IGN Reviews - Spider-Man: Edge of Time - Game Review

[HerbieChuckNorris]

we need radical to make a good spiderman game they did well on prototype

[AaR07n]

CAN U FREEROAM?

[Ironbat92]

@AaR07n No, just go through a room, beat up bad guys, and repeat for about 6 hours. If you want Freeroaming environments, go get Arkham City,

[ThisDudeMark]

This game fucking blows

[gigsaw68]

Bullshit

[Loikeodkoekodk]

this game looks like shit stupid

[BEYONDxTHExSPIDER]

I'd liked the skins you can unlock, the voice acting, but the rest of the game was crappy.

[poohtournc]

YOU SUCK AT REVIEWS

[poohtournc]

Edge of time was awesome a lot better than shattered dimensions

[nin10do4eve]

this game is FUCKING GOOD. I GOT IT ON HE 3DS. I DONT UNDERSTAND THE BAD REVIEW.

[MrSwaper619]

WHEN WILL THEY STOP WITH THIS FUTURE SHIT!?!?!?

[TheSmrtMouth]

This game actually doesnt look that bad. It reminds me of the old spiderman ps1 games remastered or something

[123456cephiro]

this review suck i love that game it remind me a psx game that was actually good

[TraGicJohnson49]

Mix Spider-Man 2 with some Arkham City-like gameplay and you can have successful game instead of this repetitive crap.

[FullStrikeOG]

I want an open spiderman game in new york, where you can swing from building to building, do quests. And fight good old villans like the lizzard, green goblin, scorpion ect . Just like spiderman 2 was!

[elitewolf20]

Im a huge spiderman fan but Batman Arkham city makes this game its bitch

[defendedmeteor3]

@elitewolf20 Just like every other Superhero game in existence except Batman Arkham Asylum and Mavel Vs Capcom 2 (my opinion)

[Battdude96]

Maybe it would've been better if they made a sequel to shattered dimensions, and didn't have a new gimmick every couple of years.

[S1deshowRob]

People liked this piece of shit?

I'm sick of everyone hating on IGN because they're butthurt.

[SuperAsafa]

fuck you IGN!!!

you guys giving a bad grades for a great games

i hope one day you all burn

[aznassassin159]

Or you can get Arkham City.

[100percentgamer]

I really liked the story of this game, and I honestly wouldn't mind seeing it become a movie, even if it's an animated direct-to-DVD release. But the gameplay was dull and repetitive, and removed everything that was good and interesting about Shattered Dimensions, leaving us with the bare minimum of what you could call a Spider-Man game. This is the prime example of what happens when you put more focus on story than gameplay.

[LoneWulfJ3D]

Spiderman for the PS1 .. That was the shit ;D

[eminemfan12367]

wow ign must REALLY hate it after giving it a 4.5

[upload648]

though*

[upload648]

i tough this game is very cool,but after this review i changed my mind

[Duckinit12]

I watch the IGN Review then I run over to Classic Game Room. I get the negative and the positive! ;D

[mirage12896]

I personally think this game is pretty decent, great story line, but i do have to agree it is repetitive...

[MrGhostbustersclan]

@mirage12896 I agree too, but IGN gave this game a very low score. Fuckers...

[JimmyNoonan724]

shattered dimensions was great (with the exception of no free roam) edge of time was ok but it could have been better (and again no free roam) but i personally think edge of time was pretty good

[butterball97]

shattered dimensions was awesome

[TheJuancarlos97]

F.U.

[MrMEXICANgringo]

HOW IS THIS WORST THE DUKE NUKEM FOREVER

[keasy666]

This is the most intense, suspenseful, short, and funny Spiderman game yet and when you play it, you will agree with me.

[saar0006]

When are they gonna give us a web of shadows 2 i don't care if they call it anything else all I want is a good spider man game

[keasy666]

@saar0006 there can't be because the symbiotic race is dead and so is Venom.

[komek]

@saar0006 Have you seen the new trailer of Spider-Man (VG)?

