I’m not particularly impressed. The Apunkalyptic Suit is kind of cool, but it’s not worth forking out $10 for. Now, if there were Marvel Zombies skins in there, I’d put my money down straight away.

I don’t think these suits are worth it. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has 60+ suits, including colour variants, which is plenty to be going on with. And the skill points, that’s not a big draw for me either.

But that’s just my opinion. What you should do is take a look at those suits above. If you’re immediately struck by how awesome they are, go ahead and buy or upgrade to the Deluxe Edition of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. But if your reaction is more along the lines of “Meh..”, then don’t bother.

And that’s what you need to know about whether Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s Deluxe Edition is worth buying or upgrading for.
