Wow... You finished it yet Lofty? Worst ending to a game ever! Lol.

Lofty Who · May 5, 2014

Not yet mate, not been on the XB1 today. I'm sure I'm right at the end so hopefully finish it next time I'm on, sounds like I'm in for a treat lol

I'm really enjoying myself with this game.

My wife couldn't stand seeing me drooling over the Alien Costume Suit anymore so she got me the points (you know what I mean).

Looks like a next gen update of the last game and the last game was a brilliant "Spider-Man" game.

Huge open-world with plenty going on in it.

Fluid combat with lots of upgrades.

Cleverly done fan service with Costumes we want to wear as well as the "Comic Shop" that has comics you can read, collectables you can view and an old school Arcade Machine that actually let's you play a "horde mode" against waves of enemies of increasing
difficulty.

The Hero / Menace is a nice touch. You soon realise you can't do "EVERYTHING" but the things you do are certainly enough to keep you on the Hero side of things.

They've added "conversation buttons" which seem completely superfluous as what you say has no impact on the outcome of your conversation (so far at least) and sometimes Spider-Man's animations have a bit of clipping when he gets to the top of a building
but this does little to ruin the immersion of playing as the Amazing Spider-Man and that's what a Spider-Man game is for.

Huge game. If you on in looking for faults I'm sure you'll be able to find some.

If you go in looking for fun so far there's truckloads to be had.

Looks like it will be in the shops this month.

Anybody know if when you finish the game if your suits carry over to a new game on a harder difficulty?

MetalGearFloppy · May 5, 2014

No, they don't... it's a new game/save.... Sadly nothing carries over.

Azrael008uk · May 6, 2014

"Super Hero" difficulty is gonna be fun then.

Do lower difficulty achievements stack at least?

MetalGearFloppy · May 6, 2014

Yes mate, they stack. It's fairly easy on Superhero tbh.

The only tricky stuff being the Fire Rescues, the timer is very short indeed.

I ended up knocking the difficulty down once I'd finished to do them.

Lofty Who · May 6, 2014

I read somewhere there's some DLC planned for this? anyone heard anything?

I've searched but can't see anything.

MetalGearFloppy · May 6, 2014

The only DLC I know is the Pre-Order DLC, which is just new suits....

Thanks for the info on Difficulty Stacking.

That's handy to know.

My bet is it will still be full price when it's released on disc, unless the 360, PS3, PS4 versions are down in price by then.

As always though, just search the "web" no doubt be some deals out there

... or pretend the game doesn't exist and just wait for Arkham Knight...

You know it brings out your eyes too, and those burns

lol

As for this game, you have to be kidding on that car chase bit right? Same car, bad guys and woman over and over? In this day and age you would of expected a bit of change or randomness to it. Is the difficulty the same on each chase? The route too?

The window bit I can understand if that's just a bug or control flaw but really, even if this was a budget game you would want a bit more than that.

Mark Sherwood

Oh no, I aint paying a full £50 smackeroonies for it. Half the price or maybe £30 and I will bag it. I am curious to see if the disc version if less the cost of a full retail price due to the game being out already and disc release being delayed.
