poor Spidey, he gets another bad game and he's going to get another bad movie in the future (though 3 wasn't that bad). What we need is a Marvel Zombies game.

Also, North does need to expand his repertoire beyond "annoyingly smug, generically handsome white guy". Closest he got to that was Vashyron in Resonance of Fate where he got smacked by the female lead a lot.
There is such a thing as type-casting in voice over. And like the game or not, Uncharted was pretty popular. You may hate the character, but Nolan North does the Nathan Drake type great. I personally think he's really talented, so it irks me that if he is getting type-cast. Steven Heck was a change of pace in Alpha Protocol, so the man can obviously do other types.

I hope it's not a case of game developers going "Hey, we've got another smuggish white guy! Get Nolan North again, he can do that!" "Yeah, but he also auditioned for this dark, brooding father figure. It was a great audition." "Nah, nah, get him to do the funny one. Come on, haven't you heard Nathan Drake?"

I liked the idea of different types of Spidermen and different game mechanics and was kinda hoping this game would be good. After watching this though I dont know.....

What would be cool though would be a Deadpool game but I dont see that happening because Deedpool is too cool for games!

Well see i had a bit of a problem with the review due to the fact that Yahtzee has absolutely no knowledge about comics whatsoever apparently.
Batman disregarding Spiderman because he's jumping through dimensions. Does anoyone know what Batman is doing right now?

Jumping through time because he was shot by a giant omega laser (i think thats the name Darkseid gave them)! Sigh...

Obviously you don't keep up with comics Yahtzee, and probably for the best. Because recently Batman (Bruce Wayne)has been traveling through time after supposedly dying. And now seems to be getting all the bat people together to form a giant club. If you have a strong urge to feel retarded after reading something, look it up.
Thank you for saying this so that I didn't have to.

You can ignore the retardation that goes on in DC and Marvel all you want. Nothing wrong with that. But saying "X character is so stupid compared to Y" is completely taking out of account all of the things you've chosen to forget. I love Batman, but he's been handled just as stupidly and poorly as any other comic character.

Also, claiming the Spiderman ideas and marvel ideas are about 20 times more for fetched than everything, i have one word for you:

Superman.

I think this can be summed up quite easily...It's not Spider man 2, now go cry in a corner.

"spiders are slow"

A few people have touched on this already, but we have wolf spiders around where I live and those suckers are fast. A wolf spider is around 2 cm in size and can run at 40cm/s, or 20 times its body size. For a 5'6" human, that would be 110 feet per second, or 75 mph. I'd guess that it varies greatly from spider to spider, though, and that "spider speed" is about as consistent as "mammal speed".

Loved the analogy at the end. Sucks that we've still yet to get a really good spider man game, hell sucks we've yet to get any good comic based game save for the obvious arkham asylum.

Spider Man noir bore too much resemblance to Batman AA but still I think it would've been a good game on its on or the futuristic spider man would've.

Also lol at the end with spiderman at the computer watching porn

At what point did it become mandatory for Spider-Man to have to punch a random guy more than once? This guy can bend screw drivers with a finger!
