There's an underlying feel of mild embarrassment from the actors that they're doing a game, and I felt sure they'd rather be doing an insurance commercial.įor better or for worse, the game has an unusual structure. Voice acting, still something of a bane of this generation of action games, is passable but not spectacular. I'm sure I'm missing a great opportunity to give you an amusing nickname.
With an unusual semi-animated comic-book style, they are most reminiscent of the opening credits to Grange Hill, the original series of all things, in the way the story spills over into adjacent panels in an amusing Brechtian estrangement. Ultimate Spider-Man has oodles of style though, and it seeps out of its greasy teenage pores most during the cut-scenes. You may like it, but this take on the Spider-Man mythos and story does nothing for me. These days, these kind of things are known as 're-imaginings'. Tragically, she works not as a photojournalist, but as a web developer. Mary Jane, looking somewhat Kirsten, is fully aware of Peter Parker's arachnoid proclivities. The story starts with a nerdy and deformed angst-ridden teen Peter Parker suffering an identity crisis and struggling to come to terms with who and what he is. Unlike Spider-Man 2, the game doesn't attempt to follow any cinematic storyline, and is instead based on the Ultimate Spider-Man comic books.
His dynamic and flexible controls demand greater challenge, not less. As a result you will race through Venom's levels and never feel challenged, which is a great shame. As you suck in bystanders and foes, your health is continually recharged, and if you do this all the time, you never have to fight anyone. However, while Venom is a Big Whoop of fun to control, he's far too easy to play with.
He flits and flounces around the city, full of the joys of spring, and generally feels like a modern-day Bomb Jack. On the plus side, you do get to play as Venom, and his control system rocksaws proper gaming hide. This year's Strictly Dance Fever promises a new edge. You will get used to it, but you will never fully come to terms with the fact that it used to be so much better. Whatever a spider can? Only if it's a curiously lazy and stupid spider. Now you can only shoot one web at a time (why?) and you have to double-jump and zip your way around the city in what feels like an alarmingly limited and retrograde way. Their fault.Īs the game opens, you are immediately confronted and struck by a control system that has taken a massive step back since the previous game.
PC users may now rest happily, having punished the developers for their infraction last time when they lost a big wodge of cash. Grrr.Īnd this time? Hurrah, the PC version is a port of the console version. The PC users were rogered royally on the other hand, by a game that was a patronising kiddies' outing, and was no fun whatsoever, and yet the box art made no hint to the poor unsuspecting PC gamers of the awfulness within. But is 'whatever a spider can' all that we want from a Spider-Man game? And a few things a spider can't, like upside-down mouth action with Kirsten Dunst and spewing from his wrists.
