I didn't know anything about this game until my friend showed it to me on the 360. With the recent trend of throwbacks to classic games and my love for them, this game certainly got my attention.
This game exhibits many similarities to classic games such as River City Ransom. Or rather, it pays tribute to them. I remember playing River City Ransom rather extensively (but I never got very far, I might add). Although I haven't actually had the chance to play Scott Pilgrim yet, it looks awesome and I would love to give it a whirl.
