The Amazing Spider-Man 2 doesn't just fall short of being a good next-gen title, it's feels sub-par when compared against the best open-world games of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 era. Also some have a surprise round that really doesn't affect if you pass or fail the stage, but only extra XP. For this achievement you only need to finish 5 of the 15 races, but you'll have to complete all 15 for one of the suits for " Fashionista".

The Xbox One game has clear disadvantages against the PlayStation 4 release that we'll explore in a moment, but they're best described as annoyances as opposed to anything genuinely game-breaking. On top of the crushed colour range, it's the tearing that's the key factor of differentiation between the Xbox One and PS4 versions of the game. Spider-Man infiltrates Fisk's hideout, where he defeats him and tries to hack into his computer for incriminating evidence. He did feel as though the game was a dated experience, and disliked the controls and mission variety.What we're looking at is a distinctly last-gen effort, spruced up with 1080p imagery and some higher-precision post-processing effects, but little else.

On Metacritic, the iOS version of the game has a weighted aggregate rating of 58/100 based on 14 reviews, [7] the PlayStation 3 version of the game has 57/100 based on 4 reviews, [9] and the PlayStation 4 version of the game has 49/100 based on 44 reviews. I’ve been wanting a solid Spider-Man game but I don’t have a ps4 I have an Xbox one so I wanted to get this but almost everywhere it’s like 100 dollars!Beenox originally planned to develop the 3DS version of the game, but dropped due to unknown reasons and was given to High Voltage Software instead. Spider-Man tries to reason with Electro, who blames Spider-Man for abandoning him, but is forced to fight him, resulting in the latter's death. If you want to see outside the five-to-six block radius or drop a beacon, you’ll have to pause and access Spidey’s phone menu as you’d do in every other version. Spider-Man realises he's not the only one pursuing down Manhattan's criminals in a novel plot set alongside the events of the second film. The third-person 3D action finds gamers using a mix of acrobatic combat maneuvers and web-shooting attacks, and players can once again explore an expansive open-world version of Manhattan, either on foot or by swinging through the skyline.

Side quests involve new crimes like arson and hostage situations, new web attacks let Spider-Man freeze and explode items, and players can unlock new outfits that have unique upgradeable attributes. Spider-Man defeats Harry, who is mortally impaled by his own glider while trying to attack the hero from behind. At this point, the game flips the framebuffer as soon as the next image is ready, while the console scans out to the display, causing screen-tear. The Xbox One version was released alongside the other platforms digitally while the release of physical copies was delayed by two weeks. The combat lead-up to a boss battle is actually pretty short – more often than not, you have to clear a single (albeit large) room of enemies before progressing to the supervillan.

There aren't nearly as many collectables as the first Amazing Spider-Man game, and even then you don't necessarily have to collect them all. Fisk intends to take over Oscorp however, albeit patiently, waiting for Harry to slowly die from the disease that killed his father, Norman Osborn. Motion capture performances were provided by Aaron Schoenke of Bat in the Sun Productions, as well as Sean T.
