Pre-Order Amazing Spider-Man on Amazon, Play as Stan Lee
by May 9, 2012 @ 12:40 pm

The Amazing Spider-Man is scheduled for a June 26 launch across most major consoles and even a couple of handhelds. Now, the Spider-Man series of games hasn’t been all that great, but The Amazing Spider-Man actually looks like it might be the first entry in the franchise since Ultimate Spider-Man that’s actually worth caring about.
We won’t know for sure until the game actually launches, but so far, it looks pretty promising. To sweeten the deal more for fans of Marvel’s web-swinging hero, Amazon and GameStop have thrown in some enticing pre-order exclusives for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game.
If you decide to go with Amazon, you’ll get the Stan Lee Adventure Pack. This mission allows you to take the comic book icon across New York in search of some missing script pages. The best part: Stan Lee has freakin’ superpowers! Using spidey powers to swing across a massive city as one of the biggest names in all of comics? Sounds pretty cool!
If you instead pre-order The Amazing Spider-Man at GameStop, you’ll be treated to The Rhino Challenge, which lets you run amok as Rhino, destroying everything in your path. To be honest, both pre-order bonuses are fairly tame, but they still seem like neat little additions to what will hopefully be a good game.
