Let's be fair, Spider-Man makes the Avengers look like pussies in comparison when it comes to what he's dealt with. Peter's taken down some large-scale villains before. Hell, he's tossed and thrown tanks, trucks, etc. if we're talking about strength-level here, but also, he's gone toe-to-toe with the Juggernaut, Rhino, Hulk, Carnage, etc. Ya know, characters that would take the whole Avengers to take down? Lol If anything, Spider-Man's underrated in terms of what he's capable of. He could easily one-shot most superheroes if he really wanted to, but he won't because, well, Pete's a nice guy. He's "friendly neighborhood, not angry back-alley" (Spider-Man 2000 reference).
Well True, Venom is very Dangerous and Green Goblin too ( Not That Skinny one, the One which looks, Like a True Monster) Rhino Himself is very Powerful, Electro Is Also, Otto was really a true mastermind villain... Carnage, name defines it...
@@xsupremeyx9923 the skinny one when he had the carnage symbiote killed flash thompson and forced pete in a situation where he HAD to use the venom suit which he hates
That’s a straight fact and this game still gets hate ? Which makes no sense because as you said HE FUCKING PUT DOWN A GIANT ROBOT SPIDER At the size of Godzilla
To be fair, Sam Riegal *IS* an anime actor. There are some roles of his that I really like but I see why you don't like him in this game. He doesn't fit at all here. I always like him as Donatello in Ninja Turtles though.
@@wolfshade5020 I'd say it's more that the voice itself just doesn't fit, I don't know exactly what he meant by "acting like an anime character" he did a pretty good job given the material he had to work with, and he didn't sound weird or anything, but his voice just doesn't suit Peter, both the real Spidey and the Amazing Spiderman's cool hipster douchebag "spiderman" from the movie the game is based on.
To be fair, the Arkham series combat makes 100000% more sense for Spider-Man and like 3 SPider-Man games had the combat style before Arkham Asylum even released. The only true thing TAS Game stole was the challenge modes. We only call it Arkham combat style cause it's the most popular game with that style, but Spider-Man did it all first.
Most games misunderstood the point of Arkhams combat it’s all about getting the Highest score possible through large unbroken combos and use of different attacks and gadgets
What I like about the LEGO games with Spider-Man is that his webs attach to the helicarrier. When you get on the helicarrier, Spider-Man can no longer swing (besides maybe one game)
@@Keynote_ tf do u mean it “means nothing” there’s a damn spaceship in the sky and if the webs aren’t sticking to the building then gee I wonder where they stick to. 🤨
Ok hold on, at 9:25 if you look on the wall, there is a piece of newspaper that shows a scene from TASM1 when he fights Lizard, but right next to it is another article about Spider-Man that shows a scene from Spider-Man 2... great job Beenox
I have to admit, one of my favorite features in the game is that as you take damage, your suit gets damaged too. Meaning you could end up swinging around the city wearing a shredded version of the costume. It's a nice little touch.
"...everyone trying to contain, eradicate, or cure this virus and every character makes the situation turn out as poorly as possible by being incapable of basic logic." Hm
I actually liked the idea of fighting actual Gene spliced science projects gone wrong and for that I say The Amazing Spider-Man is one of the semi-best indie horror games on the market.
I was mildly disappointed in how you didn't tear the swinging mechanics apart in this one. It's so shallow and requires absolutely no skill. Sure it LOOKS cool but it doesn't make you feel like you're accomplishing any complicated acrobatic feats like, say, Spider-Man 2. Comparing these swinging mechanics to a decade old game like Spidey 2 is so sad. If they could make every single skyscraper a surface to swing from back then; why does the newer Spidey swing from the air? It just screams laziness to me and I hope Insomniac's Spider-Man addresses that. To better illustrate my point look up Spider-Man 2 race speedruns. Notice how dynamically Spidey moves and how momentum influences everything. Notice how a good player is easily seperated from someone who doesn't know what the hell they're doing. In the newer games not only is the swinging bare-bones but in case you suck at that too they give you web rush and the game basically plays itself. Sorry if I sound elitist but that is something that's been bothering me in these Spider-Man games ever since I played Ultimate and 2. I don't mind if the swing mechanics aren't deep if it's a linear game like Shattered Dimensions but in an open world spidey game it's inexcusable.
