    Scott Pilgrim vs the World: The Game is amongst the best that the beat em’ up genre has to offer. The game feels like one of the few purely-good entertainment that this volcanic eruption of a planet we reside on has to offer.

    The perfect hit of nostalgia. Whether you pick it up digitally or treat yourself to any of the physical goodies on the way from Limited Run Games, this game isn’t a cult favorite without reason.

    The landscape of the beat ‘em up genre may have altered in the ten years since Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game first released, but it’s return is wholly welcome. A wonderful compliment to the graphic novel series, and a stylish throwback to the delightfully gaudy brawlers that boomed and bloomed loudly in 90s arcades. Add friends for maximum impact.

    Scott Pilgrim vs. the World still gets a lot more right than wrong. It understands pacing and variety. It builds stages with gameplay arcs in mind, which is refreshing in a genre that can often devolve into mind-numbing button mashing. And it fits like a glove with its source material.

    Best enjoyed with a group of friends, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game deserved to be saved from digital purgatory. However, not even the thumping soundtrack and pleasant visuals can save it from being a rough go for solo gamers.

    It's really a simple little game, but it's one so full of personality. Not only does it contain all the major beats of the story you'd expect, but there are lots of small references to other games to find in Scott's chunky, pixelated hometown. The music adds to the effect a lot; Anamanaguchi's chiptune soundtrack is a delight. If you enjoy a straightforward beat-'em-up, this is well worth a look, even if you're not a fan of the source material — though it definitely helps.

    Technically clean remaster of the pixel-brawler. Mechanically, on the other hand, time wasn’t kind and left Scott Pilgrim behind most of the competition.

    I missed out on the original release of Scott Pilgrim vs, The World : The Game on ps3, 360 and pc.. but i did at least catch the demo to itI missed out on the original release of Scott Pilgrim vs, The World : The Game on ps3, 360 and pc.. but i did at least catch the demo to it back then and thought it was fun.. which made the fact that it was delisted even more annoying.. now that i've had the chance to dive into the PS4 version of the rerelease, I have to say... it's.. decent but flawed. The game has you going through side scrolling stages and is reminiscent of games like Double Dragon or Streets of Rage fight punching and kicking enemies, collecting coins from the defeated foes as well as leveling up with slight RPG mechanics... The pixel art visuals still look quite good in the rerelease, and having it include the dlc is nice as is the low price of $15... but it suffers from things like stiff movement which allows enemies to get hits on you too easily, the effects audio( attack sounds) being somewhat muffled under the music (even with music turned way down, the attack sounds are just too low) and worse, the extreme difficulty.. it's not a game for someone that gets easily frustrated by cheap deaths caused by unblockable attacks, long enemies attack combos, overly strong bosses and no mid stage checkmarks... and the fact that you have to repeatedly die and use the picked up cash to level up your stats, go through lose all your lives again and repeats till you can level up enough to be effective feels cheap and unnecessarily padded.... it's not a terrible game by any means.. but it is harder then it needs to be (even if you cheat to have power of love sword at start of every stage).. so be warned before playing .… Expand

    This game does not feel as intuitive as a beat em up should.The controls are very clunky and never really make you feel like you're in fullThis game does not feel as intuitive as a beat em up should.The controls are very clunky and never really make you feel like you're in full control of your character. More often than not instead of having the satisfaction of Mashing Square to beat people up I find myself having to block for 8 seconds before finding an opening, dodging to another plain, then finding a spot to attack. It is OVERWHELMINGLY unfair at many points. You will find guys charging in from absolutely nowhere and knocking out 15 or more of your health immediately. How is that even close to fair? Oh by the way, your progress only carries over for the character you play with. I'm surprised it carries over at all, this game is so heavily against you.
    Some Pros: The Music, the Artwork, the Animations, and that's about it. Play this with another person if you want to have any sort of chance at winning a level.    … Expand
