    "Looks like somebody's got a case of the Mondays!"


    It sucks about your computer, man. But about this Scarface game......how the hell is it supposed to take place after the film. Did these people not see the ending, or what?

    lol, the game starts at the end of the film and basically instead of dying, you survive - like an alternate timeline/universe type thing. You even get to turn around (verrrrrrrrrry slowly) and shoot the guy who sneaks up behind Montana at the end of the flick and blast away his balls ... then after a few hours the game will give your computer a stroke and you'll spend the rest of the day crying into your hands ...

    Sod's law indeed. You bad mouth the game so it ****s up your computer.

    Might be worth 'acquiring' an XP Setup disk, like you did with Scarface.

    That way if it goes FUBAR then you can format and start over again.

    Such a superb movie ... such a turd burgling game ... holy crap am I glad I didn't waste a single penny on it, and they wonder why people download...
    You got a way with words MZ. It has taken me the last 10 minutes to stop crying!

    Flattery, dear sir, will get you everywhere with me.

    I just love riffing on the English language.

    Meh, I've seen the game, i'm not impressed. When I saw this was going to be released, I did not have high hopes for it. Usually, this kind of game (movie converted to game) sucks, and apparently this one follows right along with the rest.

    agreed - it does indeed look like a console game converted to a pc game.

    What is it with these movie game franchises? They all blow! Reservoir Dogs, The Godfather, Scarface... and soon we're gonna get Taxi Driver and Dirty Harry... I am hard pressed to think of a good game that's been lifted from a Hollywood movie.

    Seems like Rockstar games could handle these titles pretty well. I played a few minutes of "The Warriors" and it seemed pretty cool. Then again, it was only a few minutes worth of gaming. But come on, "Reservoir Dogs" or "Taxi Driver" in the style of "Grand Theft Auto".......you can't say that doesn't seem like it could potentially be very awesome.

    The Warriors is one of the most fun games that came out recently. Highly recommended.

    I've read that Reservoir Dogs is a huge steaming pile of dog shiv, though.

    I will agree with that one, Reservoir dogs is pretty crap.

    It's fun to watch the special moves like stubbing a cigar out on someones face or cutting off their fingers with a cigar clipper, but thats as far as it goes for originality.

    Is the Warriors out for the PC?
