Support NeoGAF

Earlier tonight a watch along of the Scott Pilgrim movie happened on twitter. The cast and crew tweeted about the making of the movie while watching it, culminating in an announcement of a planned rerelease of the film. Around this time series creator Bryan Lee O'Malley tweeted out calling for the videogame to be put on sale again, and Ubisoft replied with this tweet.



The whole thing seems like a coordinated push for the property, so I wouldnt be surprised to see a rerelease announcement coming soon.

You have my interest peaked.

Great game that made me want to see the movie. Glad I did, as it was an awesome experience!

I also own the Score and soundtrack to the movie and also the games score. I definitely supported this franchise.

Would be cool to have it on PC and with online coop, but eh that's dreaming. Oh and I just remembered Ubisoft doesn't put games on steam anymore so yeah nevermind.

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

Release a physical version this time so the game never vanishes again.

This license bullshit (and the butchered gta ost) reminds me how horrible will be the 100% digital future/cloud gaming

'Scott Pilgrim' director is "working on" bringing the game back

A little bit of playful Twitter trolling has resulted in a serious bit of good news for die-hard 'Scott Pilgrim' fans. If you've wanted the cult classic beat-'em-up game to return, there's every reason to hope.

Please be true. Also, gonna need that physical release.

The game just came and went, what was the deal with that anyway?

it was disappointing that it was delisted just before the xbl/psn MP update released

Not sure I'd play it again but I'd like to own it on Steam just in case I do. It's a great beat em up in the vein of River City Ransom with some grindy elements. Any game with a license these days, grab it while you can before you can't anymore.

I always thought the issue was with Universal? Ubisoft, Bryan and even the band that did the soundtrack have been hinting for ages they want the damn game out again but Universal own the overall rights to the movie and any related merch and they considered it a bomb.

Still pissed that licensing issues stopped this game from being made b/c. The only reason I still turn on my 360 from time to time.

I forgot about this game, loved it and for me it was the River City Ransom remake we never got. I’d buy it again if I could too.

Still have it in my 360. Great little gem.

 

[Soodanim]

Played it via PS+ on PS3. Really enjoyed it, it’s a shame it isn’t still up. It does encourage grinding a bit, but that was minor in the grand scheme of the game.

Universal considering it a bomb seems too stupid for it to be a real answer.

Same. People still buy systems for it lol.

 

[HotPocket69]

That response doesn’t mean shit lol

 

[boutrosinit]

It's a great game. Had it on PS3 and went back many a time.

 

[Belmonte]

It is a great beat em up! Reigned alone for a long time until Fight'N Rage, River City Girls and Streets of Rage 4 were released to compete with it.

 

[The Wheel of Fortune]

Holy shit, this game is awesome -- I really hope they manage to bring it back!
