So the game hit today, for US users, tomorrow for those overseas. I've played the first level twice, just cause it's that good.
Scott Pilgrim vs the World isn't a easy game by any means. But when you get the combos and when to time your attacks down, the game becomes much easier. That being said, it's a fluid game. The animations are clean and look great. Square is for light attacks, triangle is for strong, circle blocks and X jumps, standard controls. You can either choose to move with the analog sticks or with the D-pad, either way gets the job done.
The combo system is pretty good. I'm not that good at a fighting game to get combos, but they explain them pretty well in this game. The game is pretty deep, which caught me off guard. There's hidden passages to move forward in a level in you're being rushed by enemies and the shop system, while funny, is surprisingly effective. You can buy Lost at Sea, one of O' Malley's other books at a store, I personally thought that was funny. With that you learn new moves, when I bought it I leveled up. Not sure that will happen every time though. Also you can buy new music and food which give you health back and boosts your health for awhile.
There's still more for me to check out with this game, but from what I can tell, this game would be AWESOME with online coop. But if they never patch it, you'll have to play with a friend at your house. And really, no online play is a small bump in a round for a game that might be the best downloadable game of the year.
Plus if you're as big of a fan of the books as I am, you'll enjoy the nods to the books as well. This game is awesome.

I really hope to get some more videos on this, because (1) I don't know the books and (2) from the trailer I cannot see what kind of game this is at all :-)

It's like an old school beat em ups/2D brawler. I'll try to upload some videos, if I can figure it out :)

Do you mean how to add them to YouTube, or get then to PS3Heroes afterwards? :-)

I guess both. I'm not the best when it comes to uploading stuff onto youtube. You can't use the embed code to post things?

I downloaded the demo yesterday... and just before I wanted to go te bed, I thought, let's have a look at Scott Pilgrim. First, I was a bit scared by the graphics, but I ended up playing the demo for about an hour. :)
Now I think about getting it, but I'm not sure...
