The Amazing Spider-Man - more details

This information comes from the most recent issue of Game Informer...

•One screenshot features Dr. Connors helping Spider-Man out

•Random crimes ( bank heists, muggings, and car chases) are spread throughout the city.

•The game is after the movie. You could potentially have a few things spoiled in relation to Parker and other people featured in the movie since this takes place afterwards.

•The game has a built in reader. You can unlock full comic book issues to read in the game such as Amazing Fantasy #15(Spidey's first appearance)

•The game tries to capture Spider-Man's lucha libre inspired moveset from the movie.

•Near the beginning you'll see capsules with different Spider-Man villains, such as Rhino, Vermin, and Scorpia. Rhino has already been confirmed as a villain for the game and as a Gamestop pre-order bonus mode where you play as Rhino

•Been in production for nearly two years

•The combat is straight up Batman. There's a melee button and a counter button. When you fill it up, you get to use special attacks like Batman's in Arkham City. Spider-Man also floats with punches like Batman, but GI claims he's far more acrobatic when he does it.

•Web zip can be used to get out of a sticky situation and hide. So apparently there is some sort of stealth.

•There's a typical experience system for levelling combos and you can find things called web techs that give you new abilities or upgrade them like being able to web people to the wall.

•Many of the story missions take place in doors in their own linear levels

•Some of the side content involves taking photos of locations, performing tricks for a videographer, and finding comic books.

•The citizens will say things to you based on things you've done in the story

•Seamus Kevin Fahey(Spartacus: Gods of the Arena and the newer Battlestar Galactica) helped with the story

•Web rush slows down time as a sort of Spider Sense. It can be used for moving through Manhattan, but it can also be used in combat.

Ehm... Spoilers? Now we know he survives the movie even though he's the villain.

You could potentially have a few things spoiled in relation to Parker and other people.


Exactly, seriously Beenox, be more careful with what you reveal.

So.... it's Spider-Man 2, but more influenced by the Arkham games? I guess that's fine...

Conners could be helping Parker out before he turns into the Lizard. He could be helping Parker find stuff out about his parents or something.

If GameInformer has an article
And It does not mention the 3DS version
Should I really Care?
