I just recently got the Godfather game for xbox. the basic concept is to "rise up thru the ranks" of the mob and become the Godfather. There is alot of violence in the game ( it is based on the first Godfather Movie) but I really dont consider it that big of a deal because I have never wanted to or been asked to join the mob or mob activities. Its just so far "out of touch for me" the things that I do in the game I would never do in real life and I realize that. Now that being said if I had kids would I let them play it? no! why? because that game is rated M for a reason. But I dont buy that video games make people kill people. If people are unstable enough to start killing other people after playing a video game they had a problem long before they started playing the game.
