Spider Man 2

<< < (5/5)

smerlus:
i just picked the game up... so far the gameplay is pretty good and the graphics are ok....swinging, and fighting have been improved....it actually takes a little skill to swing now so once you get going you can start doing fancy things like free falling swan dives off of a skyscraper, into a dual webshot swing, then a huge leap, some wall running and some more swinging...so swinging is more like you'd see in the movies or comic books

the story is provided by cut scenes that use the graphics engine rather than movie scenes or CGI

the free roaming part consists of swinging through the city either stopping current crimes, talking to people to get missions, skill challenges, or three groups of icons that you can collect that i think will unlock something (secret icons, skyscraper icons and hint icons)
defeating baddies gives you hero points which you use to buy more skills and up grade things like swinging speed.

the little side missions are pretty redundant...beat some muggers, beat some muggers and return an item, go into the store and beat some muggers...the only difference i've seen so far is the time i had to bring this broke bitch to a hospital and then the timed variations of the beat up muggers

voices are done by the actors/actresses except for the random civilians, these voices are aweful and pretty much stereo typical...i saved a store clerk and of course he's arabic (bad arabic impersonation) and saved this black lady and of course she had the black, southern drawl "thanks sugah, ya saved mah lahfe"

charge jump is a nice addition and so is "spider time" in spider time everything else is slow and you're able to do more advanced moves then you normally could...i haven't been able to pick up any cars but you can beat enemy cars into submission (no damage shows up on the car unfortunatly)

so far i give the game a 7.5, it might pick up as the story advances

-VZA-:
nice review... i agree with everything except for the score, but nice anyway.  i just wanted to suggest that you change the topic so that it says the game.  people might come here thinking this topic is about the movie instead.

i might rent this game tomorrow.

my guess is ill just be swinging from buildings and then get bored of it.
