The Scott Pilgrim video game side-scrolls its way into my heart

So far, the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World video game looks like all kinds of awesome (read a more in-depth preview). The 2D sprites, the 8-bit soundtrack, the four player co-op, the epic side-scrolling battles, the awesome Akira reference: everything screams “nerdy” in the coolest way imaginable. I’m seriously considering joining Xbox Live for this game alone.
