If i could only get one,which would be right for me? I'm not a big fan of spider-man 2 (still have it for original xbox....hardly works)i really like shattered dimensions.I've been wanting to play a open world Spidey game on ps3 for a while now.I've heard both good and bad things about both games.Can anyone give me a completely objective view on both? Story?Open world fun? Voice acting? Gameplay? Any help would appreciated.

Story - They actually have very similar stories. Both deal with a rampant infection that's plaguing Manhattan

Open World - ASM is extremely fun. Haven't played WoS.

Voice Acting - ASM is great. Prominent voice actors and a Spidey who sounds like he should. WoS is awful but it does have Steve Blum's awesome Wolverine voice.

Gameplay - ASM is basically Arkham Asylum/City. Haven't played WoS

I had the same question a couple weeks ago. My thread should help: http://www.comicvine.com/spider-man/29-1443/which-spider-man-game-should-i-get/92-738629/#49

I would definitely go with Amazing Spider-Man. It's my favorite Spidey game and my 3rd favorite Super-Hero game overall.

I haven't played Amazing Spider-Man, though I highly doubt it's anything like Arkham City; I really enjoyed Web of Shadows however.

The general consensus is it kinda copies and pastes Arkham Cities combat and stealth.One attack button,a dodge button.They both looks cool but so far WOS has the lead with multiple endings,different attack styles by changing the suits,Venom,And a lower price tag overall.

How's the voice acting? I've heard it's pretty bad,that peter sounds like he hasn't gone through puberty,but is there much to do just free roaming?Side missons? Random Crimes? How's the combat and unlocking system?

The voice acting is terrible save for Venom.

The rest is great.

Play it.
