The first one I am will be looking at is The Godfather: The Don's Edition for the PS3.The Godfather is widely regarded as one of the greatest films of all time, so when Electronic Arts announced that it was making a game based on the license, though it made sense as a business project, it also seemed risky to get a feel for such a adored and well-known story to a video game.

That risk paid off with the PlayStation 2, PC, Xbox, and Xbox 360 versions of the game, and now the game has been released for the PlayStation 3 in the form of The Godfather: The Don's Edition. There are several minor but obvious enhancements and gameplay tweaks in the PS3 version of the game, this is the same game that was released a year earlier on other platforms. That said, The Godfather: The Don's Edition is still a satisfying, lengthy action adventure game, and more importantly, it remains faithful to the classic film while also creating a compelling story of its own. Many websites and video reviews for this video game have averaged near a 7.5 out of 10. Check out below what experts at Gamespot have to say about this game.(Video Review)

The Don's Edition was released back in March 2007, in that time Electonic Arts took a swing at the bat one more time to impress the restless Godfather fans out there. The Godfather 2 was released in April 2009 and this time they really blew it. Poor graphics, gamplay and all around feel for this game as many just tossed it out after the first 5 minutes (Video Review). You see this is the second time around for EA and whenever a company attempts to touch a well known and loved property, they walk into particularly dangerous territory and if you go too loose with the interpretation, you'll get roasted by fans and critics for completely abandoning the source material, too close and there's practically no point in making the game version at all. This was the bullet that Electronic Arts had to dodge with The Godfather II, an action title that attempts to follow some key elements of the acclaimed film. Adding in a healthy dose of strategy to aid running from Dons with their criminal empire, The Godfather II provides a good dose of entertainment, but the lack of difficulty holds the game back from truly becoming a great crime game.
