Gameloft just issued a press release sharing their newest game that will be a tie-in to the Amazing Spider-Man movie that is coming out this summer. It's called, amazingly enough, "Amazing Spider-Man." The press release doesn't give any release date details, but the film will debut on July 3rd, so it should come out pretty soon. Sometimes these movie tie-in games are pretty awful, but this one could be one of the few exceptions. Gameloft had great success with their previous Spider-Man game, Spider-Man: Total Mayhem. Here's the full press release:
