CFD!'s Dustin Stevens cracks heads on the snowy streets of a pixelated Toronto in this review:
"Let me just start right off the bat and say this: I get it. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game is a marvelous throwback to 8 and 16-bit beat ’em ups. It’s full of references to the Scott Pilgrim comics and movies as well as to other video games. But as a standalone game, it’s simply too trapped in the past and too multiplayer balanced to stand out as a great single-player experience."
From Xfire: "You'd think that there would be more good comic book video games (outside of the obvious superhero ones) released over the years, but the truth is, they are quite rare. Thankfully, a growing number of studios are tapping into this valuable resource to bring audiences the best comic book video games."
Re-releasing Scott Pilgrim vs The World doesn't fix things quite that easily.
"But because of some absolute scumbags at the top, I can’t in good conscience even think about giving this company a dollar at the moment. It would be like if Konami suddenly announced that PT and Silent Hills was coming back that would be great, but you also have to wonder what made them changed their mind."
You really did not have much to go on, but that just exposed how out of touch, fan news driven and un-industry you are. I get that you think that your heros can do no wrong and all, but get back to gaming kiddo. Squeak on.
Meanwhile, they are looking for contributors to deliver more of this. :/
'Scott Pilgrim Vs The World: The Game' Remaster Coming From Ubisoft.
I had this on PS3. Absolutely a treasure and all the homages to retro gaming was brilliantly executed. If you want a beat ‘em up that feels a bit like Shovel Knight in its retro love and a River City Rampage RPG, this is for you.
Its a rarity when a Movie and its game land so well. Enjoyed both of these immensely
I never saw the movie or played the game. I feel so left out but Im glad this is coming back so I can finally play it. I've heard nothing but good things about it. I still need to see the movie though.
Literally played through and 100%'d River City Girls and literally said to myself, they really need to rerelease Scott Pilgrim or I'm pulling out my PS3 again with it on it. IMO the best beat em up I've ever played. So happy, I legit may buy on switch, ps4 and PC
Probably the best game Ubisoft released for the past decade. The only digital game I've ever pre-ordered with no regrets. Fantastic game, not sure if I'll buy it again since I have my PS3 readily available.
If you enjoyed Turtles in Time, or Streets of Rage in the past, then don't let this game pass you by!
The movie is directed by Edgar Wright (Cornetto trilogy) and is quirky and great fun.
The game is also great retro fun and has been unavailable for years as it was delisted from the PS3 store. Will definitely pick it up for PS4.
Is it odd that I never watched the movie, and read a bit of the first volume of the graphic novel and found it kind of boring, but love the game? I still have this on my PS3 actually. I never did get the DLC though so I'm glad this is happening. Now I just have to decide if I want it on my PS4 or Switch.
I still need to get around to buying this.
No online multiplayer = no thanks.
@SynGamer--well said. That really neutered this game.
I probably will, if only for Anamanaguchi.
I still need to see this movie! Wish it was still in theatres. Good to hear the game is good
