Tony Montana lives to fight another day. Not a normal movie game, a good story picks up the bullets.
Play does match that of the GTA series. Random citizens can't harmed, only run over, however in each city four district gangs scattered over twenty different locations are waiting for a surprise hello from Tony's "little friend". Montana must also rebuild his image by meeting coke (no Pepsi) suppliers for product only to distribute around to small dealers, transactions are a simple mini-game of a rotating the dial to the correct area for maximum payoff and the same with police bribes. Drug running aside, there is profit to be had in purchasing neighboring business which can also be used as drug fronts, which in turn must be protected from rival gangs, ranking up a body count unleashes rage mode, a short, invincible period where Montana can take on an army. That's all there is to be had, meet the supplier, get the product, give it to the street dealers, shoot rival gang members, buy some property, simple and the same for all districts and locations, very slowly will you make it to Sosa.
Looks and sounds are good. Not "Vice City" colorful, the city does look nice; some areas are better looking than others just not worthy of a second drive thru. Tony sounds just like Tony, all the characters from the movie sound like they originally should, though many don't appear because of the film events.
Targeting is a little different than other titles, the target will move out of the line of fire which leads to plenty of missed target or sudden deaths, an easy approach to this problem is quickly holding/releasing the targeting trigger. Car controls are a little stiff; cars don't turn on a dime leading to more than a few car crashes while shooting from vehicles isn't much better than simply ramming into a fleeing enemy.
The World is Yours is a good game given the fact that it throws the general rules of following a movie out the window. Picking up more like the second half, it does deliver on the promise: catching the magic of the motion picture. You play as a ruthless gangster who cuts down anybody in his way, straight to the point. True, the game can be called a Grand Theft Auto clone, but really, what was supposed to be done about a sequel to one of the most violent gangster flicks...a point/click adventure? Never would've made it past a second thought, this product delivers exactly what it promises, to be the best, if only, official Scarface video game.
Last Words: B, a great sequel video game to a popular film.