[Campagiorni100]

After web of shadows the franchise has been making shit games

[BigDuzPimpin]

@Campagiorni100 was web of shadows good? i heard mixed things

[Scorpio3667]

@BigDuzPimpin dude web of shadows will blow ur mind ive got it and i really like itbut if ur lookin for something challenging its not the right game for you XD it was quite easy

[TGPGamingHD]

@Campagiorni100 fail comment

[rockkong1]

@Campagiorni100 Web of shadows was badass

[AnthonyTheAwesome500]

@Campagiorni100 i agree. web of shadows was so underrated in my opinion i mean yea it wasnt the greatest game but it was huge step in the right drection but then they started making repetetive button mashers and no way to swing around the city which was the best part about it in my opinion

[sondoremagma]

@Campagiorni100 you gotta admit that shattered dimensions was pretty good

[KaijuKingGojira]

@Campagiorni100 what about shattered dimensions

[kalvort]

Played this. Good story - Repetitive gameplay. 6/10 for me

[Scorpio3667]

@kalvort i totally agree with you but i would give it a 5/10

[Scorpio3667]

@Scorpio3667 and now ive got shattered dimensions which i really like XD

[Scorpio3667]

@kalvort ive got it and i still think its a good game but the let down was that they didnt put much of a good story line in this game and i recommend this game to people who enjoy space/time sort of games and im not into that sort of stuff XD and i still really liked this game

[andyandozer]

Wait....you miss the POV fights? In the Shattered Dimensions review, the guy bashed that.

[sully12300]

Spiderman 2 is the best one

[hotholy99]

if anyone wants to get this, dont let this review stop you. i have it for my wii, and its got the best combat ever. and the missions arent redundant. SCREW IGN!

[TehKeNeTiK]

@Albion105 Ever notice your mothers abortion pills failed...

[MrMadmike15]

Great game...got it for xmas, only issue is that when swinging i wish you could launch off from the web...9.5 out of 10

[RKO619ification]

4.5? i gave this an 8.0 i disagree with everything he said

[09cdou]

you don't know about the 3Ds one then

[XyamacaFly]

Wow

[action1958]

@NeosForme Spider Man Shattered Dimensions was reviewed by Hilary Goldstein, Spider Man Edge of Time was reviewed by Daniel Krupa, they are two completely different reviewers so that may explain why they are complaining about the first person fist fighting, because the guy in this review probably havent played Shattered Dimensions and never experienced the first person fist fighting! why cant anybody understand that different reviewers give different opinions?!

[TheSmithsFive]

Obviously every one who says this was a bad review has never played the game, heck even gameinformer gave this a bad review

[XxCain0xX]

Arrrgh I don't know which spiderman game to get.This recent one looks shockingly bad. When the hell are they gonna make a free roam, like spiderman ultimate again with no shit camera or web slinging.

[ZADER4427]

I agree with all of this although I still like edge of time

[jmantwymon]

1ll give ign a -10 for review ing this game like is was a shattered deminsions sequal when its diffrent game with a diffrent story

[AncientVoids]

this game is amazing i dislike this review

[Battdude96]

2 Spider men are not better than 4.

[oddodd1331]

i agree with the rating. stupid button mashing only goes on for so long. every game you do the same shit, and fight the same villains. every spiderman you fight robots. so annoying.

[deathwarrior315]

I guess he gave it a 4.5 is because there are only 2 spider men instead of 4

[NarutoRocks2011]

uk are just angry because they can never make this

[ellismilburnjacob]

Just to be clear, do any of you actually think this game deserved better? I mean is it any better than the other spiderman flops?

[prototayp2]

im a big spider man fan but is game was just fucking crap.

[TGPGamingHD]

@prototayp2 better then spiderman 2

[GreenDayFan625]

@TGPGamingHD spiderman 2 was the best one this was the worst. the story was good but the gameplay sucked

[TGPGamingHD]

@GreenDayFan625 this game has the bests story.combine gameplay with web of shadows.it would be better then spiderman 2

[DanielDiDomenico89]

That was a fuckin surprise!!! I thought for sure it would have got no less than 7, but 4.5 (Bad) Holy Fucking Christ!!! And I used to think ign only gave good reviews to help sell video games. (those who still want this game, give eb games a week or two and they'll sell it for $10 like Duke Nukem 4ever.

[vtasj]

I trust ign reviews

[ellismilburnjacob]

@vtasj WTF?!?!

[NeosForme]

Anyone else find it funny how IGN complains repeatedly in this review about the first person fist-fighting scenes being gone, when in their very own previous review of Shattered Dimensions they said it was a stupid idea that nobody would ever want? XP

[Tomdamom]

@NeosForme i guess british people like stupid things

[Albion105]

@NeosForme Anyone else find it funny that it's not the same reviewer, and every reviewer is entitled to his/her own opinion, and how you are trying to bash on IGN because you saw how other people are doing it and thought you'd get thumbs or just get noticed as a cool guy :)

[Seven7eh]

@NeosForme Its IGN what do you except?

