    A vibrant, eye-popping superhero disc that has more style, wit and compelling gameplay in its first 10 minutes than most games have in their entirety.

    Though the game isn't perfect, the addicting story line and amazing presentation are definitely welcomed. If Treyarch had kept the bigger city and more advanced web swinging techniques, Ultimate Spider-Man would have been the definitive Spider-Man game.

    Despite its noticeable drawbacks, however, Ultimate Spider-Man does manage to offer a thrilling blend of comic book and video game action. The way that the game utilizes modern technology to bring comic book characters to life is superb, and so is the fantasy world created by Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley.

    I hate video games, tried the PS2, bought over a dozen games, gave it all away... Installed Utimate Spider-Man on my company PC, with the Logitech Dual Action controller....and haven't been able to stop playing! This video game really not only brings you back into the comic book, it brings you to NewYork and turns you into the hero you admired growing-up as a small boy. If you haven't played this game yet - go out buy it and become the Ultimate Spider-Man!!!! A total 10 out of 10, this is more than just a video game it's an experience of a lifetime..... I've experienced the thrills of Skydiving, but never before have I gotten to fly through an entire city, get ready to run, jump, swing and let go of all fears.… Expand

    The PC version is exceptional due to the option to choose higher resolutions and the choice of playing with your average keyboard/mouse configuration (mediocre) and the gamepad (great). All the other console versions suck a major @$$, screw them unless you don't own a PC.… Expand

    Amazing game, all too short. A credit to cell shade graphics.
