if you count me as the census. :p

I thought I was the only one who wanted a Noir game. It seems everyone else wants a 2099 game.

Actually, I've heard a lot of people in other forums that want a Noir-inspired Spidey game.

I thought I was the only one who wanted a 2099 game though, lol.

Well, I was someone who complained that SD used Juggernaut and not Rhino, but it makes sense for Juggernaut to be in the game now because I like the aspect of Silver Sable and the Wild Pack wanting the bounty, and I couldn't see Rhino being a big enough threat for a bounty to be on his head. nah I saw when you did that and when you came to that conclusion i ment others that still complain about it otherwise. and just wanted Rhino no matter what. Cause he's classic as they see him. So in way I'm doing this for two reasons. showing he'll show up in atleast one spidey game coming out soon. And the fact that I need some reading entertaiment. lol I'm just in a odd strange mood tonight.

Damn...I've been so good leading up to this point. I haven't been watching a lot of videos and I've only been looking in for big news. Like who is voicing the Spider-Men and the villains. I have been trying to stay away from the game play videos. I mean, its only five days away.

Damn that's why! hahaha I'm blowing so much stuff now and it's only five days. I can't help it. All these leaked videos and information is just so tempting to check out. I honestly can say, I love what I'm seeing.

I think its awesome that Beenox, a developer I've never heard of, appear to be making one bad ass Spider-Man game. The voice acting in it is phenomenal! While I do really want a Classic Spider-Man game, this looks to be a very promising title. I think it was ingenious to incorporate four different Spider-Men and have each vary.

You hear that a lot in games how things will be different between characters. Then you get the game and its minor tweaks. With Beenox you get that sense that they really have gone above and beyond to try and bring a different experience for each universe. From the art style, to game play, to the voices everything seems to have been done with care.

I can't wait for this game. I'm really hoping it is well received and that reviewers really dig it!

Ryuuie

09-01-2010, 11:38 PM

Beenox is known for their porting of Activision's various 360/PS3 titles to PC.

As a PC gamer (as well as PS3 / Wii gamer), I can tell you that Beenox's ports are actually REALLY damn good. They don't have things like DRM, you can mod as much as you want (M:UA 1 has so many awesome custom mods...), they just...work. At least, for me. :P

There's a part of me that's not surprised that their Spider-Man game would be good based on my history with them alone.

LightningFlash

09-01-2010, 11:47 PM

How come they have been showing off Mysterio in the latest trailers, but we haven't seen anything regarding Lady Ock yet? I'm surprised we already know the final villain and what not, but the majority is clueless on the third 2099 villain.

DACMAN

09-02-2010, 12:50 AM

Yeah, well technically the next game will be based off the reboot...

We get a Spidey game every year. So, maybe not. We'd need one for 2011.

DACMAN

09-02-2010, 01:01 AM

Ok, you're switching it up. First, you claimed he doesn't know Marvel Universe. Then he doesn't know 2099. Two completely different subjects.

Also, you are jumping to the conclusion that he doesn't know 2099 just because Miguel quips. There is a difference between ignorance and changing things up. Dan Slott KNOWS 2099. There multiple references to Alchimax, the new Stark company, Flipside, and multiple things lost in a casual reader.

The thing is, this game is INSPIRED by the comic books, not a 100% interpretation. Some changes were made, otherwise Norman and Vulture would be dead in Noir and Hammerhead would not exist. Ultimate Deadpool would be quiet and boring, there would not be 2099 Hobgoblin and Doc Ock, and Noir/2099 Spideys wouldn't quip.

It's like assuming Bendis doesn't know anything about Marvel because he created Hulk Goblin, cancer suit Venom, or Magneto-lite Ock. It's fine that you have a problem with Miguel quipping, but don't assume the writer is an ignorant because of it.

Comparing Bendis to Slott is way off because Bendis's job was to recreate the Marvel universe. Slott's job was to write about the character created by Peter David. Slott wasn't suppose to recreate him the way Bendis was. Spider-Man 2099 was suppose to be brought to videogames. But instead we got a carbon copy of Peter Parker in a different suit.

