So I returned BO 2 and now I have 20 dollars on my account and I am a spending addict. So I was wondering... Which is better to get? The Amazing Spider-Man 1 or 2? If you can, please explain why you chose it. I would also like to point out there is the Amazing Spider-Man franchise for 20 dollars if you would suggest that.
Thank you!!

Which is better?

The Amazing Spider-Man
The Amazing Spider-Man 2

None of them worth 10$ but if you really like to buy one of them i'd say the first one is better in gameplay.

I really love Spiderman and he is probably my most favorite hero of everyone which is why I am asking the question but why would you say the first is better? Btw, do you know if they have fixed the crashing problem?

Both are bad. The second one is ultra bad. :P I think that Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions is better, but that's just my opinion.

Ive actually been reading A TON of reviews on each of them and found that out :/ But why would you say Shattered Dimensions is better? Is it similar to the Amazing Spiderman in that it is open world and you just swing to different markers?

Shattered Dimensions is not open world, it's a more linear experience, but is a great one. There's one of the spidermans that play like a stealth game much like Batmans.

Oh that's pretty interesting, I loved the Batman Arkham games because of that. Ill definitely think about it. I just saw an IGN video review of Amazing Spiderman 1 and am thinking of getting it and this game

It has 4 different Spider-men in 4 different dimensions. It's KINDA open world. Not as open as you think. xD Better check a gameplay video, but I personally think that it's a very nice game. It was a great decision for the developer to make 4 different Spider-men. ;) And remember that you can always get a refund if you don't like the game, as long as you have played less than 2 hours.

Ill check a video for it right now! Btw, I looked at the reviews and it says there is a bug where you cant save on Windows 10, do you know if they fixed that?

It works for some people. I think it depends on the game language that you choose.

I don't think it has a problem in English. I think it depends on other things too, but in the discussions, you can see that there's a way to fix this problem, IF you experience it.

Cool I think I have decided to get the game after seeing a nice review on it (and The Amazing Spiderman 1) but I have one last question... How good is the fps? I noticed on the video that it was kind of laggy, is that normal?

You probably can! I bought it only a few days ago and they still took it bad even though I had like 3 and a half hours on it

Nah, I already idled for all the cards thinking that I would be plowing through more of the same Dutiness.
It's not that bad though, just more sci-fi than i was expecting even after reading reviews and whatnot.

Out of the two I think you should get The Amazing Spider-Man 2™. The game-play looks better-but they both kinda SUCK. They have terrible reviews on metacritic.

My elaborated opinion regarding the entire games/movies/cartoons/comics franchise:
While Tobey Maguire looked like the Peter Parker nerd from the original comic books, Andrew Garfield looked like the Peter Parker from the 1990s cartoon. However he is too cringe-worthy and emo. This was the same issue I had with Tobey Maguire from the 3 spider-man films before these two. In my opinion both of these amazing Spider-men movies were terrible because the main enemies (The Lizard, Electro, Green Goblin) were bad too..and Spider-man did not crack any jokes when fighting enemies..he used to do that in the 60s cartoons..the enemy that was good (although dumb) was the Rhino but he's right at the end of 2 and that scene is super short..like they saved it just so people would want another-which is lame. I did like the fact Gwen is in them-made a nice change focusing away from a GINGER Mary Jane (yes red hair is not ginger =massive face-palm to Sony), and there is more stuff to do with who Peter's true parents really are (mostly about his dad). Maybe you should check out Shattered Dimensions, LEGO marvel Super Heroes or LEGO Avengers.

These are way better than the 5 latest movies and recent games:
1)Spider-man the Animated Series (1994-1998). Nothing beats it.
2)Ultimate Spider-Man (2001-2009) comics with Peter Parker are the best up to before Miles Morales. It has great art direction by Bryan Michael Bendis and amazing characters and development.
3)Spider-man and His Amazing Friends (1981-1983) cartoon
4)Spider-man (1967-1970) cartoon
5)The Amazing Spider-Man (comics from 1963-present)

Lol thanks for the INCREDIBLY intricate review of everything BUT the games :3 But seriously, thanks that's some really interesting input :D

I know we're talking about the game, but I voted the first one since the second movie sucked huge donkey balls. Btw, I'm talking about the most recent two films. If we're talking the original trilogy, 2 > 1 and 3 never happened.

1 looks better by the look of reviews.

Second one is pretty short, first one is just "meh" at best. Both are bad IMO, old Spider-Man movie games were great.

I would definitely agree with you, I absolutely loved all my old spiderman games and I love Spiderman in general which is why I am after one. I was thinking of getting the first one and Shattered Dimensions as well. What do you think?

Probably your best option. Shattered Dimensions is pretty good but has some trouble on Windows 10 and crashes often, first Spider-Man has frame issues on AMD cards but you can fix it. Go for it if you must get a Spidy game ^^

First one might be better, but it's optimized very poorly. It crashed frequently on the two PCs I played it on. Not sure if 2 has the same issue, never played it.

I would just get Shattered Dimensions.. save yourself the hassle.

I had not read anything about crashing on the sequel but did you ever find a fix on the crashing for the first? I am actually planning on getting the first and Shattered Dimensions since I returned BO 2 and got 20 dollars back

No, there's no fix. I tried everything and nothing worked. It also runs worse with AMD GPUs by default unless you use a fix for that. Even after the AMD fix, my PC with an AMD GPU ran it more poorly than the PC with Nvidia GPU.

This is one of those rare cases where you're better off getting a game on console.

Yikes well ill buy them both anyway since I can just return it tonight or tomorrow, hopefully since I don't have Nividia or an AMD GPU it will be easier to fix but if not, ill just return it. Thanks for the input!
