I will most likely prefer TASM game over EoT, mainly because it can't be a rehash. I'm especially glad that they can't use those stupid huge web hammer/webhammer/websack stuff anymore, that really ruined the experience for me

 

[spideyguy16]

This.
Also it will probably play a lot like usm

 

[VenomSpawn]

USM is still my favorite Spidey game. It's the only game I still play every once in a while.

 

[spideyguy16]

Me too. I actually feel like spidey. It's a great game

 

[VenomSpawn]

I wish I had it for the PC, I'd mod the hell out of it with skins. I'd probably make a skin with the new movie costume.

What about Spider-man 2?

 

[spideyguy16]

Usm is funner story wise and sm2 is also awesome respectively

Probably. I wonder how Beenox handles the more grounded style after SD and EoT... the thought of huge web hammers in TASM is still haunting me

I wish that just for once they have took their time and designed a new different kind of control scheme while still maintaining the best parts of the old control scheme. For example make him use agility and tactics when taking out bad guys instead of the basic button mashing that we have gotten recently.

If they creat a THIRD spidey gam thats pretty identical to edge of time i will be pissd

Yeah me too... but the reason they rehashed the control scheme is probably that they thought nobody really had problem with it. SD was getting so much praise because it surprised everyone, not because it was so good (very average IMO), but they didn't know that. A lot of praise and people didn't care enough to complain about the control mechanics, why would they change it?

I'll compare it to Arkham City: Same control mechanics with improvements/slight changes
EoT: Same control scheme with improvements/slight changes

the only difference is that Beenox was unaware that the control scheme wasn't too good. But I'm sure that they have gotten enough complains about the rehash problem in EoT, I doubt that they wouldn't learn from their mistake

For possible reference please check Thor and Green Lantern movie tie-in games, and don't forget development time issues

I don't want a movie tie-in for Amazing Spider-Man, if they were working on it like "X-Men Origins Wolverine" before the movie I'd want to, but not now

USM is still my favorite Spidey game. It's the only game I still play every once in a while.

It's one of my top 5 Spidey games, best wallbounce system

I have it, don't know how to mod it
I wish I could find a good no disc patch

What about Spider-man 2?

I wish this one was available for PC, then I'd be able to play all of my favorite 5 Spider-Man games on PC

Slightly worse than the abomination before it I think
I don't mind the control scheme as it was in that first game, not so interested in it being repeated, not annoyed for this game though

To be fair, nobody knows how long they have actually been working on the game, they could have worked on it for a while now and just kept it a secret

 

[Oscorp]

One thing I've never liked in tie-in games such as the Spider-Man ones, is that villains who are not in the movie feel kinda misplaced IMO. They don't really fit into the movie storyline and thus it feels weird.

 

[spideyguy16]

I feel they are placed fine.

 

[Spidey_62]

I thought they worked the villains pretty well into the story in SM2.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Agreed. Felt very solid and put togeather.

 

[TheWallCrawler]

Yep. And now days the storylines of these movie tie-in games don't even have to be from the movie, they can just do a storyline that happends after/before the events of the movie (Green Lantern, Iron-man 2, Captain America and Thor had this also)
Then it would be an even smaller problem to fit the villains in the game. But the question is, do we want this for the game? To me that would be pretty cool, but I really want to have an epic battle with the Lizard

 

[Spidey_62]

What would you guys think if they diverged from the movie's story completely and did what the Sega Marvel movie games have done and made unrelated stories in the movie's universe?

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ I would like a mixture of both, tbh. Like S-M2, lol.

 

[Spidey_62]

Yeah, I agree with you. I like how SM2 blended the movie but still did an original story.

 

[Spider-Vader]

I'm pretty sure the ASM game has been in development since Spider-Man 4 was announced. Maybe even before since Activision probably knew that there was going to be another Spidey movie.

 

[VenomSpawn]

I wouldn't say that long, but Beenox could have started working on it when Activision hired them to do all the Spidey games (that was in January, right?) Or maybe before that, but I doubt it.

 

[Troy_Parker]

Doubt TASM game was in development before there was even news of TASM movie.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I do too

Yeah, SM2 is the strongest the way they fitted villains in