Oh wait, he's fast. Because Spider-Man 616 isn't or something...:whatever:

it basically is. and since that annoys you, i suggest leaving.

Then stop posting. Seriously, all you do is complain. Leave.

Because I don't blindly praise everything Spider-Man I need to leave? Because I want the best game possible and have genuine concerns I need to leave? How about this. Since you do nothing to add to the conversation, since you do nothing but praise everything about this game even though it looks like it is nothing but a simple beat-em-up like Friend or Foe, maybe you should leave. We get it. You'll love this game no matter what. And since you can't stand the sight of anyone thinking any different than yourself without picking a fight, maybe you should leave.

Look, the point is I want this to be the best Spider-Man game ever. I want to enjoy the heck out of this game. I just think it isn't shaping up too well. It looks like a simple beat-em-up with no variety or depth. Even the swinging looks bad. It kind of reminds me of Friend or Foe. I hope I'm wrong.

Blindly praising is wrong. But your constant negativity is more annoying. Not to mention the fact that you(like a few others here) repeat the same concerns over and over and over.....if you just said it once, that might not be to bad. But every couple of pages, you end up saying the same thing. And that gets kind of annoying to read.

Admittedly this may not be the greatest game ever, but you make it out to be like Friend or Foe? which it clearly is MUCH better than.

On top of that, claiming that the game is ruined because a character isn't EXACTLY like how YOU thought he would be. Again, it's just dramatic. It makes it appear like you want to hate the game, no matter what.

However, having said that, if you pick up the game and you genuinely don't like it, that's totally fair enough. It might just not be your thing.

If you read my posts, you would see you are dead wrong. It's not perfect. The camera is a little wonky and the length could be worrying.

I'm not starting a fight with you. It's just everytime you post, you do nothing but say it looks stupid. How is that helping?

I want a good Spider-man game too, but posting "That was chessy. Looks stupid" Isn't gonna help. Being optimistic helps and that's what I'm trying to do.

From the review: Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions will keep big fans very happy, while others may find the progression a little too familiar. It’s still a solid superhero game and comes packed with a lot of fun moments, just don’t expect it to completely blow you away.

I have a feeling Arkham and dimensions will end up like Dark knight vs Iron man for me...The first one is no doubt the better product in the artistic sense but at the end of the day - It's the second I watch/play more because it's just plain fun...

Oscorp

09-02-2010, 08:56 AM

Just a few opinions on the vid posted before:

There were some good and bad thing that I want to point out:

THE BAD: * Okey there is just something I really don't like and it's all the electric demons all over the place. It TOTALLY reminds me of Web Of Shadows with those Electrolings or what they were called. I just don't like it. I would have prefered if it actually was Electro himself who attacked you all the time while you try to help those civilians. All those Electro minions made the whole level a bit too messy if you ask me.
* Electro to become a giant too (like Sandman does) is overkill in my opinion. Sandman is enough. Electro could become a huge threat with the tablet in normal size too. He could gain alot more speed and electric power in general I think, instead of becoming huge and creating demons.

THE GOOD: * I LOVE the voice acting for Electro. Totally fits him and I could definitely see the 616 Electro have that voice too.
* The 1st person moments are really great and the ones in this vids are not an exception.

One of my worries is that, because we've all been wanting a decent Spidey game for so long, that we'll all hail something that is just fun as amazing. Even if it is fun, I hope the reviewers don't hold back on exactly what is flawed with it, so Activision doesn't just treat that as the standard and churn out more identical games.

Look at Batman AA and the sequel. The first game was already such a high standard, and the sequel looks like it's going to raise the bar even further (if you've seen the latest updates, it's gonna have sidequests, and the city is 5 times the size of Arkham, which is just phenomenal).

Sure this game looks fun, but i'm not going to praise the lord just because we finally get something playable.

I don't think anyone mentioned the flaws of B:AA. I mean there ARE some. I've run into bugs, camera issues. With each review, it's as if the game was the best game of all time and had absolutely no imperfections whatsoever.

