We've got 30, lines of dialogue in the game - that's days of solid studio work just for Tony's character. It simply didn't make sense to have Pacino doing it. But surely what Coppola said about games trivialising their subject applies equally well to this game - what, for ice, of the movie's underlying anti-drugs message? Remember that Tony's sister gets riddled with bullets because his nose is buried in a pile of coke so big he can't see the approaching gunman.
It may not be a subtle message, yet Weber acknowledges that little of it will make it to his finished game. We do keep a lot of the themes from the movie going though, such as Tony's sense of family and his moral code. He's not a generic thug, so you can't just mow down a bunch of pedestrians - Tony won't let you do that. We had to work around things like that to satisfy the licence owners It's a nice try, but we've seen in-game morality before and it's usually the least important of the RPG stats.
Radical will be counting on its acting talent and a script by David McKenna writer of Blow to influence the mood. This won't appease the nay-sayers with its reformulation of the film's tragic denouement. In this respect, The Godfather almost certainly has the edge.
But what does Oliver Stone, famously opinionated writer of the original Scarface make of it? We're fine with that, really Over 20 Years on, Scarface is still hot property, and considering the film's abundance of guns, girls and creative swearing, it's no surprise that the rights were snapped up for a gaming reprisal. With Al Pacino himself having backed the project, things are looking good for The World Is Yours, but can the game do what The Godfather obviously couldn't, and live up to one of the most iconic films of all time?
Recent play impressions left us hopeful. Last seen floating face-down in a posh fountain, and now alive thanks to the liberal tearing-up of the script's final page, Radical have done an excellent job of perfecting Pacino's virtual guise. Everything right down to his ice cream-obsessed one-liners and even his mannerisms when he speaks are spot-on, and Montana's voice is equally well done - if unlikely to make your gran warm to him. The team at Radical haven't spent the entire time studying Al Pacino's eyebrow movements though - they've also conjured up some genuine improvements over the standard GTA formula.
One particular issue they had with Grand Theft Auto is the large amount of fetching in the game, which sometimes has you skipping across town just to get a pistol from behind a dumpster. In Scarface, some quick side-menu magic has Tony flick out his cell-phone and call his driver, who quickly rolls up the street with your car of choice, loaded full of pump-action goodies thanks to your equally-useful arms dealer.
This is just one example of how Radical is bringing the world to the player. Arguably the most crucial element of GTA's success has been the series' intricate and believable game worlds, and Scarface thus follows suit with its own massive rendition of Miami.
Across the city's four conquerable turfs, one of the most interesting locales is the harbour, where you can hitch a boat and cast-off for some island-to-island drug smuggling action. This kind of gameplay features more as you progress in the game; in latter stages an empire-management screen gives you access to all kinds of details and stats on your business fronts, including the option to fortify them against enemy attacks with security cameras and hired goons. This latter half of the game certainly looks more in-depth than previously expected, and builds on the turf-war concept that San Andreas first mooted, yet failed to capitalise on.
Building further on the drugtrafficking gameplay, there are also sections where you're tasked with making drug deals yourself. When initiating a deal, you're presented with a bizarre pie-chart mini-game thing. Bugger it up and you'll end up in a drug-dealer gun-fight; get it right and the white stuff is yours. It's just like real life, only with more pie charts. The work doesn't end there either you've also got to launder your 'dirty' money throughout the game to shake off cops, and rival gangs are never far away.
In the near-final version of the game, these all seem like genuinely interesting and fun mechanics necessarily entrenched in a rather consoley way, but whether or not they'll be enough to snatch' GTA's throne remains to be seen.
To Say Scarface is reprehensible is an understatement. It's the worst fears of Daily Mail readers condensed into a nugget of abhorrence that's black as night, dense as lead and very rude indeed.
It's also not a PC game - it's a console game that's practically and 1 say practically' when I mean 'completely' impossible to play with mouse and keyboard. The people who did conversion are sucfi monunx'iital idiots that on the save-screen, they have the gall to say, Now saving.
Please don't turn off your PC' as a console hangover. Even my mother knows how to turn a PC off, and let's face it - any game that thinks a PC audience is liable to randomly jab at the power button is far away from home.
Scarface is yet another console intruder into our precious land, and in many ways can only be seen as the very firmament of noxious evil.
Indeed, if you've ever suffered from depression or have felt yourself liable to self-liarm, it woukl the wise to avoid playing the first three-quarters of an hour of Scat face, unless a masked man is holding a gun to your head and reciting biblical text.
You'll honestly hate it that much. Yes, I know.. It surprised me too. Scat face may blankly remove the humour and knowing intelligence of the GTA games it apes making it seem nothing but pubescent, angry and embarrassing , but it also genuinely brings some real improvements to its crime-business template. Boggles the mind, doesn't it? Whereas in GTA, your varied tasks have always felt rather disparate and unconnected, the reconstruction of Tony Montana's fallen empire provides a real sense of ownership and expansion.
Your bank account won t necessarily be continually sky-rocketing, and you really do feel like you're running some kind of business. To take over an area, you have to find local gangs and rout them out. Then start the game by clicking on scarface. Important Information: Abandonwaregames.
