Spider-Man: Battle for New York screenies and meanies
With its nasty rat problems and smelly cabs (“aroma therapy” David Letterman calls it) one sometimes wonders why anyone would fight for New York. Ah but that’s what makes Spider-Man a true superhero. It’s not just the muscles, the spider sense, and web and the spandex suit that sets him apart. It’s his heart!
In Activision‘s DS game Spider-Man: Battle for New York from Torus Games, Peter Parker faces mean villains hell-bent on taking the city that never sleeps that he loves so much. Take a look at the bad guys dumb enough to mess with one of the most well-loved heroes in the world:
The Simian. A product of the genetic experimentation of Norman Osborne/Green Goblin. Part gorilla, part every Hollywood bad boy, Simian was meant to be Osborne’s next-gen soldier. But when that didn’t work out (too much muscles, not enough IQ) he was dismissed like a bad TV pilot. On his own, the Simian terrorizes Chinatown disrupting the production of dumplings and fortune cookies.
The Demo Goblin. Another experiment gone horribly wrong. (Damn, Norman, you got to start labelling your test tubes.) The Demo Goblin was born after an unfortunate human guinea pig was accidentally juiced by lightning. The result is a demolition machine: super-human strength with the ability to summon electrical energy. He can fry our hero using an electrified steel girders or an assortment of electrical projectiles
Children of OZ. Common garden variety thugs transformed by the OZ formula into powerful fire-wielding demons: OZ Strength, OZ Fire and OZ Elite. Each armed with unique power and ability, the Children of OZ exists to serve the GoblinÂ’s will and we all know what that is… demolish Spider-Man!
The rest of the screenies after the jump.
