Scarface: The World Is Yours Image
  • Summary: In a complex world filled with excess and greed, players can take the role of Tony Montana, one of the most ruthless gangsters ever depicted on film. Highly acclaimed screenwriter, David McKenna, has written an original event-driven storyline for the interactive game that leads the player through a sordid underworld. The Scarface video game creates a gameplay environment that authentically recreates the historical time period of the film, touching on politics, news items and events of the day. Players travel through the steamy, often violent streets of Miami, the irie islands of the Florida Keys, the Bahamas and various other locales and interact with a world full of seedy and dangerous characters to procure information, negotiate business deals, smuggle contraband and avoid rivals and DEA on a mission to rebuild their fallen empire.

    It does a whole lot to fix many of the problems with other games in the genre, and it does an absolutely fantastic job of bring the world of Scarface to gamers.
  3. Scarface's attitude is enjoyable and infectious. [Dec 2006, p.94]

    Except for one thing. I am not able to complete a boat drug mission over and over again. I get the drugs past the pirates, past the police and to the warehouse, but as soon as I go back to the warehouse to distribute them, a message appears that says "Mission Failed". I have completed this mission several times before with no problem bu tnow it's not working right. Any help out there? Expand

  2. The combat is pitiful. The mechanics really show how bad they are in rage mode. But this game isn't about the shooting or gun play or the driving. It's not a GTA clone either. To understand this game you have to treat it as a package, because there's absolutely nothing which it does well. But what makes it worthy is that it's addicting and fun to play. No other game offers you a 'balls upgrade'. I've also never seen any game where drug dealing and money laundering is done better. You can spend money on guns, ammo, cars, boats and furniture for your mansion. It's good for a short period but once the novelty wears off, you'll start to realise that it's a big waste of time.

    The PC version of this game is so terrible that it's unplayable. I can't even successfully navigate through the tutorials, the controls are so insensitive and broken. The mouse sensitivity is such that, in order to pan 360 degrees, you would need to move your mouse -- literally -- across 20 feet of desk space. It takes my entire mouse pad just to get this guy to turn a few degrees to one side. If you expect the options menu to let you change anything besides the screen resolution or the sound volume, be prepared for disappointment. There aren't even any ini files to tweak to make any of this better. This game is an utter piece of crap which has shamelessly capitalized on the popularity of a movie that people loved. I have lost respect for Pacino just for the fact that his name and face are attached to it, even though he had nothing to do with the game other than that. Expand
