The Amazing Spiderman Hits Digital Platforms + DLC!

As of today, The Amazing Spiderman Videogame, created by Beenox, is available for digital download in North America on the Xbox Live Marketplace for 4800 Microsoft Points and on the Playstation Network for $59.99. Steam users will only have to pay $49.99 on Steam, including complete integration with Steam achievements. A Nintendo 3DS demo is also now available in the Nintendo eShop which if it's anything like the console versions you should definitely give it a try.

As well as bringing The Amazing Spiderman out for digital download, they are giving owners of the Amazing Spiderman an additional treat by bringing out a small collection of DLC, some of which was only available as pre-order bonuses, so it has been unavailable to people like me who forgot to pre-order so have been waiting patiently for such DLC's to be released. Well finally they are here and i'm going to tell you all about them.

First up is the Rhino Challenge Pack where you get to take control of the massive, genetically engineered villain Rhino and rampage around Manhattan in an exclusive gameplay challenge of pure destruction! As Rhino, you will be able to unleash his formidable powers to destroy anything and everything in his path in a timed event full of speed, combo streaks, and of course, a ton of things to break! Downloadable on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for Xbox 360 for 240 Microsoft Points, from the PlayStation Store for PlayStation 3 system and on Steam for $2.99.

Next is the Oscorp Search & Destroy Pack. In The Amazing Spider-Man video game, Spider-Man has his own smartphone to help navigate around Manhattan,which seriously comes in handy. It helps you locate missions and challenges and most importantly find bad guys to beat with your fists. With this pack, Spider-Man's smartphone will feature two mini-games inspired by classic arcade fun. Downloadable on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for Xbox 360 for 240 Microsoft Points, from the PlayStation Store for PlayStation 3 system and on Steam for $2.99.

This ones a new DLC that wasn't available even with a pre-order. The Lizard Rampage Pack allows you to take on the role of Dr. Connors' terrifying alter ego in a race against time. Go berserk through the streets using his devastating stomp attack and tail swipe to defeat Oscorp guards and earn mega points. Use his boost jump to bound great distances over the city. Destroy blast towers to buy yourself more time and delay Oscorp from releasing their cross-species containment blast across the city! This pack also includes the exclusive Vigilante Spider-Man Suit from the feature film, the suit Peter Parker dons to fight crime before developing his famous costume. Downloadable on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for Xbox 360 for 320 Microsoft Points, from the PlayStation Store for PlayStation 3 system and on Steam for $3.99. Available in North America today and will be available later in the year in Europe.

Finally, in my opinion the coolest DLC to ever see the light of day, the Stan Lee Adventure Pack. We've seen his cameos in most major Marvel films, now it's time for his video game debut. For the first time ever, fans will be able to play as the great Stan Lee himself in The Amazing Spider-Man video game. Players take on the role of Stan "The Man" Lee in his own special mission across Manhattan, borrowing abilities from his old pal Spider-Man as they collect pages of his latest script in a spectacular race around Manhattan. Stan's mission is of course punctuated with his witty banter that fans have come to know and love, and a special surprise waits for them at the end of the mission — after all, this year is Spider-Man's 50th anniversary! Downloadable on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for Xbox 360 for 320 Microsoft Points, from the PlayStation Store for PlayStation 3 system and on Steam for $3.99. Available in North America and Europe.

If you want all the DLC available for The Amazing Spiderman then all four content packs can be purchased together, with The Amazing Spiderman Bundle Pack, available through the PlayStation Store for PlayStation 3 system and on Steam for $9.99. Available in North America today, and available in Europe later this year.
