Awesome has a new name, and its Scott Pilgrim
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is an awesome game. The art style is a great mix of art loosely based on the art used in the graphic novels and old-school classic video games, this may give a familiar vibe to those who have read the graphic novels and to those who are fans of old 8-bit classics. The old-school graphics and style are almost improved thanks to an amazing sound track made exclusively for this title by chip-tune band Anamanaguchi and a purchase of this game is worth it just to hear this awesome soundtrack. The tracks fit the title perfectly and vastly improves on the title. Other sounds are almost like they were taken out of games like Streets of Rage and Mario which adds to the old-school style that this game was trying to achieve. The gameplay is similar to games like Streets of Rage and River City Ransome, scroll from the left side of the screen to the right and beat up everything that gets in your way. However it may sound like just a brawler, Scott Pilgrim also adds a few RPG mechanics such as leveling up and unlocking new moves. Items and health can also be purchased from stores in each level of the game. You purchase item with money you have collected by simply beating enemies up into pulps. But most importantly what this game has is 4-player co-op which is the second highlight of the game (first being the music). 4-player co-op is what this game was made for. Some bosses and enemies are so over whelming at times that it is almost impossible to beat them without 4 other players, however this is not necessarily a good thing which is not help by the fact this game does not have online play or instant drop-in, drop-out co-op which means the amount of players must be selected at the start of each game. All and all Scott Pilgrim is an awesome game but with glitches, alot of glitches! Things from the game's sound completely cutting off to the game crashing occurred during my playthroughs and it did effect the impact this game had. Hopefully this problems will be delt with but at the moment the game is very glitchy. The game's problems aside this game is ridiculously fun and a must buy for anyone who knows what fun is. And for 10$ you have no excuse not to buy it, so shut off you computer now and buy this game!!!!
