:frown: For the sake of Bi***ing, I can't stand Scarface:The World is Yours for the following reasons: #1 Whenever I decorate my mansion with things i've bought and leave,all my possesions dissapear and must be rebought,or in the case of Unique Collectibles,can never be bought again.#2 Its buggy as hell.Textures dissapear and missions constantly screw up and must be restarted. #3 I repeatedly have to do $100,000 deals when I have had $250,000 deals unlocked forever. #4 The stat/price ratio of the vehicles are extremely unbalanced. I buy a 23,000 attack boat with a machine gun, then I buy a $1,000,000 racing boat which is almost slower than the attack boat,only holds one person,has weak armor, and lacks a machine gun(wtf?). #5 You get better drug deals if your gang heat is low, but to access these deals you have to do a mission that raises your gang heat. #6 The missions are so repetitive its ridiculous! Go kill these guys,drive your car here, Go kill those guys BORING! #7 The repetitive use of catch phrases from the movie! If I never hear the word Tiger, You wanna play rough, you die motha f****, or the word Ice cream again it will be to soon! #8 Its impossible to put things where you want them in your mansion. All you can do is spin the object in circles and only 4 rooms in the whole mansion can be decorated or even walked in for that matter. #9 After saving his ass, Sandman offers to sell you his Cocaine plantation, in a cinematic,it ends, and you cant buy it. #10 Your a multi-millionare who can only have one henchman with him at a time and does every bit of dirty work by himself(including taking on 2,000 men at Sosa's mansion).

*whew* That's better lol. If you were kind enough(or bored enough)to read this far,thank you. And if you dont own this game, dont waste your time buying,rent. :D :D
 
well thats what you deserve for buying it
 
Wow, you must really dislike this game!

I've played it, was it worth the purchase: hell no. Was it the worst console game ever?: again, hell no. It was entertaining for a few hours, then it just got boring.

The story, which was writting by a "professional hollywood script writer" bordered on average. All in all, it was not worth the $50 I spent on it. But then, very few games are, for me.
 
I liked it. The reason you can only do $100,000 deals is because you don't have enough money to buy the drugs for the $250,000 deals. The controls were good, the buying system was good, and the drug trafficking/city takeover was very fun. Good game. I never encountered the bugs you did and I thought the vehicles were fairly well balanced.

A lot of your complaints seem to center around decorating your mansion, which really isn't a big deal. It's just a shitty little extra feature thrown in, I barely even touched it. That's like saying San Andreas sucks because you don't like the pool minigame. Only thing I agree with you about is that it makes pretty terrible use of the license, pretty much butchers the original movie.
 
For the sake of Bi***ing, I can't stand people who don't write in proper paragraphs for the following reasons: ... (I can't be arsed)

On topic, I don't think it beats Big Rigs: Over the Road racing. That game is so hillarious.
 
*for the 2nd time of typing this, since I keep hitting the "Back" button on my mouse, thus deleting what I wrote..*

I didn't enjoy the game either. It's not the worse, but I feel it ranks pretty far down there. I think it gave Scarface a bad name. The game had alot of potential, I thought. But they took alot of shortcuts, and just all in all tried to make the game as GTA-esque as possible to appeal to the masses, it seems. This could have been the game people talked about instead of Vice City, IMHO, if they did it right...
 
I can't stop lolling at that video. That is the best thing EVER.

I'm going to buy this game.
 
lol, I loved watching this one other review for that game, "your winner" everytime you win, going up teh steepest curved mountains...wow, it deserves at least a 2/10 :P.
 
For a game that people love, it CAN'T be the worse. Big Rigs rules.
 
it sold a million copies, somebody out there likes it
 
the pc version especially, it's buggy, ugly ..and I stopped playing after a few hours because I was bored ..my brother in law (barely a casual gamer) loved it
 
Yeah, what did you expect??? :laugh:

If you want Scarface done right you play GTA: Vice City. Simple.
 
well most of the people who were excited for it were in my age group ..because we grew up with the film ..you ****ing cockroach ;)

What. The. ****.

That music was horrible, too. But, man, can game developers get any stupider?
 
I enjoyed it on the PC, better than alot of the crap released at the same time
 
at first i thought the music was sort of a parody, then i realized it was just horrible
