Spider-Man: Edge of Time: Difference between revisions

Line 45:

* [[Crossover]]: A "truer" crossover than [[Spider Man Shattered Dimensions|the previous game]], the two Spider-Men are in direct contact with each other, their timelimes are "bleeding" together, and they each even spend a couple of levels in each others timeline. They still don't spend a lot of time in the same timeline simultaneously, though...

* [[Cyberpunk]]: 2099

* [[Damn You Muscle Memory]]: If you're used to the ''Shattered Dimensions'' controls, you might have some initial adjustment trouble with the Wii version. Thankfully, [[The Dev Team Thinks of Everything]] and you can switch to the previous game's controls.

* [[Damn You, Muscle Memory!]]: If you're used to the ''Shattered Dimensions'' controls, you might have some initial adjustment trouble with the Wii version. Thankfully, [[The Dev Team Thinks of Everything]] and you can switch to the previous game's controls.

* [[Darker and Edgier]]: While [[Spider Man Shattered Dimensions|the previous game]] had some dark moments, this game amps it up with a generally darker tone and more immediate threats of death and action consequences.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Both Spider-Men bring this in full force.

Line 65:

* [[Future Slang]]: The all-purpose swear word "shock".

* [[Hopeless Boss Fight]]: The first boss, Anti-Venom. {{spoiler|For Amazing Spider-Man. Spider-Man 2099 has better luck.}}

* [[Hope Spot]]: Amazing's battle with Anti-Venom begins like a normal boss fight and Amazing even tosses him through a door. {{spoiler|Then Anti-Venom nullifies his powers bringing an even fight into a [[No Holds Barred Beatdown]].}}

* [[Hope Spot]]: Amazing's battle with Anti-Venom begins like a normal boss fight and Amazing even tosses him through a door. {{spoiler|Then Anti-Venom nullifies his powers bringing an even fight into a [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]].}}

* [["I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight]]: {{spoiler|Spider-Man tries this on Anti-Venom after learning about the control chips. It doesn't entirely work, but it does get Brock to fight their influence long enough to keep Spider-Man from getting killed right away.}}

* [[Ironic Echo]]: Tends to be exchanged between the two Spider-Men, such as "do better than your best!".

Line 85:

* [[Old Save Bonus]]: If you have a ''[[Spider Man Shattered Dimensions|Shattered Dimensions]]'' save file on the console when you boot up ''Edge of Time'', the game unlocks 10 (8, if you own a Wii) alternate costumes for the player to use.

* [[One-Winged Angel]]: {{spoiler|After Anti-Venom gains control of himself, he proceeds to attack Walker Sloan. Sloan runs to the time portal while Doc Ock is repairing it, and all three are tossed into the unstable portal. Out comes Atrocity, a monstrous combination of the three, similar to Monster Ock in the [[PS 1]] game.}}

* [[Orange Blue Contrast]]: Pictured above in the poster, also [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIsDwhRWK1k all over the trailer]. It seems blue represents the future, and orange the present. If so, prepare to see a lot of this trope.

* [[The Password Is Always Swordfish]]: Subverted when Amazing Spider-Man tries to use Spider-Man 2099's password, which is just "Lyla", to access Alchemax's archives and it doesn't work. It's then play straight when Spidey grumbles that he wishes it could just grant him access and it does.

** {{spoiler|And here lies a bit of Fridge Brilliance: WHY do you think the archive lets Peter Parker have the access he asked for?}}

* [[Powered Armor]]/[[Spider Tank]]: {{spoiler|Peter Parker 2099 pilots one of these during the final battle. Amazing Spider-Man speculates that Peter's powers have deteriorated over time, making the suit a necessity.}}

* [[Ripple Effect Proof Memory]]: Spider-Man 2099 gains this due to being in the time portal just after Walter went back in time. Amazing Spider-Man, of course, doesn't have this benefit.

* [[Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory]]: Spider-Man 2099 gains this due to being in the time portal just after Walter went back in time. Amazing Spider-Man, of course, doesn't have this benefit.

* [[Really 700 Years Old]]: Black Cat 2099 was given an anti-aging drug, resulting in her looking younger than she really is. {{spoiler|Same goes for Evil Peter.}}

* [[Rule of Three]]: Lampshaded when Amazing Spider-Man has to retrieve three time gate parts, each controlled by three consoles.

Line 99:

* [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong]]: The Spider-Man of the year 2099 ''is'' trying to prevent the death of the present day Spider-Man...

** {{spoiler|It's also the motive of the true [[Big Bad]], Peter Parker's future self (the CEO of Alchemax in 2099), who wants to go back in time to fix all of the mistakes he made in the past.}}

* [[Shout Out]]: Over the game, the two Spider-Man make references to [[Captain America]], the [[X-Men]], [[Iron Man]] and the [[Fantastic Four]].

* [[Sir Swearsalot]]: Spidey 2099 has kept his habit of saying "Shock" from [[Spider Man Shattered Dimensions|the last game.]]

* [[Stripperiffic]]: Black Cat 2099's outfit, with a cleavage opening right down to her belly button.

Line 108:

** The funny thing is, Spidey 2099 responds to each line with "of course I did" or "oh wait, I didn't," which actually causes Peter to stop and go "wait, what?"

* [[Teleporting Keycard Squad]]: Usually literally.

* [[Teeth Clenched Teamwork]]: Amazing Spider-Man isn't immediately inclined to believe some guy from the future claiming he's going to die because of his new workplace and Spider-Man 2099 is rather frustrated by his predecessor's inability to stay out of life-threatening situations. They get along better as the game progresses.

* [[Temporal Paradox]]: Surprisingly, it's used as a ''special move'' in this game.

* [[Time Travel Tense Trouble]]
