Gameplay
When I took my early christmas money and picked up this game I was under the empression that it would be GTA with the story of Scareface, but I was completely mistaken. Instead of being one big third person battle for the streets your play as the overloard who dosen't diry thier hands personaly. Thus making the struggle for Miami one of strategy. Although there is street warefare you never find yourself looking down the sites of a gun. The battles take place from an arieal view with you sending in Reinforcments through special "Powermoves" that you aquire.

Modes
The game has two modes "Movie Scenario" and "Cartel Challeng." Durring the first you play as Tony Montana durring various parts of the movie to unlock lots of cool little scenes from the movie. Cartel Challenge is where you will get most of your playtime in though. Durring Cartel challenge you pick one of the Drug loards from the movie and complete a series of objectives to unlock nice PSP formated wallpapers that can be downloaded from the game with a click of a button.

Graphics
The game takes place on two different screens, the battle feild and the map. They both look adequite for what they're inteded for but they not all that great. Fortunately you'll be focusing more on what you're going to do for your next move rather than the dull maps.

Sound
Like the graphics there isn't much to say about the sound of the game either. There's a little backround music on the maps and menues that is pretty fitting and the audio in the video clicps is good.

Load Time
They're good, shorter than Wipeout longer than Tekken. But they have a tendency to take you out of the game with their frequency.

Controls
Everythings done through sets of menues so I can't really make any complaints.

Overall
The strategy aspect of the game is what has kept me coming back to it for the last few days, the variety in how you can acheive your goals makes this game something to play again and again for months to come.

If you like strategy games, get it.
