The trailer for the upcoming Spider-Man: Edge of Time video game has arrived, and though it is not a sequel to the Shattered Dimensions game, you can pretend it is if you like.
The storyline involves a villain traveling back from 2099 and altering history to the point that O’Hara reaches out through time to his only hope: the Spider-Man of 2011. In the new timeline, though, Peter is cursed by the Parker luck and happens to be doing quite well for himself, working a cushy job at a high-tech company called Alchemax. When he’s told that this isn’t the timeline it’s supposed to be, Peter isn’t completely sold on trusting Miguel.
Can you imagine the real world implications if our current Spider-Man storyline is still going by the time we reach 2099? You hate summer cross-over events now? Wait till that happens!
Love the premise – which is apparently written by Peter David – not sold on the game mechanics, at least from the trailer.
And don’t worry, Doctor Why . . . we’ll be reaching MC2 real-time soon enough.
