The best shooting controls on the Wii!

Scarface: The World is Yours is a game that can easily be labeled as "just another port" on the Wii. Unfortunately, with the current prevalence of third-party cash-ins on the system, any game that isn't original will be a target for criticism.

After playing Scarface on the Wii, it is immediately apparent that this isn't "just another port". It is true that the core story and gameplay haven't changed from last Fall's Xbox and PS2 versions of the game, but there has been enough attention given to other areas of the game to make it fresh and very appealing on the Wii.

I can say with all seriousness that the controls are the best on any console shooter ever made. The controls handle like PC shooters where you can freelook (aim and look around the screen at the same time.) Red Steel attempted this at the launch of the Wii, unfortunately, Ubisoft chose to make the bounding box (invisible box that determines the character's turning radius) the entire screen.

If you are looking for a sandbox shooter on the Wii that gets it right, this is the best one available on the Wii right now and probably this year. Be forewarned, this game is a violent and profane undertaking so kids and the weak at heart may not apply. Overall though, the gameplay, setting, music, voice acting, and especially the control scheme add up to a very compelling package. I would highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a great shooter on the Wii or anyone who wants to play a long and vulgar sandbox game in the vein of GTA on the Wii. If this game were a new game on the Wii it would be approaching a 9.0+ game. You can't go wrong.

Its a nice; high five

I played the pc and xbox verison of this game and was amazed. I just got the wii verison today and i'm loving it. It is almost like the game was made for the wii. The wii remote feature is a perfect match for the shooting and the load times are short. The graphics are just right and I strongly feel that if you own a wii, your game collection can't be without this game.

tuck the kids in and plug in the earphones its Scarface

Yes kids its finaly here the port of last years semi-hit Scarface. The game is pretty much unchanged graphicly and the core gameplay is the same but the main gimic of this game is the tight controls. This game has the best use of the wii mote/nunchuck on any 3rd person game for the wii. The camera has 4 levels of sensitivity so its good for any gamer's comfort level. The only problem I have with this game is that it is the most profanity I have ever heard now I'am a High school student and I have heard my share of profanity but comon one of tony's lines is "F*&@ S%@# @$$", and "FU you Colobian F" comon is that really nessacary well it is scarface so i guess yea. Although the profanity is bad the story is good its an alternate version of the end of scarface the movie Tony livs and its up to you to build up his empire. All in all the controls are tight story is nice and sounds/voices are really good. If you are looking for a good MATURE game for the wii this is it

Overkill

Now, it's true that this game is awesome, just like eeryone else has said, but there is a fatal flaw.

While porting this game over to the Wii, they made tweaks here and there and did a fabulous job adapting the Wiimote and nunchuk.

The problem lies in the 3rd level of South Beach. The job on the old version was so easy that they decided to beef up the difficulty and ruined their game by doing so. The level is now unpassable and therefore you cannot progress into the final level of North Beach. Just to let you know I'm not whining, Scarface will let you play the 4th level of South Beach and it fit in w/ the difficulty of the whole game.

It had taken me 2 weeks to get to the 3rd level of South Beach, and now I've been playing the same level for 2 weeks.

This is a perfect example of how to ruin a great game. Avoid buying this at all costs, unless you enjoy repetition.

This game is horrible

Graphics, sound and control are terrible. They hacked the controls to sort of work for the Wii.

Great game!

I hven`t played this title into another console than the wii but it has a great storyline a fantastic adaptation to follow from the original movie and hey even the soundtrack on this game is fantastic, hand picked!

This is a great shooter and mobster game the controls for the wii are perfect making this a very playable game without taking aditional adjustments like on other wii games regarding camera problems. Here You have 4 different camera modes Im sure one of them will suit your needs.

Still my favorite wii game so far remains The Godfather Blackhand edition.

chingas tu madre!

Having seen the movie and never played on any console version.Scarface The World is Yours is an awesome game which the game starts off from the end of the movie scarface which was cool which continies If Tony would have lived instead of making a remake from the movie.Scarface has really good controls and the shooting is very fun with the moton controls.The graphics and cut scenes are amazing and has a really great story.It is one of the most mature games I have ever played and the soundtrack top notch seclection of old and new making the tunes standout mix.The game is a masterpiece and is worth buying and if your a true scarface fan its a must buy..
