Daniel Ibbertson, can you please do a complete history video of Ratchet & Clank?

[@JT_WARCRIME]

Umm.... I mean. I personally don't care, but um.... ahem 13:15

[@Crater7928]

@@JT_WARCRIME - Really wish I hadn't clicked on that timestamp, DJ mispronounced Montreal too, it's Montre-ALL, NOT Montre-ELL, jesus fuck, I love DJ Slopes, but he's literally fucking up the pronunciation of places in my country. X_X

[@micky2be]

Did you see the Kickstarter for the board game and mini figures?

[@BugsyFoga]

Glad to see the game is making an epic comeback after being delisted 6 years ago.

[@emmittmorgans8076]

I was pretty stoked when I got a used PS3 and was still able to download it on my PSN account, then I was excited when I found out how to emulate it... but now that I will be able to play it natively on my PC, I'm fully pumped!

[@leroyvisiongames2294]

Surprised you didn’t mention how Clash at Demonhead was Brian Lee O’Malley’s first video game as a kid and that’s why he named a band after it.....

[@TonySpike]

"7 evil ex boyfreinds" ......now shes a little bi furious lmao

[@Brownd55]

That actually made me realize why Ramona always corrected Scott by only saying "7 evil exes" lol

[@umachan9286]

She went through, as Scott put it, "a sexy phase".

[@matane2465]

You actually missed mentioning Scott and Ramona's cameo in O'Malley's book Seconds.

[@Xsis_Vorok]

That was a good book

[@TheReptain]

I need to buy that now xD

Is it a comic or real book btw?

[@Terrible_Peril]

This game has been the sole reason I’ve kept my ps3 hooked up all these years. Sometimes I just wanna play it and nothing else will do. It’s like visiting old friends.

[@misterzygarde6431]

I’m betting if Ubisoft had ported the game to Wii, they could’ve gotten away with making the game the only version that would have physical copies since the Wii was huge.

[@Brownd55]

I assume they wanted to keep it as a low budget digital only title and it may've exceeded the size limits of WiiWare

[@MrJWTH]

@@Brownd55 The OP wasn’t suggesting putting the game on WiiWare which capped out at 40 megabytes, they were suggesting that due to the Wii’s user base Ubisoft could have justified a physical (on disk) release for the system.

[@MugMan]

DAMN! Didn't expect a history of Scott Pilgrim but hell yeah I wanted this! This game needs all the publicity it gets and thank you DJ Slopes for covering this! It's nice to see someone with as much excitement as me who wants this game to come back!

[@LunaMinuna]

I could literally read a Scott Pilgrim novel 30 times and still laugh at the scenes I’ve laughed at 60 times

[@thebotbuilder]

I really love the Scott Pilgrim Franchise, probably one of my favourite franchises of all time. Really gutted I got into the series after the game was taken down but I'm so glad it is coming back, I can finally give this game a try.

[@PikaLink91]

The Great Clement made me aware of the game way back in 2010 when I saw his lets play.

[@screamingfalcon71]

DJ Slope: He was a fan of Sierra adventure games. Up pops an image from Monkey Island. Oops?

[@DanPantzig]

This friggin' game...I had already known about the comics and movie, so when this game came out I was on top of it. The soundtrack alone was worth the purchase, and getting to hear Anamanaguchi's "Another Winter" over and over because I wanted to grind from the first stage has given me a mild obsession with the song.

[@mightyfilm]

Scott Pilgrim the movie is yet another in a long line that proves that cult films often hit harder than certain mainstream films. All it takes is time to give films like this the audience they deserved. Niche? Damn right it was niche.

[@Mace2.0]

>Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The History and The Games > _"Games"_ You're suggesting that there's more than 1 game? BESIDES the re-release?

[@OutlawMantis]

If you count the board game, technically yes.

[@JohnPannozzi]

There was a mobile Punch-Out clone that came out at the same time as the movie. It sucked, but its something.

[@OutlawMantis]

@@JohnPannozzi I checked that out on the Scott Pilgrim Wikia. The graphics look absolutely awful. Can't comment on the gameplay but I'll try to get my hands on it somehow.

[@Brownd55]

The only other game mentioned in this video is a rejected Telltale series

[@OutlawMantis]

@@Brownd55 And it was only mentioned for about ten seconds. I was really surprised that Slope didn't mention the board game as it was a Kickstarter and I believe Slope often does pay attention to crowdfunded board games. 🤷‍♂️

[@megakidz13]

Bryan is from brampton Ontario the city im in rn. I met him randomly he's an amazing guy.

[@frostare]

I never got into the hype of the movie but I just love how this game looks and plays... it's definitely on my wishlist.

[@ClaireZhasa]

I was never a fan of the comics but the game ended up being so fun that I had to buy it

[@bananamime2083]

I’m a huge fan of the whole series and the game is my favorite part of it. Even more than the movie and comic. It’s one of my favorite beat em ups of all time

[@dr.velious5411]

It's got bugs that look like features and features that look like bugs, but that aside, I highly recommend it, you might wanna check out the River City series too if you haven't already.

[@JustJulyo]

My absolute favorite movie of all time! From the DVD, blu ray, interacting via Rocky Horror Picture Show and rewatching it IN theaters a dozen times, the movie was awesome! Don't even get me started with the music!

[@wilrc6]

I have Scott Pilgrim, TMNT Arcade and Simpson Arcade on a hard drive somewhere.

[@GamerBoy870]

Lucky never had a chance to get the simpsons arcade game why'd it get delisted

[@NavySharkz]

I love this movie! I watched it like 3 or 4 times the weekend that I got it from the library and still watch it a couple of times a year to this day. You described it the same way I do to people, if you aren't a fan of video games then you might not get it. I can't wait for your Alien vs. Predator video.

