Spider-Man Web of Shadows (Review)

Oct 22, 2008

In the last “real” Spider-Man game, Spider-Man 3 (we’re ignoring Friend or Foe), developer Treyarch somehow managed to turn swinging freely through New York and beating up thugs into a dull chore. Spidey has a lot to prove this time around, but Web of Shadows successfully brings the wall-crawler back to his glory days… mostly. ...

TalkRadar 21 – riddles, rudeness and reviews (Feature)

Oct 3, 2008

This is officially the longest TalkRadar to date – but what a value! You’ll hear us attempt to solve the worst puzzles in history (most are from PC adventure games), talk up gaming flatulence, even trade horror stories involving bodily functions and a certain bathroom apparatus.

If you’re not one for potty humor, you should listen anyway because there’s lots of talk about the next Call of Duty (World at War), Spider-Man (Web of Shadows) and Bond shooter (the very GoldenEye-esque Quantum of Solace). ...

Spider-Man: Web of Shadows Producer Interview (Video) (News)

Oct 2, 2008

Last week we got the chance to sit down and talk with the head-hauncho over at Shaba Games about the upcoming action/adventure game Spider-Man: Web of Shadows. During the interview Chris Scholz discussed a bunch of different aspects of his new Spidey game and what will help it stand out from the crowded market of mediocre superhero titles to hit store shelves recently.

We were also surprised to find out the most difficult part of creating a game based around the "web slinger" is actually the camera system, not the graphics or story line. Anyhow check out the full interview below (with trailer) and stay tuned right here to PlanetXbox360 for a hands-on preview of Spider-Man: Web of Shadows very soon; the game hits store shelves on October 21, 2008.

How faithful is the next Spider-Man? (Feature)

Sep 30, 2008

Another year, another Spider-Man game. After so many ups and downs in the web-slinging series, should gamers even care anymore?To find out, we asked one of the guys behind Spider-Man’s latest outing, Web of Shadows. We asked what his team was doing differently, and hopefully better, this time around. With such a massive cast of heroes and villains already announced, we asked how they planned to stay faithful to everyone and everything. ...

Spider-Man: Web of Shadows lets you choose a Black Cat model (News)

Jun 12, 2008

TVGB: "The new Spider-Man game, Web of Shadows, is all about seizing controlÂ¿or we guess it's all about seizing control since the website for the game is SeizeControl.com. Really, we don't know that much about it yet other than the info we gleaned from our interview on the game and the whole seizing control theme. To uphold this theme the good people at Activision are letting the fans make many decisions on how the marketing for the product will go."

Spider-Man: Web of Shadows (Preview)

Jun 9, 2008

Can we trust Spider-Man? Or, to put the question more accurately, can we trust his games? The superhero's franchise has been unpredictable at best and frustratingly inconsistent at worst. While 2004's Spider-Man 2 and 2005's Ultimate Spider-Man were both faithful and fun, 2007's Spider-Man 3 and Spider-Man: Friend or Foe were either painfully mediocre or absolutely terrible, depending on what console you had.

So, which extreme should ...

Good Spidey/Bad Spidey - Web of Shadows revealed (News)

Apr 18, 2008

Spider-Man fans will have the option of being the traditional good-guy web-slinger or operate on the supervillain side of the fence in new Spidey game Web of Shadows, judging by first details.

Teasing information has appeared on a teaser website for the new game, which reveals that it's set in New York City (no surprise there) and that Web of Shadows "gives you an unprecedented level of gameplay choice." ...

Spider-Man: Web of Shadows teaser and info (News)

Apr 17, 2008

Activision announced today that Spider-Man: Web of Shadows is currently in the works from Shaba Games and Treyarch for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2, PSP, Nintendo DS, Wii and PC. Although it wasn't ready to say too much about the action-adventure game, Activision did tell us that Web of Shadows will be set in a free-roaming, open-ended New York that combines web slinging with customizable superpowers. There will be the traditional combo attacks on the ground, but the game will also feature a brand new emphasis on vertical combat as gamers take Spidey to the skies and duke it out with bad guys.

However, it might not just be foes who are getting socked in the jaw. According to Activision, Spider-Man's latest adventure will let players choose how they want to play -- if folks want to be the friendly neighborhood superhero, they can, but they can also ignore missions and be the anti-hero who is only looking out for himself. Marvel heroes and villains will pop up in the adventure, and gamers will have the ability to change sides as they see fit.

Activision is keeping its lips sealed about what Spider-Man is up against in the new game but we know it's a threat to the entire world and that it can do some real damage to New York. From the one screenshot and teaser trailer, it looks like Spidey's up against a number of villains who can redecorate buildings and create giant oozing black tendrils. The black gunk and the alien-looking dudes crawling on the side of the building in the teaser makes us think symbiote, but there's no way to know what's going on at this point.
