The horse finally catches up with the cart, as EA Making Offer Gamers Can't Refuse ... The Godfather Video Game is the press release officially announcing development of the Godfather game that was first hinted at almost a year ago (story) and confirmed in December (story). EA Resurrects Brando for The Godfather (thanks Mike Martinez) revives the story about reviving the legendary deceased actor to reprise his role as Don Vito, while Caan, Duvall Can't Refuse Video Game Offer (thanks Devster) announces the participation of other actors from the films (Robert Duvall apparently finally getting over the resentment he expressed that the Godfather 3 did not focus on Tom Hagen). Here's a bit on the game that confirms target platforms (including the PC) and a release date of this Fall:
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 2, 2005--Electronic Arts (Nasdaq:ERTS - News) and Viacom Consumer Products today announced a videogame based on The Godfather fiction is under development and will put gamers at the center of the action in one of history's most revered masterpieces. The book by Mario Puzo and classic film by Paramount Pictures serve as inspiration for the game as gamers will join the Corleone family and earn respect through loyalty and fear as they rise through the ranks to become Don in a living 1945-1955 New York. The game is scheduled for release in fall 2005 under the EA GAMES brand for the Xbox® videogame system from Microsoft, PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system, Sony PSP(TM) handheld entertainment system and PC.
Gamers will create their own mob character in the game, putting themselves into the action while reliving classic moments from the fiction and experiencing original missions alongside memorable characters from the film. After a life of small-time jobs and petty thefts the player will be accepted into the Corleone family, America's most famous criminal organization. It will be up to the player to carry out orders, earn respect and make New York City their own.
