Scarface: The World Is Yours
Nobody would call 2006’s Scarface: The World Is Yours a beloved classic. But if you’ve already played the other, more modern open-world crime games of today, like GTA V and Watch Dogs, I’d recommend going back to try this oddball out. This ain’t a remake, but instead an alternative-timeline sequel in which Tony Montana lives at the end of the original film and has to then build his empire, again.
What makes this licensed, open-world game worth playing is just how much ideas the devs packed into it. You have large combat setpieces, drug-dealing side missions, the ability to play as different members of your gang, and Tony can even swim, unlike most early GTA protagonists. There are also some decent mods out there for the PC version that help make Scarface easier to play on modern machines. If you have a weekend to kill, why not give Scarface a shot?
