The Amazing Spider-Man swings onto PC today

Watch out, here comes The Spider-Man, finally scuttling onto Windows PC today in the UK.

The Amazing Spider-Man came out on consoles on 29th June in Europe, receiving somewhat lukewarm reception, as I predicted and was subsequently chastised for in my hands-on preview. Eh-hem, Spidey is currently sitting at a 66 on Metacritic.

The game picks up where the film ends, introducing some classic villains, if not the tip-top ones, re-imagined for the new game.
