Well, now that Spiderman Demo has been released for the PC, has anyone played it yet?

The game is quite good and it really feels like playin like the real thing.

But it seem to face the same problem as Tomb Raider.
The automatic camera change annoys the heck out of me.
I cant see the enemy cause the camera angle moves away from him and when you move forward, the camera angle changes, so the moment it changes you have to press the back button in order to go forward and all.

So does anyone have any idea of a better way to play this game?
As in, any ideas on making the camera angle easier to navigate?


For anyone that dont know yet, you can get the demo off

www.3dfiles.com or Zdnet, or Activision's own site.

I prefer you use 3dfiles and then use the link from there to d/l direct off Activision, cause Zdnet is the slowest thing in the world.

Also check out Red Faction demo. In this game if you want to get from point A to pont B and there is a wall in your way, all you do is shoot the wall with rocket launcher and walk through. :)

Well...almost :)

Specific walls can be blown away. So it kind of takes the fun out of it for me at least.

I played it for a while. I didn't like it much. It looks like it has promise, but the play control just absolutely sucks. Its like they took a stripped down version of the Oni engine and made it suck swollen monkey testicals. Which is unfortunate, because the game really has promise. I hope that they change the control engine before they release it. Using the mouse for stuff would be a BIG plus in my book.

It's not a PC game, this thing was made for the console and should really stay there, don't bother getting it unless you like spiderman and have a gamepad!