+Grindcore Sathanas Please that's the least of this games problems, story is constantly up and down like a rollercoaster so there's no clear idea of wtf is even going on. Combat is repetitive and tedious af not to mention its so un-involved and automated it hardly feels like you're *playing* the game, same goes for the wall acrobatics system (can't remember what its called, haven't played the game since 2013). The open world is bland and dead with nothing to do other than a few sidequests and collecting a ridiculously large amount of comic book pages. To be fair there's probably many more issues but this is me just recalling off the top of my head without even watching the video, the only merit this game has is that its not the amazing spider man 2 game.
+Santiago Faria *Hell yes!* As soon as Spider-Man started swinging the first thing I noticed was whether he swings thanks to God or buildings and lo and behold, it was buildings! Thank you Insomniac! Combat looked loads better than the Amazing games. People are quick to mention that it resembles the Arkham style as if that's a bad thing. I never expected them to reinvent the wheel when it comes to combat. It definitely doesn't look like a carbon copy as in the Amazing games. For one thing, there's a lot environmental interaction. Besides, don't forget that Spider-Man 2 did the whole "dodge, attack, dodge, attack" gameplay thing first. Batman fleshed it out and made it look a lot better. The abundance of QTEs did make me raise an eyebrow but I understand that it's E3 and they need a good spectacle to please the casual observer. I just hope they won't get too crazy with them in the final product. Despite all this, I still remain cautiously optimistic about the game. It's way too early to get excited. Unrealistic expectations can really take away from a solid game.
I realized why I enjoy your videos besides the context, when I was a kid I absolutely adored the ultimate Spiderman video game, your voice reminds me of the voice actors, or maybe it just fits in my head. Either way, cudos.
@@stijnkulche5932 It really wasn't THAT bad. Although, I think the whole "Zombie-Like Plague Virus" thing was REALLY out of place in a Spider-Man game. Like, imagine some 10 year old playing this in 2012 because he liked the movie and his mom bought it for him for his birthday. Instant nightmare fuel. (totally not talking about personal experience)
I totally forgot about the giant battles in ASM. That's one thing i forgot to miss in ASM2. No but really. I'm not being sarcastic. Those were awesome:D
Umm.. it WAS "the" clone Peter dumped in the chimney, wasn't it? As in Ben Reilly. Ben wasn't dead and climbed out, and went on to live as Ben Reilly, until returning when he got the news of aunt May's bad condition.
But then there was Kaine Parker, Spidercide, the 5 year decayed clone skeleton that was in the smokestack that wasn't Ben or Peter somehow, and the short clones dressed as Jackal. I got a little confused trying to figure out what the hell was happening when I wrote that joke.
I actually really like this game and I like the take on the character in this universe in fact I consider the true amazing Spider-Man 2 since it had a better story and was more fun. Wish Andrew voice Peter tho or at least josh Keaton. Plenty of nostalgia with this game as much as shattered dimensions and edge of time.
the “city on fire” plot is just a super interesting idea to me. Infected by a virus while Spider-Man works around the clock to cure it while it slowly escalated and gets worse and worse
I actually liked this game. I liked the idea of Spideys enemies being like him. Cross genetic beings or something. The graphics were amazing, the swinging animations great, the open world was ok. I don't know, I have a sweet spot for this one. And no, this game wasn't my childhood.

For the simple fact that you included the names of the songs you use without me even noticing until i heard one that i liked and then went back and saw that you wrote the name when it began good sir i will leave a like on this video
The only thing that really bothers me about this Spider-man is how his web cartridges are the size of a pen lid but he can still cover someone up in web and never run out
This game is so friggen weird and bizzare that it's absolutely entertaining, I love the desperate attempts at using modern technology and memes, the inconsistent personalities, the ways it mimicks Arkham, and over the top shit you fight that dosen't fit the original movie at all, aswell as the insane ways it changes the story completely
i played spiderman 1, 2 and 3 (ps2) all those years ago. yet your reviews are so well made i can accompany the entire video. and im not bored! amazing!