But those bugs aren't common. If you ran into a bug or camera issue chances are you aren't running in to them all the time. There are flaws in EVERY game, but how often they show determines the end quality. Some bugs aren't even worth mentioning.

Ryuuie

09-02-2010, 11:52 AM

I read plenty of flaws about Batman, mainly in the final boss fight and some bug eyed lip synching issues. I read about that across quite a few reviews... But that isn't really an issue anyway, because we can already see that Rocksteady aren't resting on their laurels and just churning out Arkham Asylum 2.0. They're actively trying to improve on as many things as possible, and do something different. I believe they made the comparison between Begins and Dark Knight.

I'm just saying that the risk with any successful Activision game is that once they hit a success, they don't improve they just mass produce, hence why the Spidey franchise hit the slums in the first place.

Am I the only one who didn't mind that boss fight? :/

Oh yea, if SM:SD does good, we're gonna get SM:SD 2. You know what though...I've NEVER seen a trilogy for Activision's licensed titles (movie games not counting)... There's no XML 3, no M:UA 3...

Granted, there IS a X-Men RPG coming but there's no indication it'll be XML 3.

But those bugs aren't common. If you ran into a bug or camera issue chances are you aren't running in to them all the time. There are flaws in EVERY game, but how often they show determines the end quality. Some bugs aren't even worth mentioning.

I have one that's worth mentioning and it's kinda game breaking. While searching for Dr. Young, I jumped one of the pipes and couldn't get off. At all. lol I was stuck there no matter what I tried. I had to restart the game. However, that is the only game breaking bug...the rest were camera and random bugs like lip syncing.

It was about the same level of fun as chasing one of the villains in Ultimate Spider-Man for the umpteenth time. Just less frustrating. For an otherwise great game, the whole Super Joker fight was a letdown.

Like Ultimate Spider-Man and the PS1 games? Considering this seem to have a pretty similar feel the the PS1 games (minus Rino Romano) I was wondering if Beenox have made it as a sequal to those.

Probably not and it doesn't really matter but one can ask.

The only thing in common, however, between this game and the PS1/N64 game is that Stan Lee is the narrator.

I played the tutorial at Best Buy today, and it is definitely interesting and varied due to each Spider having their own personal moves and attacks. Madame Web basically goes to each of the four universes and talks to each one, and they all are snarky as hell, which is good. Noir Spidey will remind you of Arkham Asylum a LOT regarding what he can do, that's all I gotta say.

Yeah, it's not a bad thing. I played the demo yesterday. Noir will definitely be up there as one of my favorites. The animations are really nice and it does remind you of Arkham Asylum except you feel more brutal than you did in AA. In SD you hit the guy 2 or 3 times before you web him up. In AA you rarely hit anyone lol

In the Iron Spider 2099 vignette, it looks like he doesn't claw scratch as much...

Also, to the 2099 readers, should I read 2099 before I play the game? I've read all of Noir, a very good chunk of Amazing, and every Ultimate comic up until Ultimatum...should I at least thumb through 2099 or read up on the Marvel Wikia or something?

Uh...I dunno. I don't think you need to. As DAC already stated, this Spider-man 2099 acts a little differently than his comic counterpart. He's sarcastic and ruthless in the comics but more like Amazing Spider-man in this. They do however make references to past villains (like when he comments that Hobgoblin is crazier than Flipside) So if you want to understand those parts, yes, you should. If you're like me, no. I don't really care lol

I dont think one ever has to read a comic book series in order to enjoy a comic book game. The only exception seemed to be Ultimte Spiderman which was actually created within continuity of the actual series. 2099 isnt necesary material for this game

I just saw one clip from a 1st person fight in Amazing and Spidey says to Kraven, "Hey, Kraven. Remember that version of your vest that could shoot lazers out of the eyes?"

Written by Peter David, the first issue was one of the biggest sellers in comic history, a Spider-Man that kills and is ruthless, a great origin, the coolest costume I have ever seen, and in my top five favorite comic characters of all time...

