  1. The highlight of the graphics is undoubtedly the recreation of Manhattan. While it was impressive in Spider-Man 2, this sequel takes it to unprecedented heights.

    The best thing about playing Spider-Man 3? Without a doubt, the web slinging. Thanks to a tight control scheme and great level design, slinging around the virtual city is one of the game's great thrills.
  3. A buffed-up Central Park can't distract from some upsetting gameplay blunders. [July 2007, p.72]
  4. The city is not very alive, if you know what I mean. It looks like New York, but it doesn't feel anything like it.

    This is spider-man 2 totally revamped. Now better than ever. The game has totally been tweaked and corrected from the previous franchise and now it is the diffnitive spiderman game. A little frame rates but you can hardly notice. The stories are better and the game is longer what else can you want! Perfection? yeah right just get the game and try it out for yourself. It even better than the movie considering that thier is more plot. Expand

    This game isnt great but it is very good. it has great graphics, 10 great storylines, great button mashing sequences, great side missions and an imense free-flowing city. but i cant help but feel that there is something missing. when playing the game it doesnt feel solid and i am also angry at the fact that there are no scenes from the film as rewards. but dont let my review stop you from getting it as i am only listing the bad points. you will be missing out if you dont get it!!!

    The Spiderman character looks washed out. The main characters in the game look freakish. All the cars are the same model and citizens don9;t speak. I guess that's because they disappear into thin air at times. The combat system is ruined by the frustrating button mashing sequences. Activision stocks went down by 5% after this game was released for a reason...the game stinks. It's one of those games that tries to do too much and gets virtually nothing right. Even renting this game is a waste of money. Not worthy of the bargain bin. Expand
