Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions pre-order gets 4 new costumes, 'signature charge attack'

by Ben Gilbert on Apr 3rd 2010 4:00PM

We may only know about two of the four Spidey settings to be featured in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimension, but that hasn't stopped GameStop from announcing that pre-orders of the game (on any console) will get access to a Cosmic Spider-Man costume (which can be equipped in each of the game's four "universes"). Like in the comics, the extra-superpowered state of Cosmic Spider-Man will enable a "signature charge attack" that's exclusive to his costume, regardless of which world you're Spider-Manning around in.

Since GameStop didn't release an image of the Spidey iteration from its (presumably exclusive) pre-order bonus, we've dropped a picture of the totally rad Cosmic Spider-Man action figure above -- it's gotta look something like that in-game, right? And no, it's not a "doll." It's an action figure.

[Thanks Joshua!]

Ermmmm nice..

That really looks like some gimp stuff eh?

It's like the kinda storyline you'd prefer to forget about and pretend never happened.

So we're getting 2099 and the Web of Shadows "Bad Ending" Spidey?

holy shit, it looks like the other 2 spidermans are vemon and 2099

I really did want 1602 Spidey, too. :[

wow, Cosmic Spiderman. i still have his rookie card, along with the rest of the Marvel Universe Series 1 cards.

...and now i feel old...

It's all right man, I have them too.

Well it looks like your childhood....

*sunglasses*

was made Marvel.

Dude, epic fail.

This is how you really do it.

It seems your childhood

*sunglasses*

Was enrichened by Marvel comics, whom produced a lot of decent storylines that certainly defined that era and made some people rich to boot. And perhaps doomed some to a life of geekdom, which depending on the subject, is either good or bad. There's been some cases where a dejected nerd may have made a list, and may have killed some ex school'mates', but I'm sure it's all good.

YeAH

The Hooch Is Crazy!

clearly Optimus was referring to marvels long standing advertising phrase "Make mine marvel"

THANK YOU, Dark Wayne.

And don't forget your No-Prize!

Thanks but no thanks. Come back to me when you make a good Spiderman game. It had potential with the Noir style(looks like Batman:AA, look how well that did), but Amazing just looks like Friend or Foe, and with more 'dimensions' to be announced, I'm not sure how I feel about constantly switching between looks.

Amazing doesnt look anything like friend or foe. FoF was very intentionally blocky, and obviously played extremely different than this. It looks more like ultimate, but from what we can see so far it looks like it will play different from that too

Cosmic Spider-Man, Cosmic Spider-Man,
Dividing by zero when he can
Black Hole here, Red Dwarf there,
Can breathe in space with no air
Look Out!
Here comes Cosmic Spider-Man.

Is he strong?
Listen bud,
He's got intergalactic blood.
Can he end civilization from a thought?
Take a look overhead
Hey, there
There goes the Cosmic Spider-Man.

Here's my Pseudo haiku about another superhero.

The Incredible Hulk
He's got a large bulk
But when he's with a woman
He feels slightly more human

Hooch, looks like you....

*sunglasses*

got downvoted..

I remember cosmic spider-man from the very first Spider-Man game for the PS1!
Unlimited everything! Good times!

Wasn't he called "Captain Universe" back then?

Something like that, it was the 90's!

cosmic heroes are the best and most overpowered superheroes ever

that's why Silver Surfer rocks!

Damn OP heroes, stealing my Raid spots. Nerf them I say.

I'm a giant alien robot who has seen centuries of war and madness.

...and even I think Hooch is crazy.

Huge fan of the Cosmic Spidey outfit. Now we just need a good game to go with it.

Doesn't the headline read "4 new costumes" ?

What are the other 3? Or are they refering to the noir, amazing, and something else?

i think each universe is getting a different version of the cosmic costume, so it would technically be 4 costumes =p

This week's issue of Amazing Spider-Man had Captain Universe in it. Well timed Gamestop.

Awww crap, and here I was hoping to just pick this (likely) turd up in the bargain bin. So much for that idea. Damn you, Bobby Kotick! DAMN YOU!

he might be a
little to powerful

Looks like the infinity ward logo to me.

Sadly, I just can't commit to a pre-order after the quality of the last couple of games. Actually, if Shattered Dimensions was $40 I could pre-order it, but not otherwise.

I'm also assuming that the new game is no longer sandbox style. All I really want is Spider-Man 2's controls/mechanics with modern graphics and better city interactions. NOT Ultimate Spider-Man and Spider-Man 3's simplified controls and boring gameplay. Web of Shadows was acceptable, but *not great*.

ZOMFG, LieutenantEddy. say it again..

It was the 90's (* Can't touch this.. tummm tummtumum..* ) ...

And hell.. what a great time for comics!! great arcs... McFarlane, etc...

Never like the gold age with FF and John Byrne... but great anyways!
