A brand new Godfather II trailer has arrived and it shows off some of the ways players will create long lasting business relationships. Watch as the Don Dominick offers a firm handshake to one of his business contacts. Dominick even blows off some dust from his contacts head as friendly gesture. Yep, Godfather II will be the perfect learning tool for kids who want to make it in the business world.

I saw Godfather II a few months back (while on a yacht) and was pretty impressed with the game. The new Don’s View element offers a whole new way to play on top of the traditional sandbox gameplay.

If you’re interested in more Godfather II stuff, go join the Inner Circle over on the official Web site. There you will find developer diaries, developer blogs, contests and plenty more. Anyone looking forward to the game?

the graphics look awful, looks like a lastgen engine was used for it.

I'm beginning to think that EA did not feel like using money to make a Sandbox game engine for the 7th generation of consoles, but instead kept using whatever engine their PS2/Xbox games used. Mercenaries 2 and Godfather 2 seem to confirm this.

As much flack as people give Ubisoft over Far Cry 2 and Assassins Creed, at least Ubisoft bothered to make 2 new engines for those games.

I'm looking forward to Mafia 2 a little more but I'll probably get this.

At least it isn't the fucking generals engine like they use for Red Alert 3. I'm still trying to get a refund. This is ridiculous.

You could throw people off of buildings and out of some windows in the first one as well. Just had to drag them over to a ledge and push them.

I really want this game to be good...I'm looking forward to it actually.
Actually feeling like you have some kind of mob empire in a city could be pretty sweet...no other sandbox game has really done that well yet.

That guy is Don? Did Michael disappear off the face of the Earth? Fuck this game.

Well, at least the music is faithful to the movie, wich means it's the best thing ever.

Also, I don't know about II, but in the first one, you could make your character look just like Bennett (HRG) from Heroes. If that's not awesome, I don't know what is.

EA is really putting out some amazing games lately. I am getting pretty excited for this. I loved the first Godfather game... I completed it at 100% on my Wii.

The Godfather 2 universe looks to be populated with models from The Sims 3, with animations about as sophisticated-looking. The cars, on the other hand, look like they could have rolled out of Burnout Paradise.

Weird.
