A new look at the combat explores just how Spidey will dispatch gangs of criminals with all the grace and finesse of an experienced wall-crawler. >Experience is the key, because as creative director Bryan Intihar explained to Game Informer, this is a version of Spider-Man who has been doing this for years. That makes him a master of improvisation, and Insomniac wanted to capture that by giving him a wide array of abilities that players can fluidly swap between and mix together. Those include melee, web abilities, and gadgets. While you can jump into a gaggle of goons and start swinging your fists, you'll also often have the option of taking a few out quietly. The Game Informer video shows a flexible system of using abilities in different ways and in different combinations.
