Scarface: The World Is Yours review

Exacting revenge ain't for the weak - Tony Montana is back (again) and this time, he's really pissed

Exploiting a hellacious arsenal of weapons, Tony will gladly mow down scores of enemies to claw his way to the top once again...made all the more enjoyable aiming his guns via the Wiimote. Even more impressive is the remote-plus-Nunchuk chainsaw control combo; to say that it’s satisfying to swing around the controls like your favorite horror movie villain in a roomful of scared college co-eds would be an understatement – we’re just glad (and shocked) it was allowed to be worked into the game.

Artistic annihilation increases Tony’s Balls meter much faster, which allows for the glorious Blind Rage mode. These cinematic killing sprees feature slo-mo death-dealingthat fills up his health bar - and they really help out in a pinch. After awhile, the insanely high body counts blur together in a whirl of bloodletting on an unimaginable scale.

While carjacking about any vehicle in sight is an option, getting around Miami is best when using a Gordon Gekko-style satellite phone to summon minions that immediately show up with one of his stronger, better, faster cars in tow. Every good coke baron knows real estate is the key to success, so buying up properties all over town to be your drug-dealing store fronts drives cash flow. Some of these missions are ferociously tough, but the payoff is a huge, money-producing distribution ring.