[@CoobyPls]

I have literally kept an old X360 for almost a decade just so I could play it from time to time. Anamanaguchi is so damn good

[@JohnPannozzi]

7:28 God willing Chynna Clugston brings back Blue Monday in the foreseeable future... The comics world is far poorer without the newest misadventures of Bleu and friends.

[@ELSTINKO.]

This was extremely interesting, especially seeing the anamanaguchi live show.

[@Dirk1Steele]

The movie was third date with my future wife (so special for both of us), I had already read all the graphic novels before seeing the film, and bought the game a couple of weeks later. Love it all, but that game soundtrack is just amazing.

[@dylandixon6757]

Could you look into the history of Castlevania, Metal Slug, Wolfenstein, Ninja Gaiden, Gauntlet, Prince Of Persia, Turok and Legacy Of Kain?

[@Stormy2142]

Ha i still have this game installed in my PS3 AND 360.

[@kenjimisaki6666]

playing through the game now… superb work my friend, thank you for your top notch production.

[@socillizt4life]

I loved my first read through of the books.Really liked the film & the game was a gem of a throwback to the 16bit era side scrolling beat’em ups!

[@nazurath8833]

Also helps that everyone has been introduced and probably spent some time grinding since most mobile games are mainly grinding

Yeah I just noticed that... looks like I wasn't the only one that made that mistake tho as it was also shown like that in the pitch video :P

[@BlastProcessing]

Great video and heartbreaking all at the same time! As someone who never got the chance to play this first time around, I can't wait to finally give it a go :)

[@rawtoonage8780]

I can't help but wonder if this video should get a remaster of its own consider the release of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off I know a lot of people have mixed feelings about it due it doing its own thing and not being an adaptation of the comics but as a Scott Pilgrim fan myself, I absolutely love the direction the anime went in And yes I'm calling an anime because at the very least, it's definitely a love letter to that medium

[@s3np411]

When is this supposed to be re-released? I wish they'd put the Simpsons arcade and heroes paradise dlc back on the psn.

[@Brownd55]

Holidays I think, no specific date set yet

[@TrevRockOne]

Damn, that was actually some entertaining sponsored content.

[@charliemurphy6457]

I guess I'll have to get a switch now for reals

[@Brownd55]

it's coming out on every platform, even PC

[@DatOneGuy901]

you had to put ALOT of time into this game to make it be more fun. its got the hint of old school RPG in it where you have to level your characters up to be able to compete on the late levels. i had no problem starting at the beginning every time i booted it up, cause i know i would need those few level ups i pick up along the way to where i last died, i may be ready to make it past them this time. but it was satisfying cause the combat system is so robust and satisfying. i consider this game gameplay wise to be one of the best beat em ups of all time..at least top 3

[@アントニオ-h6d]

My guy you with your music. Ultimate battle 22 ssj3 goku. So unexpected

helps that it was similar to River City Ransom (the Riki and Kuino series) on the NES

[@duffman18]

The World's End which is the third in the trilogy of Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz is great too. It took me longer to understand and appreciate it, it's got less comedy and more character drama in it, but it's really great at it.

[@jamesmurray4312]

This game is great. I recently turned on my PS3 just to play it.

Can you look at the history of Charlie Murder? Very similar to Scott Pilgrim vs The World but more gritty :0

Kinda bittersweet knowing the Scott Pilgrim Game's complete edition is gonna drive down the potential value on my fat PS3, but it's okay... ...I still have Einhander on digital. :D

[@negativ-dekadent]

stapuft No one cares!

[@FhargaZ]

At the time we found the game a little slow, always stopped playing after a while.

[@mostmelon]

The thing that REALLY appealed to me about the game was the innovation. Sure, it was a retro beat 'em up, but it was one where the character was constantly evolving. And before Scott Pilgrim, I had never played anything like it. It made the game feel very exciting and fresh.

[@mrmysterious8124]

Can you look at the History of Mario & Luigi🍄🐢

[@djcactus]

Fuck streets of rage 4, this game and Charlie murder were the best side scrollers of the decade

[@pferreira1983]

Never got into Scott Pilgrim. The problem of doing a parody of a video game is that it lacks the purity of what makes that genre (in this cast the beat'em up genre). However it's good to see it get a physical release even if PC still gets shafted. 😒

[@Lord_Deimos]

Scott Pilgrim had it easy, if I had to fight my ex's boyfriends I'd be busy for the next couple years.

[@coolfinel]

In the books, it actually takes Scott roughly a year to defeat Ramona’s exes, as Scott is 23 in the first book and turns 24 near the end of the series.

[@OmarAlikaj]

Seen a bit of the movie, but it was weird. Still looking into this IP though.

[@KetsubanSolo]

The movie is honestly a pretty bad adaptation of the comics (partly because they started production when they were only 2 volumes in for a 6 volume series, and a lot of where the story goes was still in flux). I appreciate a lot of the technical and cinematic aspects, but the storytelling is kind of flat. Without going into spoilers, the video game references are suddenly given a huge, tragic explanation in Vol. 6 of the comic, and the overall message is much deeper and relatable.

[@jtoumai]

Game reminds me of river city random

[@GamerBoy870]

Great nes game

[@nhan27.]

if the team got the time again to release the game again do you think they gonna finished the game this time around since back in the day have to rushed the game to match the movie time like you say ?

[@SalusFuturistics]

I think today you'd call that Movie toxic femininity

[@WebstersYouTube]

I think the game's legend has become something the title simply can't live up to. People want what they can't have, I just think there might be a few comments of "Was it always like this?" when the re-release hits.

[@anasevi9456]

why did they have to use michael cera in the movie? He was so damn overcast back then that it was the best way to make sure no matter how good your movie was, it would be remembered as just a part of the blob of his billions of late 2000s coming of age movies.
