Spider-Man and the Green Goblin: A Match Made for DS
It looks as if Nintendo got its hands on something sticky.
Spider-man, that friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, will be doing just whatever a spider can for Nintendo DS and GBA. Activision will be releasing a new game titled Spider-Man: Battle for New York. The game will feature him and his nemesis from the first Spider-Man movie, the Green Goblin, in a dual-sided story that lets you play as both characters.
While there were some screens given out last month, this is the first time we’ve heard anything about the main content, which provides some RPG-ish elements to it.
As Activision’s press release states,
Spider-Man: Battle for New York allows players to take on the role of their favorite Marvel Super Hero, Spider-Man, and one of his famed nemeses, Green Goblin, in an original storyline which builds upon their legendary comic book rivalry. For the first time in a handheld Spider-Man game, Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance players can personalize their experiences by choosing what abilities and powers to upgrade and when, such as Spider-Man’s web maneuvers or Green Goblin’s fire attacks, as they progress through the game. Playing as both good and evil, gamers will experience levels packed with frenzied action, in-depth combat and a host of unique super moves as they embark on the ultimate quest to save New York City from almost certain disaster. Spider-Man: Battle for New York is rated “E10+” (“Everyone 10+” – Cartoon Violence) by the ESRB.
What a way to bring Spider-man back into the game!
