awesome

Funky Fly 04-17-2008 06:22 PM

The last 2 Spidey games were ass (3 and FoF). They'd better be building it off 2's engine.

Kane Knight 04-17-2008 06:59 PM

There's hype for all the Spidey games. This one better not suck as much as the last couple.

Web swinging in particular.

ClockShot 04-18-2008 07:56 PM

Trailer just hit the net.

Kalyx triaD 04-18-2008 08:16 PM

I miss Spidey 2's web-swing engine, I want it back. This game might be okay...

Xero 04-18-2008 08:23 PM

Honestly Spider-Man 2 was where they perfected everything. Everything after that was meh.

Gameplay:

Very stylish, but is he 'swinging on clouds' again?

Kane Knight 06-20-2008 08:24 PM

I don't know. Most of the time, it looked like he had elements he was swinging off of.

Xero 06-20-2008 08:27 PM

Looks great to be honest.

Kalyx triaD 06-20-2008 08:36 PM

I'll trust your eyes for now. Anyway, the action looks pretty good. More action game in the likes of DMC or God of War than usual. With less blood, and more white stuff.

Mr Regal 06-24-2008 05:44 PM

Looks like it will be a lot of fun.

Fox 06-25-2008 02:10 PM

Wow that looks amazing.

Kalyx triaD 07-24-2008 04:33 PM

Wolverine + Symbiote =

Lord-Of-Darkness 07-25-2008 07:13 PM

That looks all kinds of awesome

Nowhere Man 07-26-2008 12:28 AM

The combat does look pretty damn fun.

Kane Knight 07-26-2008 08:02 PM

The whole game looks mad fun.

Reavant 07-26-2008 08:06 PM

awsome!

KingofOldSchool 07-26-2008 08:10 PM

My biggest fear in this game will be the controls and camera angles. Hopefully they won't be shit...

Kalyx triaD 09-29-2008 08:56 AM

I was interested, now I'm excited. Ultimate and Spidey 3 were let-downs and Friend or Foe was insulting (although kinda fun in an early 90's arcade sort of way), but this may be the Spidey game to get. Along with Batman: AA, comic games are getting their due these days.

Nowhere Man 09-29-2008 09:06 AM

That mid-air fight was badass. Can't wait to see how it actually plays.

Kane Knight 09-29-2008 10:00 AM

This COULD be one of the best Spideys ever.

Funky Fly 09-29-2008 06:32 PM

Fuck, need to change my undies after seeing that.

ClockShot 09-29-2008 06:57 PM

Tricia Helfer is the voice of Black Cat. And I reserved this already so I'm good to go.

Kalyx triaD 10-11-2008 01:29 PM

The greatest video game trailer ever.

Lord-Of-Darkness 10-11-2008 01:38 PM

Holy shit to the end of the trailer. Well all of it was awesome! Glad I preordered this, only 2 weeks til release!

HeartBreakMan2k 10-11-2008 03:19 PM

That could be the sexiest trailer for a video game I've ever seen.

Indeed.

The Destroyer 10-12-2008 05:22 AM

Looks like it could be good. As long as it's better than the Spider Man 3 movie tie in.

And Moon Knight's in it. :heart:

Funky Fly 10-12-2008 08:48 PM

Damn. Way too many good games coming out over the next few months. FUUUUCK.

Nowhere Man 10-12-2008 10:43 PM

This looks like what the Maximum Carnage storyline (and pretty much all of the Symbiote stories in the 90s) should have been.

Fryza 10-12-2008 11:05 PM

Okay, now I want this game...

Gone Mad 10-17-2008 10:26 PM

It's times like this that I kick myself for being a Wii owner... and for being poor.

Loving the combos and epicness of this game.

Skippord 10-19-2008 06:39 PM

I want that game inside of me...I mean inside of my X-Box 360

Lord-Of-Darkness 10-19-2008 07:56 PM

Can't wait for this to arrive on friday

Disturbed316 10-20-2008 05:57 AM

God its going to be an expensive couple of months, this, Fable 2, GoW2. Stupid christmas run up :mad:

Lord-Of-Darkness 10-20-2008 12:25 PM

Tell me about it. Between this, SVR, Saints Row and Fable I'm stumped. Good job I asked the misses to pick me up the latter two for christmas.

After the usual game drought over the last few months, it's not going to be cheap. :(

This is one I might hold off on until later though.

Disturbed316 10-20-2008 02:27 PM

Just thought of about another three games I was interested in getting since I posted that. I dont like asking for games for xmas as they are pretty expensive, so I think I'll go with a couple of them and wait untill the january sales.

Kane Knight 10-20-2008 05:48 PM

Got SR and Fable on the way. Undecided on SVR, and I'm holding off on this one. I'm sure it will be GOOD, I'm just already weighed down by preorders.

Kalyx triaD 10-20-2008 05:51 PM

I haven't spoken about Fable 2 on these forums, but I am indeed hot for that game.

Lord-Of-Darkness 10-20-2008 05:57 PM

Interesting, me and KK went for the same games, but total opposite priorities.

KingofOldSchool 10-20-2008 06:04 PM

Should get Fable 2 via Amazon tomorrow with a $10 GC.

Should get Fallout 3 next week via yourfree360games.com

And hopefully LBP from Amazon next week as well with $10 GC.

And then Smackdown and Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe next month both via yourfree360games.com

KingofOldSchool 10-20-2008 06:06 PM

btw, is there any reviews for this game yet?

Destor 10-20-2008 06:06 PM

Fallout 3 is all that matters to me. Must find a way to play that game.

Dave Youell 10-21-2008 08:58 AM

That does it!

I'm getting a 360, I love my Wii, but there's too many awesome games I'm missing out on.

