Personally I was not that exicted for this game but now..from what i have seen..it looks awesome.Gameinformer got there hands on the new game and here are the details:



•One screenshot features Dr. Connors helping Spider-Man out
•Random crimes ( bank heists, muggings, and car chases) are spread throughout the city. I didn’t see anything about ‘MY BALLOON’ though
•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. That said, it’s the same exact Spider-Man story we’ve been told a million times before, so it’s not like the movie’s not already spoiled for any Spider-Man fans.
•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.

Sounds great! Can't wait to get this game! I might play the game and get spoiled lol. I'll go to the theatres and stand up yelling "I AM FROM THE FUTURE! I KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO DR. CONNORS!"

@thetinman
Yeah it's kind of confirmed now because that one scene in the new trailer where Connors is in the prison cell. After he got cured, he probably went there to pay for his murders and crime as the Lizard.

And come on guys! Just give this new origin a chance! It's not even changing the origin if you think about it. All that's diffrent is Peter's new gentic code before he gets bit. It makes sense! Peter has a diffrent gentic code then normal humans. So when he gets bit, the spider's DNA mixes with the genetic code and unlocks Peter's inner self. Im not saying that Peter would have been Spider-Man all along, but the spider's DNA was absorbed by the serum thus giving him power.

Oh thank God you, thetinman, Ashes2Phoenix, and BlackWarrior agree with me on the origin! This will be a good origin, this will be a great game, this will be a great movie!

As would the Riddick games, The Bourne Conspiracy, Captain America: Super Soldier… Not all movie tie-ins are bad.

What would be great is if this Spider Man game had the gameplay view of INFAMOUS. When the camera is far behind the player it makes games come across as silly hack and slashers, though when it is closer it makes movement for fluid. This Spiderman will probably be more like Prototype games, which is not bad, just nothing new.

Also change the article sub header, this will be nothing like Arkham City, it will be a repetitive hack and slash game, and add some pictures.

They are not putting in saving the childs balloon?!! This is an outrage, I spent many an hour not stopping murders, rapes and robberies all so that little runt would stop screaming about his f'ing balloon.

For the love of god it's SPIDER-MAN, not Spider-man Spiderman or Spider Man.
