So why is there hype for this game, specifically? From what I saw in the trailer it doesn't look any different from all the other Spidey games we've gotten. Like... even a little different. Is there info I didn't catch?

There's always hype for new Spiderman games until they reveal that they brought back moon-swinging for some fucking reason, and then the hype dies because moon-swinging is the single worst thing in every Spiderman game, and the reason why Spiderman 2 and Ultimate Spiderman will always be the two best games featuring the character.

Moon swinging?

He's talking about games where Spidey can swing from nothing

When the web does not anchor to anything. In Spiderman 2 and Ultimate Spiderman, the web anchored to buildings. allowing you to actually swing like spiderman, loop around flagpoles, cut really tight corners and breakneck speeds, etc.
Moon-swinging is just making the web attach "up", which is really fucking lazy and creates boring gameplay.

So like the shitty 90's cartoon?

Was spider-man 2 the one that got a gamecube port? I remember playing a spider-man game where I would press the triggers to swing at fucking killer speeds. I wonder how well it held up, I remember it being pretty fun. Maybe I could emulate.

Ultimate was on the GC for sure and it had that. Not sure if 2 was on it as well

>Shitty 90's cartoon
That shit works for a cartoon because you're not playing it. Also that cartoon was anything but shitty.

It was on PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube. There was also a PC version, but it was a completely different game, and was supposed to be REALLY bad. The Spiderman 2 movie game for consoles is probably the best Spiderman game.

Watch it again. It's pretty awful.

I watched it pretty recently bro, it still holds up as a great cartoon.

They should just start throwing all super hero games at Rocksteady since no one else is good at making them.
>>341272105
Yeah, it was on GC as well. The swinging definitely still holds up.
