Underrated Game #4: Scarface The World is Yours (2006)

We have played several Grand Theft Auto (GTA) clones and believe that Saints Row 2 is the best, but Scarface the world is yours comes in second. Tony Montana, one of our favorite movie characters of all time, is the main character of the game. The game begins just before the end of the movie, where players get to control Tony and take revenge against those who tried to kill him. The first mission of the game might be the best in the entire game, especially if you've seen the movie.

The game's story is all about revenge, and the game knows it. Unlike other games, the final boss is not too hard to beat. The game tells you to unleash your rage and shoot the hell out of him, making the final fight very satisfying. The aiming system in Scarface is the best we've seen in a GTA clone. You can press L1 to lock on loosely and then move the crosshair within that and shoot at specific spots. The game even distinguishes between shooting the left and right nut, which is unnecessary but cool.

The weapons in the game are cool, and our favorite is the M16 with a grenade launcher, just like in the movie. However, you don't get the best weapons right away; you get better weapons as you progress and upgrade. You can even access your weapons supply from the trunk of your car, which is a cool feature that even GTA hasn't done yet.

Al Pacino refused to lend his likeness to the Godfather game, but he agreed to Scarface. However, he did not supply his voice, and the voice actor did a perfect job, making the sensation of being Tony Montana a great asset to the game. The circle button is used to speak, and you can either just say something to yourself or taunt your enemies.

The downside to the conversation in this game is that Tony is more or less a misogynist, which we didn't like. However, this is how he was in the movie, not to this degree, anyway. Another great feature of the game is being the boss. You have several henchmen at your disposal, and it's fun that if you hang up on them or refuse to help them, their loyalty decreases.

In conclusion, Scarface the world is yours is an excellent game with a great story, cool weapons, and the best aiming system we've seen in a GTA clone. If you're a fan of the movie, you'll enjoy this game even more.
