Scott Pilgrim VS The World: The Game

If you have seen the movie or read the graphic novels, then I'm guessing that the story of Scott Pilgrim doesn't need much explaining to you then. If you haven't seen the movie then seriously, what the hell are you waiting for!

Scott Pilgrim has an immense nostalgic feel to it. The creators haven't gone for insane life like graphics or deep scores of music. No, instead they have kept it simple. Scott Pilgrim returns to the roots of the gaming world, with its side scrolling gameplay and 8-bit graphics, this truly gives the game the feel of an arcade game brought back from the past.

You take control of the hero Scott and/or his friends, Stephen Stills, Kim Pine, the love of Scott's life Ramona Flowers and thanks to two different add ons you can now choose Knives Chau or Scott's gay roommate Wallace Wells. Each character is equipped with their own unique special moves.

You are set on a journey to win Ramona's heart by defeating the league of evil exes, yep that's right. So that Scott can call Ramona his girlfriend he first has to defeat her seven evil exes.
The game is amazing fun but is so much better to go through with a friend rather than solo. It features up to 3 other players being able to join in the fun. There is also a leveling up system during gameplay that will allow you to learn new skills and kick more ass from the waves upon waves of enemies that stand between you and the boss of that level. It's not just the evil exes that you have to worry about in this game, along the way you will face bullies, skater, ninjas and even flying piggy banks. If you do find it being to much for you though and you get beaten, your doomed to wander the screen as a ghost till you either get resurrected or worse case scenario, its game over.
Rather than going off the movie, Scott Pilgrim has taken its looks and its humor from the graphic novels.
Scott Pilgrim is an extremely addictive game to play through, and its a lot more fun to play through with friends. This is possibly one of the greatest games that's available to download and my recommendation is that you download it immediately and get a little 8-bit love in your life. You wont regret it.
