If there were a 'Lads Top Ten Films' list, along with The Italian Job, The Godfather would surely be on it.

So it's thanks to EA that we'll soon be able to threaten and extort our way to the top of a Mafia family when they release The Godfather in the Autumn.

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.

Featuring non-linear action-adventure gameplay, The Godfather will offer gamers countless choices for solving the family's problems with brutal violence, skillful diplomacy, or a cunning mixture of both. From mob hits and bank heists to drive-bys and extortion, step deep inside the world of The Godfather where intimidation and negotiation are your tickets to the top. Players will use their powers of loyalty and fear to earn respect through interactions with characters in the world. Decisions made by the player in the game will have lasting consequences, just as it was in the mob underworld featured in The Godfather fiction.

Superbly, James Caan and Robert Duvall have granted their likenesses to be used in the game as well as recording new dialogue for the it. And if that weren't enough, before his death, Marlon Brando granted his likeness to the game and even recorded voice sessions for game dialogue.
