There comes a time where we must say farewell to beloved titles. Games vanish for a variety of reasons, ranging from servers getting yanked offline to some shady legal dealings, ie Too Human. This week's casualty is Scott Pilgrim vs. The World on the Xbox Live Arcade and PSN. The critically acclaimed beat'em'up isn't the r...
Now through March 10th you can take advantage of some deals on Xbox Live for classic co-op favorites, and also snag some single player titles that might tickle your fancy.
Remember that DLC for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World that was supposed to introduce a new character and the ability to play online co-op? The one that saw numerous delays for a host of reasons? Well wait no longer, because the long awaited DLC will be released today for the PSN and tomorrow for XBLA.
After what seemed like an eternity, the promised Scott Pilgrim vs. The World DLC was set to hit the Playstation Network and Xbox Live Arcade this week. Beat 'em up fans will be sad to hear that the content in question was delayed yet again. Originally announced in August 2012, the DLC will add online co-op and Scott’s r...
Back in August, Xbox Live's Major Nelson let slip that the long-requested but previously unannounced online co-op mode for Scott Pilgrim: vs. The World would actually be coming. Legions of comic and beat-em-up fans rejoiced... until the 'Online Multiplayer Wallace Pack' was pushed back to an undisclosed date less than two weeks later. At last, that date has been revealed: February 5th on PSN and the 6th on XBLA. Surely Major Nelson and Ubisoft aren't kidding this time, right?
Gamers have noticed recently that a few new achievements for Ubisoft’s Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game have popped up on the official list of the game. This makes it seem like the long awaited online multiplayer mode is getting closer to a release date.
Whatever you do, don’t delete all of your hard earned Scott Pilgrim vs. The World data off of your hard drives just yet, folks. It looks like this game will be receiving its long awaited DLC after all, having almost been swept quietly under the rug.
The Scott Pilgrim vs The World DLC was supposed to be available on Xbox Live today, adding in the much needed online co-op functionality that gamers so desperately craved while also adding in a new playable character. According to Ubisoft though, the content has a new "release window" which is sometime this Fall.
Ubisoft's videogame adaptation of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is a pretty stellar brawler with River City Ransom-inspired gameplay and unparalleled pixel art. It's also based on one of the best comics ever - at least the first four or five volumes of the book. Let us not speak of the sixth. But since the game's release, one major criticism has always plagued it: the lack of online co-op (it's 4-player offline). Well, color us all surprised: a DLC pack entitled 'Online Multiplayer plus Wallace Pack' is set to launch soon, just two years after the game's release. Timely!
There's a handful of game sales going on this week, the first of which is occurring over on the PlayStation Network for Ubisoft titles. Included in that sale are co-op games Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and Outland. PlayStation Plus members can get those games for 50% off - or $4.89. Everyone else can get it for 30% off - or $6.99. Scott Pilgrim features 4 player local co-op while Outland features two player online co-op.
While PSN owners got their Scott Pilgrim vs. the World DLC, the one that includes that patch to add drop-in / drop-out co-op, about a two months ago, Xbox Live Arcade gamers were left waiting in the wings. The content pack also adds in a new playable character, a dodgeball mode, and a new arena all for the price for $2.
Get ready to battle the League of Evil Exes! To coincide with the DVD and Blu-Ray release of the film on November 9th, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game is half off. We really liked this brawler when it came out a little over two months ago, giving it a co-op score of 4 out of 5 in our review. Normally 800 Microsoft Points, Scott Pilgrim is now available for 400 MSP. That's five dollars in real money!
