Spider-Man: Battle for New York (GameBoy Advance)

Spider-Man: Battle for New York allows gamers to take on the role of Spider-Man and one of his famed nemeses, Green Goblin, in an original storyline which builds upon their legendary comic book rivalry. For the first time in a handheld Spider-Man game, players can personalize their gaming experiences by choosing what abilities and powers to upgrade and when, such as Spider-Man’s web maneuvers or Green Goblin’s fire attacks, as they progress through the game. Playing as both good and evil, gamers will experience levels packed with frenzied action, in-depth combat and a host of unique super moves as they embark on the ultimate quest to save New York City from almost certain disaster.

Critic Reviews

45	IGN More swinging without restriction and less mediocre combat would have taken this game a lot further.
40	GameSpot Cruddy hit detection and poor hazard placement ruin this otherwise decent action romp.
37	Nintendojo Spider-Man: Battle for New York should have been a fun and easy to play title, but instead the game is frustrating, bland and difficult, despite short levels and simple tasks.
