When I first read that there was going 2 be the new goblin as a playable character, I was like, awsome, this is what I wanted since Spidey 1 on PS2, Freeroam as the Goblin.

I now have doubts on whether we are able to go free roaming because of the article that is on Gamespot.

Here's the article if u haven't read it


It says about the new content:

In addition to the levels shown, reps on hand filled us in on exclusive content for the PS3 collector's edition of the game, which will include an exclusive level and commentary from Bruce Campbell. The new level will put you in control of the New Goblin via the Sixaxis controller as he flies on his glider. The Campbell commentary will offer some behind-the-scenes insight on the game.

from Gamespot.

It says the 'NEW LEVEL'. To me that means that u can't just select an option to swap as the goblin. And that once u complete the mission thats it, back to spidey. I more imagined it as being like USM where u could swap to Venom.

Thoughts, ideas, etc...

You couldn't switch to Venom whenever you liked, until you completed the story missions. I think it will be the same in this game with the Goblin.

no, i think you ill just be able to be the new goblin in a specific area, but i am sure it is a COOL specific area.

Well, from what I recall of the pic of New Goblin, he was in new york as usual, where spidey can go...

And it was PROBABLY a poor choice of words, they probably meant new Chapter, I hope so anyhow...I'd like to be able to control New Goblin whenever I want too V_V

I remember reading in OPM that you can do exactly the same stuff as spidey, you can beat up gangs, fly around new york and everything else spidey can do.

Oh, well, thats good to know...providing that is true ^_^

Also, I updated the Collectors Edition topic, because I found out it is Pre-Order only (might not be, but thats what the EB guy said)

well i hope you can go every where that will be awesom. i want to throw some gobby balls with boomerangs and acid bombs(like in thefirst movie with those old guys) and just plain bombs. and of course fly the board.

Question: How does the collectors edition differ from the regular edition?

Question: How does the collectors edition differ from the regular edition?

Collectors Edition contains:

New Goblin as playable (once you unlock everything I think)

Some bonus DVD I think...Probably the Making of type of thing...BETTER BE SUBTITLED/CAPTIONED!!! I hate it when they don't...My hearing isn't so good V_V

Hmmm i just thought of something about the goblin. Will u be able to get off the board like in SM1 or will you be stuck on the board completely? What do you guys reckon?

I'm sure you'll be able to get off whenever...though you might nto be able to...

But it would be like being stuck as Spidey on a Web all the time...just awkward -_-

I'm sure you get off, and beat up people...

I think I heard you can do the same things as spiderman, in gamplay (not actual attacks/movements)....That is to say, you can fight crime, and such...

Could be wrong...I hope the board has a machine gun, or rocket launcher or something ^_^

Yeah if u cant get off the board, they should give u a really good reason not to. Stuff like rockets and guns would be cool but id like to see something original, like picking up villians from the glider, beating them up, them throwing them down to the ground. Imagine picking up a random goon, flying up to the top of the empire state building then *accidently* dropping them lol.
