Product Description
In "Spider-Man: Edge of Time," Spider-Man faces one of his greatest challenges ever - saving Spider-Man. Developed by Activision-owned studio Beenox, Spider-Man: Edge of Time challenges the player to take on the roles of both classic Amazing Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099 to correct a time stream gone awry and prevent a catastrophic future brought on by the early and untimely death of Peter Parker.
"Spider-Man: Edge of Time" is a focused, action-packed adventure set in two connected and evolving timelines, from the contemporary times of the Amazing Spider-Man to the corrupted future world of Spider-Man 2099, against the backdrop of a rich, tightly crafted narrative by acclaimed Marvel veteran Peter David (co-creator of the comic book series Spider-Man 2099). The game features all-new "cause-and-effect" gameplay, where players will see how the immediate and sometimes unexpected effects of their actions as one Spider-Man changes the timeline of the other Spider-Man.

Spider-man: The Edge of Time Reviews
37 of 40 people found the following review helpful Better as an actual animated film, = Fun: This review is from: Spider-man: The Edge of Time (Video Game) I think alot of us loved last year's SHATTERED DIMENSIONS. Yes, it wasn't an open-world game and the story was pretty silly, but the presentation was top-notch and the variety of the levels made it truly fun. I'm certain that Activison and Beenox identified the two main themes in terms of criticism for SHATTERED DIMENSIONS: the story was weak and most gamers loved Spider-Man 2099 the most. As a character, because of his cool look and futuristic world, he almost works better as a video game character than he ever did as a comic book character. So now we have EDGE OF TIME, which gives us a really great story and 2099 as basically the lead character.Man, they really overreacted. The entire game takes place in an office building. Yes, this is a Spider-Man video game in which you never, EVER even see the skyscrapers of New York City. The entire game is really short, about eight hours, and because there are no changes in environment and enemies, you go from the... Read more 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful Fun but occasionally frustrating, By = Fun: This review is from: Spider-man: The Edge of Time (Video Game) I really did enjoy this game. I wish it was longer, though. I cleared the main story, doing and redoing web of challenges to try and get more gold medals. Out of the 68 challenges, I have a gold medal on 48 of them. Doing this, going for some achievements (42 of 47 as of now), and beating the whole story, I am at 81% completion and I would say have put in 12-13 hours of gameplay. The core story shouldn't take more than 8 hours, though. It was a ton of fun but the web of challenges are sometimes unfair and frustrating. I would recommend this game as an instant purchase to big spiderman fans, but a rental or a purchase at 30 or less for anybody else just looking for a good game to pass the time.8/10 EDIT: Okay, so I have gotten every achievement and finished everything. Totaled up to about 20 hours. Was good fun, but hopefully Beenox can deliver more with their next game coming on July 3, 2012. Open world here we come! 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful Worth the Play-Through for the Story, = Fun: Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Spider-man: The Edge of Time (Video Game) Overall, the game was a fun play. It could get a little repetitive with the tasks and objectives, but the story was excellent and definitely made the game worth playing. I would suggest buying it used, though. There isn't a whole lot of replay value in the game and it only took me about 3 days to complete. |
