14 DAY TRIAL // This summer, Vivendi Games' Sierra Entertainment division is bringing Scarface: The World Is Yours to the Nintendo Wii platform. The smash-hit video game based on the 1983 classic film by Universal Pictures gets motion-sensitive control scheme and optimizations for the Wii console. The game has already sold more than 1.5 million copies worldwide on other platforms so you can only imagine what a Nintendo Wii implementation will be like.
Scarface: The World Is Yours for Wii will include graphics and gameplay optimizations, a control scheme taking full advantage of the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. Sierra Entertainment's title was born through a licensing agreement with Universal Studios Consumer Products.
Cindy Cook, chief strategy and marketing officer for Vivendi Games is very proud of the game's implementation on Nintendo's platform: "Bringing Scarface: The World Is Yours to Wii is an exciting opportunity to take an already amazing game and add an incredible twist, thanks to the Wii console's unique Remote controller abilities. Well, obviously Adding motion-sensitive elements to a game that already includes an incredible celebrity cast, Hollywood production values and non-stop action, delivers a gaming experience unlike any other, truly bringing the world of Tony Montana to vivid life."
The story is quite simple actually, yet playing it will prove to be too much fun to bear: players deep into the seedy underbelly of the 1980s Miami as the famous Tony Montana, whose role is played by Al Pacino. Players are challenged to re-enact the climactic mansion shoot-out from the original film, but in the game, Tony fights his way out of the mansion and survives. Returning to Miami, Tony must rebuild his fallen empire and wreak vengeance on his enemies.
The game's voice cast is made of more than 50 celebrities from movies, television, sports and music. Scarface The World is Yours boasts a soundtrack of more than 120 licensed music tracks from the 80s and today, as well as the original motion picture score by Giorgio Moroder. Remember, it's coming in summer so you might as well raise money to buy a Wii if you don't have one, 'cause this one's a classic...literally.
