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!

Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World: The Game Complete Edition stays true to the movie and comic book themes and provides an adequate experience for those who love Scott Pilgrim. The retro audio and graphics perfectly fit the game's style, but that alone was not enough to save a game that failed on the core essentials of a beat 'em up.

Back when Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game was originally released, it proved that retro-inspired gameplay was still in high demand. Over 10 years later, Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game now proves that the game has held up incredibly well.

Overall, Scott Pilgrim vs The World is one of the better side-scrolling 2D beat 'em ups I have played. The difficulty, especially early on when you feel underpowered, remains an issue. The game is dripping with charm though and despite the frustrations it kept me coming back for more and wanting to fill out my upgrades with different characters. Hopefully, the online stability can improve, completing a worthwhile return for the once banished gem.

Great movie-tie-in game that has awesome references to both the movie and comic series. Grinding will be required if you don't want to get your butt kicked!

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 was and remains a commendable but short beat 'em up. All fans of the genre should definitely take a closer look at the game.

SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD COMPLETE EDITION is a compilation of game contents released in 2010 with all its additions more than being a remaster. If you went through the original before, there is no need to repeat it with this version because it adds nothing to your experience, but if you did not have the opportunity to try it before, you can do so with this full version, especially if you find someone to share this adventure with.

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.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game Complete Edition manages to give the players a good "beat 'em up" experience. It has good pixel art graphics and excellent chiptune music that are entirely suitable for this genre. There are some online Co-op problems, and some of the overall designs may feel old, but all and all, it is an enjoyable "beat 'em up."

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition isn’t going to win any awards. Hell, I doubt anyone remembers it’s out come March. And that’s probably where it should rest. It’s got a banging’ soundtrack, but you can listen to that without having to play it. Are you and three of your friends the biggest Scott Pilgrim fans on the planet? Okay, you got me. This will probably be the greatest thing to happen since Matthew Patel got the stuffing whipped out of him.

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.

Charm is perhaps the biggest thing Scott Pilgrim Vs The World: The Game - Complete Edition on Xbox has going for it. Unfortunately, the fighting isn’t quite as tight as it could be and occasionally lets down the wonderful music and great visuals.

Ubisoft's charming side-scrolling beat 'em up finally comes to modern consoles, in a complete definitive edition that doesn't add new content or improve the original game, but still delivers one of the best modern games in the genre, with great gameplay and a killer soundtrack
