This information comes from the most recent issue of Game Informer...

•One screenshot features Dr. Connors helping Spider-Man out

•Random crimes ( bank heists, muggings, and car chases) are spread throughout the city.

•The game is after the movie. You could potentially have a few things spoiled in relation to Parker and other people featured in the movie since this takes place afterwards.

•The game has a built in reader. You can unlock full comic book issues to read in the game such as Amazing Fantasy #15(Spidey's first appearance)

•The game tries to capture Spider-Man's lucha libre inspired moveset from the movie.

•Near the beginning you'll see capsules with different Spider-Man villains, such as Rhino, Vermin, and Scorpia. Rhino has already been confirmed as a villain for the game and as a Gamestop pre-order bonus mode where you play as Rhino

•Been in production for nearly two years

•The combat is straight up Batman. There's a melee button and a counter button. When you fill it up, you get to use special attacks like Batman's in Arkham City. Spider-Man also floats with punches like Batman, but GI claims he's far more acrobatic when he does it.

•Web zip can be used to get out of a sticky situation and hide. So apparently there is some sort of stealth.

•There's a typical experience system for levelling combos and you can find things called web techs that give you new abilities or upgrade them like being able to web people to the wall.

•Many of the story missions take place in doors in their own linear levels

•Some of the side content involves taking photos of locations, performing tricks for a videographer, and finding comic books.

•The citizens will say things to you based on things you've done in the story

•Seamus Kevin Fahey(Spartacus: Gods of the Arena and the newer Battlestar Galactica) helped with the story

•Web rush slows down time as a sort of Spider Sense. It can be used for moving through Manhattan, but it can also be used in combat.

- No voice actors have been confirmed yet. It remains to be seen if Andrew Garfield or Emma Stone will be lending their voices to the game.

- Gwen Stacey, Dr. Curt Connors, Rhino and Iguana are the only confirmed characters so far.

- Brown believes that this is the best-looking Spider-Man game to date.

- The game will feature several additional “skins”(alternate costumes), including some that have never been in a Spidey game before.

- Almost all scenes are rendered in-engine with motion capture.

- Webswinging will be “completely unique compared to past games, an incredible blend of speed and vertigo.”

- Spidey’s utility belt will be used to reload his webshooters. Thankfully, you’ll never find yourself running out of web cartridges as they are unlimited.

- The open world of Manhattan was designed with a “balance between realism and what’s best for gameplay.”

- “The Amazing Spider-Man has been developed to be an AWESOME game on its own, not a “movie game.” That’s why we’ve set the story after the movie.”

- There will be ‘photography missions’ where Spidey must use his Peter Parker skills to find clues in levels throughout Manhattan.

- The combat shares “similarity” with Batman: Arkham City but “adds a lot of unique stuff.”

- More classic Spidey villains will be announced in the near future. “The coolest thing is that we get to reinvent their origin with Marvel.”

- When the game is complete, you’re able to stay in Manhattan and finish side missions, and even select the time of day.

- In the game, the police and Spidey are working in concert, which is a direct contrast to the events of the film where Captain George Stacey seems intent on capturing the ‘masked vigilante.’

- A new trailer showing off the game’s “Web Rush” mechanic will be released soon.

- No Collector’s Edition has been announced yet.

- Custom soundtracks won’t be supported.

The Amazing Spider-Man will support Move on the PS3, Beenox confirmed after a stray piece of box art spotted by iWaggle3D got questions churning.

The box -- check it out to the left -- features the final art for The Amazing Spider-Man, Beenox said, but it doesn't specify how the Move will function with the title. Its insert shows two Move controllers and the PS Eye: If it does use two Move controllers, The Amazing Spider-Man will be the first third-party title to offer the dual-controller option, iWaggle3D noted.

The Amazing Spider-Man is hitting Wii and Xbox 360 as well, and while the Wii will use its own brand of motion-controls, there is no word yet if we'll be able to Web Rush with the Kinect.

In an effort make you feel like you're Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man, Beenox has designed Web Rush mode, a first-person mechanic that lets Spidey move to a particular section of the environment in a cinematic parkour sequence.

Think of that initial first-person bit seen in the movie's teaser trailer, which moves the camera inside Parker's head and lets you see skyscrapers of Manhattan through the eyes of Spider-Man.

#spiderman Spider-Man had run out of web-fluid. That's what most people thought after playing the last web-slinging game from Activision. Spider-Man: Edge of Time met with harsh reviews and felt like a rushed, muddled time-traveling mess. Where was all the freedom, fans asked? And what about the speed? The evils of annualization dealt Marvel Comics' most popular character a terrible setback, leaving Spidey's video game future battered and crumpled in a trash bin. More »

The Amazing Spider-Man game is looking good, and that might have something to do with it looking like Batman: Arkham City. A demo from Spider-Man developer Beenox was going pretty much by the numbers -- open world to websling in, red and blue tights, etc. -- and then it went indoors. Spider-Man ...

Good morning, true believers! Are you ready for The Amazing Spider-Man to get weird? During an interview with Addict of Fiction at the London Super Comic Convention, Spidey co-creator Stan Lee revealed that he will be a playable character in Beenox's upcoming Amazing Spider-Man game.

This news raises so many questions, chief among them what? Will he be playable throughout, or just in one small sequence? Will he have spider-powers? Can Beenox's art team do justice to his moustache? We are begging Activision for more information on this wacky news.

#spiderman Superhero movies flirt with distaster when they try to throw more than one antagonist at the main character. But, superhero video games? They thrive on that formula. So, in the first of what we have to assume will be many unveilings, Activision's rolling out a look at how old-school bad guy the Rhino will look in the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man game, which ties in to the summer movie of the same name.

The Amazing Spider-Man, our friendly neighborhood foray into the world of movie tie-in gaming, will be released on June 26 for the 360, PS3, Wii, 3DS and DS, according to Game Informer. This is ahead of the film's theatrical debut on July 3, and seeing as the game serves as an addendum to the film, our initial reaction was to worry about potentially spoiling the ending of the movie ahead of its release.

Spoilers. For The Amazing Spider-Man. While we reel in shame over the sheer stupidity of our own thoughts, check out the game's latest trailer above, courtesy of IGN's YouTube channel.
