Fortunately the game does have an autosave feature.
Since you are weak, and apparently punch with pillow hands, the baddies can take a crazy amount of hits before being defeated. When you first start playing you will find that enemies are a lot more challenging to beat than you expect. But you can’t just go challenge the exes right off the bat, first you have to explore levels set in Toronto and take down all the random thugs on the street that attack you. The game says boyfriends but that is a mistake, it should just be exes.
Mirroring the movie and comic, Scott is in love with Ramona Flowers, but to date her, he has to defeat her seven evil exes first. If you want to switch it up, there are four other modes to try out like Boss Rush, Dodge Ball, Battle Royale and Survival Horror where you take down never-ending waves of zombies. It’s a lot of fun to have everyone teaming up to take down the baddies together. Unfortunately there is no cross-platform play supported so your friends will have to be playing this game on the same gaming platform as you. The World has the option to play up to four players co-op locally or online. All the characters have their own unique ending, so if you are a completionist or just want to find out what happens with the characters there is a lot of replayability. Though Wallace is just a reskinned version of Stills, but since he happens to be gay, has rainbows appear whenever he throws punches. Each character has their own set of moves that they can do. All the characters have four different colour options for their outfits, so you can do a bit of customisation. The members of Sex Bob ‘Omb Stills, Kim are there along with Ramona Flowers, Knives Chau and Scott’s roommate Wallace are all playable. Scott Pilgrim features not only the titular character but the other characters that appeared in the comics and movies. So to warn you be prepared to do some grinding, especially if you want to get the stats for your characters maxed out. The game feels like an RPG mixed with an action game with great references to other classic games like Super Mario Brothers 3. The World is a lot deeper and involved than it appears on the surface. Upon trying it for the first time, I got my butt kicked and I realised that this game was more like River City Ransom than a Double Dragon type game. I’ve played plenty of side scrolling beat ‘em ups so figured this would be the same idea, just using characters from the movie.
Now I have a chance to see if the game lives up to all the hype I have heard over the years, and if it is actually a good movie-tie-in game. Luckily a lot of upset fans complained since the game was taken down and it took a few years but now, on the tenth anniversary of the movie, the game is back on all the current generation systems. By the time I did get the systems the game was already gone from the console stores and with it being a digital-only release I was out of luck. I absolutely loved it and all the great videogame references, but unfortunately I didn’t have either of the game systems needed to play the game at that time and I totally missed out.
Once I saw the trailer for the movie in August 2010, I knew I had to see it. The World game that was only released digitally for the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 to coincide with the release of the movie in theatres.