That's pretty damn awesome. Since Marvel is owned by Disney, I bet they can do that without much problems. haha

That's funny because that's exactly what I thought of Noir. 2099 offered a great backround for stories to take place. It gave us a new character with a great origin. His powers are different than Spider-Man's making him all that more interesting. Noir is just a gimmick. He's Peter Parker in the 30's with spider powers. That's a gimmick. The comics weren't good at all.

Oh and while 2099's origin was great and extremely original, Noir's was beyond ridiculous.

As for originality with either of them, what a load of crap. I agree with the above comment that neither beat 616.

Arghhhh so frustrated. I was really feeling in a Spidey gaming mood because of this game, so I went to rent out a Spidey game. Between Spidey 3 and WOS I went with 3 and it is unbelievably ****. I don't remember it being this bad. I actually quite enjoyed it at the time, but the swinging and movement sucks and the fighting is so awkward and stilted. This game has actually aged really really badly.

So I gave up and played Batman Arkham Asylum instead :D

I agree.

Anyway, right now I'm playing Spider-Man Web Of Shadows. I still think it has the best combat and web swinging. I mean my Spidey is totally maxed out and I have all the moves, so maybe that changes it somewhat, but I still think it was the best for that.

In look and personality. Peter from 616 kept to himself most of high school. Ultimate Peter is much more out-going. He also had the girls all over him like Ultimate did. 616 Peter didn't have girls all over him until college. Not to mention his relationship with Brock was straight out of Ultimate.

I'm not saying Spectacular Spider-Man = Ultimate Spider-Man. In fact I think there are more classic Spider-Man stuff in the show than Ultimate. But Peter is 100% Ultimate Peter in that show.

Mass Effect is probably the best sci-fi anything I've ever experienced. I need to watch Dune. And to be honest, I was really disappointed by District 9. I kept hearing it was going to change science fiction and so forth. Then it ended up being ok at best. I hated the main character like nothing else.

And Aliens is such a classic now. You start out with a sci-fi horror, and then go right into an action sci-fi movie. That's brilliant.

Tomorrow's villain will most likely be Carnage.

And sure enough,

http://comics.ign.com/articles/111/1115287p10.html

Carnage is voiced by Fred Tatasciore.

Strange, I don't really have as much of a problem with Carnage infesting the city and creating symbiote-zombies as much as I had a problem with Venom's presence in WoS.

Maybe it's because this version of Carnage is the Ultimate version and is just an unstable creature and would make sense to reproduce so much when it didn't make any sense that Venom had the ability to spawn out a giant five-headed creature.

Or maybe Electro isn't involved and creating those stupid Electrolings when electricity is supposed to be a weakness, lol.

Edit: IGN had this to say about Mysterio for Shattered Dimensions: While this feature was going, we learned that Mysterio would be another bad guy standing in the way of our heroes (and from the design of him, we're guessing he's Noir-based).

It's nice to know that IGN does their homework for this game :whatever:

Yes, at least with Carnage it makes some sort of sense. In WOS, they didn't even give you a ****ing explanation why Venom suddenly multiplied. He just did.

LightningFlash

09-03-2010, 05:00 PM

Yah, I wish WoS had more story than just combat for sure.

Plus, I don't understand how he wouldn't have been weak from the beginning of the game when part of the symbiote left him for Peter.

"The Carnage in Shattered Dimensions appears in the Ultimate universe. This version of Carnage was created when the Venom suit was bonded with Peter Parker's DNA, creating a new creature with a talent for mimicry and a hunger for flesh. "

Someone hasn't read the Ultimate comics. e.e;

I'm sure the assumption is that the suit is now off Peter and is an entity of it's own.

Then the suit is directly the same suit from USM comics because if it is a mix of the Venom suit and Peter's DNA...then, following that, we should be playing as Carnage, not as Spider-Man as...that's what is going on when you play Spider-Man. It's Spider-Man + the Venom suit with complete control thanks to Madame Web.

I think the person who wrote the article is assuming that, since the USM game was once canon (it isn't anymore), that that's how Ultimate Carnage was created.

Plus, I don't think the suit could survive without it's host. The USM game made it seem that Carnage would die without Peter and wasn't looking for any stability, it was just bloodthirsty for no reason. I seriously hope that isn't the Carnage they used. The comics did it a lot better.

