Not out here for another 3 weeks, damn release schedules. Looks good though, be interesting to see if they've retained much of the Spiderman 2 format.

From what I hear, it's supposed to be similar to SM2, but with an additional borough (sp?) to play in (Queens, I think) and the ability to play as Venom.

Hmm, odd, I thought I heard they were scaling down the game area. Unless they're just condensing things down a bit and not having true to life buildings etc.

Yeah, sounds like its gonna be one cool game, throwing cars around as Venom:love:

I've been doing that as The Hulk for weeks. :( Combat sounded fun though, I like the evasive fighting for Spidey, its more realistic (what an oxymoron.)

Yeah, apparently you can unlock more costumes too, like wrestling Spidey:love:

I rented it, and I will tell you all..


It's worth a rental, but in no way is it worth 50 bucks. Not because it isn't fun, because it is. Incredibly. Thing is though, the story mode can be finished in no time, and aside from a few unlockables, there's nothing much there.

Swinging has been dumbed down from the great system in Spider-Man 2, not to mention the fact that Spider-Man and Venom only have one dodge move. I was going to buy it (VENOM :love: ), but I'm glad I rented it and bought San Andreas and We Love Katamari instead. It's good, but not nearly as good as IGN says it is.

That parts kinda easy. The game kinda ruined itself for me in a way, storyline wise cos it gave away a certain part I didn't know cos it was too early on in the game.Wanna know it? :shifty:

ROFL, if you're thinking of what I'm thinking of, it got me too. You are talking about (highlight to read) the Majestic Agent mentioning that Silhouette was a chick , then yeah. I was pissed but humored at the same time. :D

The new swing system really really bothers me. It was the only thing I was hoping they would keep the same from SM2. You just can't get the same speed or height as you could before, not to mention accuracy. A good rent, but SM2 is a better buy.

I've played through a bit of it, but the chase missions piss me off to no end. I had to do the Electro chase SOOO many times.

Other than that, fun game.

Gay game I can't find those "beatem up tours" bad radar and spidey sounds like a fag.

Good game. I said before I played it "If this game is half as good as SM2 was, it will be worth playing." Turns out it's about 2/3 as good. Granted, I just started playing it today (stupid Blockbuster and their "no late fees" policy encouraging people to hold onto games for random amounts of time), but it's fun.

I kinda like the new Spidey voice. I mean, Peter's a weaselly little teenage dork, he should sound like one. His little one-liners are pretty good, too.

And that's the hardest Rhino has ever been to beat in a video game (not saying much, but still). The concrete/wrecking ball thing was pretty clever.

Good rental game, but the replay all depends. I like the webswinging system, which most people seem to hate. Feels intuitive. The worst part about the game was those chase scenes. It's the only part that even remotely slowed me down. Sure, the bosses were difficult, but not insurmountable.

The chase scenes and saving people in the meanwhile was interesting, but bogged the game down, and quickly got old. The gameplay had a real lack of depth to it, and while it was fun doing city events (I'd even waste time swinging around finding them), there was limited interest there too. Got old fast.

The Graphics were pretty hot, but the game has too many flaws to work out for 50 bucks. Maybe when it's 20.

Yeah, Parker should sound like a little emo kid. He's a scrawny little bitch, Super-Hero or no. I think he and Storm (Human Torch) sound too similar.

I hate the Ultimate Venom, but that's not the game's fault.

I don't know why Savior's having so much trouble, but I had no trouble with the map for the most part. Combat tours were easy to find and not that difficult to do.

I got the game a few days ago. It's pretty fun so far. There should be more and different city missions. There are 3: take people to hospitals, fight crime, save somneone form falling. They're fun at first, but I'm slowly getting bored of them. I love swinging from building to building. My question, why can't to shoot your web wherever you want? I want to be able to shoot my web straight up and climb up it.

I'm still having so much fun with the game. I'm having problems with chasing Shocker as Venom. Someone help.
