    Being able to jump into the game, and back out, without losing any progress or exit to the main menu makes this especially family friendly.

    It may not be worth much more than a rental, but it'll be one of the most satisfying rentals you play in a long time.

    Some flashy action, a playful sense of humor, and a clean visual style bring this otherwise straightforward beat-'em-up to life.

    The game is obviously geared most toward the younger set, but even kids like a bit of challenge, right?

    While being directed at a younger crowd, the combat is innovative, the gameplay is (slightly repetitive, but even still) enjoyable, and the storyline is halfway decent. Definitely worth checking out. … Expand

    Spider-Man: Friend or Foe may be aimed at younger audiences but is a great if simple brawler, sound effects are ok and voice acting is passable, but the controls are great and easy to access, the graphics are great and one of the better looking games on the Playstation 2, it has some great co-op options and some cool unlockable characters, it has some pretty good versus options, all in all it's a highly enjoyable brawler.… Expand
