The Amazing Spider-Man 2
The Amazing Spider-Man 2
Sorti le 29 avril 2014, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 est un jeu d'action-aventure développé par High Voltage Software et édité par Activision sur Nintendo 3DS. Le titre, qui mêle aventure, combat et beat 'em up, adapte les événements du film éponyme réalisé par Marc Webb. L'intrigue se déroule deux ans après la mort de Ben Parker : Peter Parker, désormais doté de pouvoirs arachnéens, doit faire face à une menace grandissante menée par Harry Osborn, le Caïd et la mafia russe, tout en découvrant qu'il n'est pas le seul à traquer les criminels.
Techniquement, le jeu repose sur le Goliath Engine et intègre Steam comme solution DRM. La campagne principale demande environ sept heures pour être bouclée, tandis qu'une approche complétionniste étend l'expérience à près de vingt-quatre heures et demie.
Sur le plan de la réception critique, les agrégateurs Metacritic et OpenCritic affichent des moyennes respectives de 57 et 53, pour une note globale de 55. Gaming Age observe que l'œuvre s'apparente davantage à un jeu de super-héros ayant coïncidé avec la sortie du film qu'à une adaptation stricte. Hardcore Gamer qualifie le titre de solide grâce à son gameplay, tout en regrettant une durée de vie courte et un monde ouvert perfectible. Du côté des joueurs, un contributeur Metacritic défend les mécaniques de monde ouvert et y voit les fondations du futur Marvel's Spider-Man d'Insomniac, tandis qu'un autre compare les versions PlayStation, notant que l'édition PS4 charge plus vite et tourne plus fluidement que sa homologue PS3, Activision ayant appliqué un traitement similaire aux deux générations.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« The more I play The Amazing Spider-Man 2, however, the more I'm viewing it as a superhero game that just happened to have come out at the same time as a movie wih the same name. Obviously, there's a little more corporate synergy at work than that, but it's a sign of this game's quality that it 100% stands up on its own. »
« It’s by no means a top tier open world game and can be completed in a very short amount of time, but great gameplay makes The Amazing Spider-Man 2 a solid package that’s worth playing. »
« 'Amazing' really is such a strong term. How about the fairly acceptable arachnid, instead? [Aug 2014, p.79] »
« The Amazing Spider-Man 2 isn't a complete disaster, and I can easily see fans of Spidey enjoying it at a deep discount. It's just a shame that Beenox somehow got worse at making Spider-Man games over time, and that the powers that be insist on rushing them as movie tie-ins. Somehow, someway -- we will get our Arkham of Spider-Man games again. Until then, you can just pick up a used copy of 2004's Spider-Man 2. »
« There have been many worse Spider-Man games than this. But I can't recall one that's swung so conceptually close to greatness only to let poor execution drag it back to Earth. »
« If you loved the original ASM, or just want to see the story unfold, then give it a rental – it shouldn’t take more than about ten hours to beat, and you can halve that easily if you don’t mind putting up with a goon squad coming after you between missions. »
« The Amazing Spider-Man 2 comes in a next-gen wrapper, but feels like a last-gen experience. There’s plenty of fun to be had thanks to some fun battles, an entertaining story, and scads of collectibles. Just be prepared for an experience that looks and feels extremely familiar. »
« For all but the most passionate Spider-Man fans, TAS2 is one you can safely skip or get by with on a rental. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Gereksiz fazla nefret edilen bir oyun bence açık dünyası mekanikleri gayet güzel ayrıca marvels spiderman oyununun temelini atmış diyebilirim insomniac birçok konudan ilham almış ve geliştirmiş 6.5 puanlık bir oyun buçuklu puan verilmediği için 6 verdim »
« The PS4 version of "Amazing Spider-Man 2" loads a little faster and runs a tiny bit smoother than its PS3 sibling. The publisher Activision did the same thing with "Transformers: Devastation". There was very little work put into the next-gen versions of both titles. As far as the game itself, it's decent fun, but nothing spectacular. In fact, this sequel is inferior to its predecessor in almost every way. Only the swinging was improved. Other than that, the combat is simpler, missions are shorter and the open-world is smaller with less to do. It plays like a Spider-Man game for the younger crowd. On that level, I would rate this with a 6.3 out of 10. »
« The game doesn’t have a good graphics, and doesn’t have a good history, but if you Turn off your brain, you Will be happy and playfull with this game, the Batman Arkham Series combat is in the game, a Little weak then, but is a good combat, the most weak point is the graphics, but if you don’t mater for this, you can like it! »
« The game is perfect in my opinion the gameplay was good and the web swing is so perfect but the store is bad »
« It's kind of overhated but there are some extremely valid reasons to hate this game. The swinging is so uncomfortable in this game, I like the feature of using one trigger to fire a web from one hand but it's just not fun at all. When you talk about this game you have to mention the cutscenes which aren't bad but you can tell too well that they are done with motion tracking because the characters do not go one second without making some movement and it's really annoying but kind of funny sometimes. The story is okay once again and I really enjoyed the inclusion of Carnage and other villians. »
« Unwatchable piece of garbage right off the bat. Remind me of Iron man 2.Comically bad, pun intended. »
« Ok look its not THAT bad but its not GREAT but its fun for a spidey game a must try if you like spider man »
« Um jogo divertido, mas uma bagunça de história. Chega uma parte do jogo que é praticamente impossível andar pela cidade »
