Scarface comes to PSP, cancelled on Xbox 360

Posted Jul 28, 2006 at 9:05AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: News, Titles, Games Tags: PS2, Vivendi

Looks like yet another movie/TV adaption has been canned on the Xbox 360 after yesterday's Sopranos. Now it's poor Al Pacino who has received a kick out of the promising next-gen future. Vivendi Games today confirmed that Scarface: The World Is Yours will not be released on the Xbox 360. "Cancelled" is maybe not the right word for this anyway, as a Xbox 360 was never clearly confirmed, but strongly rumored.

But, there's also good news since Scarface is now headed for the Playstation Portable. Presumably more than a stripped-down home console port, the PSP version will get a different name, Scarface: Power. Money. Respect. and will combine turn-based strategy with real-time combat. Players will be able to capture turfs (Hi there, San Andreas) and eliminate rival gangs and crime bosses in the single-player mode. A multiplayer mode is in the works too, allowing four players to take over the streets of Miami simultaneously.

We'll keep you updated on new info on Power. Money. Respect. as we get it. The World Is Yours, the original game, is now set for release on PS2, Xbox and PC in October.

I don't get it, how come you guys aren't posting news about ZOE???

This is big news.

"The Japanese magazine Dengeki announces the development of Zone Of the Enders: Portable,

on the PlayStation Portable. Will it be a new game or another port? The question still

remains. We would have to wait until Konami officially confirms this rumor." -PlayFrance.com

exept for the cancelling part, this is old. Also, the psp version is like a 2d version. it looks really boring because it is 2d

# 2D — j0ey2069 2006-07-28 10:35

what the hell are you taking about 2d...?

IMHO Good ridance an another GTA clone isn't what's going to kill the Ps3 anyway since it has apparently come to this.

# dunt dunt dunt....another one bites the dust — Phantum Zero 2006-07-28 10:45

oh well it looked like GTA: vice city anyways.

# woot — Guest 2006-07-28 10:50

woot

# LAME! — Guest 2006-07-28 10:59

Nooo I wanted it to be just like ps2 version. God damn it.

# So what — Guest 2006-07-28 11:02

No one is going to buy ScarFace except for wannabe gangstas...who cares

# wannabe gangsters?? — Guest 2006-07-28 11:33

I didn't see gangs in the movie, because everyone was partnered with each other but a drug war broke out because no one agreed with anyone else. TM pwned

Well, I'm sure they'll make it backwards compatible for the xbox 360. I bet they didn't want it to look like the exact game so yeah kill ports and just emulate them..like many launch games. I don't have a ps2 anymore but I bet it will be almost the same for the psp.

hahah too bad 360 fanboys!!!

ps3 FTW!

# ... — Shatterdome 2006-07-28 12:21

Yeah because this was the reason I bought my 360...damn them to hell!

# (Hi there, San Andreas) — Guest 2006-07-28 12:29

(Hi there, San Andreas) WTF! HOLE VICE CITY IS A REAL COPY OF THE MOVIE SCARFACE!!!!!!! !! God damn you

# huh — Guest 2006-07-28 12:38

# >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> — Guest 2006-07-28 12:39

LOve Scareface brilliant film!! Better be a good game!!

"All I have in this world is my balls and my word! And i do'nt breakem for no one!"

.....................close but not quite!

# stupid — Guest 2006-07-28 12:42

Ya these guys are real smart... lose (or not make) what could have been a great game on a nextgen console.

then make an extreamly crappy psp game that will end up on the bergin bins a month after launch.

Turn based? cmon man... i smell mgs with playing cards CRAP!! who let the D&D nerd in the board room??? (no offense to anone who likes that stuff)

ok im done venting.

I had high hopes for this game, on any console. now they are smashed

# what? — Vecha 2006-07-28 13:19

"hahah too bad 360 fanboys!!!

ps3 FTW!"

this is not going to the ps3 you dumbass.

# GTA clone? — Guest 2006-07-28 15:06

lol you guya are so pathetic saying this game is GTA clone...ok did you guys know scarface came out in the 80's, 20 years b4 GTA? and this game is considered a GTA rip-off...please GTA is the true rip-off, but i aint complaining cuz i like GTA games on ps2 and psp!!

# Hellz No! — Guest 2006-07-28 15:38

first they F*** up Godfather Mob Wars by making it card based. Now they do the same thing with Scarface. It's a conspiracy against all potential competitors of gta. and by the way, Tony Montana is a drug lord , not a "gangsta".

# lol — Guest 2006-07-28 23:37

i dont realy like playing 3D game son my psp i will ge tthis game for my ps2 and il be like im tony Montana oh and IN YOUR FACE XBOX 360 but it will be good for the ps3

# #18 — Guest 2006-07-28 23:49

You are joking, right? Just because Scarface is an 80s FILM, it doesn't mean the GAME isn't a GTA clone or rip-off. I guess if a developer creates a GTA clone based upon a 50s movie, you'll be saying it's not a rip-off because the film came out 50 years before GTA. *roll eyes*

Try using your brain next time.

# Scar face — RoutineCheck 2006-07-29 00:32

Say hello to my little friend

Or is that PSP

Might be a GTA rip-off but will still play it

# say bye to the little game — Guest 2006-07-31 14:10

game is going to kill the movie, tony will be shame of this

# scarface rules — Guest 2006-10-11 09:37

GTA vice city was scarface - the storyline, the plot & even the music was the same (all apart from the fact that u dount die @ the end).

anyway, i've got a xbox 360 and PSP, so i'm pleased that it'll be coming to at least one of these consoles.

btw: i doubt that microsoft will make scarface (xbox version) backwards compatible with the 360.

# dumb asses — Guest 2006-10-31 08:36

you dumb mother *****ers dont know what u are talking about! Scareface is the best game in the *****ing world because GTA is so lame, just like u!