[spiiderslayerrr]

Aren't people happy that a hero actually dies?

[joelx1000]

the thing that sucks about ign is that they always comparing games to other ones in there reviews the only time a game should be compared is if it is a direct sequel to another game not a "spiritual sequel" an actual sequel or if the game is copy paisted version of another game this game is not a direct sequel

[yahyah118]

This is total fucking bull, i agree shattered dimensions was a good game, but u r not even pointing out d good things in this game

[KINGRYAN1198]

A spiderman fps were his webs were shot from a assault riffle, now that would get a ten.

[blibble321]

Bullshit. Glad I never listen to these morons. They rarely ever say anything is fantastic apart from GTA or COD.

[thegroove14]

@blibble321 and skyrim, mario, zelda, uncharted, dk, sonic, raymen, batman, dark souls, battlefield, god of war, crysis, rage, forza, infamous, gears of war, star fox,etc.

[blibble321]

@thegroove14 These money grubbing corporate assholes? I'm sorry, but you're stupid if you can't see that this joke of a 'gaming' site have completely greased their hands at every opportunity.

P.S I said RARELY. Plus a lot of those games they didn't say were amazing.

[thegroove14]

@blibble321 they still got good scores.

[blibble321]

@thegroove14 Not all of those got goof scores at all. For example, did IGN point out the MASSIVE issue of a bug that cripples the framrate as your save file expands on Skyrim on PS3? NO. And the patch was not released till weeks after their review. So why did they not say anything about it? Because they are money grubbing shitbags.

[ellismilburnjacob]

@blibble321 They have a video on that exact issue...

[ThePonsor911]

@thegroove14 sonic games blow, well the newer ones

[DoctorReflux]

@ThePonsor911 Sorry, but it's not 2006 anymore. Sonic games were good ever since sonic 4 (in many people's opinions) which was like nearly 2 years ago.

[ThePonsor911]

@DoctorReflux yeah but not as good as the other games you mentioned not in the same league as some

[DoctorReflux]

@ThePonsor911 That's your opinion my friend.

[TheBroheimer]

I don't understand is it a cool thing to hate IGN's reviews because I have actually played this game, unlike 95% of you and I must say it is really bad compared to Shattered Dimensions.

[WeirdoWhoMakesVideos]

So should I get this considering I am a fan of the original ?

[RedRex300]

wow...this gus a real dick

[onlyelisha]

Not saying this game is the best in the world or anything, but 4.5 does seem pretty low. Who takes IGN reviews seriously anyways?

[RoboGamer1]

SCREW IGN they can't decide what a good game when they see it all they care about is xbox games and seeing a good call of duty game thats all they where built for. This guy just doesn't know how to rate a good spider-man game when he sees it. He didn't even look at the good cinematic cutt scenes throughout the game. They come out with 1 spidey game like once a year and these guys can't give a good enough rating on anything. IGN go screw yourself.

[Kirbyguy12345]

Wow a 4.5 really one thing good was the voice acting the game doesn't look bad the gameplay looks good oh ign you bitch to much

[Montesama314]

What about the rest of the positives, such as different challenges to beat which can add some replay value and provide multiple costumes and concept art to view?

What about the well-done voice acting and writing, especially the banter between the two Spideys?

What about the detail of the art style, including the clean textures on each alternate costume your Spideys wear?

Oh well, I guess those don't matter, because the game is supposed to be Shattered Dimensions all over again, right?

[TheUnbiasedGamer]

Is it just me or does this guys voice seem to be a bit drowned out by the game volume and everything else. I can make out most of what he's saying but it seems that he's being overpowered by the background noise. Ign seems to have bad editing when it comes to sound i guess.

[johnjaccobs]

LOL FUCK THAT BRITISH BASTARD AT LEAST 525 PEOPLE AGREE ITS NOT TERRIBLE YOU FAGGY BATMAN KIDS

[cyblox07]

@johnjaccobs shut up about us brittish!

