| Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does whatever your mobile can... Oh yes. A Spidey movie without an accompanying mobile game would be unthinkable nowadays. With that in mind, Sony Pictures is set to unleash Spider-Man 3 on a phone near you this month. In traditional style, it's a 2D platform game, and you can do all the moves you'd expect: web-slinging, crawling up walls, and even Spider Sense. Combat's a big part of the game too, with a host of punch and kick attacks, along with combo moves. However, like the upcoming film, Spider-Man's dark side in the form of his Black Suit plays a big role in the action. See, when you switch to Goth Spidey (as we're calling him), you're stronger and more aggressive. However, to keep the suit's powers up, you have to be more aggressive spend too much time saving people and not enough time fighting or breaking stuff, and you'll be toast. It's this feature that could set Spider-Man 3 apart from the platform crowd. The game's due out in the next fortnight, so click 'Track It!' for an arachnamail when we review it. |
