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.

Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game was and remains a commendable but short beat 'em up. All fans of the genre should definitely take a closer look at the game.

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.

Scott Pilgrim vs the World: The Game - Complete Edition may not be on a par with Streets of Rage 4 and co, but playing with friend makes it a much better experience.

Ubisoft's revival of the cult-favorite beat-'em-up presents a solid way to re-experience this once-lost action-RPG.

A simple setlist, but the performance shines thanks to technical ability and showmanship.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition delivers what it has to but nothing more. Retro- and Comic-Fans will still have a lot of fun after all this time but for everyone else the expierence got a bit outdated over the years.

Scott Pilgrim Versus the World Complete Edition certainly aims to be a faithful collection of this decade-old RPG brawler but with a near-zero list of improvements, it's tough to call Scott Pilgrim's adventure anything more than a pre-wrapped gift to the fans.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game - Complete Edition is certainly an original scrolling fighting game, thanks to the reference imagery. However, games like Battletoads and Streets of Rage 4 have proved that the genre has evolved a lot in the past ten years, while the gameplay built by Ubisoft does not always shine or work at its best.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game - Complete Edition isn't the best retro beat'em'up there is, but it makes up for its faults with tons of charm.

Scott Pilgrim vs the World: The Game Complete Edition is a solid brawler that features some rather brutal difficulty to it, and a bit of a grind factor as well.

The music is fun, the story and animation are quirky, and there’s plenty to reminisce with friends over while you’re playing couch co-op. But its nostalgia has tainted our recollection of what Scott Pilgrim vs the World: The Game was and it’s not what we need anymore. If I’ve learned anything from this experience it’s that hipsters, nostalgia, and emo kids are the real villains.

Don't miss out! Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game is a great beat 'em up game, although some of the mechanics are a bit old fashioned.

Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition is an standard Side-Scrolling Beat 'em Up that can entertain, but due to some control issues and very hard difficulty level especially in the beginning parts, may not be a good choice for just anybody.

Ultimately, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition may not impress players who don't already have an attachment to the Scott Pilgrim franchise. Those who do have that intimate attachment though will absolutely want to spend $14.99 to relive their memories of this unique little beat 'em up. Either way, having someone else to play it with will crank the whole experience up to 11. This game is so much better with a friend, a roommate, a new girlfriend, a new-new girlfriend, or maybe even an evil ex.

After a six year absence, Scott Pilgrim is once again back for blood. Aside from a few technical issues that will hopefully be ironed out soon, there is no reason to ignore the siren's call for a second time. It's high time to suit up and kick some bass.

This is as straight forward as a beat 'em up title gets and since it was first released, this genre has seen some changes since it first came out but the charisma and the character that Scott Pilgrim vs. The World brings to the table, makes it a title still worth experiencing after 10 years or so.

If you're a fan of the character or of beat 'em ups and pop culture in general that didn't have a chance to try this title, this is your second chance that must not be wasted.

Scott Pilgrim Complete Edition is the definitive version of the beloved game that debuted two generations ago. This time, online multiplayer further enhances the fun as players can bring in three buddies to bash baddies and get the girl!
