Spider sense

Among Spiderman's abilities is the 'spider sense' which is going to come in handy when you're trying to locate certain objectives within the missions. Spider sense works by holding down on the right control stick and the screen goes a dark shade of blue while objectives are highlighted in red. I used the spider sense a few times when I played the game in the presentation, mainly to locate a couple of bombs that were planted on a ceiling and to hunt down gang members. However, mission objectives are indicated by an on-screen yellow marker.In the presentation our host showed us some really cool next-generation Spiderman moves by beating up a gang of thugs and then he used Spiderman's spinneret wrist devices to project web fluid onto the gang members arm and onto a lamppost but it didn't stop there, he set loose another, another and by the end of the fight, the gang member was suspended by his limbs to three lampposts and one street sign. It was certainly a pretty cool sight. During the game you also get to play as Venom. The mysterious black suit turns out to be an alien parasite and it enables Spiderman when wearing it to swing faster and makes him stronger. However, the suit feeds on Peter Parker's vengeance and hatred which is not so good for our trusty Superhero. Also, at times in the game you get to play as Peter Parker which is a first in all of the Spiderman games to date.
