But using the good old X, square, circle and triangle just feels so much better, and you can access a secondary set of moves by holding L2. In the PC the moves were attached to A, S, D, F, G and H on the keyboard. I like playing consoles better than PC, I grew up on PlayStation, and a good Duelshock feels right in my hands. You can assign which attacks you want to which slots, which makes it nice and easy. Now, he’s got his own little power plant, and his goons! They also changed the Venom fight, not drastically, but, well, Alistair Smythe used to be in the level and now he’s not… The Shocker and Doc Ock fights are basically the same. For instance, Electro would show up at random times and places in the PC version, and you and a group of other players would have to box him in and beat him.

It’s a bit more streamlined for consoles. But I must say, they’ve definitely changed the level up. I’ve been through this mission quite a few times, having been on the game for so long. We played through the Hell’s Kitchen level, where you’ve got to fight Venom, Electro, Shocker, and Doc Ock, in an attempt to secure the Tablet of Life and Time. It’s like when we played Ultimate Alliance back in the day, and it’s way more fun to run around these levels with a friend than it is doing it by your lonesome. I am a big fan of the couch co-op they added, which for obvious reasons couldn’t be done on PC. He’s a DC fan, and literally doesn’t like any Marvel hero except for Widow, so that’s fine. I was playing on PS4 with my brother playing as Black Widow. He’s my favorite hero and, after 4 years of playing him in the PC version, I have a pretty good idea of what he can do. So I played around with Spider-Man, who I bought the character pack for in the beta. So, with that in mind, I’m going to talk about it! They’ve been in beta on consoles for about a month (which I also played), but now that they’ve fully launched, I’m going to assume that this is the most perfect version of the game they were after for this date.

Actually, I started playing Marvel Heroes back in 2013 in the PC beta, but yesterday was the official console launch. Don’t worry, I’ll try and keep it simple. If you are not fluent, you may get a little lost. WARNING: This post contains ‘gamer lingo’, words like XP and gear and beta.
