The key things to note about this new Amazing Spider-Man game is that it will be free roam, is set after the events of the latest movie and should have better combat and navigation abilities. If they can pull all these things off like they say then I think they’ll have a hit on their hands. As for the teaser, even though we only get eighteen seconds, the graphics in here look great and the movements look fluid so all we really need to see now is how the combat plays. Check out the trailer below and let me know what you guys think in the comments, am I just spider crazy?
