    Spider-Man 3, while not a radical departure from the excellent foundation laid by its prequel, will amaze Spider-Man and action games fans alike. The sequel fixes the major complaints of the first game (generally the repetitive nature of side missions) and polishes everything up.
  2. GameZone

    Spider-man 3 doesn’t differentiate much from its predecessor in terms of combat, but the new God of War-esque minigames are a nice touch. The mission structure is also nicely laid out, not too linear but conducive to the film’s plot.

    Spider-Man 3 certainly has its enjoyable moments, but camera issues and repetitive combat keep it from reaching its full potential.
  4. Armchair Empire

    The main components of the Spider-Man 3 – the fighting, the webslinging in a wide-open environment, lots of villains – are spot on but most everything else just feels somewhat incomplete or at least unpolished, particularly the story.
  5. Eurogamer

    And if the button-mashing, combat-heavy missions aren't underwhelming enough, or the under-use of web swinging doesn't deliver enough disappointment, then the often-iffy technical side of the game rounds off a less-than-stellar package.
  6. My Gamer
    60
    As a licensed game, Spiderman 3 is exceptional, but its problems and shortcomings stop it from being a notable game altogether.
  7. Edge Magazine
    30
    The frequent glitches and pop-up testify to a lack of preparation, and a question has to be asked about what exactly Treyarch has been doing for the past two years. [July 2007, p.89]

    Miles better than that stupid Batman clone called Amazing Spider-Man. The web swinging is great, you can reach ridiculous speeds like over 200Miles better than that stupid Batman clone called Amazing Spider-Man. The web swinging is great, you can reach ridiculous speeds like over 200 miles/hour. Great combat system with lots of combos, special attacks and web attacks. You can yank an enemy in the air and use him as a missile, pile-driving him into the ground and sending other enemies flying. Side missions will make you punch yourself in the face from the nail-biting difficulty, and that's a good thing.… Expand

    Much better than the movie! Great swinging and combat, love the Gothic Lolitas, super cool Options Screens and UI, beautiful city - what Much better than the movie! Great swinging and combat, love the Gothic Lolitas, super cool Options Screens and UI, beautiful city - what Superman wanted to be but wasn't! It left me wanting more. The cinematic brawls and bomb defusing mini-games were much needed additions to the game-play and the Scorpion Mind Control mini-game was the best! The only criticism was that the cinematic cut scenes were trying to be next-gen but actually looked worse then the ones on SM2. And I wish the city and the environments in general were destructible, but that is a minor criticism. Keep up the good work Treyarch and Activision!… Expand

    Fantastic game. Completly beats the first 2 instalements and adds so much more to the genre. The city is much bigger than spiderman 2, Fantastic game. Completly beats the first 2 instalements and adds so much more to the genre. The city is much bigger than spiderman 2, including sewers and subway systems, many new villians that deepen the gameplay significantly along with improved graphics, areobatic physics and bomb disposal. There is plenty to do even when you'v finished the main story including skyscraper tokens to collect, freefall challenges and races to compete in. A very enjoyable game overall.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Okay so right off the bat this is a huge step down for spider-man 2 first of all the characters look like there something out of a gmod or sfm and the game has about 25% to do with the movie the other 75% has to do with other stuff like gangs and other villains like lizard, rhino, scorpion, kingpin and a few more. The swinging is weird but it can be fun. There can be a lot of bugs and don't even get me started on the quick time events, I like the spider sense thing were like in the lizard mission were you find the lizard tracks. Spider-man looks so weird when he runs too. Okay but Spider-man 3 for the xbox 360 is just okay I mean at least it is not superman 64.… Expand
