A tale of subspace crossed lovers: Scott Pilgrim vs the Game - Page 4

The problem with the video place is that you need to know exactly what's there exactly what you need, and exactly how many, because the late fees come back after you shop, meaning a 500 dollar entry fee every time you want to buy anything. Though with that foreknowledge, yeah.

Also: Is it just me or is Kim basically better than Scott in every way? With better jumping, the impenetrable wall of slaps combo, and all. I haven't played Stiles much or Ramona at all, yet, but so far Stiles seems a little worse than Scott, at least early on, due to both his dash attacks being 'high' attacks, leaving him without a way to attack enemies on their backs until later than Scott and Kim (whom both get a ground slide well be for either of the lower attack combos).

Just finished my first run with Scott. Had to go back and buy that 50+ strength upgrade before taking on Gideon again though, which really helped. Was able to beat his 2nd form in about 4 seconds this time once he broke the ledge and stopped electrocuting me.

Ironically, his last fight is incredible easy, I just beat him with an electro-prod repeatedly and stun blocked him into an eternal loop of unescapable pain instead!

Still have to try out the other characters yet though, but with the knowledge I have now, I think going back to buy that stength buff earlier would save a world of pain.

EDIT; 2 more things just occured to me. 1) Anyone know how you unlock tech attack 2? I expected it to appear once the game was complete, but maybe it only does so if you complete it on a higher difficulty?

2) Looking at the map, the airport to the south may be for future online multiplayer support. Which makes sense.

No, you don't. It just shows the $504 again everytime you go it, it only charges you for it the first time.

Hawk in stage 6 there is a secret path during the part where you have to take that key a long way while fighting beavers and birds. If you look in the back you should see a house. Just keep walking at the top of the screen pressing Up you'll get to Mobile's shop eventually. He sells the manual for Tech 2.

I have a burning hatred towards Michael Cera so I will NEVER see the movie. I will read the books (must get books), but I will NEVER see the movie.

Trust me man Your just hurting yourself. He didn't do a Mary sue in this one. He was a total dick at times, but a lovable dick. I usually don't like him in movies ether but this one you can completely ignore him for the neil patrick harris-tapping gay room mate, Romon-awesome, KNIFES(!), and the Leage of evil Exs

You gotta learn to recognize the lost causes, doc.

Downloaded the demo, and I think I'll probably wait until they make the online co-op a feature before I spend any money. The first level is kicking my ass enough for me to get the hint.

Daimo Mac, The Blue Light of Hope · 08-16-2010, 12:00 PM

The first level is pretty hardcore. But I am digging the music and the graphic design so I am tempted to buy it. Unlike the movie with the shitty Michal Cera.

You know, ever since I found out you actively hated Arrested Development, I've sort of been mulling over what kind of comedy a person who hates good comedy would like. It's sort of disappointing that the answer is the mostly obvious 'banally bad comedy'.

For those who have been playing and beating the game, was there a Bass Battle with Todd (#3)? That's one of the things that jumped out at me from the trailer (and my favorite part of the movie) so I was wondering if it translated to the actual game proper.