Carnage is much more an Ultimate villain because Carnage is part Peter. Carnage is Peter's DNA mutated by Curt Conners as a way to cure cancer and expand upon Richard Parkers research. It actually has nothing to do with the black suit.

Wii and DS interviews out:

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/interview/23969
http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/interview/23970

Some interesting points:

WII:
Nintendo World Report: I heard that the Wii version will not use motion controls for swinging. Why was this decision made? Are there any motion or pointer controls used in the game?

Thomas Wilson: The reason is simple: it just does not work. Considering the amount of time you need to web-swing in the game, your arm would simply grow tired after a few minutes of gameplay. It is something we established very early on after we spent some time with the Wii versions of previous Spider-Man games.

NWR: In working with the story, did you have any say in it, or was it all comic book writer Dan Slott's work? Are there any things that can't be done to Spider-Man in video games?

TW: The making of the story was a collaborative effort between Beenox, Activision, and Dan Slott. Dan Slott fleshed out the details of the story very early on once we informed him we wanted to make a game that involved playing multiple versions of Spider-Man. We then provided all the necessary content during production (level design and locations, boss encounters, scripted events, etc.) to Dan and Activision so he could write the script. We were lucky enough to be involved in the script approval process all the way to the end of the project.

NWR: What lessons were learned during development?

TW: I will say this: make a game that stays true to the DNA of such an iconic character as Spider-Man and the fans will thank you for it.

DS:
Brad Lansford: We put our efforts towards providing unique gameplay experiences for Noir, 2099, and Amazing, rather than include Ultimate Spider-Man. While we’re all fans of the Ultimate Spider-Man, the Black Suit was featured in Web of Shadows, and reducing our super heroes to three gave us a greater opportunity to provide the highest quality experience possible. Black Suit fans will be pleased to hear that you can still unlock the Black Suit for Amazing Spider-Man when you earn the Award for Alternate Costume mode.

I went by Best Buy on my way home tonight and they had the game available to play. I thought it would be just a demo, but it looked like the full game. I played through the tutorial and a small part of the Kraven level, totaling about 25 minutes in all. I was mainly trying to get a feel for the control of the game compared to the past games. My feelings are still rather mixed, though I am excited about getting the game and looking forward to playing. One thing to note is that I was standing close to a large HDTV while playing, so that made me feel rather disoriented.

I really like the new web zip ability. It makes getting around fast and fun when it's available. The web swinging feels okay, but it's obviously not a big point of emphasis for the game. Feels like a slight downgrade from previous games, but I'll have to see for sure with more time to get a feel for the controls. The move where Spidey shoots two webs above him and pulls himself straight up is called a Web Jump and is now triggered when you hold the A button down while on the ground or in the air. I preferred the system from WoS where you tapped the swing button without pointing the movement stick in a direction to trigger the move. Now it feels like it happens slower than before. The worst part of movement for me is sticking to walls. It's just not smooth anymore. No wall running, and you can't stick to all walls. No more dedicated button for it either. This feels the clunkiest of all the controls.

The little bit of combat I saw was pretty fun. Here the controls feel like an upgrade over previous games. I only had a few combos available, but it was pretty free-flowing and fun. The light and heavy attacks feel different from each other. One thing of note was the Web Strike move is a big improvement in my opinion. It is quicker and no longer overly dramatic. It also seems like it has so many more options for flowing into many other moves afterwards, opposed to the three options you had in WoS. I'm glad that the Web Strike button is no longer dedicated, which opens up a lot more control options in combat. For instance, the same button is used to grab enemies when up close.

So I was pretty satisfied with what I saw, but my lower expectations on swinging and movement were confirmed. I've seen a ton of videos of gameplay this week, and I'm definitely excited for it. The story and atmosphere have really drawn me in, especially compared to the boring stories/presentation of WoS and the last two movie games.

Actually you're wrong. Traces of the black suit were still in Peter's blood (not only was that in the game but the comics as well). Mix that in with some of Connor's lizard DNA, Peter's spider DNA, some obvious human DNA from Peter and Connors in there, and you have an inhuman abomination.

