An offer he couldn't refuse...

Last year we reported that the estate of Mario Puzo (the author of the original Godfather books) sued Paramount Pictures and Electronic Arts for royalties in connection with the video game.

Anthony Puzo, Mario's son, initiated the lawsuit for at least $1 million in damages. He claimed that his father and Paramount reached an agreement in 1992 in which Paramount promised his father a "significant share" of revenue from any product incorporating elements of the Godfather saga.

Now it appears the parties have settled on--you guessed it--undisclosed terms.
