Scarface

GTA: Vice City certainly took some of its drugs 'n palm trees inspiration from the movie Scarface. I went to the press event for the Scarface game today and can confirm that the debt has been repaid. The game itself wasn't playable, but the footage - all guns, cars and synthpop - bore a huge resemblance to Rockstar's opus. The game itself has been held back until next year, so it can launch on the next gen platforms, but it's obvious that GTA has influenced yet another game. Even the other title shown today - Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction - was a free-roaming affair. Anyone bored of this yet, or are go-anywhere-do-anything games what everyone expects now?
