The Godfather game will be GTA-based
The Japanese magazine Famitsu has published some information about the The Godfather game. The mob game is being developed by EA Games.
The game will be set in Little Italy (New York) in the timeframe 1940-1950. You're member of the Corleone family and have to gain respect in your family. You'll be able to create your character with a new, unseen way. Details about it are not known yet though.
With that unique character you'll be walking around, driving, shooting, and doing other criminal things all in the style of games like Mafia and Grand Theft Auto. A new feature is that enemies can use other persons as a human shield.
If you're hoping of playing this game anytime soon, bad luck, it's only 15% done yet. Let's hope it's worth waiting for.
EA has entrusted senior producer Hunter Smith with this license -- sure to be one of the years most scrutinized movie to game conversions. Smith has worked on the 007 and Road Rash franchises, and in comments with the magazine, he promises a movie to game conversion of a flavor completely different from existing movie to game products (many of which are released by EA in the first place).

EA had wanted to make an open ended game for some time, Smith reveals. He acknowledges that open-ended crime-themed games are having big success in the market right now, but points out that they lack story. "We wanted to make a title with the same [style of] open world, but with a strong background, one where you build human relationships while creating your own story," comments Smith, revealing how Godfather may stand out from the current pack headed up by Grand Theft Auto.
