Did I read correctly, are they releasing DLC for this game?

The DLC is just the release of the Cosmic Spider-Man suits for those who didn't get them from Gamestop. They are now available in Xbox Live, and next week, they'll be available for 2.99 at PlayStation Network.

No one knows about further DLC.

 

[0neDisturbedSOB]

That's what I was thinking. Damn, I was hoping for something a little better.

There is a rumor being thrown around at the moment that Beenox is starting work on the Spider-Man reboot game. If this is true, wow. Activision would appear to be giving them ample amount of time to work on this game.

I hope it turns out to be false. I mean, it's great if they're already working on a new Spider-Man game but hopefully it won't be a movie tie-in.

I finished and got the platinum for this game a few days ago. Great game and a much welcome change. My favorite dimension was the Noir bc it did offer something different. Loved the artistic style as well.

I thought 2099 had the best graphics but the levels looked a bit bland and repetitive. They werent visually as diverse and appealing as the others. I loved playing as him though

You can beat up on Deadpool fanboys! LOL...that gave me a laugh especially as you do it DP says something about "who's going to purchase my merchandise?"

Too bad though that there is no replay value. Once you beat it, theres not a whole lot to do other than mop up collectibles and challenges which shouldnt take long.

 

[0neDisturbedSOB]

It happens a lot with Spider-Man games. They're insanely fun the first time through, but then they drop significantly with the replay value. If you're a hardcore nerd like me then you enjoy playing through with the costumes and seeing how each of those looks in their levels. Iron Spider looks great in the 2099 universe.

Movie tie-ins aren't bad, per se. It's just that they're started ontop of the movie's schedule making them have no time at all to come up with something decent.

Might I remind you of Spider-man 2 movie game? Best movie tie-in superhero game EVER. It defined the next gen of Spider-man games.

If they start it this early, there's good time to pull out a somewhat decent project.

EDIT: Well... Now that I think of it... Almost. They have 1 year and a half. It's a bit too tight...

I don't hate movie tie-ins and as you say Spider-Man 2 is a great game. What I meant (which I should have statedin the first post) is that I want a Spider-Man game set in the comicworld. Much like Shattered Dimensions is.

I disagree. I think the Wolverine movie tie-in that came out last year is the best one of them all. It's what the movie should have been.

 

[Nathan]

That's only because they worked on a Wolverine game way before they got the offer to make a Movie tie-in. So they already had a good amount of work done.

 

[Havok83]

well that kinda adds to the point that was discussed in that it had enough time to be properly developed whereas most follow very strict schedules which in the end tends to deliver a subpar product

 

[GamerSlyRatchet]

Man, looking at the Red Dead Redemption thread makes me wish this game had better DLC. The style for this could have easily added bonus levels or at least some Boss Rush/What if?/Arena modes. I know it sold only slightly better than the last game, but still.

 

[dtud]

How much have this sold anyway? Checked around a little and to me it seems like its in the 300-400k area.

 

[Havok83]

Activison confirmed that a new Spider-man game will be released next year. No info other than that

[GamerSlyRatchet]

Huh. That probably means no more DLC for this one, then.

It will probably be the movie adaptation.

 

[Havok83]

I dont think the movie is slated for next year. Isnt that a 2012 project?

 

[GamerSlyRatchet]

True. Honestly, I would be pleasantly surprised if Activision started the game this early. Though I doubt it.

 

[Havok83]

thats why I dont think this will be a movie game. I suspect they'll release another comic base game in fall with the movie tie-in for the spring of 2012

 

[ProjectPat2280]

yea Spider-Man is one of their "yearly" franchises. We'll get another mediocre outing the likes of SD. Altho i did have a bit of fun my first time through SD

 

[LegendaryCaleb]

Why cant they make Spidey games with more quality like Akrham Asylum instead of spitting out quick lil semi-fun games

 

[socool]

Another one? Why can't they take their time dammit!

They could prove me wrong and had Treyarch working on this upcoming one for the past 2 years (since Web of Shadows) Then when the game releases it will be 3 years...holy crap. I just got excited...

 

[The Bruce]

Please make a 3DS exclusive Spider-man game activision!

Thats not Activisions business model. They want yearly installments of their big licenses.

Please make a 3DS exclusive Spider-man game activision!

Why?

 

[Spider-X]

Activision's Business Model:

Make around 2 great games to start out a franchise...then put out yearly installments that in no way (or just barely) improve over the last game until people no longer give a flying crap about it. Squeeze the money out of it until people get wise to their game (pun intended).

It really is sad that Spider-Man is in any way affiliated with that ass clown Robert A. Kotick.
