| Scarface and 50 Cent Sequels Planned More mayhem and murder is coming your way. by Wade Steel July 6, 2005 - Vivendi Universal Games president Phil O'Neil revealed that sequels to the unreleased Scarface: The World is Yours and 50 Cent: Bulletproof are planned, according to an article on GamesIndustry.biz. According to O'Neil, VU Games sees "a Scarface 2, a Scarface 3, a Scarface 4, and consecutive iterations of that product as being a really important component of what we're trying to do here." Scarface: The World is Yours features the continuing adventures of Tony Montana, the Cuban drug kingpin who told us to say "'ello to his little friends" (his friends being assault weapons) in the 1983 movie by Brian De Palma. The game will take place in the aftermath of the destruction of Tony's world and will feature Grand Theft Auto style gameplay as you try to rebuild your empire through such dipolmatic means as assassination and property damage in the South Florida of the 1980s. In a similar vein, 50 Cent: Bulletproof takes us from the glitz and glamor of Tony Montana's South Florida to the gritty underground of New York City. The game will feature the rapper getting caught up in a deadly international conspiracy with the only way for him to get untangled being to blast his way through the crime families of New York. O'Neil hopes that both the Scarface and 50 Cent brands become "sustainable franchise brands" for VU Games. |
