Thread: Spider-man: Shattered Dimensions

Started Spider-man: Shattered Dimensions last night. Not bad so far, but its no Batman: Arkham Asylum.

Graphics look great, great Voice work, funny quips all over the place, and the controls are good.

Web aiming is a bit off sometimes, but at least you can't die over a open crevasse (due to having a web jump escape which flings you back up into the 'normal' ground level).

I finished the first level (Kraven) in an hour. You can buy your extra abilities (fighting or character) using your points (like in Dante, etc.) and by finding the spider tokens in a map (there are over 40 in that first level). You get around 10 challenges per level which give you bonus points from 500 (hit 5 guys on a web) to 5000 (find 8 hidden spiders).

The story is 'meh' so far (and only there to explain the 4 Spideys being playable) as you are chasing after a shattered museum relic where various pieces will be held by Spideys foes.

There seems to be 16 levels on the level selector with 4 per Spidey. Speaking of the Spideys, you get to play as Amazing, Ultimate (black suit), 2099, and Noir (something I'd never heard of until this game).

I'm a comic-book nut but i've rarely bought comic-book character games.
This will probably no different.
Heard good things about Batman:Arkham Asylum...might grab the new one.