[johnjaccobs]

@cyblox07 WHAT R YOU GOING DO ABOUT IT YOU MAJOR WAR FAG

[cyblox07]

@johnjaccobs whatever just be more nicer about other contries :)

[johnjaccobs]

@cyblox07 LOL STAY IN SCHOOL KID I DIDNT INSULT YOUR COUNTRY JUST THAT IDIOT ANNOUCER THAT GAMES ATLEAST A 6.0 ITS STILL TERRIBLE BUT NOT THAT BAD ^_^

[cyblox07]

@johnjaccobs ok I miss judged you im sorry.

[EB1089]

Actually, I've never been a fan of Marvel's alternate '2099' storylines or characters.

[gangupnow]

4.5......they are being way too generous, has anyone ever played a decent spider-man game. His character is suitable for gaming...

[fudgehog68]

@gangupnow spiderman 2 is really good game, ultimate spiderman and web of shadows r also good

[thisisfun102]

should have gave it a 7.5 what the hell this game is not bad another fail by ign

[polloyaho]

IGNorance hmm.......

[ivanthemoron]

Should have gave it a 6.3

[SkyShaymin1]

Spider man 2 was the best, I beat it 100%

[ridercentury123]

Personally i thought it was great,it felt realistic unlike Shattered Dimension which felt like from a comic book.the fight style was the same to make the game feel more like SD,but my only complaint was A / 2099 getting stunned,it was okay but it will get you killed and sometimes prevent you from succeeding in web of challenge, true it was disappointing to see them in a building.my overall is 8.3 over 10 ,nice try Beenox but it didn't its not the Spider-Man we wanted.

[Higilo3]

shattered dimensions was repetitive in a very different way, will we ever have another good spiderman game, i'm starting to think not :(

[Scarlet1992Kille]

Come on, the game isn't that bad and if you can't get over the repetitive nature on these type of video games then don't bother playing it.

And for the record avoid your expectation when your going to play game that's follow.

[Heatseaker19]

u know when I saw gameplay footage of this game long before it was released I noticed that you are ALWAYS inside this metal dull building. I was hoping that wouldnt be true for the whole game but unfortunately it is... lol who the hell is going to buy this with Arkham City sitting on the shelf? These guys have failed miserably.

[MrREAPERsz]

Lol spiderman runs like he has a load in his ass, and the combos look lame.

Actvision should take lessons from ubisoft and other wall climbing games.

Rofl and look at the views!! This review was made last month and it only has 114,208+ views, who cares about a lame spiderman game? Actvision needs to give up.

[lazysandwhich]

cool a stargate

[Tykiller12345]

This game atleast should get a 6.0

Activion please make rocksteady make spiderman games and you will see how good it will get. Beenox should have made a sequel to shattered dimensions and make it a free roam spiderman we haven't got those in while.

[sonicdihedgehog1]

@Tykiller12345 rocksteady is owned by wrner bros. who also owns dc. so yeah, though luck unless rocksteady somehow lose the rights. but beenox is making an open world spiderman game that they are bringing what made spiderman 2 great. the game is called the amazing spiderman.

[ecartman12]

IGN if you are reading this comment I don't want to see this idiot review another game EVER. He narrates the review like he is not bothered and just wants his money. He is a lazy reviewer. Let the better reviewers review a game like this next time. Thumbs down for this video.

[cmsucks123]

lol all the negatives this game got (repeptitive,bland enviroments,etc.) are in call of duty, and COD gets 9.5, but spidey gets 4.5....FUCK IGN

[RosenrotStalker]

@cmsucks123 9.5? do u still live in 2009 or something

[cmsucks123]

@RosenrotStalker IGN always give the same shit of cod a 9 or 9.5

[seaurchinceviche]

@cmsucks123 IGN gave COD Black Ops an 8.5, so shut the fuck you dumbass queerbag.

[cmsucks123]

@seaurchinceviche they gave cod mw3 and 9, so fuck off jerk off

[EpsilonLP]

@seaurchinceviche that's because Black Ops sucked, just like MW2 and MW3 (MW1 was a masterpiece)

[Knightshield]

that's what happens when you do a (poo) cut and paste job Activision

[sonicdihedgehog1]

how many sales did EoT recieve?

[TheMegacooldude900]

Jesus Christ it's not that bad

[gamemonster7]

When this game was released, it was like nobody give a fuck about this game, but when Batman AC Was released, the game sold millions!

GO BATMAN!

[TheFinalEpic]

@gamemonster7 Lol cause batman was created by a studio who is famous for creating universal acclaimed games. Which is what they'v ebeen doing lol.

