3. Perfect Hit - Marvel's Spider-man

Marvel's Spider-man, much like the Batman games, features a combat system that relies on you being quick on your feet. Again, like Bat's, Spidey also has an arsenal of gadgets and takedowns he can use too.

Whilst these come at a cost to use, they are replenished by the focus meter. This gauge allows Spider-man to use the different abilities his variety of suits grant, or single hit takedowns on enemies, even as far as to restore health when needed.

How does this get replenished, you might be wondering? Why, by hitting people, of course. Yet whilst it is essential, it can be a bit of a slow burn, especially in times of crisis. However, help is at hand with the Perfect Hit ability: time your hits right and not only adds a double hit to your combo meter, but fills the focus meter up quicker too.

This in turn means our web-slinging hero can use takedowns quicker, or suit abilities in a pinch, or have his health replenished that we bit quicker. Just time those strikes right and you're golden.
