Even Spider-Man has a studio of his own, Beenox, after the good results of the public and critics gathered last year by Spider-Man: Dimensions . Certainly not a masterpiece, but a good game that could raise the profile of the most famous Marvel hero after years of futile recycling in key Grand Theft Auto . Just by Spider-Man Dimensions is allocated the U.S. team, while retaining much of the original structure but focusing more on aspects of film.

This time control is "only" two versions of Spidey, against four of his predecessor, Peter David signed a tale that combines time travel, super-villains and a good dose of comic absurdity. In summary, the future of Spider-Man is going to take a turn for the worse (read: death) and we must prevent this to happen by stopping those who want to change it at will, or the upper echelons of megacorporations on duty, the Alchemax. Alternately moving version "amazing" and "2099" of the spider, we have to stop the machinations of that Dr. Sloan, lowering his henchmen and machines that create the paradoxes of time between the two. Nothing particularly original on paper, though the dialogues are very good and some cutscenes are really well choreographed, since the introduction. Instead of the classic "filmatone" (which arrives on time after a few minutes) you play a semi-interactive section titles and logos appearing in the background. The cutting of this Hollywood production is thus clear from the beginning and definitely packs a more linear game, but even more spectacular in the early stages directly related to the story. For example, there are frequent cases where, while fighting, appears in the lower right is a window where we observe what is happening in reality, with the two Spider-Man who exchange jokes with a high degree of irony (and of course in English, as all the dubbing).

The theorem God of War on fighting games is reapplied to the title of the house with Activision levels divided into small arenas, based on points earned upgrades and special moves that shake the screen. Without even touching from a distance the illustrious founder, Spider-Man: Edge of Time manages to entertain in a discreet way with a good variety of moves (many inherited from the previous chapter) and enemies fairly tough standards already in trouble. To make the battles less amusing contribute some minor flaws, like a camera tends to lose sight of our character and a strong aliasing of the image that "kneads" the scene during the most chaotic. However, if you enjoyed the fights Spider-Man: Dimensions in the "amazing" you should be comfortable even in below. Output from the old back also the challenges, namely dynamic objectives that unlock as you progress the game and that, if completed, giving access to bonus content (such as uniforms extra). Pausing can see which are active at any given time and what we must do to overcome them: always a good incentive for the duration of the game maniacs of trophies and achievements.
