History VideoGame / ScarfaceTheWorldIsYours

Several of the actors who starred in the original film (including Creator/StevenBauer, Creator/RobertLoggia and Al Israel) return to voice alternate characters in the game, while the plot and storyline builds on characters and situations referenced during the movie. The game takes several cues from the ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto'' franchise (particularly, ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoViceCity'', which centers around a sun-soaked city where the protagonist builds his empire from the ground up, complete with buying property) to re-create various setpieces and encounters from the original film in video game form.

-->--The first line of the game leading to the recap of the movie leading to the shootout

* ForWantOfANail: The premise of the spinoff media: Tony turned around and realized Skull was behind him.

--> '''Tony:''' ¡¡Yo Soy El Diablo!! [[ChainsawGood (Tony breaks out the chainsaw.)]]

* WouldNotShootACivilian: Unlike other games in the genre, you're not allowed to shoot at bystanders. This occasionally becomes problematic if you attempt to lock onto an enemy when a civilian is crouched in front of them as it will lock onto the civilian and prevent you from shooting. "Accidentally" running over them or catching them in the blast radius of AOE weapons is another thing though, and most of the time, they'll woke up and run away. It's also worth noting that the "no bystanders" rule only applies to Tony - switch to his driver, assassin or enforcer, and they're fair game.

''Scarface: The World Is Yours'' is a WideOpenSandbox game based on the movie ''Film/{{Scarface 1983}}'', developed by Creator/RadicalEntertainment and published in 2006 by Vivendi Universal Games.

* AnInteriorDesignerIsYou: Not only can you give your mansion different styles, but you can purchase furniture, souvenirs and other knick-knacks - even Manny and Gina's ash urns - and choose where to place them. Humorously, placing the items is done to a Muzak soundtrack - including a version of "She's On Fire".

* {{Player|Mooks}}/PersonalMook: The Assassin, Enforcer and Driver. The Assassin is featured in one of Tony's Story Missions (U-Gin Shotgun Bar) but otherwise they are each intended for a specific purpose.

** DarkChick: The Diaz Brothers and [[spoiler: Pablo {Schefield's assistant).]]

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Sosa can really take a pounding and enemy gang leaders often pack better heat than their underlings.

!Warning: {{Late Arrival Spoiler}}s for the film ahead!

The game is a pseudo-sequel to the movie, and involves a WhatIf scenario where Tony Montana (voiced by Creator/AndreSogliuzzo) engages in the climactic shootout that ended the 1983 film, except ''this time'' Tony survives and escapes, returning three months later to build his way back up and stop Alejandro Sosa for good.

* DirtyCop: The two Vice cops, who in the JustifiedTutorial section below imply that the whole Vice squad is corrupt as well. Fortunately, not only they're (mostly) on your side (as they tend to ignore gang wars and Tony's territorial takeover), should you got to their bad side, you can easily sway the favor to yours.
** This is also the case with non-Vice cops too as there's a mission involving you killing a dirty cop in order to take over the Peninsula Lounge.
** This trope even extends beyond the Miami mainland too. When you reach the islands at around the game's midpoint and meet with Venus for the first time, she will point out that the law enforcement in is pretty thoroughly rotten as well.

* EnemyChatter

* ItsUpToYou: For a drug lord rebuilding his empire, Tony Montana has to do much of the dirty work himself. Even the goons who deliver cars to him proceed to take the passenger seat and leave their boss to drive, and missions that have you take over a rival gang's property only give you one henchman (if any) to help you out. While players can switch to playing as the hired muscle, that is, except for a grand total of one mission, an almost entirely unexplained, optional, plot-irrelevant element.

* NonstandardGameOver: Believe it or not, you can ''still'' let Skull kill you at the start of the game, causing a cutscene which replicates the end of the movie.

* SimultaneousWarningAndAction

* BloodierAndGorier: The film itself was pretty violent, but ''The World is Yours'' cranks up the carnage even more. It's also this compared to many WideOpenSandbox games at the time. Even GTA, for all its notoriety, was pretty light on graphic violence (barring uncommon occurrences such as LudicrousGibs in one cutscene, HelicopterBlender in one cutscene, and LudicrousGibs as a result of combine harvester) with popping heads with sniper rifles being as gory as it got when using firearms (GTA III does have firearms-triggered dismemberment but only on the PC version of the game which was quickly overshadowed by the succeeding games). ''The World is Yours'', on the other hand, allows you to blow off limbs and heads with even the common shotgun and assault rifle. Unsurprisingly, the developer of this game went on to develop ''Videogame/{{Prototype}}''.

* AdaptationalHeroism: A minor example. Chi-chi is killed in the movie because Tony abandons him outside his office. In the game's version of the event, Chi-chi is killed before he can even reach Tony's office, thus making his death not Tony's fault.

* AdaptationalKarma:
** In the film, Sosa and his men got off scot-free after the Skull killed Tony during the shootout. The game allows you to kill everyone in Sosa's organization, [[spoiler:except one of his henchmen who becomes Tony's butler]].

** The same thing applies to Tony as well, since he never gets any comeuppance for the murder of Manny in this version.

* AdaptationalKarma: In the film, Sosa and his men got off scot-free after the Skull killed Tony during the shootout. The game allows you to kill everyone in Sosa's organization, [[spoiler:except one of his henchmen who becomes Tony's butler]].

** This isn't [[Film/LicenceToKill the first time]] Robert Davi has played a ruthless Latin American drug lord.

* HyperactiveMetabolism

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: While you're playing as Tony, he will refuse to shoot any innocents due to his strong (if twisted) moral code. Of course, nothing's stopping Tony from terrorizing the living crap out of those innocents by beating them up and [[DieChairDie shooting anything and everything that looks breakable]] as well as doing hit and runs (and taunting them). Once you've bought one of his henchman (Driver, Enforcer and Assassin), there's nothing stopping you from taking control of them and going on a killing spree. Also, the chainsaw lets you cut off specific limbs, so you can either end it quickly with a decapitation or chop off their arms and legs, letting them suffer.
