"Omerta - City of Gangsters is a simulation game with tactical turn-based combat where players take the role of a fresh-from-the-boat immigrant with dreams of the big life who must work his way up the criminal hierachy of 1920's Atlantic City." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLZ5DroSX-Y It's like Chicago 1930 (or whatever it was called, an awful game with amazing graphics) had a bastard child with Shadow Watch (decent game but much too shallow) and Omerta was the result judging from that clip. Should be out in a couple of weeks at gog.com - aren't they supposed to be in the GOOD and OLD games business?

And GOG hasn't been "Good Old Games" for some time, now it's just... GOG. -- -craig

There's a playable demo but I haven't been able to make it work, once it starts to load (the bullets in the barrel animation part) my computer freezes up solid. Drivers, directx, everything's up to date but I'm using good ol' XP 32bit which is probably the reason. My Win7/64 machine is out of commission for the time being unfortunately.
