Isn’t the snakeman stage from megaman referenced in there somewhere? Theres a stage with the snake bridges on, same disjointed look.
- The Twins and Dragon’s Den are a homage to Double Dragon.
- Roxanne’s opening intro to stage 4 has her doing a ninja vanish, leaving a log behind. Possibly a reference to Naruto.
- You could say that the elves in Stage 6 were inspired by the Golden Axe games, where little midgets would come and steal your stuff while you were asleep and you would have to beat the crap outta them to get it back. The fact that they look like Link is probably a Zelda reference.
- The Wolverines in Stage 6 perform a berserker barrage. Heavily inspired by the X-men character of the same name in the Vs. games.
- Scott’s victory exit is a homage to Megaman (I don’t know if that’s been mentioned)
Also, I heard that when you buy the DVD, it came with a promo code that gained you access to Knives as a playable character. Apparently, someone was able to rip some sprites from the game and Knives had her own vs. portrait like the other 5 characters. That would make sense considering there’s still another slot in the character data screen for an extra character.
Also, has anyone been able to unlock Mr. Chau with any given character after beating the game with that character? I only managed to fight him twice and loss both times. I think I may have to start a character from scratch in order to unlock him as an assist.
EDIT: OK I just check for any updates and it’s confirmed that the DLC for the game should be out now. The update includes knives as a playable character, a drop-in/drop-out option for offine multiplayer, and two new modes: Volleyball and Battle Arena/Royale. No word for whether the game has XBL/PSN multiplayer support.
That’s just a ninja reference, not a Naruto one
aspects of her character were def naruto references but yeah people dont realize the hand signs and the log substitution are ninja tactics.
Shit Knives is like a copy and paste job of Kim.
I wish they would at least fix the freezing issus in this game.
Yeah, I know. But I just think this is a ref to K9999 in particular because the pose and all is just like his super.
I need to get this game, it has fantastic animation.
So many references in this game. I played earlier and just remembered the Final Fight reference in stage 2 where you have to break a car. I also think that the sound the game makes when you use a key is a Zelda reference.
Yeah? The game is fun. But I find the scott pilgrim universe in general pretty stupid. Which was my point in the first place.
Also, its not nostalgia for me. Since I’ve never played River City Ransom.
So it only took like oh…forever, but there’s finally versions of Brie’s Black Sheep without talking at the beginning. I’ll be downloading it as soon as I get home. :lovin:
Youtube link for those interested.

I never played RCR either, but I still get nostalgia from the many game references and from it being a beat em up like Double Dragon and Final Fight.
You guys are probably going to tear me a new asshole for this, but…
What was so good about the movie?
I saw it yesterday and my impression was “meh.” I don’t get what the hype was about.
in the game is there an easier, less time consuming way to run into mr. chau? i hate the fact that you meet him after like every 3-5 full runs of a level. i only got him as an assist for Kim so far because i was turtling with her projectile attack the whole time.
i got the whole game soundtrack off itunes today and i must say that i like anamanaguchi’s stuff.
This game is frustrating me. I somehow got signed in and downloaded the update for this game. Seems like it was nothing but an in game access to the PlayStation Store. None of the glitches were fixed in fact I found a new glitch. I’ve been playing stage 4 today and the game won’t let me advance during the Chengu Gardens. After I cross that bridge and defeat the ninjas where the red ones pop up briefly and leave, the game doesn’t acknowledge the GO! and I’m stuck. I can’t even walk back.
I replayed the level same thing happened. Exited the game and did it with Scott and Stills. Same thing happened. The 1st time I forgot to mention a ninja was floating over the water and I couldn’t advance because he somehow became hollow. He was walking on top of the building, but when I tried to attack him he didn’t receive damage and it just went through him. This is nerve wracking.
when you couldn’t advance, have you tried to walk towards the left/right most part of the screen and attack? sometimes guys get stuck off screen. it’s happened to me on a couple of occasions in chengdu gardens as well. i dunno about that hollow ninja guy though. try to redownload the game if you are able to on psn if it’s really that bad. i dunno if you can do that on psn but i know you can redownload on xbox live.
I looked at the DLC preview video and wow, aside from a few moves, Knives basically a Kim clone. I hope she doesn’t have similar tech moves.
You guys try the new modes? Battle Royale seems like a rushed VS mode. Would be more epic if you could play with a few more characters. What’s the other mode like?

Probably like 5pm. My friends were already there and THAT was sheer madness, man. Sheer madness. Luckily, the girls we lined up with, were cool to be around. So, it wasn’t all that bad. Pilgrim shouldda got more press.

it’s a Ubisoft project that isn’t a Assassin’s Creed part. Of course I’d expect crap from the game. Next time it gets a sale, I’ll bite. Looks like fun with friends. Killing folks for bus fare seems enjoyable.
I love this game! Was worth the money in my opinion. Good music, secret unlockables, and true to the comic book.
Is this movie a must buy or pass? Cause I was thinking about buying the it
