My review of this game

Rated M for Strong Graphic Violence and Language and for Some Sex and Drug content.

I would say Scarface is my favorite movie.The movie is amazing.Pacino plays a great role as a foul-mouthed cuban immigrant Tony Montana who tries to make it in the Miami drug world during the 1980's.The film was 3 hours long,it was entertaining,had great acting and a great storyline and I loved it!.When the game came out I was excited.However it got a 6.4 on gamespot so I would not want to spend $60.00 on it.I bought it for $20 just recently and I have been playing it.The game changes the ending of the film.(SPOILERS for the Scarface movie) in the end of the movie.Tony Montana died but in this one you get to play as Tony in the final shootout in the mansion and you have to blow away all of Sosa's henchmen including "the skull".The rest of the game is basically you rebuilding your criminal empire and trying to get revenge on Sosa.The game is almost like a Grand Theft Auto clone.You must do missions,buy assets,you can steal cars etc.But it is a bit different from GTA because you cannot kill pedestrians.This is one of the negative aspects of the game.I understand Tony is a man who does not like harming innocent people but it would have been more fun if you could kill pedestrians.There are gang members everywhere and you must kill them to take over their turf.There are drug dealers which you can sell drugs to or kill them.You can also kill the cops.The game takes place in the 1980's and there are only a few songs from the 80's.It has the entire OST of the Scarface film and some other 80's hits but their could have been much more.We didn't really need Reggae or country music.You don't have to be in your car when you listen to music.You can listen to it when you're walking or shooting people.The controls take some time getting used to but their alright once you get the hang of it.Another cool feature in this game is the blind rage mode.There is a "balls" meter on the bottom right hand corner of the screen.You can get "Balls" by taunting people you kill or by driving very close to another car.There are a few ways to get "balls".When your meter is full,you can go into a first person shooter mode, you have unlimited bullets and you cannot be damaged.Every enemy you kill in rage mode will give you +200 health.Scarface The World Is Yours is a good game that's worth playing.
