Mob Games

Aside from the obvious Godfather, etc. types what other mob-centric games are there?

There's the... rather meh game, Mafia out there.. which was alright I suppose.

And then there's Gangsters\Gangsters 2 made by Eidos that was turn based\real time strategy... trying to bomb city hall was fun.

yeah Mafia was so meh.

There was one I saw on Cinematech earlier today, I don't know what it was, but it looked cool. All I remember is that there's a cinematic in the game where this guy in dress pants and a red pinstriped shirt walks into a fastfood joint and orders a drink, then he knocks it out of the clerk's hands and then it showed footage of the guy and some other guy dressed similarly beating the clerk up. I didn't catch the game's title though.

Oh.. and.. there's the Yakuza game too I guess... different plavour of mob though.

Kingpin is a criminal underworld first person shooter.

Drug Wars is kind of a mob type of game. It's turn based and you set the certain amount of days you'd like the game to last. Then, you're a drug dealer that has to recruit thugs and informants. You have to fight rival gangs, mobs, and the cops. It's highly entertaining if you like drug dealing and turn based games.

Also, I really liked Mafia. I also liked the Godfather game, but half way through it, I accidentally deleted the saves off of my computer. Now, I have to start again.
