Fuck open world. I'm so sick of that being used in Spider-man games. It hasn't helped the last couple of them. I'd rather have something tightly structured with good gameplay and a nice comic book story to go along with that.

"I'll wait for the reviews on this one. I do like the look of Noir and 2099 though. I was hoping this would be of Arkham Asylum quality, but it looks like a more standard brawler. For some reason, watching this video made me want an Age of Apocalypse X-Men game. Ahhh...childhood memories. "

Fuck yeah Age of Apocalypse! How about some Blink!

I have yet to see a spiderman game with great combat, i would rather it not become the main focus. Though i haven't played a spiderman game in a looong time, probably why i don't have open world fatigue yet.

They brought me back in with symbiote Spidey.  They're just re-using assets from Web of Shadows, but I loved that game,

I'm excited for the game but I worry that as a fairly big spider-man comic book fan it'll touch too many nerves and feel more like they've taken artistic license with everything to try and appeal to the masses.

I'm extremely disappointed because they are not releasing a PC version of this game. Since I don't have a PS3 or 360, I'll have to settle for the Wii version... 
 
... yeah. And I don't even like Spider-Man or Marvel. The games are great, though.

Higher moving hover cars I guess. 
 I personally think that the 2099 version is the most interesting. Noir looks good  because of the stealth takedowns, but it seems to be really limited in scope. You're staying out of the light and sneaking up on dudes, which is cool, but it's not what I'm really looking forward to. 2099, for me at least offers a more interesting environment. There's more to look at, it's more interesting, and he has different powers than the other 3. Plus it's a lot more vertical and high flying which I really like, falling through huge sky scrapers and seeing how crazy they are going with the villain interpretations is what I'm looking forward to in that universe.

They should just make a noir spider-man game. Better to have a good AA rip-off than what they're doing now.

ergh..Symbiote Suit again. Oh it's ultimate huh? Well I love that series, but we don't need another game based on it.
Only interested in Noir and Miggy. I would by a 2099 game just to play as Miggy. 
Oh damn, 2099 looks awesome.

I really hope they release a demo for this game because it shows a lot of promise and given the stigma attached to Spider-man games i fear people won't buy the game based simply on word of mouth alone.

Great, a spider-man game about combat. Not like there isn't enough of those around. Personally, I share Yahtzee's opinion on the matter and think that Spider-Man should be about the traversal, not the combat. I have no interest in running around and mashing on buttons because that doesn't sound like compelling gameplay to me.

Seriously though this looks like good brawler-y fun so I'll probably check it out when it comes around.

I followed the Spider-Man Noir series and can confirm that it features an alternate history version of Pete as Spider-Man. It is not a portrayal of the Marvel U in the past but a completely separate universe where apparently none of the other Marvel Heroes exist. It also has alternate, more realistic versions of several other characters from the comic including Kraven as a Russian drunkard, the Chameleon as a circus freak, Vulture (who was indeed the guy who jumped Noir-Spidey in this video) as a cannibal, Aunt May as an active communist, Norman Osborn as something I don't want to spoil and JJ Jameson exactly as he appears in Amazing Spider-Man except his mustache and Tayloristic management style suddenly make sense in the thirties setting.

I guess someone might have said some of this already but I don't feel like reading through all the comments.

Definetly agree, love the Noir style and it seems like Noir Spider Man is closer to a normal human in his abilities, which would probably make it easier to do a good game with him. 
 
As it is now, the game looks like it could turn out decent, but not much more.
