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.

Fantastic game but the controles are preset and can not be reconfigured.I am used to configuring the controles a certain way and could not get used to this setup.I guess it is like the old saying ( You can't teach an old dog new tricks )I am a gamer and this is the first time I have seen this.Hope this is not the way of the future in games.But SIERRA comes up with a lot of weird stuff.

This is one of those good titles you probably never knew existed. Yes, the graphics are dated but there's something about Tony Montana and running coke that makes this game fun. This game is quite challenging even to the most able of gamers. It has over 20 hours of single player time (doing everything) but no multiplayer. It is has a lot of similarities to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (similar graphics, both placed in Miami in the 80's, both involve a really big mansion, and both have good music). As for the story, it takes place after the events in the movie. You are basically trying to regain control of your previous empire.

It's a fun game and is at least worth trying.

One of my favorite games of all time. I like it better than all GTA games except maybe GTA4.

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.

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.

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.

This is a great PC Game.
Hours of enjoyment.
Everything i thought it would be.

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.

Really slow and it takes 30 minutes to get up a flight of stairs and it wont stop shooting and scarface is reely slow and he talks to much when hes about to die
