First Impressions: Pixar's Brave & The Amazing Spider-Man video game

These are just my first thoughts on the new Pixar movie "Brave", and the new Spider-Man video game. Might do a review of these later. 


Brave:

• Animation is superb, one of Pixar's best (if not the best)
• Characters were enjoyable
• The story was well done, good dialogue between the characters
• Stirred up some emotions in me (not unlike Toy Story 3)

The Amazing Spider-Man (VG): 

• Very fun, feels like a thought-out Spider-Man game
• Open-world is probably the best yet as far as Spider-Man games go
• Despite none of the movie actors voice acting, the vocal cast is pretty good, Spidey sounds like Spidey
• Rogue gallery is made up of mostly C-list villains, but are changed enough to make them interesting
• Combat controls are similar to Batman: Arkham City, which fits Spider-Man nicely
• Story is pretty good, catches interest as well as "officially" being canon with the movie timeline

Not a bad day.
