So players that want to be Tony Montana will find a unique story more true to history and mythology of the movie which can only be found in Scarface the game. And most importantly while Tommy Vercetti may want to be Tony Montana-heÂ’s not. Pete Wanat: GTA: Vice City pays several odes to the movie Scarface but the story of Vice City is very different from Scarface. Because of this, was it difficult making locations in the Scarface game seem more unique to gamers who might have experienced Vice City before anything to do with Tony Montana's world? So many locations in Vice City seemed to draw exactly from locations in the Miami setting of Scarface (e.g., Tommy Vercetti's mansion, the dance club you can purchase, etc.).Įven though Scarface as a movie came way before Vice City the video game, the latter has a few years head start on the Scarface game. As I was watching it, I began to realize where the overall influence for much of the design of GTA: Vice City came from. Shack: I gotta admit, I didn't see Scarface until rather recently. Pete Wanat: There are numerous locales that appear in the movie and also the game – TonyÂ’s Mansion, Babylon Club, Lopez Motors, Sun Ray Motel, the bar at Coconut Grove, Freedom Town, SosaÂ’s Mansion in Bolivia and several others all creating the world of 1980Â’s Miami from the film. How many movie locations are featured in the game? Shack: Tell us about what went into designing the city of Miami for the Scarface video game. Other than the player keeping Tony alive, the game follows total continuity with the movie.
Pete Wanat: While unfortunately Manny does not survive to see life in the game, Steven Bauer still is a part of the Scarface universe by voicing several roles including a new main character, the Sandman, TonyÂ’s chief supplier of yeyo in the islands. Shack: Have any movie events been altered in order to attract Scarface movie fans to the game? For example, I wish Tony wouldn't have killed Manny he was cool! Or does the game keep continuity with the movie? This is essentially the story of the game. But if the player survives he is left with nothing other than his balls and his word and has to rebuild his empire.
We allow the player to change the history of the film by shooting his way out of the mansion. The player is given control of Tony Montana on the balcony of his mansion with SosaÂ’s men attacking. Pete Wanat: The game starts off in the very final moments of the film. Shack: What's the storyline for Scarface the game? Faithful to the movie, entirely new, or perhaps a blend? Will Tony Montana make a smooth transition from silver screen legend to video game icon, or will Tommy Vercetti be known as the bigger, badder, and better gangster of 1980s Miami? I brought up this and many other topics with Pete Wanat, Executive Producer on Scarface: The World is Yours at Sierra Entertainment. With renewed interest, I contacted a PR rep at VU Games to learn more about Radical Entertainment's upcoming Scarface: The World Is Yours video game due out later this year for PC, PlayStation 2, and Xbox.
this looks just like the place you can purchase in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City!" What was it about this flick that seemed like deja vu-and more importantly, how could it be like deja vu? I'd never seen it before, so how in the.?Īnd then I saw the club scene where Tony dances with Elvira. The first time, and yet, that elusive feeling of I've-seen-this-before stuck with me. Though considered a classic, this was the first time I'd seen Scarface the movie. I asked him, "What is this?" He replied, "Scarface." He didn't look up from the movie, and as I slowly lowered myself into a seat next to him, neither did I for the film's entire duration of over two and a half hours. As I entered his den, he was watching a movie that seemed vaguely familiar to me. About a month and a half ago, I dropped by a friend's house to go for a soak in his spa.
