Actually I found Tommy to be a better representation of Native Americans than I would have expected from a medium as immature as video games. Even the voice actor Michael Greyeyes (a Plains Cree) was impressed by the thought and design put into his character, moving him away from the stereotypes found in other mediums. Hell the fact that they actually got a Native actor to voice him is pretty progressive to what we got with The Lone Ranger this year.
I hope the sequel ends up coming out, but given that game's past history I wouldn't be surprised if it takes a little while.
