 Keeps Getting Better! May 21, 2010
Thomas Milroy
I have owned and played just about every Spider-Man game ever made and this one is by far the best. Every time they make these games it gets a little bit better. There are more iconic animations, and even when you're making "mistakes" now, Spider-Man still looks cool. For instance, in Spider-Man 3 he would bump into walls and look like a fool, but now he runs on walls always instead of bumping into them, and feels like he has a lot more strength (more like the comic books). There are many improvements in that department so I won't list them all, but they are getting closer and closer to perfectly fluid animations 100% of the time. Great job in this one.
The black suit has always been my FAVORITE. In all of the past games most didn't even have the ability to use the black suit, and when they did it was really hard to get, or didn't really do anything special, and you were always kind of pushed to NOT use it... which was a terrible shame.
This game lets you use the black suit ALL the time and you can switch it on or off at any moment without even going into a menu, the way it should be! The black suit looks awesome, and has entirely different abilities when you're using it. You can switch between red and black between combos even if you like to get that crazy.
The battle mechanics have been completely enhanced. You can pull yourself into any enemy with your web non-stop in a beautiful display of aerial acrobatics as you lay waste to your foes in any plain you chose to fight on. The ground, the walls, or in the sky. All 3 are equally entertaining and provide so many dynamics that the fighting is only boring if you're choosing to make it that way by being repetitive. If you like only fighting on the ground, you can pull your enemies down there so you're not forced to fight on walls or in the air generally (but the new aerial fighting moves are an absolute blast!).
The hidden Tokens this time are a lot easier to find, and all they do is increase your web swinging speed and reach, and you don't have to get all of them to feel extremely godly in your distance and abilities.
There is only ONE tiny problem with this game. You can't do a web swing with both hands shooting a web out, (swing from left, to right, kind of like a monkey not quite letting go of the first branch before grasping the next)This is a very iconic way of web swinging and it is sad that it took a while to get it in these games, and now it's gone. I'm pretty sure it was Spider-Man 3 that finally got that in the game almost perfectly, so it is really odd to see that a feature was lost in this game. Over-all it is still a huge improvement in just about every other aspect compared to the predecessors(other than graphics but that is to be expected as they are pumping these games out faster than graphics and processors can get much better).
I think this game runs a little better than Spider-Man 3 because they want back to a more comic book style (not cartoon-like, or cell shading though) and it is not trying to do complex shading and reflections. In fact, there are absolutely no options to mess with the graphics other than resolution which is kind of odd. You certainly need one heck of a CPU to run it smoothly though. I have a really nice Intel Quad Core and an Nvidia GTX 295 and the FPS doesn't hold completely solid if you have the entire city in your field of view and you're zooming really fast. Still runs better than Spider-Man 3 though, and is perfectly smooth for me about 99% of the time.
If you enjoyed the other Spidey games, then this one is a major upgrade to the series!

Amazing Spider-man Game! July 20, 2009
Daniel J. Silva (Salt Lake City, UT)
I've kept up with the Spider-Man games that Activision has put out over the years, and this one really is the best. The new fighting engine just rocks! It's difficult enough to stay challenging, but not so difficult that you get sick of playing it (Spider-Man 3).
The only problem with the game is that it does lag very slightly because my computer hardware isn't a true gaming computer. If you want to play this, you need a high-end video card and at least a dual-core processor.
Overall, this game just rocks!
so awesome!!! July 14, 2009
Z.M. (Grass Valley, CA USA)
omg this game is awesome!!!!!! i love it...much better than any other spiderman game i've ever played...and the best part is that you can change between the black and red suit...anytime you want!!!
if you liked any other spiderman game...get this you'll really thank me!
ps. make sure you have the system to run it... i didn't have any problem running it on my system (windows vista, nvidia geforce 9300m GS 512mb, intel duel centrino processer, and 4gigs:) so if you have anything like that you shouldn't have any problem.
another spider's web! May 6, 2009
Romero vive (El Salvador)
Nice and a lot of fun on this great game, the only thing is that it seems like some movements are more likely for xbox 360 than PC controls. but still maybe with the patch some cut scenes and the part of the air camera will be fixed, other than that very good!
