World Tour Soccer 2006 - PS2 Game (Retro Fam)

Note - I have not played the game through, this is merely a first impression I've gained from sitting with it for a couple nights now.The verdict? Spider-man 2 for PS2 is going to be a milestone in video gaming. On the surface, it's another Grand Theft Auto ripoff, albeit the best copycat yet. But when you really look at what has been achieved...Manhattan was modelled for the city. Man-freaking-hattan. An actual existing city was created in a virtual context, complete with to-scale Brooklyn Bridge, Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Central Park, Times Square...even ground zero at the WTC. I can't think of any similar achievement in gaming, where a living, breathing city was transferred into digital space. Granted, I'm sure it's not entirely accurate, and it's not anywhere near as grimey as the real thing, but it still feels like New York.It's also NAILED the super-hero thing. Comic book games up to this point were usually just monotonous exploitations of franchises - run through some warehouse, battle a hundred idiot thugs, fight the boss guy, go onto a new level. They never captured the feel of comics, the patroling around the city, helping the average Joes and stopping petty crimes and robberies. This has raised the bar way high for any subsequent Marvel or DC based games.While getting comfortable with the many controls and combos comes with a steep learning curve, nothing feels cooler than swinging to and from destinations. I can honestly say I took 20 minute break.

First off, I must say that this game was positively excellent. Though it had little replay value, I really enjoyed it while it lasted.The Pros!The web-slinging is AMAZING. For the first time you are given an entire island to websling around. The environment is practically endless and there is so much to explore. The random crime setup is nice, since they give you extra brownie points. But oh my goodness, there is nothing like diving off of a tall building and watching Spidey tear through the sky. And the rebound of the web slinging is positively perfect! The basic mechanics that are signature to Spiderman are here, and it makes for a fantastic time. Webslinging is by far the greatest aspect of this game.The random crime system as mentioned before is also an interesting addition. If you ever played True Crime, the system is sort of like that. You'll hear somebody shouting for help and it is your choice whether or not you go to help them, much like the feds would prompt you in True Crime. If these random crime missions are completed successfully, you get extra points so that you can buy speed boosts and more moves.The purchasing system! Now it's been a very long time since I've played the game, but I'm pretty sure that whenever you go into a library or coming book store you can spend your skill points on buying new moves and speed boosts. Some things are superficial, like air tricks when you release your web, and others are helpful like mid air strikes and web thr.