I don't mind paying for DLC, if I think it's worth it,:o and THIS is definitely worth it, pretty much anything Webhead related is, DON"T JUDGE ME PEOPLE!!!:argh::o:oldrazz::D

Wow, I love the alts. I really like the insulated, 1602, and original Noir concept ones.

I too think it's a shame Reilly didn't make it in.I would have preferred that over both Bag man and Secret Wars.Anyways all the other alts look awesome but as already stated it looks kinda weird when tendrils come out from one of the alts.But it's no biggie.

I'll simply not use the Tendtril attacks when I use the classic or insulated suit.

I read some spoilers on how the final boss battle plays out, and it sounds really cool.

How does it play out?

Maybe a giant Mysterio once more? Lol.

She is plated in pure gold armor from head to toe. Her eyes are hidden between Noir-esque goggles and, get this, she has PINK tentacles. Yeah...I'm not kidding. Pink tentacles.

Meh, not bad. Her costume does sound like the pic of her on wikipedia, except for the pink tentacles.

I'm just waiting for someone to have a typo and call them her pink testicles now.

You don't have to get all pissy with me because you don't know your Spider-Man history.

Well, instead of being a dick, you know, you could've read earlier posts where some people(including myself) already discusssed this topic.

And knowing Ultimate's history isn't anything compared to knowing 616's history.

Just saying.

That video was lacking this!

I'm totally fine with Scarlet Spider than this. Besides, having this alt. costume would make me want Spider-Carnage.

Would you please tell, in spoiler tags? :)

Ok, here you guys go. Taken from Liwakip on the Gamespot/Gamefaqs boards.

You fight a godlike Mysterio as Noir, Ultimate, 2099 and Amazing in that exact order.

Noir, hide in the shadow, move foward and do a elimination.

Ultimate is a Battle againts misterio, he summons electro slaves and are very annoying and summons previus Bosses they try to attack you with 1 of their attack but just ONCE and them they are gone, dodge, destroy the energy ball where they are summon.

2099: A free falling battle the 1st stage and 2nd are easy but in the 3rd free falling is where it gets hard.

Amazing: Just defead every enemy until you can attack misterio

EPIC battle but way to easy EVEN IN HARD.

Oh and one thing, does anyone know if the Spidey that we play as in the Ultimate universe... can we play as him in his normal red and blue suit? or can we only play the missions in the Ultimate universe in the black suit? :S

Ugh. :/ ... still better than nothing I guess, is the red and blue a DLC or something? or is it one of the unlockable alt. costumes?

Unlockable

All you're basically doing is showing off each Spider-Man's strengths during the final battle, which is what the player pretty much does throughout the game, haha. I would have preferred each Spider-Man facing off Mysterio for their respected style(Amazing, Noir, et cetera) and then once one Mysterio gets defeated, the other Mysterio's will become weakened in their respected battles.

new preview. the only "breaking point" seems to be the camera. if that's the only real problem this game could be a winner.

From one of the Kraven walktroughs I saw on YouTube, it seems you can earn character bios at the end of each level for the Bonus menu. Interesting.

Yeah the camera can get a bit difficult at times but it's nothing that would be considered game breaking.

That's cool, sort of like in the PS1 games you had Stan Lee reading the character's bio.

Yeah, I saw that in the costume vid, too. It's just like PS1 Spidey and B:AA. I like being able to look at the character's in detail like that.

That's not the best defense.

1) Fat people aren't the only people who eat at McDonalds.
2) You just insulted everyone here...

I preordered this yesterday... Yeah, the camera thing doesn't bother me at all because IMHO camera can be completely up to the player. Some people hated the camera in the Soul Reaver games...I didn't mind them at all.

To each his own....camera... :p

Wow...nice comeback, but there is a slight flaw in this statement.

I eat fast food whenever I can and want, and I have the metabolism like a horse, so...no, not everyone that eat at McDonalds is a fatty :woot:

"that dude" is me...

I think a lot of people in these forums have their little own Sheldon deep within their souls, lol.

My brother brother calls me Sheldon because I can be such a douche.
