Today as part of the D23 event, Disney spent an hour showing off their upcoming games in the Marvel, Disney, and Star Wars camps, revealing new footage for Star Wars: Battlefront II, a (possible) release window and new world for Kingdom Hearts III and several Marvel related games, including an announcement of a new game. While now new gameplay…
Spider-Man: Homecoming’s success has caused a lot of people, including yours truly, to look back on one of the most beloved video games starring the web-slinger, Spider-Man 2. One such group to wax nostalgic about the game is Smosh Games, who in their recent entry in the Honest Game Trailers series, tackles the fan-favorite 2004 urban Tarzan simulator. One correction…
The Vulture is one of Spider-Man’s oldest foes, and that’s not because traditionally the character is portrayed as an elderly man, having made his high-flying debut in 1963’s The Amazing Spider-Man #2. There has been a steady release of Spider-Man films since 2002, yet this weekend’s Spider-Man: Homecoming will mark the first time the character…
I’ve reviewed a few Spider-Man movie tie-in video games for this site over the years, some even like The Amazing Spider-Man 2 on both the PS4 and 3DS when they were just released in 2014, and over the past two weeks I’ve been posting reviews for the ones that I had yet to cover in any capacity.…
Before Spider-Man joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the only super powered team-up in a Spider-Man film was Peter and Harry teaming up to defeat Sandman and Venom in the conclusion of Spider-Man 3. In his MCU debut, Spider-Man shared the screen with nearly every hero in Captain America: Civil War and now as part of his first ever…
Superman may hold the Guinness Book of World Records for longest running video game protagonist, but I would wager that Spider-Man could hold a record for protagonist that has starred in a video game across the most platforms. From the Atari 2600 to Sega’s 32X, the NES to the a Japan only Super Famicom title,…
In 2011, Beenox delivered the first ever Spider-Man game to the 3DS with the release of Spider-Man: Edge of Time. Edge of Time was a respectable port to Nintendo’s underpowered handheld (in comparison to the main SKU of the game on PS3 and Xbox 360) that suffered from what a lot of 3-D games did on the PSP. The…
The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) and 2011’s Spider-Man: Edge of Time on the Nintendo DS, despite being unique experiences from their console counterparts, have a lot in common. Both failed to live up to the quality of their previous outings, Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, though in the case of the DS game the development from Dimensions to Edge of Time had a developer change with Newfoundland based Other…
The Spider-Man games on the DS had a bit of a yo-yo thing happening starting out: Spider-Man 2 was not really that great, but Ultimate Spider-Man was terrific; Spider-Man: Battle for New York was a poor man’s attempt at trying to duplicate the quality of Ultimate Spider-Man but Spider-Man 3 returned things to form with a unique take on the open-world genre in two-dimensions and…
Canada, the country in which I call home, is celebrating a milestone birthday today. July 1st, 2017 marks the 150th birthday of the day that the country known as Canada came into existence. Video game fans owe a lot to the country of Canada, for without it and the talented people who live in it,…
