Just got this today (in the UK). Amazon didn't dispatch it yesterday despite promise of launch day arrival so ended up cancelling and getting from Game in town for an extra fiver. Played it briefly and the resolution is pretty horrid and frame rate is poor, although it's not much of a surprise considering a Vita game card can't hold as much data (4GB max I think) as other consoles. I kinda like the bluetooth base for the game, as I'm able to take it to my shelves where all my figures are and put them into the game rather than move the figures to my console where they can get disorganised. I also hate having to get up to switch characters on the home console versions so the portability will be nice for when I'm just lying in bed playing it.
I'd only recommend this version of the game if you specifically want the black-suit Spider-Man figure, and/or can find benefit from the portability (though limited) and can deal with wibbley frame rates and resolution. In all fairness to it however, I believe it has all the content and compatibility of the console versions, and so it's nice to not be given a striped down version where some things can't be done on the Vita version. Personally, I'm going to try getting all the trophies, keep the Spider-Man figure, and then sell the game on.
