How did Uncle Ben die?

[BridgetFisher]

I noticed in the game at the start Uncle Ben dies while your walking home. Perter Parkers spider sense kicks in and he senses someone close to him is hurt, so he runs there and his uncle dies. What happened? His uncle had a heart attack? Theres no blood or anything and he isnt supposed to be spiderman yet so how did he get the spidersense to know someone was in danger? Also he blames another man who killed his uncle, but his uncle had a heart attack so I dont get how another man can be blamed for causing his uncle to have a heart attack im assuming.

Am I missing something (I don't have the game yet, I live in England)? Isn't Amazing Spider Man 2 game happening after the plot in the 2012 game, in which he already had super powers O_O? Or is the game moving the plot backwards for a moment?

In the Amazing Spiderman Movie Peter had already gotten his powers but was not spiderman yet. He was just learning to use them.
He goes to a convenience store to buy some milk. Two cents short. Ahole clerk says he can't take a penny because you have to spend a minimum amount to do so. "Company policy."
Guy comes up with some beer after that. Knocks it to the floor. Grabs the money. Tosses Peter the milk. Runs out.
Meanwhile Ben is looking for Peter after an arguement they had. Ignoring May's request to leave him alone. The clerk runs out the door saying to stop him. He (the robber) trips and drops his gun. Ben is walking down and sees him and tries to run to grab the gun. In the struggle he gets shot.

I watched the 1st movie. Let's make it clear, is this topic about the game or a movie?

This is about the game, but I can assure you I didnt see anyone running away, any guns, or any blood anywhere. Just uncle ben falls over im guessing because hes an old man and has a heart attack. now the story is about avenging his death, but I dont get why spiderman is blaming another man for causing uncle ben to have a heart attack.

The game runs parallel and occassionally overlaps with the movies. So the game revisted the scene from the first movie to explain Peter's motivation at the beginning of this game. So both. It's kinda' confusing until you learn where it does and doesn't tie in.

Edit: Just an additioal bit. It's been directly stated that the game kinda' ties in to the movie a little. The man he's looking for is the guy who shot him in the movie. I think they just didn't put any blood or anything in as it's a game they want kids to be able to play as well.

I'm still confused. As far as I remember from Amazing Spider Man movie from 2012, Uncle Ben dies. Amazing Spider Man game took place few months after the movie events, so Ben was already dead.
Now you're trying to tell me, that somehow he's still alive in Amazing Spider Man 2 game O_O?
How? Isn't Amazing Spider Man 2 game plot set after the events of the 1st game :/?

It goes back in order to set the basis of the story in this game. It then goes to Spiderman in the game saying 2 years later saying he's still searching for the killer.

[A Very Wet Frog]

the game intended to depict exactly what happened in the first movie. all that happened is they messed up with the game and did not show blood or the killer.

That's clearing everything for me now haha. Thanks Roanark ;D!
Can't wait to play it. Shame is though that it's releases Friday in the UK and I won't be able to play it till next Monday as I'm leaving London with friends for a weekend :P.
Anyways, a little off-top: Is the game any improvement over the 1st game :) (which I consider to be the best Spidey game in years)?

[Roanark]

I have yet to play it but I watched some gameplay. It's got some improvements but it seems to be pretty much a lot of the same of what the last one was. Enjoyable enough but nothing extraordinary.

To me, seeing that there's way more stealth moves and overall there's a bigger emphisize on stealth mechanics this time 'round, it is more than enough of an imrpovement to me ;).

To be honest, also, while I launched Amazing Spider Man back in 2012, I thought that it's a 1st game worth of "next-gen" name. On PC it still looks AMAZING haha.

Hmmm what im confused about is he already had his spiderman powers? So then some guy shot him people are saying even though there is no gun or blood. And I didnt see anyone running away but being spiderman he could have just webbed him id imagine.

Without suit and in front of everybody? That would be a nice one haha ;P.

I'm sorry but why are you playing this game if you have absolutely no idea what is going on ?

[bashscrazy]

Did you not hear a gun shot ? clearly it wasn't a heart attack. Maybe they just didn't add blood so it can be available for younger audiences.