4:22 I was flat out insulted by that look of the rhino he didn't have machine guns or missiles charged like a rhino HENCE THE TERM "RHINO" I mean in the ultimate Spider-Man game it was a robotic rhino but it looked like a rhino and didn't have machine guns or missiles
The PS4 Spider-Man game copied so much from this gem, and gets praised for it all; while this one was tossed in the bin by the collective gaming community.
I literally binge watch your spiderman retrospectives all the time... You are literally the reason I own web of shadows. So, thank you for doing this! I'm sure doing all those videos took forever to record, edit, and finally put all together.
Why does everybody hate on The Amazing Spider-Man video games? I have played them and the Insomniac Spider-Man games and they don't really feel much different as far as game feel goes. But I will tell you that all four of the games I played were freaking phenomenal, so I don't know why anybody is complaining about any of them.
I never cared about the gameplay when I was a kid I just wanted a Spider-Man game where his suit can get torn 😂

For the simple fact that you included the names of the songs you use without me even noticing until i heard one that i liked and then went back and saw that you wrote the name when it began good sir i will leave a like on this video
The only thing that really bothers me about this Spider-man is how his web cartridges are the size of a pen lid but he can still cover someone up in web and never run out
I'm 15 and I know exactly who Ozzy Osbourne is
bloodpondstudios I'm 13 and I do too
OP Master no shit so do i
i'm 17 who the fu*k is that?!
Well now you're 17
bloodpondstudios. Biscuit given 😒
4:40 when I first saw this I had no idea what he was referring to but I came back today to watch this video and I got the reference from the office
22:21 They did that knowing spider-man is a thing. This city is fucked.
Personally think this game is underrated
Also find it really funny how the TASM 2 movie completely ruins the plot of this game lmao
Oh no simibola got onto the streets of NYC better launch the reaper armada
This game is so friggen weird and bizzare that it's absolutely entertaining, I love the desperate attempts at using modern technology and memes, the inconsistent personalities, the ways it mimicks Arkham, and over the top shit you fight that dosen't fit the original movie at all, aswell as the insane ways it changes the story completely
"OMG GOD IS THAT HIM? BRUCE CAMPBELL!?!? AHHH THIS GAME IS PERFECT!!!!!" I died 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
i played spiderman 1, 2 and 3 (ps2) all those years ago. yet your reviews are so well made i can accompany the entire video. and im not bored! amazing!
4:22 I was flat out insulted by that look of the rhino he didn't have machine guns or missiles charged like a rhino HENCE THE TERM "RHINO" I mean in the ultimate Spider-Man game it was a robotic rhino but it looked like a rhino and didn't have machine guns or missiles
GM:Talks about a virus and how humanity handles it.
2020: Am I a joke to you😐
NYC looks about the same right now
11:26 R.I.P. Stan Lee.
I really loved your Spider-Man retrospective videos. Whatched them all and subscribed
23:21 Buy a Truck! Do it!!!
Someone wanted an early lunch.
Hint: It was the guy who made the fake ads
One of the most underrated TH-cam channels, you deserve more.
17:22 Damnit, it's Spider Mode from Spiderman 3 GBA all over again!
Slyde might actually be fun to play in a video game.
The PS4 Spider-Man game copied so much from this gem, and gets praised for it all; while this one was tossed in the bin by the collective gaming community.
I literally binge watch your spiderman retrospectives all the time... You are literally the reason I own web of shadows.
So, thank you for doing this! I'm sure doing all those videos took forever to record, edit, and finally put all together.
Lol, remember when "ebola" was the standard for a pandemic?
Goosebumps still run down my spine whenever I see the scene of Spidey posing with Cap's shield.
"citywide plague"
That aged well
Why does everybody hate on The Amazing Spider-Man video games?
I have played them and the Insomniac Spider-Man games and they don't really feel much different as far as game feel goes.
But I will tell you that all four of the games I played were freaking phenomenal, so I don't know why anybody is complaining about any of them.
8:20 his snap I'm dead!!!😂😂😂
"Which is odd because this version of Spider-Man isn't even 18 yet."
please dont give me ultimate comic flashbacks
