Spider-Man: Edge of Time - Part 2

[dtud]

Well while I never asked for a linear Spider-Man game, and I'll admit I was a little put off at first, I eventually came around and enjoyed it for what it was. There's little reason to complain about it at this stage anyway. However I do hope that now that we got 2 linear, kinda experimental games focusing on big world changing events, we will get a free roaming street level story as the next game in a few years.

A couple of things I noticed by the way, the t-shirt MJ wears in the pic on Peter's desk is the same she wears in-game. Not a complaint, just something I noticed. Peter changes hair color from brown to black when the time warp happens. In the previous behind-the-scenes you could see that on his employment badge. In case anyone wondered. And J. Jonah Jameson appears in the opening cinematic if the description of it on Marvel.com from one of the SDCC panels is correct. Which I assume it is.

 

[Jick]

Yes, definately.

What I hate is this: People who say 'O you guys asked for them to be linear like Arkham Asylum and now you want free roam again...'

No. I never asked for linear. Not once. Having Spidey in a linear game is like paying a prostitute to cook your dinner. Completely f***ing pointless, and a big waste of money when you could be getting so much more... bang for your buck

That's quite radical.

I was one of those who asked for a more linear game because I was tired of the sandbox style. They couldn't quite get the grasp of fun with their last efforts at open-world games, making them extremely repetitive, not to mention that one of the most beloved games by the fans was the first Spidey game for PS1, which was more linear and had a lot more diversity and unlockable content, which is something missing nowadays.

Then I got SD. I'm satisfied. If they want to go back to sandbox again, then all the power to them, but know how to make it fun and not repetitive, like InFAMOUS.

 

[spider13]

thats something elsa I'm really liking about this game is that his support ch. are in it.

It's madden 2012 it's football. I don't think anyone can get try enjoyment out of that and also they make madden 2013 in a year.

One could easily say the same thing about a mediocre Spider-Man game.Oh and guess what? There will be another Spider-Man game next year. No different than Madden.

inFamous would be the PERFECT template for Spider-Man. I mean i would go apes**t if we got a Spidey game that was as good as inFamous 2.

 

[BattleCat]

I skipped Madden 2011.

But yes, i could buy it for PS2, but it would look and play like a PS2 game, i rather buy a ps3/360 game that looks and plays like a ps3/360 game.

It's Madden, nothing changes but some minor presentation features. The gameplay is, and will always be BAD. Sure, it looks like a next gen game....but that's it. NFL 2k5> any Madden.

thats my point. eot of time is going to be different then sd. but madden is alot like dynasty warriors It's best to wait till a couple of years later.

None of the dynasty warriors are worth buying back to back accept 4 and 5.

Thats not accurate. Compare Madden 09 to Madden 2010 or 2011. If you cant spot the differences, then you are an idiot. I stopped playing Madden in 2006 and didnt come back until 2010 as i felt they just got lazy after the license buy out. They are beginning to get back to their pre 06 form.

I will agree with you on 2K5 tho. I played NFL 2K5 up until Madden 2010 came out. I would just download updated rosters for it.

 

[Godzilla2014]

I agree that the Black Cat design could use a bit subtlety and not so much being shoved in your face "Look! A hot, skanky chick!" You can have sexy designs without boobs almost dropping out of the outfit.

Agreed.

Agreed completely.

What I LOVED was the Venom gameplay, that alone upped its replay value for me... something which the Spider-Man 2 game didn't really have a lot of. Sadly.

I loved the tagline, it was something like "Be legendary. Be predatory. Be both."

**** YEAH. XD

I did as well. The problem I had eventually with playing as Venom was the lack of destructible objects and environment interactivity. You pretty much got to toss cars around and that was it.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

Well I mean, Black Cut is kind of a **** and like the village bicycle of the Marvel Universe. But like I said it is a sort of fetishized model.

that's actually not entirely true.. from what we know of, she gets around alot less than people like She-Hulk and Mystique do...

i mean, the people that we know she's slept with has been what?

-Spider-man
-Flash Thompson (most likely)
-Puma
-Foreigner
-A girl (we don't know who)
-college boyfriend who raped her..

True.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

True.

yeah.. i think she acts more like a ****ty tease than is actually a ****, if that makes sense.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

like 95% of the women one would meet downtown on a Thursday night

Exactly.

Finally got around to see that behind the scenes with Laura and looking at Spidey 2099, I thought his eyes where like reddish or something, due to being able to see in the dark. And did he shoot his webbing from the top of his forearms or was it the same hand gesture as Pete? I couldn't quite tell from the quick glimpse in the video--trying to not nitpick or anything, just curious.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Is anybody going to buy this on opening day? Or pre-order?

Not me

Dang man, i wish my list was that small. This fall is going to wipe me out.

Madden 2012

My bro would be so proud, he loves Madden

Metal Gear HD collection

Collects from 1-3?

 

[TheVileOne]

Unless this game has intense replay value, it looks like it might be a rental to me.

I think Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4 (PS2 version) had some of the best replay value for any game ever made.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

MGS2, MGS3 and MGS:PW

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Top two games on my list

MGS2, MGS3 and MGS:PW

Keeping the first to be purchased on the PSN store, nice

[Spider-Aziz]

What if he was Batman in B&R? Or Mr. Freeze?

 

[Troy_Parker]

Huh? He was Batman. :|

And, yeah... I'll wait a little for the price to drop on this one. I only got SD in the first few weeks it came out because I needed a game for my (then) new PS3. XD

 

[spider13]

Why did you remind me that he was batman? do you know how many hours a spent trying to forget that movie?

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Its something we all deal with. Good doses of Batman Begins, the Dark Knight and playing Arkham Asylum helps to cure all Schumacher ills.

With all the great games that were available back at the time:
Batman Arkham Asylum
inFAMOUS
Uncharted 1 & 2
Assassin's Creed 2 & Brotherhood
Metal Gear Solid 4
etc...

You chose that?

Why did you remind me that he was batman? do you know how many hours a spent trying to forget that movie?

He was good in the role, good movie or a bad one, he was well cast and performed nicely

Its something we all deal with. Good doses of Batman Begins, the Dark Knight and playing Arkham Asylum helps to cure all Schumacher ills.

And soon to come The Dark Knight Rises and sooner Arkham City
