Great! All they have to do now is get a release date for ME1. And while they're at it why not ask Capcom when we PS3 owners can expect Dead Rising 1 to be released on PS3...

The comics also read pretty fast. I agree with EatSleepChuck too regarding some of the subtleties that will be missed. Having said that there are small variations on the plot to make it more applicable to a game format instead of a comic book. So I guess what I'm saying is that if you play the game and think its cool you may want to check out the books.

So, here's the Scott Pilgrim video game. "Probably designed by Uwe Boll's less talented cousin Steve and coded by a drunken monkey," you say.

The only issue I take with this statement is that it assumes that Uwe Boll is talented. Unless you are taking 'talent' in this context to mean 'I have opposable thumbs and can work a camera.' In which case I'm pretty sure that Boll isn't human and therefore lacks opposable thumbs. Which by extension also means he has no talent at all. Pray for cousin Steve.

The Ramones aren't in the final version. The final version's soundtrack is entirely composed by Anamanaguchi.

This version of the game seems to follow the books much more closely than the final version. Though Brian Lee O'Malley himself said that the differences are intentional and changing it from the books was the point. Still I like the final version much better than this early concept and given how good this looks its no wonder the final game turned out as awesome as it did.

Actually the reason Scott doesn't drink is because he's a pussy. At least until he discovers the Power of Love. Man...that sword kicks ass!

If they could ship a full and completed version of the poster concept art with the game that would be great! This game is digital though isn't it? Pity...I really like the art style. Its very Penny-Arcade.

It seems that the core control and gameplay mechanics are still the same. Though I wonder if the number of skills in the bar has been increased to give it a more MMO/WoW type of feel. Have they said whether the Sin and Derv classes are going to make an appearance?

Maybe they'll make Wayne Newton into a ghoul. It would explain the downward spiral that has been his singing career!

Did anyone else notice the obvious nod to The Pirate Bay within the pirate ship artwork? I had completely forgotten about this game until this article brought it up. Might have to check it out if the price is now $5.
