What better place to drop some info on the latest Spider-Man game than Comic-Con?
While Spider-Man: Edge of Time (http://www.joystiq.com/game/spiderman-edge-of-time) doesn't have the Mirror's Edge-style gameplay we didn't know we wanted until seeing the Amazing Spider-Man trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XayxMPrUP4), it does have something far more concrete: a release date of October 4.
The date was announced during an Activision event at San Diego Comic-Con today, along with the release date of Prototype 2, though Activision already dropped that info (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/07/20/activision-reveals-april-launch-for-prototype-2-september-for-x/) earlier today. There was a lot to like about Beenox's first swing at Spidey with last year's Shattered Dimensions, but our review (http://www.joystiq.com/2010/09/13/spider-man-shattered-dimensions-review/) criticized the game for feeling "rushed." Is just one year enough time to make sure Edge of Time doesn't feel similarly rushed? We'll get some hands-on time with the title at Comic-Con and let you know how what our Spidey-sense says. http://www.360haven.com/forums/images/styles/gametime/misc/pencil.png
