Spider-Man, Spider-Man...

Well, this game is good. The graphics are good and it is fun. But the down side is the camera. I found it too confusing to control Spidey. I prefer the control of Halo or Max Payne to this game, which reminds me dreadfully of Resident Evil's.

If you like Spider-Man get this game. The animation is good and the extras to unlock are fun...a little for the adult minded, but fun indeed.

I found that my TV had too much red and had a halo like haze around him, but after some adjustments I was able to be happy about it.

My son and I picked up our copy the day it came out. (4/17/2002) It's overall a very good game with impressive graphics. The actual gameplay takes about 15 minutes to get used to. Once you do you will notice it's easy to move around and fight. I was concerned how they would handle the actual webslinging but it is very well done. Some of the reflections on the buildings are just amazing.

It is rated 'E' and has no objectionable content for younger players other then beating up on the bad guys. In typical Spiderman fashion, no one really dies but rather just disappears. There is also no blood splattering from what I can tell.

I would suggest Spiderman to anyone that likes an action adventure game. It's a good buy.

A Great Game!!!!

You been bit by the spiderman bug yet? By chance, you have. You have seen the incredible movie, and you want more. Dont use this game as the cure.

Graphics: 7.5

-With the graphics being so-so, and being that there is not much of a difference between the PS2 version and XBOX version, it only gets a 7.5. Vertex shading is awful, but that gets saved by the dazzling effects of the ground when you are gracefully flying in the air. Another problem was that the web you string goes no where in the air. By that, I mean that the web sticks to nothing. Poor detail is the count for this, and THIS gets saved by the excellent animation, which is better than the movie's animation by far! The last problem is that some inside areas are dark, and i mean DARK! In the 2nd mission it is nearly impossible to see!

Gameplay: 7.1

-Bla bla bla, another 3rd person beat-em-up game. Woah, you fly in the air as spiderman?! Cool! The game has pretty neat twists in the story, as well as added on features, not showed in the movie, but the gameplay is not as good. The controls are downright impossible to get used to, meaning this game has a high learning curve for controlls. The game isn't much fun just in the sense of it. This game really did not get me to play for very long. Beating people up is too easy, and you almost NEVER run out of web, making it as easy as a movement of the joystick and one or two button presses. Then again, sometimes it is so hard that you need to make too many button presses, making your fingers worn out by all the pressing. Then again, it is mostly just an easy kids game.

Replay Value: 1.0

-Replay value? THERE IS NONE!!! YOU BEAT THE GAME THAT IS IT!!! There is the tutorial, a few practices and the game. You play those you are DONE!

Sound: 4.0

-This game has terrible music that you hardly even realize, and when you hit somebody it sounds like an explosion. When you sling your web, it sounds like somebody blew a whistle while at the same time took a rubber band and slided it against a window. Need I say more?! Terrible voiceovers make this game's sound even worse.

General Value: 7.0

-This game is for spiderman fans only. Because of awful graphics, terrible voiceovers, impossible AND easy gameplay, and terrible sound, this game makes a worthless attempt to steal your money. No replay value makes this a one-time game. This game shows that with some games, "instead of no pain, no gain", its "Lots of pain, no gain".

Overall: 6.65

-This game is for spidey fans only. If you want to cure the spider bug's bite, then just buy a poster of Mary-Jane and gaze at her terribly beautiful body and wet t-shirt dirrectly from the movie.

Awsome for the first two days. . .

This game is original and has great fights and so on, but it gets frustratingly difficult and there is no multiplayer. It gets old too fast. Don't get me wrong though, its fun, but it feels empty and there is no much replay value in the campaign. Sometimes missions are more of a chore than having fun.

Too hard but its an ok game.

Well this game is ok, but there are several cons. You see I got this game and started playing for hours, but it kind of got boring and hard, so I got tired of it and quit playing. I reccomend you to get this if you like hard challenging games, because this one is. But I dont like challenging games so im planning to sell it.

Nice, but....

Visually attractive, the storyline is loyal to the movie plus some adds to it like the scorpion chracter. Cool combo moves and nice backgrounds. Ok, here's the dilemma, when Spiderman is searching for the bad guys, where the hell is the web hanging from? a cloud? a helicopter that follows Spiderman wherever he goes? I know it's just a little detail but it is very notable. Besides that, the game itself is good but it gets from very easy to very hard from one level to the next. Buy it if you liked the movie, rent it if you want to distract yourself a while.

A little too much hype for this game

I am a big fan of spiderman. The movie was cool, but a little boring. The game itself follows this pattern. Exploring all of spideys web powers is extremely fun, such as web gloves, or impact webbing, but the game is tedious. The game is also pretty hard, even on normal. the computer surrounds you with enemies that are stupid, but have high life, and are hard to take down.
The graphics on the xbox are decent, but compared to games like Halo and Rallisport Challenge, it really doesn't match up. The outdoor levels in the city are fun, but inside buildings, the game is boring.
If you really like spiderman, by all means get it. If you don't, rent it, check it out first.
