Batman and the forthcoming Transformers: War For Cybertron have shown that the best way to make a game of a film is to not have a film at all. Scott Pilgrim Vs The World is the opposite, it is the film of a game that does not exist. That doesn’t stop it having boss battles, epic fights, power bars, light sabres, summons, combos, ridiculous special effects and cheeky moves from Street Fighter.
It also looks like it is made of Epic Win.
Just to be confusing, Ubisoft will be releasing the game of the film based on a non existent game this September. The PSN and XBLA title is a retro side on beat ’em up inspired by the likes of Renegade and Streets of Rage. It features four player co-op and every gaming cliche ever – including Ninjas. Check out both trailers below.

reminds me of this.
both the game and film versions of scott pilgrim look awesome.
i’ve really got to check out the books at some point too, it would be cool if they got them on the comic store.

Too bad they didn’t get an actor.
…because Michael Cera isn’t an actor.
He plays the same character in every movie he is in.
._. Only ‘Superbad’ was good since that was nearly his first.

The film looks fun, and the game looks a little bit like Double Dragon to me, which isn’t a bad thing…
