Scott Pilgrim Online + Wallace Pack Delayed Until Autumn

PS3 Xbox 360 XBLA PSN Scott Pilgrim

Even without Brendan Fraiser's cameo, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World was an XBLA and PSN blast from the past that made plenty of fans. As quietly as it was announced, the new Online + Wallace Pack for Scott Pilgrim is being delayed for a little longer.

While details on the Online + Wallace Pack DLC are as rare as uncomplicated love for a guy who is actually a jerk, the provided title seems straightforward enough: Online play, as well as access to Wallace Wells, Scott's roommate defined by his snark and the fact that he is gay.

Historically, the DLC for Scott Pilgrim has been pretty light on both content and cost, such as the Knives Chau DLC, which adds Knives Chau as a playable character, with an entirely unique moveset and base stats. Since Scott Pilgrim capitalizes on the cooperative gameplay, adding an online element would not go unappreciated.

Seeing DLC support two years after the announcement of a game is pretty impressive, so maybe this push is actually a good thing? ... Yeah, maybe not, but the DLC is now planning on an Autumn release, so look forward to that.

I still haven't purchased the Knives DLC, but I plan on getting all of the DLC for Scott Pilgrim at one point.
Easily my 2nd favorite Beat Em Up of all time behind Castle Crashers.
I wonder how well that game would translate in an online environment because of its stat driven semi-grindy nature (Like what if a max out character curb stomps everything for a beginner and ruins the experience. Or a beginner gets short-changed in experience online and is forced to cower behind.). Still, this was literally the #1 complaint people had with the game, so it's kind of sad that after the game more or less loses steam it finally gets it. Still, better than never, I suppose.
I did find the difficulty curve of the game to be very odd (it was tough as nails until you unlocked the video store, then the game was a cakewalk) and the lack of unlockables (especially in a world where Castle Crashers exists), but the game was still overflowing with content and charm and it was impossible to not completely love the music. Seriously, I love me some Anamanaguchi (and they even have a song in Rock Band!).
