The Amazing Spider-Man's lead game designer has shared some gameplay info with rabid fans via the game's official Facebook page.
When asked about any new abilities, the dev spoke of a new mechanic called "Web Rush".
"We introduce an all-new gameplay mechanic called the Web Rush, which gives players real-time navigational and combat choices," they said. "Web Rush can be triggered on the fly, at any moment and immediately presents you with a variety of situational choices, letting you pull off Spidey's signature moves like never before."
Activision recently released a single new screenshot for The Amazing Spider-Man which, yet again, drew comparisons to EA's 3D platform title Mirror's Edge.

they can draw comparisons as much as they like it still won't be as good as mirrors edge

Spider-man games (to me) always suffer from the same issue;
Too much fluff, not enough web-swinging!!
Crappy fights, linear levels but then you get that oh-so-sweet free roam section and my Giddy machine gets set to overdrive! I'd be pretty happy with a "Spiderman's Weekend Off" where all you do is swing around picking up the dry-cleaning and other petty tasks as long as the area was big and detailed.
