Scarface Part 2

4 Rating: 4, Useful: 0 / 0

My two problems with this game:
1- no character jumping
2- as a PC gamer I like to customize my keyboard configuration but this is just like True Crime, you can't remap the board. THIS IS AN UNFORGIVEABLE CRIME AGAINST PC USERS!!!
Other than that, the game's premise is completely unique. It's far from a GTA clone although this game could have taken a lesson or two from the series. If you want a more realistic crime drama try this one, if you want random acts of violence, try GTA.

Kinda like GTA: Vice City

A lot of elements in the gameplay are very similar to Vice City but then again, a Vice City had a few relations to the original Scarface movie. Differs from Vice City in how much more vulgar it is, bad language and drug use!

Not the greatest of games.

This game is full of adventure. If you were always a big fan of "Scarface" the movie, you have to buy this game.

My husband has been playing it non-stop. He's having a blast!

The different scenes are never ending. There's tons of different music for every scene. Makes you think you are really in Miami!

Great game, but a little difficult for a PC. You are using keys that are too close together for shooting, along with a joy stick and your mouse.

As a video game, excellent. As a PC game, a bit of a challenge.

I was like almost everybody else...

but now its time to say gooodbye. Having been a big fan of Rockstar Games with GTA 3, Vice City and the well known yet controversial San Andreas being my all time favorites Scarface: The World Is Yours puts all of them five feet deep. Vivendi Universal was originally going to released this in 2005 but halted the production. From what I can see they knew having patience would be worth it in the end & to not make the same mistakes as other movie gamnes such as Terminator 3 Redemption. The stats show. In just a month and half after its release a million copies worldwide were sold. I cant name another game that has done that in a short amount of time. Any way just an introduction let me get into detail.

What Happens When The World Is Yours And Then You Lose It?
The game starts with where the movie ended. Tony takin on Sosas men all by himself.But Tony Montana dont die so easy. Bury those cockroaches and dont forget to make a quik turn around and take out the hitman with the double barreled shotty (you should do that first actually). Like Driv3r with the amazing car explosion effects. Scarface does an even better job at it. Overall this game was meant to have be a landmark and as I said before: IT IS.

PC version:
I notice many reviews on here have had difficulty with the game play.
In the beginning yes Id have to admit the controls either cant be remapped or remap themselves. Once youve beat the game 100% they will stay the same as default instead of two actions being shared with one button (that is your using a controller).

Overal Scarface: The World Is Yours is #1 and it will be sometime before another game tops this classic.

Vivendi Screws Up Another Franchise

The only thing that worked properly in this game was the installation. There was obviously no QA or beta testing for this version. The mouse controls are so out of whack I couldn't even get past the tutorial let alone the first level. Call me cynical, but I think this was done on purpose to get people the buy the console versions. It's really sad because I really wanted to play this game due to the "what if" storyline. First Leisure Suit Larry now this. Burn in hell VUG!!

Not just a Rock Star rip off. Scarface is a good shooter, drug dealing, movie look a like game. Very entertaining and challenging many options with in the game.

My experience during play was complete emergence, everything was so real I felt as though I was Tony. This game has it all, including humor. Another great thing about this game is after 100% completion, you can continue to play and have lot's of action and fun, especially with the surprises you aquire upon completion. I have played a lot of games and along with the free roam experience,the A-I and mission challenges I put this game at the top of my game playing.

Best Game Ever

Can't shoot through chain link.
Tony talks too much when ordering a car when he is about to die.
Can't tell good guys from bad.
Can't or hard to stop the music or choose songs. Unintuitive interface.
Can't use rage when in vehicle.
Can't stop control from returning to center so it fights with mouse.
Proximity AI bad as things get hit by Tony and car when they should not.
Can't shoot high from boat so helicopter is a killer.
If mouse is moved fast game can't see in map mode, must move it slow.
Firing slows at worst times.
Car can not do donuts in forward but can in reverse.
Firing gets stuck on sometimes so you can't stop shooting.
AI is generally dumb.
Spoils of war are left in hard sometimes impossible to get to places.
Can't climb almost any little thing.
Car smashes to a stop on some curbs etc.
Can't smash chain link with anything.
Music turns back on after almost any action.
Smoke comes from undamaged vehicle sometimes.
Helper AI dumb. Can't figure out where to walk.
Enemies appear from thin air.
Enemies in trucks return after a few seconds when on island.
Can't figure how to get to trunk on boat.
Sometimes car gets delivered to home instead of Tony.
What to do when 2 options for 1 control not explained. (trunk, get in car)
Can't aim to rear of vehicle with mouse when moving forward with keyboard.
Parked vehicles disappear.
Can't see crosshairs if background is same color. (smoke)
Sometimes when you collide with the smallest part vehicle your car sticks.
Only one save game space.

This is an on going list but you get the idea. Most of this could have been fixed if the game would have been ported better from console.

Even with all this the game still gets a 3 star rating because it is fun to play.
