    We're not sure the first screenshot for Activision and Beenox's The Amazing Spider-Man lives up to its name -- sure, Spidey's suit has a detailed, texturized-rubber look and he most certainly is perched very high up, on top of a skyscraper, but those details should be a given. We get it; he's Spider-Man. But how does he function in The Amazing Spider-Man? How do his maneuvers and attacks compare to the Hollywood film this game is tied to? Does his face resemble Andrew Garfield's?We're able to glean more information from December's trailer, of course, but if the first screenshot wasn't going to be action-packed, at least it could have been artistic.

  • Beenox working on an Amazing Spider-Man game (legal clarification: THAT IS JUST THE TITLE)

    As you, let's be frank, knew all along, Activision will release a video game based on The Amazing Spider-Man, the celluloid relaunch of America's favorite wall-crawler. IGN spotted a poster for the game at the New York Comic-Con, going on ... well, right now, as a matter of fact. Though its existence is no surprise, the fact that it's being developed by Beenox may just be. Should it release alongside the film in July, The Amazing Spider-Man will follow Beenox's dismal Spider-Man: Edge of Time by just nine months. Nine months. Like a baby. On the bright side, Amazing Spider-Man will likely only feature one Spidey as compared to Edge of Time's two Spideys. So maybe it only needs half as much development time? Maybe?
