Alternate Timeline: Sloan travels back to the mid-1970s, resulting in both 2099 and Amazing's world existing in an alternate timeline where Peter works for Alchemax, 2099 is an even worse dystopian future, and Peter Parker is the CEO of Alchemax-kept alive by anti-aging drugs. There's also no psychotic future Peter and it's the Rhino who fuses with Doc Ock and Sloan to make Atrocity. Additionally, the plot also features more villains, so Peter meets 2099 versions of Overdrive, Big Wheel, and Arcade, while Miguel deals with the Shocker, Menace, and helping the real Black Cat (as opposed to Peter dealing with a clone). The DS version is almost completely different, as while part of the plot still involves stopping Sloan's plan, the part about preventing Peter's death is removed, so it's solely about stopping Sloan. Interestingly, the " Temporal Paradox" move pulls up flickering images of what seem to be Mary Jane and May Parker.
However, this may still be the case in the regular timeline as Peter is seen trying to arrange a date with her before history changed.
Justified in the altered timeline that Sloan's changes happened well before they even got together, which changed their whole history. Elements from the Brand New Day era of the comics are used however (such as Anti-Venom). Octopus, and 616's One More Day as it has Mary Jane still in a relationship with Peter (whether they're married or not, like their pre-OMD selves, is not explained).
If the events present in the story are any indication, then Edge of Time seems to be ignoring Marvel 2099's continuity as it was established Peter Parker was killed by Dr. All There in the Manual: The backstories of new characters like Walker Sloan, Black Cat 2099 and the CEO are all on their figures in the bonus gallery. Added Alliterative Appeal: The Achievement/Trophy names have noticeable alliteration to them. #Spider man edge of time pc ign series#
Actor Allusion: Beyond the fact that both Miguel and Peter are voiced by two former Spider-Man voice actors, Miguel looks similar to Peter from Spider-Man: The Animated Series and Peter looks like Peter from The Spectacular Spider-Man underneath their masks. Spider-Man: Edge of Time provides examples of the following tropes:
Spidey 2099, having gained wind of this plot, learns that a key factor is the death of Amazing Spidey and devises a way to communicate with Amazing Spider-Man to help stop Sloan. This causes Alchemax to become an even- more mega Mega-Corp which has managed to Take Over the World. The plot kicks off when Alchemax scientist Walker Sloan travels back to modern-day New York and uses his future tech to found Alchemax decades ahead of when it was supposed to be established. It featured all-new "cause-and-effect" gameplay, where choices and actions can have unintended outcomes on the Spider-Man in the opposite timeline, and a storyline written by Peter David, co-creator of Spider-Man 2099. In the game, players control both the Amazing Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099 in two connected timelines that follow the untimely death of Peter Parker. Spider-Man: Edge of Time is a 2011 video game made by Beenox and published by Activision, and is the second game produced by the studios to be based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man (following on from their work on Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions).
