) will serve as the game's producer.

This is awesome news! I thought the game was great and hopefully the areas that needed to be improved upon will now be fixed in the sequel!

Concur, concur! Godfather and Twilight Princess are the only two Wii games I've played all the way through so far, b/c they're the ones that I just enjoyed playing so much that it was a pleasure to hang out with them all the way to the end.
I'm _thrilled_ by this news.
Hooray!!!