[kody87061]

I think he meant

+ Good voice acting

- Still not Call of Duty

- Still not Call of Duty

- Still not Call of Duty

[blibble321]

@kody87061 You can say that for every game till the next COD and the next GTA.

[trollbie]

@kody87061 They gave zelda a 10 higher than any call of duty ever...so wtf are you talking about retard?

[TheDJLDubstep]

@kody87061 Call of duty is shit.

[SkitKid45]

@TheDJLDubstep Agreed.

[SuperBlur17]

Edge of Time was great!!!!!!!!! Vip codes are on the way. I think it's great. The next game?

[brattyHunter1]

This game should have been a dlc for shattered dimensions

[eloretdemola]

soooooooooo the game was good than?

[SorroWoW16]

N....NNNN...N....EEEDDDD G..GGOODDD SPIIIDD...ERRRRMMANNN G...AMMMMM....E

[TheSoulja99boy]

FAIL

[RANDOMNESITY]

the only good spider man game spiderman 2

[Rnzzy]

wow this game sucks :)) arkham city all da way man

[polloyaho]

Fucking IGNorance seriosly this game at least deserved a 6.0

[stopplayingwithmyfat]

I think IGN gave X-Men Destiny a 6.5/10 and that game was repetitive with boring/stupid boss battles and shitty graphics, so how can this game even though I never played it be lower and have the same reasons for being bad? Shattered Dimensions looks and feels like this game so that's why I won't play either now. Stick to a real hero game like Batman Arkham City!!

[BongaFish]

Well, at least Shattered Dimensions is probably super cheap now.

[crashpal]

Y U COMPARE THIS TO SHATTERED DIMENSIONS? THAT WAS A DIFFERENT GAME IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION! THIS ONE TRIED TO BE MORE LIKE THE PSX SPIDERMAN GAMES!

[killaben85]

why is that when ever I hear this british guys review its always has a bad score?

[M3T4LV1K1NG]

Well, British people can not review video games.

[weskervirus8910]

i already played and clear the game and i found it very exciting,my little brother cleared Shattered Dimensions and i think i can see what this guy means but come on 4.5? at least a 7, those IGN guys sometimes they give some lowsy reviews.The thing i can complain about this game is the ending, they should have made a long and cooler ending scene.

[lucaspolo10]

Can be this guy more boring? And a 4.5!!? Oh, c'mon, at least a 6.5... :(

[thebadassjoshuaroca]

screw this ill dust off my ps2 to play spiderman 2 :D

[FunkmasterRichard]

@thebadassjoshuaroca Or play Arkham City, play as catwoman, and pretend it spiderman haha

[puke1994]

the storyline's good but the game is too easy :/ completed it in hours

[Symphonia30]

There is WAY too many Spiderman games and not enough X men games.

[halide666]

Arkham City >>> Edge of Time........

[SibberMokey]

Shattered dimensions was better but he makes this sound horrible what the heck

[TheWondrous1]

Honestly speaking,and not IMO,this game was alright.It's true that it seems as if they took a few steps back from 'Shattered Dimensions',but there's no way it should have gotten such a low score.It,s more or less a 6.0 if you will.

[REDGUY2764]

I doubt I'll get this game, as they took our the Noir parts, which were my fav parts of shattered dimensions

[DarthJamie1]

this guys an idiot. edge of time is one of the best games ive ever played. it is even better than shattered dimensions, and thats something.

[SuperPapagalu]

for this video i will unsubscribe....

[ultracj123]

Meh this game is alright I guess but it can't by any structure of the imagination compare to arkham city. If you just want to be a superhero an kick ass pick up arkham city. If you're a die hard spidey fan maybe this game is for you.

[shaunosullivan111]

OK i have an idea... get catwoman from the batman arkham city game... out a spiderman skin on her... BAM! best spiderman game you will EVER make

[darrius13sniper]

haven't played it. this review makes me skeptical. i'll probably buy it when it's cheap.

[Excaliber237]

Spider-man shatter dimensions was a great game but im not sure about this one I have not played it but I saw some gameplay and its not so different to shatter dimensions no improvements so i dont know it its worth it or not.

[HogantheLogan]

just give spiderman to rocksteady and it will be greatest ever!

[sonicdihedgehog1]

@HogantheLogan sad thing is that rocksteady is own by warner bros. which are the same people who own dc. but i have a feeling that the amazing spiderman movie game will probably be the arkham asylum or arkham city of spiderman games.
