What's more important is Paul Robertson is doing the sprites

You know, sometimes the pieces are a puzzle. It can take time to assemble a puzzle. Getting the right people in the right places is like getting the right pieces in the right places. It's often a difficult and time consuming task.

Sometimes the pieces just sorta snap together as soon as you let them out of the box.

Sometimes people relate their analogies back to the real world.

That analogy needs a Morgan Freeman narration.

LIKE RIGHT NOW.

As you can probably tell from my icon, I've been waiting for this for a very long time.

I saw Anamanaguchi live at my school once. They were pretty badass as a live band. I went home and listened to the recordings. NEVER AGAIN.

most chiptunes and 8-bit artists are like that.

Yeah, chiptunes isn't exactly easy listening. It's better in a concert/party type setting.

Some of their songs are catchy. Blackout City is one of my favorites.

Honestly, I don't mind having Anamanaguchi in my library. Though I think the guitars helps a bit. Straight up chiptune music (like, ohh... every other chiptune artist) would likely grate on me after multiple listens.

It's a video game based on a movie that's based on a comic inspired by 8 bit video games. Seriously there's something about that formula that can't possibly go wrong without the universe collapsing in on itself.

I really like these guys.

I only got introduced to them, though, because TalkRadar uses one of their songs as the podcast opener.

They did. DG wasnt a particularly GOOD comic though, so the game sucked on all accounts. This is still different. Bryan O'malley had a deep love of 8bit games going into this book the movie shares that from the look of the trailer and the game is a straight up side scroller.

Movie games used to be good, you know. I mean, the Genesis had Moonwalker, Aladdin and Toy Story after all. And the SNES had... uhh... well, I'm not sure but I'm sure there's at least ONE good movie tie in game for it.

I'M SO EXCITE. Anamanaguchi plus Paul Robertson is a match made in heaven. I SERIOUSLY can't wait to buy this game.

As for the movie... maybe I'd be excited if Anamanaguchi was doing music for it. Otherwise, Cera is keeping me from thinking it'll be good.

I HATE that guy.

I'm very excited for this game now, and for the movie and for the last book. I love Scott Pilgrim.

I don't know who Scott Pilgrim is but I am now interested in this game because of Anamanaguchi
