[[File:The World is Yours.jpg|thumb]]
▲A [[Wide Open Sandbox]] game based on the movie ''[[Scarface (1983 film)|Scarface]]'', developed by [[Radical Entertainment]] and published in 2006 by Vivendi Universal Games.
The story of the game is a pseudo-sequel to the movie, beginning with the mansion shootout that ended it--except this time Tony knows the shotgunner Skull was behind him. Tony survives and builds his way up to taking revenge on Sosa.
{{tropelist}}
* [[Adaptation Expansion]]: Characters who only got a brief mention and/or appearance in the movie such as Gaspar Gomez, the Diaz Brothers and Nacho Contreras feature more prominently and get a lot more lines in ''The World is Yours'', most of them serving as de facto [[Mini Boss|Mini Bosses]] standing in Tony's way on the road to Sosa.
* [[An Interior Designer Is You]]: Not only can you give your mansion different styles, but you can purchase furniture, souvenirs and other knick-knacks - even Manny and Gina's ash urns - and choose where to place them. Humorously, placing the items is done to a soundtrack of Muzak - including a version of "She's On Fire".
Line 12 ⟶ 14:
* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: Sosa can really take a pounding and enemy gang leaders often pack better heat than their underlings.
* [[Back Seats Are Just for Show]]
* [[Badass in
* [[Beef Gate]]: You can access all areas after the first few compulsory missions. Enemy gangs will have a clear firepower advantage though.
* [[BFG]]: Not only can you use the film-ending M16+ M203, Tony can also fire a SAW while walking and use a four-barrelled missile launcher.
Line 26 ⟶ 28:
** Played straight, however, with the islands. You cannot access them until you get the Float Plane.
* [[Call Back]]: {{spoiler|A spectacular [[Call Back]] with elements of a [[Hannibal Lecture]] and [[Shut UP, Hannibal]] culminates near the end of the game, after Tony has gunned down Sosa's men at his estate and is literally walking into Sosa's living room for the final showdown and highlights the exact moment in the film where the relationship between Tony and Sosa went irrevocably sour:}}

{{spoiler|'''Tony:''' You're going to die Alex, for everything you've done in your entire life.}}
{{spoiler|'''Sosa:''' ''(Laughs)'' What about what ''you'' did? I ''told'' you not to fuck me, and ''you did'' Tony.}}
{{spoiler|'''Tony:''' There were ''kids'' in the fucking car Alex! Innocent Kids! Huh, what kind of animals you've got working for you?}}
{{spoiler|'''Sosa:''' I want to clear something up with you Tony, ''before'' I kill you. When you move 400 kilos a month, it's imperative that you '''do''' kill children. That way, heroes don't get confused and go on ''[[
{{spoiler|'''Tony:''' Hey, Sosa! Maybe it's time for '''you''' to make that crawl huh?}} }}
* [[Canon Foreigner]]: Quite a few in the game who play major roles in ''The World is Yours''. For example Felix, who is introduced as one of Tony's most loyal distributors back when the world was his and helps him in his quest to regain it all back from Sosa. Later on in the game Tony is contacted by The Sandman, a Caribbean coca grower who's shown to be a major competitor of Sosa and joins forces with Tony in his [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]].
Line 50 ⟶ 52:
* [[Every Car Is a Pinto]]
* [[Every Man Has His Price]]: Bribing gangsters or cops to lower Heat.
* [[Everything's Even Worse
* [[Evil Pays Better]]: You have to deal drugs if you want to make money in any reasonable amount of time.
* [[Face Heel Turn]]: {{spoiler|Schefield}}
* [[Fisticuffs Boss]]: Gaspar's head of security and some other characters.
* [[Fix Fic]]
* [[Follow the Leader]]: ''The World Is Yours'' features GTA-style sandbox play.
* [[For Want of a Nail]]: Premise of spinoff media.
Line 60 ⟶ 62:
* [[Foreign Cuss Word]]: You will hear a ''lot'', from both Tony and his foes.
