Fuckin shit ass UK won't be showing this film til the 15th, bastards I fuckin hate how we get this major delay all the time when it comes to movies.
I wanna see this so badly, the first one was kinda average, nothing special but this time they don't have to deal with the creation, the foundation for the characters is layed now they can concentrate on the story.
Bring it on!

i think the post already implies that the gift was directed by sam raimi.
anyhow, i just got back from best buy and i picked up the spider-man 2 game.
i'm not really sure if i wanna play it yet. i dont wanna spoil the plot of the movie by playing through the game first. i think i'll just play the tutorial and fuck around in the city and then start play the actual 'movie plot' missions tomorrow after i see the movie.
him, as in sam raimi....you also have him to thank...

okayy.... whatever that means.Anonymous Bastard wrote: You saw the first movie. The plot won't be spoiled.
anyway, the game's pretty good so far. swinging around the city is lots of fun. takes a bit of getting used to though. you cant just shoot your web into the sky and hang from the air. you actually need to aim your web at a building or something.
bruce campbell is hilarious as ever. he doesn't just narrate the tutorial this time. he also does the in game hints. there's like over 200 hint icon thingies to find throughout the city so you'll probably be hearing from bruce a lot more than you did in the first game.
love the rag doll physics.
I just bought Spiderman 2 the game for PS2. I played the first 5 chapters or so just fucking around. The graphics are not as great as I had expected, low detail pedestrians and car quality, and there is a little pop-up when swinging through the city. That is about it for negatives though, the rest of the game kicks ass. I must have spent an hour just swinging around the city and doing cool tricks and shit in the air.
The controls are much improved and web swinging is much better. The combat system owns also. Fucking huge ass juggling combos after you float someone in the air. And you are pretty much just pressing two buttons for punch and kick, but it looks awesome to watch.
Also, if you picked up the game, play at least through the first 4 chapters or so, it will not ruin the plot of the second movie, the game has lots of side missions and shit to do and even the main missions are just busy work to start out to help you learn what the hell you are doing.
The sound effects and music are not bad either. Overall, the game does have that GTA feel and the city is probably slightly larger than Liberty City in GTA3. You can choose when you want to do normal main missions or you can just swing around the city all day. Lots of hidden secrets and bonus shit and tons of side missions. It looks to have high replay value.
Just from the hour and a half or so I have played it, it looks to be a great game. If someone has it for XBOX let me know if you noticed the same low graphical quality (I expect it to be slightly cleaner and clearer, but as for the pedestrians and car models, I would think they would be the same), but let me know.

yeah i got the xbox version. graphics arent the greatest ever but they do the job. i guess they had to lower the quality so that there's no loading time when you're swinging around the city.
the xbox version probably looks the best out of all three platforms though.
i wish i knew my way around new york. i wanna go visit ground zero and get to the statue of liberty!
i'm gonna find ground zero now.

<a href='http://xbox.ign.com/articles/527/527076p1.html' target='_blank'>http://xbox.ign.com/articles/527/527076p1.html</a>The Xbox version benefits better than the PS2 version. You can speed through the game with no visual problems. It's not perfect, but on the Xbox, the game sports reflective windows up the wazoo, while on the PS2, it's a slightly different story.
w00t. i got the xbox version.
and i'll be seeing the movie tomorrow at 10am.
