Trailer (360, PS3 version)

http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=17114&type=wmv&pl=game

Looks good!!

Available on pratically every console,

I think Spiderman 2 was considered by many to be the best movie tie-in game, aswell as the best superhero game;
In theory Spiderman 3 should build on this and be even better!

[Daft]

I really hope this is good! I'll get it for my 360!

The city looks really bland...They better sort that out!

I hope you can have a co-op type play like in Crackdown with one player trying to cause trouble, being Venom, and another player, Spiderman, trying to stop him!!! That would rule!!!

[AshMat]

I'll probably pick it up for 360, SM2 was a great game.

[Owen]

If it plays like SM2 it will be fantastic (and it looks like it does).

Lets hope it looks a bit better come release. It's no-where near terrible, just a little dissapointing, could do with an extra polish, thats all.

[Dan Dare]

oooooooooooohhhh! so THAT'S what Spiderman 2 was supposed to be!

awesome!

GameSpot interview

New combat system sounds good - Spiderman 2's wasn't particularly amazing.

According to the interview it's coming out on Wii, PS3, PS2, Xbox 360, PC, DS, PSP and GBA.

I'm curious as to how all the different versions are similar/different to each other.

[Daft]

Wasn't there supposed to be a really big/unique Spiderman game coming out for Wii?

I really hope this has some for of Co-op! That would rock!

[Jamba]

Anyone else not likeing the fact that spiderman is animated as if he were a rag doll? Also I swear they have made his feet bigger cos they look noticeably flappy.

Looks like they've incorporated a nice list of theatrical looking moves but a lot of that was in game engine cut sequences methink. Wish they would get rid of all the surface jiggle too, games running on the 360 shouldnt be having that kind of problem anymore.

Sounds great!!

The 'cinteractive' moments sound cool!!
I guess the mid-air car dodging in the trailer is an example of such a moment?!

It's wierd that the game looks better in these latest IGN pictures than it does in the official trailer and even IGN said how great the game looks in HD.
I guess the trailer is perhaps not showing Spiderman 3 as well as it could?!!

[Cube]

I take it the graphics are the same in all versions, just with HD in PS3/360 version.

I mean, those 360 shots don't look particually good.

[Ramar]

I played and completed both Spider-man and Spider-man 2 on GCN, the latter being the better one. I can not wait for this, might have to get it on 360 because it willl look stunning.

IGN Interview

http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/766/766664p1.html

IGN: How will PS3 use the Sixaxis?

Archer: We do something with the Sixaxis, but we can't talk about it yet. It's a really cool feature.

IGN: What about for the Wii?

Archer: The Wii controller, we literally use it to swing. Both hands. You're using it to swing and do web attacks and hand-to-hand combat and things like that. It seems really cool.

IGN: What kind of unlockables can we expect?

We're definitely going to have stuff. I can't talk about any details. Just as always, we have some cool stuff to play with when the game's done. Expect some really cool stuff and something that you're not expecting.

[rokhed00]

PS3 to get exclusive collectors edition.

PS2 Version, right?

[Caris]

I take it the graphics are the same in all versions, just with HD in PS3/360 version.

why do you bash the 360's graphics all the time?

[Cube]

why do you bash the 360's graphics all the time?


I bash the graphics of games that look like they haven't attempted to use the 360's power...I've never bashed the 360's graphics in a general sense.

[James McGeachie]

Well this does look like it's using the 360's power. You can't have Lost Planet/Gears of War level of visuals in a game with a wide expansive city, huge draw distance and very large numbers of high polygon objects on screen at a time. It's like how the GTA games look abysmal last gen in comparison to other high end games, it's the sacrafice made to be able to render a huge environment constantly streaming with no loading times outside.

Crackdown looks better, and it's probably got a bigger city and longer draw distance.

[Domstercool]

Best movie tie in? That's still Goldeneye in my eyes! :D

I haven't played a Spiderman game since Spiderman: The Movie, which was alright I guess.

[Caris]

I bash the graphics of games that look like they haven't attempted to use the 360's power...I've never bashed the 360's graphics in a general sense.

I remember you saying that the 360's graphics were not near realistic, just a high polygon count. :heh:

[Cube]

I remember you saying that the 360's graphics were not near realistic, just a high polygon count. :heh:

Referring to games that boast realistic graphics, but shove specular, gloss and bloom effects all over the place. No console in particular. (In fact, I've applauded the 360/PC for Alan Wake before).

Anyway...It's just something about Spider-Man 3's graphics that doesn't look...right.

more wii pics at nom

[McPhee]

Looks ok, would rather have had Ultimate Spiderman 2 though. Animated games look so much nicer than ones that are trying to be real

On a side note - is Marvel Ultimate Alliance any good? Im tempted to pick it up after the whole Civil War thing brought me back into comic book mode

[pedrocasilva]
