"SCARFACE SLIPS, NEXT-GEN VERSIONS COMING

"Say goodbye to your leetle friend - at least until 2006, when Tony will be 
back with next-gen versions

16:11 The videogame adaptation of classic gangster flick Scarface has been 
delayed to next year so that it can be ported to next-gen consoles, Vivendi 
revealed today.
Speaking at a presentation of the game in London earlier, Adam Roberts, 
Vivendi's managing director for Northern Europe said "Scarface will now be 
available in the first half of 2006 so we can concentrate on next-gen 
consoles. This will be our biggest game launch ever so we think it's best to 
wait and make sure we get it right."

Quoting one of Pacino's legendary lines from the movie, Roberts quipped: "Be 
cool. If you're important, people will wait."


The game, which puts players in the snakeskin loafers of Cuban drug lord 
Tony Montana after he escapes the movie's climax, was originally scheduled 
for release on PS2, Xbox and PC this autumn.
Specific next-gen formats were not mentioned. When we quizzed the Scarface's 
lead game designer Mike Lopez at Radical Entertainment he told us: "We're 
definitely looking at next-gen, but I can't specify platforms or timings. It 
won't necessarily be every platform."

Further digging at the event revealed that an Xbox 2 version would 
definitely be on the cards. Expect the full announcement to be made at next 
month's E3.

Keep it CVG.com for the full in-depth interview with Mike Lopez and our 
revised impressions of Scarface, coming soon. We also snatched a chat with 
Vlad Ceraldi, producer of The Incredbile Hulk: Ultimate Destruction - keep 
'em peeled for the latest on this hard-hitting superhero romp."