* [[Going Cold Turkey]]: Tony apparently quit his cocaine habit sometime after the game's opening battle:
{{quote|
** Of course, he still has no problem ''selling'' it by the truckload.
* [[Groin Attack]]: Hit locations include "Right Nut". Also the left nut. And the groin as separate region itself.
Line 66 ⟶ 68:
* [[Hand Cannon]]: The venerable Desert Eagle.
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Sort of. Tony's still an unrepentant crook by the end of the game, but no longer qualifies as "evil".
* [[
* [[Hyperactive Metabolism]]
* [[Hyperspace Arsenal]]: Averted. Montana may carry only three types of weapons (four with upgrade) with limited ammo. Where does he [[Trouser Space|hide the bazooka or assault rifle]] is another matter.
* [[I Fought the Law
* [[I Have a Family]]: After Tony finishes slaughtering his way through Sosa's mansion, a random mook appears and begs for mercy using this. Tony offers him a job.
* [[I Shall Taunt You]]: You can do so to gain Balls.
Line 77 ⟶ 79:
** The actual tutorial sequence is ostensibly a historical glimpse into Tony's Cuban army past.
** And there's also a brief tutorial on Cop Heat when Tony gets back his mansion that's skillfully portrayed as movie-style dialogue completely within the fourth wall that's also a [[Call Back]]:

'''"Crockett":''' Hey buddy we're Vice, not some loose knit government agency looking for handouts. You know how this is going to work from here on out, don't you?
'''Tony:''' Fuck You. Mel Bernstein tried this shit on me once, and it didn't work out so good for him you know.
'''"Tubbs":''' Mel? He wasn't a team player, Montana. You did us ''all'' a favor.
'''"Crockett":''' Look Montana, Miami is ''our'' back yard. The people pay us to make sure scumbags like you keep the economy nice and stable. We don't want to get in the way unless you force us to, understand? Our boys in the streets keep tabs on you. You start doing too many things that upset the people, then your Heat goes up. If your Heat gets too high, then we'll be forced to make a house call. So... if you want to keep it cool with us Montana, we suggest you make a donation. ''(Gets in the van)''
'''Tony:''' Maybe you two should go home and donate a little something to your wives, you know? ''(Hands over a stack of $10K)'' Relax a little.
'''"Tubbs":''' ''(Chuckles as the van starts up and takes off)'' We're watching you boy. }}
* [[Kleptomaniac Hero]]: Subversion.
Line 100 ⟶ 102:
* [[One Bullet Clips]]: Played straight on foot, subverted in a driveby-capable vehicle.
* [[One-Man Army]]: Shit, man! After losing all his friends in the movie out of his stupidity Tony is all fuckin' alone now~!
* [[Player
** The Assassin can reduce Tony's Cop Heat by pulling off a hit and getting away in time.
** The Enforcer lowers Tony's Gang Heat similarly.
Line 116 ⟶ 118:
* [[Super Mode]]: Blind Rage, need to fill up meter leads to overlap with [[Limit Break]].
* [[Take Cover]]
* [[Talking the Monster
* [[A Taste of Power]]: The first mission, being the film-ending shootout, lets you use Tony's trademark M16+ M203.
* [[Trash Talk]]: Tony can taunt his enemies to gain Balls towards powering up his [[Limit Break|Blind Rage]]. In addition, each time Tony gains a Reputation Level after the first- by which point he's stolen Gaspar's satellite phone- he'll get a call from Sosa taunting and/or threatening him. Taunting after crashing into another driver will also fill up the balls meter.
Line 124 ⟶ 126:
* [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]]: While you're playing as Tony, he will refuse to shoot any innocents due to his strong (if twisted) moral code. However, once you've bought one of his henchman (Driver, Enforcer and Assassin), there's nothing stopping you from taking control of them and going on a killing spree. Also, the chainsaw lets you cut off specific limbs, so you can either end it quickly with a decapitation or chop off their arms and legs, letting them suffer.
* [[Villain Protagonist]]: 'Nuff said...
* [[Villain
* [[What If]]: The whole premise of the game.
* [[Wide Open Sandbox]]
