I played until I killed a boss, and it dropped more stuff than I could carry, and I didn't have enough scrolls to identify it. I realized then that my tiny inventory that can't carry anything and maybe nets 1-2 scrolls if lucky, that I would be going back and forth to town constantly getting scrolls. I don't know about you... but I don't want to constantly go back and forth to towns to identify something that usually sucks. Not sure why people like constantly selling gear, but okay...
If I'm missing something let me know, but otherwise I think this is pretty much a sell grind to identify worthless gear.
Wow, this person Petit has never been right about a review. Also, putting spoilers in a review is worse than murder. Why is this person still employed?
Who in their right mind would say that this combat is good?? This isn't the worst, but it isn't good by any means! The gameplay is horrible, clunky, laggy, and boring. Why would they say this crap? It's completely inaccurate! I just don't understand how anyone could like this and find it addicting. You have to stand there and get hit in order to attack, it's pathetic. Why do I have to stop to swing? Pretty sure I can move while swinging, yeah, I have watched enough UFC to know that you can be pretty agile...
I can't believe that WoW is 10 years old and they still can't make a game that even comes close to the combat system. They keep making these terrible clumsy combat systems... there is a reason that final fantasy didn't change much in most of their games because it worked really well. Get a clue you retarded developers, try making games fun to play instead of lame!
I understand the game is free, but so is getting into a car accident. I guess I would prefer that...
In co op do you share currency and upgrades or do you just fight for currency and nodes to get upgrades? I mean these are important things to note... why is no one saying these things...
So, I'm guessing it will just be repeat the same random street crimes and rescue people 200 times before you get to move on with the story... the most fun you can have in a Spider-Man game is just web slinging. Is that worth 60$? Well... maybe.
@flyingfireball eah I bet all those hardcore players are real happy with lag spike deaths and random disconnects. It's a wonder they haven't beat it yet. haha
This is one big lie of a review, flexible? Customizable? How do you figure... it's all predetermined... the only customization is which rune you choose. All the characters look the same. You can only choose the name! You only get to use 6 abilties at one time... extremely boring. The only good thing about that is trying different combinations, but really it will just wind up being the same 6 throughout the game and before a boss not choose aoe... if people even bother to switch those out. Customizable? You gear for one stat!
Tight controls? It's click to move, half the time oversized enemies are in the way to you wind up firing off spells... this control scheme is over a decade old. Desperately need an update.
My favorite part of this review is "This may sound dull..." may? It IS dull. For about 30 20+ levels of dull depending on which character you choose, the skill are boring until you have all 6 open. Then it really depends on runes for which one you're going to use.
The game has such a cliche'd 12 year old writer style driven by horrible actors, you'd think the big greedy publishing giant Activision would have spent a little more money on writers and actors. Nah. They like to ruin games.
This review is ridiculous, I think Activision wrote it for Gamespot.
I hope this is a lesson to those who are planning future online only single player games... because this is the kind of garbage we'll have to put up with day in and day out.
It's so nice to not be able to play a game I paid for... been plagued with disconnects, 3007, 3005, disconnecting when going out of caves and cellars... it's just not surprising when you have an ONLINE single player campaign. I just don't understand how they can fail at this when they have been running WoW for almost 8 years... you'd think they'd have the online part of this down. Fun game, but I'd like to just be able to play it more than I'm waiting for it. Hopefully they get this fixed... or start handing out refunds.
