Okay, so I'm sure you've played Web of Shadows by now. I have (and yes I've beaten the game on both storylines) and I must say, besides the couple weak voice overs- Spidey being the main one (sounded like a teen rather than a mid 30's man to me!)- I was impressed. The redesigned combat system was insane: The aerial, wall, and combos, I mean hello? It was sweeeeeeeet!!!!!!! I tell ya, the Spidey games are just getting better and better. I also liked how you could switch between the good ol' red and blues and the symbiote with a click of the stick whenever you wanted. The storyline was good as well, especially the red and black choices so YOU control how the story goes. Both endings were dynamite too, although, I feel the final level (I don't want to give it away to those who haven't played it yet....to those who haven', get a copy and play it ya bum!!) was fairly easy. And also, the Black suit ending....does that mean they're coming out with a sequel? Why would you set that up and not follow it through if that wasn't the case? Let me know what your thoughts are on this matter.
On to the next topic: SPIDER-MAN 4!!!! So I've heard various rumors about this movie. So before the assumptions, let us go through the truths: 1. In Spidey 3 (I'm still irked by that movie) Doc Connors had a sample of Pete's Symbiote- he still has it people- Hint Hint: Carnage ya'll! 2. Doc Connors. Character established in 2 & 3. Nuff said. 3. Gwen Stacy: Established in 3 and already had Pete come onto her (even though he was under the influence of the symbiote) and she definitely likes him....hmmm. 4 & 5. -POSSIBILITIES- 4. Norman Osborn has been in all three movies....in some form or another... Now in the comics, Norman died the same way as he did in the movie...or so Spidey and us readers thought. Norman woke up in a morgue, his impalement healed all but a ginormous scar to remind him of it. His Goblin formula not only enhanced his strength and abilities, but it also gave him a pretty significant healing factor. He hid in Europe for a while and honed his abilities. When he felt he was ready, he returned to the Big Apple with a fury that nearly killed Spidey. And I mean NEARLY. So since Harry is gone, will big bad Normie return for round two? I think so; if not this upcoming movie, then the next for sure. 5. I have watched Venom's "death" over and over again, and honestly, I'm not convinced. If you look close, it almost looks like Eddie and the Symbiote teleported somewhere. Maybe Venom isn't dead, maybe he is. I think its horrible that Venom got 15 minutes tops on 3. If that's the end of what's considered one of Spidey's greatest villains, then shame on the people who wrote 3 and shame on Sam Raimi.
Now the speculations: 1. Morbius, Lizard, Carnage, Black Cat and the Sinister Six have all been rumored to be in 4. Raimi even expressed his eagerness in doing Morbius because he combines the supernatural with the natural. Raimi also said that since Morbius came from Doc Connor's research in animal genetics-LIZARD!!!!- it only made perfect sense to bring the Lizard in as well. 2. Raimi also wanted to do the Sinister Six...but seeing as how Doc Ock and Sandman are out of the picture, and seeing as how there are various incarnations of the 6, the only possibles are Mysterio, Kraven the Hunter, Electro, Rhino, Vulture, Chameleon, Scorpion, Hydro Man, Shocker and Hobgoblin. So if they do the 6, who will it consist of and how will they provide ALL of their backgrounds? 3. And now, (here kitty kitty kitty....) Felicia Hardy: the Black Cat. Rumors of her appearance in 4 have been heard far and wide, but NONE have been confirmed by anyone on the Spidey 4 crew, not even Raimi. Here's the kicker though, he HAS NOT DENIED THE RUMORS EITHER....so will Felicia be on the prowl in 4? We'll see in two years right? Let me know what you think.
