It matters to me, dammit!!!!

With the long history of games based on movies, both sides need to take pointers
Gamers should NEVER expect a very good story
Developers should make gameplay fun and good

I think though that's one of the problems Aziz...Spider-Man is a hero that offers great tales to be told. I mean, think of a Spectacular Spider-Man game! *swoon* It'd be awesome to have mob bosses etc going about the city.

Also, Spider-Man's rogues gallery allows developers to weave multiple stories into one great story arc. There is just a lot of potential for a Spider-Man game. I'm surprised it has yet to be harnessed.

Unfortunately the movie-based games will never give us that overall experience. There's just too much red tape and restriction. For us to truly get that AC experience with Spidey, it obviously needs to be a comic based game and then whoever develops the game needs the time/money and freedom to create that type of grand AAA title.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Maybe they should hire Greg Weisman, and give him free reign in storytelling
One thing they must place in later games is Web of Shadows swing kick, that game has the best swing kick in a Spidey game

I'd love to have a truly alive New York City with a "Marvel" touch. I feel like, with every Marvel free-roam game, none has ever truly felt like it took place within the Marvel universe. Sure there's the Baxter Building in the Hulk game in '08 and Ultimate Spider-Man, but I'd love it if when you're swinging around, in addition to all these Marvel landmarks, you see the Human Torch fly by or Iron Man fly in the distance. You'd get billboards that make reference to numerous heroes and etc. Maybe when you come across a crime in progress, a hero would sometimes already be there fighting them off and you could take the bad guys down together.

Or a "race you to it" scenario
Boy, that would be awesome

 

[Resistance61513]

I'd like for them to incorporate the city into the gameplay. I mean, imagine doing the Green Goblin battle from the Spider-Man movie game inside Spider-Man 2's New York. That would be awesome!

I never understood why the city was never utilized to it's potential. There are so many things they could do with the city to make memorable scenarios.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Speaking of SM2 city, it's the only free roam game in Manhattan having Madison square garden
[PROTOTYPE 2] might be another game

I would like to see a spiderman game with alternate costumes that do what they did in the comics. I think it's a waste to add costumes that don't do what they did in the comics. It's kinda lazy imo.

 

[TheWallCrawler]

It's not that easy. Spider-Man's way of transportation and moves are very, very complicated.

Just take a boss fight like the first big robot in ASM. Would it even work to have that one with SM2 web swinging? At the same time, SM2 web swinging otherwise is much more fun (IMO). One would think "Hey we could have both", well that wouldn't make any logical sense why physics would apply in one setting but not in the other.

And so on. I think a Spider-Man game must be a nightmare for a dev team!

Exactly. I wonder if we'll have to wait for a PS4 title to get the perfect Spider-Man game like Batman Arkham City is the perfect Batman game

 

[UltimateWebhead]

While I agree with your sentiment, there's a very good chance ASM2 the game will be on the PS4.

Well, Beenox is on a good way now with the Web Rush mechanic. That actually solves alot of problems!

If we'll get an AC quality Spider-Man game in the PS4 generation, then I'm very happy!

I'm so glad Beenox were able to find a version of the web rush that worked so well. There was a time during development that they almost scrapped it altogether. It's such an awesome gameplay mechanic, not so much innovative as it is perfectly suited for Spidey.

If we'll get an AC quality Spider-Man game in the PS4 generation, then I'm very happy

You and me both, my man.

I want that too

If they hired Greg Weisman the game would get cancelled and never be finished

True, sadly true
Or we might get a first game and the sequel is cancelled

 

[Drummerdude7]

Who wants to bet that there will be a Superior Spider-man alternate costume in this one

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Doc Ock?

 

[Drummerdude7]

The costume, yeah.

 

[kbrooksgohan]

Tbh I wouldn't mind a game with the actual Ock as the main character. I would really like to see what else he could bring to spiderman and his science. For example the claws....and even the web dome he made when him and spiderman where falling to the ground.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

The costume, yeah.

Doc Ock wants to bet, cause his version of the costume is SUPERIOR

 

[UltimateWebhead]

Lawl.

Didn't get that the first time. Slow day today.

 

[kbrooksgohan]

I hope that they really take their time with the next game. Fixing the webslinging is first and foremost for me. Imo they should take the Sm2 swing system verbatim and even the tricks in the air and improve it even more.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

More thinking, more thinking
Beenox should just do what they like with the next game, as long as they give us suits with their abilities, and there to be more than fighting to do in the game
