    The PC version of this game is so terrible that it's unplayable. I can't even successfully navigate through the tutorials, the controls are so insensitive and broken. The mouse sensitivity is such that, in order to pan 360 degrees, you would need to move your mouse -- literally -- across 20 feet of desk space.

The mouse sensitivity is such that, in order to pan 360 degrees, you would need to move your mouse -- literally -- across 20 feet of desk space. It takes my entire mouse pad just to get this guy to turn a few degrees to one side. If you expect the options menu to let you change anything besides the screen resolution or the sound volume, be prepared for disappointment. There aren't even any ini files to tweak to make any of this better. This game is an utter piece of crap which has shamelessly capitalized on the popularity of a movie that people loved. I have lost respect for Pacino just for the fact that his name and face are attached to it, even though he had nothing to do with the game other than that.… Expand

    Scarface-The world is yours, named from the scene in the movie when Tony is sitting looking up at a Pan Am Airlines sign showing there airline ad slogan. "The World is Yours" Travel Pan Am.

    I really love the atmosphere this game has. The music, the voice acting, and the overall feeling is 10/10, but the flaws seriously hurt this game. If they just made the car-handling better and fixed the awkward, sluggish controls, this game would be 10/10 material. Too many problems for a patch to fix, as far as the typical patch. Man, this game could have been golden.

    Alright game. Tries to improve on some areas of GTA: Vice city. On a modern computer it runs fine in 2008. Sets a good atmosphere. The side missions get repetitive very quickly. Just doesn´t seem as polished as Vice city.

    This game is badassssss. This is a game that can rival any of the Grand Theft Auto series. All the killing, money, cars drugs and women you can play with. Not to mention you get credit fopr shooting people in the balls. The only complaint I have is the lack of adjustability of the keyboard controls.

    Horrible game that still managed to make a large profit thanks to a massive marketing campaign (BET spent an entire day airing nothing but ads for this game). This is the sort of game that is ruining the PC gaming genre by encouraging developers to make half-baked products that capitalize off of popular movies.

    Wait for a patch before buying the PC vesion of Scarface: The World Is Yours. Right now it has just too many frustrating bug like: poor frame rate (FPS), poor HDTV support at 768 resolutions, not able to remap keyboard controls keys, poor joystick support, mission bugs preventing you to go to next mission... just to name a few.

    One of the best games i've played in a while. This game has a good story, gameplay is really good and the voices sound pretty spot on to those who played them in the movie. Have to agree though that the mouse sencitivity lacks a bit and the keys are a little hard to get a hold of... but if your a gamer you'll get the hold of them no worries. Worth checking out!

    This games kicks ass in so many ways! Ya its alot like GTA but, hey, think about it. Since Grand Theft Auto was the first game of this type every other sandbox game is gonna seem like GTA de-ja-vu.

    Except for one thing. I am not able to complete a boat drug mission over and over again. I get the drugs past the pirates, past the police and to the warehouse, but as soon as I go back to the warehouse to distribute them, a message appears that says "Mission Failed". I have completed this mission several times before with no problem bu tnow it's not working right. Any help out there?

    The PC version has some major problems. First the controls are really awkward and not remappable. In addition, the mouse sensitivity is horrible. You have to pick up your mouse 3 times just to turn your head because of the slow response (even at the highest sensitiviy setting). In additional there are awkardness in the controls because this is a console port. You use keys for everything. The PC version has some major problems.

In additional there are awkardness in the controls because this is a console port. You use keys for everything. No pointing with the mouse to navigate the menus. Apparently a lot of people are having problems with the game running properly on their PC's but I haven't really had any problem. I did notice a little slow down with a lot of things on the screen at once however, which for the quality of these graphics, seemed like bad coding. These complaints have been made already to Sierra and supposedly a patch is coming. If you're expecting a decent manual forget it. Basically the manual is 3 pages and totally useless. There are more pages of credits in the manual than instructions (I kid you not). The in-game help is useful though. Unfortunately things like being able to save the game into anything other than slot 1 still eludes me. I'm assuming this is broke too. As far as the game content itself, I'm really enjoying it. To me, it seems to be very much like Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas with a few changes here and there. It's fine with me because I really love the GTA series and adding the whole Scarface thing into it just makes it better. The voice acting and sound is awesome in this game. Better than the GTA games. The graphics are about the same as the GTA games, which is kind of a shame because those games are much older. I assume this is because the PC users are suffering because of the limitations of the consoles and the coders don't want to rewrite any code for the port. All in all, if you liked the GTA games and/or like Scarface this is a game worth your attention. If the controls weren't all screwed up and bugs so prevalent in the PC version I would have given this game a 9.… Expand

    The combat is pitiful. The mechanics really show how bad they are in rage mode. But this game isn't about the shooting or gun play or the driving. It's not a GTA clone either.

    in the end it's a very enjoyable game that took me 20 hours and 27 min to complete and the best thing ever about da game is that feeling of being tony montana and feeling like a real boss especially when u got to control people with u and that rage which made the feeling of boss power great

    Game starts good but later on you realize that there are only like 10 missions in the story and to be able to play a mission you have to grind for even a hour on end. Controls are good in my opinion.

    Игра вызывает весьма неоднозначные чувства. Возникает ощущение, будто бы авторы очень торопились, чтобы успеть к рождественскому сезону.
    Из понравившегося:
    - возможность приобретать недвижимость. - боевая составляющая очень занимательна. Работает удобная система автоприцеливания, а персонаж может использовать в качестве укрытия элементы экстерьера, стрелять из-за дверного косяка и т.д.    Игра вызывает весьма неоднозначные чувства.

    - боевая составляющая очень занимательна. Работает удобная система автоприцеливания, а персонаж может использовать в качестве укрытия элементы экстерьера, стрелять из-за дверного косяка и т.д. Перед тем как отправить злопыхателя в Страну вечной охоты, его разрешается поругать и даже припомнить парочку горячих фактов из биографии его мамочки.
    - Тони, стреляющий и одновременно изрыгающий проклятия, выглядит весьма колоритно.
    - история достаточно интересна, хоть и не богата неожиданными поворотами. Перипетии сюжета раскрываются в роликах на движке игры, и здесь главный герой буквально приковывает к себе наше внимание - он нарисован, анимирован и озвучен просто великолепно.
    - замечательный саундтрек, отличная озвучка.

    Минусы:
    - многие районы в городе соединены между собой только одной дорогой, все остальные трассы играют чисто декоративную роль.
    - графика устаревшая даже для 2006 года. Низкая детализация, некрасивые текстуры.
    - побочные задания однообразны и быстро приедаются. Однако их необходимо выполнять, чтобы зарабатывать деньги и «уважуху» и продвигаться дальше по сюжету.    … Expand

    Gameplay gets repetitive after some time. Missions are the same and wanted level system sucks.

    Still, buying some stuff, gunplay, atmosphere and weapon sounds are cool.

    Worth a tour if you really loved the movie, but maybe less so if you've already played the hell out of Vice City. We can't really blame Scarface for the familiarity of the setting, but the fact remains that we've been here before.
