![]() From looking at the configurations of other arcade sticks like the Mad Catz line and the new Hori Vewlix product lines as they have the face buttons on the left, unlike how mine are between the shoulder buttons and right in the middle. The controls are sadly not customizable which is a bit of a harping point because I own an arcade stick (Hori Fighting Stick 3) and the default button configuration isn’t comfortable to that stick. The Help section detail game mechanics and controls in a brief way. The soundtrack is done by Anamanaguchi and completes the 8-bit retro feel. ![]() The graphic style is a remix on 8-bit retro. The taunt is important as when all players have their taunts active, your team gets to do a killer band attack doing massive damage. Scott’s assist summons up his fan-girl/ex-girlfriend Knives Chau that stuns enemies. Each character has a “assist” summon as well as a taunt of their own. Each character levels up individually like in Castle Crashers and you can change their color palette as well. There are 2 secret characters to unlock as well, but I won’t spoil the surprise for those who intend to read the novels. Players are able to choose from Scott Pilgrim, Kim Pine, Stephen Stiles, or Ramona Flowers as their hero of choice. The options for friendly hits can be toggled and by default it is marked off. This is disappointing as it would work rather well as an online title with friends. No idea if there will be a latter addendum for multiplayer via PSN. ![]() The game supports 4 total players and multiplayer is a local system affair. It seemed like Castle Crashers but with heavy undertones of the Scott Pilgrim franchise.įor technical details, the game is on the PlayStation Network Store for $9.99 and there is a demo available. ![]() I am almost confident in saying that it quelled any fears of the game being a hack-job for a money grab. Seeing some of the scenes that had been referenced in the novel being depicted in a video game was truly amazing. A game that was completely retro in style, but with fresh concepts from modern day games. When the trailer from Comic-Con was shown, I was intrigued. There used to be an embeded media player here, but it doesn't work anymore. ![]()
