Cult comic Scott Pilgrim is to be made into a video game, confirmed the creator, Brian Lee O'Malley, at the San Diego Comic Convention over the weekend.A feature film is already in the works, starring Michael Cera and is currently filming in Toronto. The graphic novel features the titular character as a twenty-something unemployed slacker who falls for "perfect" Amazon delivery girl Ramona Flowers. However, in order to date her, he has to defeat her seven evil ex-boyfriends.
The whole thing is peppered with video game references, with Scott "levelling up" at certain points and defeated enemies turning into a pile of coins. As a result, it should work well as a tongue-in-cheek video game full of retro references, but we'll have to wait until 2010, when the film is due, to find out.
