How often are you going to use Spider-man's most iconic super power in his own game? Seriously? I can only hope the answer is frequently. Why would you even want to play a spider-man game if you're not going to do what the character is most known for?
If their goal is to create the sensation of feeling like Spider-man than the ability to effortlessly scale any wall is a must, the ability to fly above buildings without you or your webs touching them is not. And this isn't even about realism, it's about gameplay. Actually swinging around corners and looping around horizontal bars is something you can't do when you're merely imitating the motion of someone swinging. Webswinging should most often take place between buildings, meaning swinging should most often arch slightly to the side. The only time we should see spidey swinging in straight forward, up down arches is when there is a ceiling above him... not EVERY time.
I'm loving alot of the visuals in this game. Best Spidey model so far, and the combat may also be the best we've had. But I can't bring myself to buy this (new) when the characters key abilities have already been better represented in previous games.