This Spidey game looks awesome!

That's because we are mortal enemies. :mad:

That last trailer has gone up on marketplace, looks so good on an hdtv.

Disturbed316 10-22-2008 02:35 PM

IGN gave this 5.7...ouch.

Lord-Of-Darkness 10-22-2008 03:05 PM

Good job I don't pay attention to magazine/internet reviews much, as this is preordered.

As an example, I saw a magazine review for TNA the other day, and it got 8/10.

I like to leave things to my own judgement for the most part.

Wow. That can't be right. Few times before was I so sure about a game based on all the vids I've seen. I have to play it to believe it, cause that game looks freakin fun and awesome.

#BROKEN Hasney 10-22-2008 04:23 PM

Other than the GFX, the game looks like the same basic Spidey game combat with some air combat thrown in *shrug*

Doubt I'll bother wasting a disc with all the other stuff coming out. I'll burn Monopoly instead.

It lists all the different review scores for a particular game, so it's easier to tell whether a particular review is way harsh or too lenient. Of course, that's also why they release demos.

KingofOldSchool 10-22-2008 06:30 PM

Yeah my excitement for this game dwindle when I heard the cameos are few and far between. Then I started to realize it would just be another run of the mill Spider-Man game.

Funky Fly 10-22-2008 08:10 PM

If it's anywhere close to Spider-Man 2, I'm good. I don't give a shit about innovation if it's at least that good.

U-Warrior 10-22-2008 11:42 PM

Fuck this. Don't need another spidey game. Not with Fable II, Farcry 2, and Fallout 3, all coming out this month.

Funky Fly 10-22-2008 11:46 PM

Yeah, too much good shit at once.

Fryza 10-23-2008 04:13 AM

Picked it up and been playing it for about two hours. Takes a little getting used to, but it plays pretty nice.

The orange and purple gang members apparently number close to the Chinese, because they are everywhere. Dealing with vehicles is annoying as all Hell, and guys with baseball bats also seem to have super-strength.

I have only seen Venom, Luke Cage, and MJ thus far. Allies are few and far between, which is rather sad. Spider-Man has a rich character selection, as well as an immense molding into other heroes. Wonder if that has to do with licensing rights (A la Hulk, Iron Man, etc).

ClockShot 10-24-2008 08:52 PM

I just played around for a little while. And boy, I think they pulled the trigger on this a bit to early.

I'm practically swinging blind. No compass, no district lines, no nothing. Only thing that stands out is Stark's place on the south side. I only found Little Italy so far, but that's it.

A little more on the tutorial would have been nice. I apparently swing over a car crash and someone got injured. Didn't pop or my radar or nothing just heard the sound, got +10 black points for ignoring it.

Kinda hoping a update comes over the wire. But I can grin and bear most of this for now.

Lord-Of-Darkness 10-25-2008 07:37 AM

Got this yesterday, there are some obvious flaws like Clockshot said, but for the most part I'm enjoying this. Fun game.

Shaggy 10-25-2008 12:58 PM

I went and rentedit yesterday and gave it a all day play though. I played for about five hours and im near the end of the game. Right now im about to fight
SPOILER: show
symbiote electro


The game definently has its flaws with the #1 flaw being the camera. You fight so many enemies at one time that there are just times when the camera is moving around like crazy and by the time it stops you feel like you should be standing on your head while playing this game. The fighting is a little off but the webzip thing is fun and probably the #1 move. There is also a surfing move you can do in the game that is pretty awesome.

I gotta question though???

Does anyone know what is with the black and red points? I havnt figured it out yet and was wondering if it had any effect on anything.

Lord-Of-Darkness 10-25-2008 01:03 PM

It depends on which ending you get as far as I'm aware.

I am gathering that it's your alignment. If you get a lot of black points, it shifts your alignment towards the black suit, and vice versa.

Fox 10-26-2008 04:44 PM

I just rented this game and have only been playing for about 2 hours, but I think that people are being very unfair towards it.

The gameplay and graphics are incredible. It does take a little bit of getting used to, but once you learn how to use the lock-on feature to its fullest extent, the camera changes don't become so obtrusive, but works for you instead. There are some devastating moves in the game and being able to pick up cars and throw them as black Spidey is insanely fun. The swinging is the best I've seen since SM2, and it really is all about timing.

The only problems I have with the game are the VO for Spidey (he sounds like a little bitch) and the two freezes I've experienced so far. Other than that the game is incredibly fun and I think they really captured what it would be like to swing and fight like Spider-Man. I can't wait to pick it back up later tonight - will probably be at it until late in the morning. It's fucking addictive.

Lord-Of-Darkness 10-26-2008 05:17 PM

Definately addictive, and I love the air battles and black suits symbiote tentacle moves.

Been taking my time with missions, to do street crimes etc to level spidey up.

Just on the Venom chase level so far, really enjoying this game so far.

Kenny 10-27-2008 10:22 PM

I was going to get this for PS2, and then I watched the review and got the most disappointing news.

The PS2 version is a 2 dimensional side scroller, which is a bunch of crap and really there's no excuse for it. Games like Spider-Man 2, Ultimate Spider-Man, and Mercenaries 2 are proof that the PS2 is capable of handling a mass 3D environment. If you ask me, they just got lazy with this one.

U-Warrior 10-28-2008 12:34 AM

2-D doesn't mean bad.

Kalyx triaD 10-28-2008 03:22 PM

It does mean half-assed when the PS2 proved it could handle wide-open environments years ago. We shouldn't accept or believe they went 2D for artistic reasons.

Funky Fly 10-28-2008 06:56 PM

Nice avy/custon title there, Kenny. :roll:

That was before he made his debut as part of Team Angle by the way!
