The Amazing Spider-Man 2 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Video Game Thread - Part 3

Doesn't have to be a movie game. But that's still not a good excuse. They're capable of more and they should be willing to put more effort, time, and resources into a product.

Activision don't give two ****s about creating a great Spidey game.
All the care about is the dosh. Hopefully, we eventually get an arkham scaled spidey game. But I don't see that happening anytime soon.

Doesn't mean I can't criticize them for past and current work. Or that I can't desire a game like I previously mentioned.

I think this game could of been a lot better if they just made it for the newer consoles. I really wish the game could look like this, and I think Beenox wanted to make the game like this but couldn't because it's a movie tie in so they had a limited time to develop it, and because activision wanted them to make it for all platforms.

I really love the look of Kraven

Sorry to burst your bubble but that is some marketing image/concept art at most. The city wont look like that.

You've said youself, TASM2 is getting the same number of villains that PS2's Spider-Man 2 got. Besides, it's not about quantity, it's about quality. Give me PS2's SM2 villains over sucky SM3 game any day of the week.

If you want to see another example of quality over quantity, look any further than the Arkham games. SNES Adventures of Batman and Robin is still my favorite Batman game ever, and that had more villains than the Arkham ones, the difference is that with time, it's harder to make justice to all these villains in just one game. From all things that you could nitpick, I don't think "lack of villains" is a valid criticism when it comes to the TASM2 game.

You can't compare TASM2 game to SM2. Sounds stupid but SM2 was the first free roam Spidey game ever. It makes sense to compare it to the free roaming TASM1.

How many villains did Batman and Robin have? I mean in Arkham City we got:
Joker
Two-Face
Penguin
Riddler
Ivy
Harley
Catwoman
Calander Man
Mr. Freeze
Hugo Strange
Ra's
Talia
Mad Hatter
Black Mask
Hush
Bane
Clayface
Deadshot
Grundy
Croc Cameo

It's fair to say Rocksteady did all those characters justice (except for many Bane).

I think its more about the story than the villians for me. The stories in Beenox's game have been pretty lackluster.

Agree. Love Shattered Dimensions but that's because of the amount of villains and the 4 Spider-Men than story. Edge of Time was a cool concept but I feel like it would be a better comic story than video game story.

I actually agree with Levitikuz. Spidey video games should have a lot of villains. And real effort should be put into making them worthwhile. I want to fight Mysterio, Venom, and Green Goblin in the same game. And I want them to all be well developed. No reason it can't be done. The Arkham Games pull it off and I even think they could do a little better with it.

He gets it.

That HQ image of Kraven could really work on the big screen one day...

I thought Edge of Time was an incredibly cool concept and would've worked wonderfully as a video game. However, it was a rushed job and was developed only so Activision could go each year with a Spider-man game being released. I think the only reason we didn't get one last year is because they had the Deadpool game already in the works. Otherwise, yeah, we would have gotten yet another rush job on a very mediocre Spider-man game.

EoT though was a brilliant idea and one that would have benefitted from more development time. Imagine if they were able to create the game so that it wasn't so automatic. Meaning that the game actually changed depending on your actions--what you did in the past had influence on the events of the future and wasn't just a preprogrammed series of events. That would have made for some very interesting gameplay.

There goes the hope for a walkthrough trailer next week. They wouldn't post something like that if they knew for sure that there'll be a trailer next week.

Hey Beenox

 

[Spider-man95]

What do you mean? They said when they announced it was coming, that it would be shown soon. They're making fun of themselves because it wasn't "soon" enough.

Relax..

Edit: I see everyone is misinterpreting it...

I hope you are right. I can't stand this any longer. I'm a human being you know, they can't just play with my feelings like that.

It's even worse due to vacation, I can't sleep because I want this game so much (I mean I have literally nothing to do, everything I wanted to do = already done and still 2 more weeks off).

 

[kbrooksgohan]

They are taking way too long.

 

[smidders]

I still think its next week since they sent me that email, They also sent me a email a week before the last trailer and that was right and the sent me the last trailer a day before it was released, I don't see why they would lie this time.

This is why Beenox needs to get away from Activision.

Exactly.

 

[Shikamaru]

LMAO That's hilarious.

 

[Spider-man95]

I just tweeted them: HAHA......so, when is it coming?

It would be nice for them to put the specific date on twitter.

 

[Spider-man95]

Anyone else think it's kinda weird to have the Spider symbol be black and white?

Also, loving the zoomed out camera! ^_^

 

[Shikamaru]

That image doesn't look too bad.

 

[Spider-man95]

Haha, from Seven's twitter.
