Spidey got drunk and this happened....

Date of Review: Aug 27, 2009

The Bottom Line:  Torture device.
LOL, Im a big fan of videos games since I was little, so when this Spiderman came out, I was all hoppeded up for this game, big dissapointment, that is what it is.

Controlls:
Takes a couple of minutes to get a hang on it so I will explain some basic controlls for this game, A is for jumping, press it again for your old-school Double Jump, B is for punches, press it 3 times and you get your simple 3-hit combo, X is for kicks, again, press it 3 times for a kick combo, Y is for Web-Shot to trap some bad guys into your web and making them unable to move for a while, press Up and Y to shotout a ball of web to hit your enemy, L is for getting over to some place quickly by attaching a web to a nearby wall and fly over there, press Y while doing this and you will be a missile of web, and finally we have the R, it lets you swing around in mid-air, and yes, your web dosen't grab into anything, so you will wonder how is he able to fly.

Story:
Peter got his powers by getting bitten by a spider, then he fights with his uncle, and he fights with some guy and wins, but the promoter cheats on him and dosen't give him his whole money (scumbag), and while he is leaving, a guy robs the promoter and Peter lets him get away (What the hell?), then the guy who let away kills his uncle.

Gameplay:
So you play around knocking out everyone you find until you end the mission, yes, this game is based on scenarios. After a couples of scenarios, you need to fight a boss which is sometimes hard to do depending on the difficulty. You can choose what difficulty you wanna play this game. Easy is for new guys who din't know that this game was a dissapointment, Normal is for guys who has a little experience and had nothing to do but to play this game, Hero is for veterans who SERIOUSLY had nothing to do for a day, Super Hero is for people who really think they are bada$$ and think they will get over this game withouth dying once.
Bad guys range from your typical street gangers to proffecional criminals. Sometimes they will come to you and try to knock you out, or sometimes they may try to shoot you with some handguns, which I recommend that you take out first, cause in Hero and Super Hero difficulties, they tend to kill you reall quickly. Other enemies are Wasps that can easly be destroyed but since they are small and in groups, they tend to be annoying and lethal. Other enemies are Super-Robots that can punch you and shoot you with lasers or even worse, rockets and you know, don't handle them at Hero or Super Hero.
As you go around kicking some butt, you will find some power-ups in your way, they tend to look like spider icons and here are their effects. Red Spider replishes some health, Blue Spider replishes some of your web, and Golden Spider gets you a new combo.
Speaking of combos, they vary a lot in this game, some are simple like pressing A, B and Y. You may want to find this new combos to lighten up your gameplay as you walk around kicking everything that moves.
Some times missions vary from sneaking up into a place, to chasing some bad guys before they get away, to flying trough roof-tops, Bosses, and your typical beat-them up style. If you feel like it, you could just run around in sneaking mission but I hardly recommend it if youre on Hero or Super Hero difficulties. Chasings are like Roof-Tops, except you dont wanna lose sight of them as the upper-bar tells you how close youre to them. Beat-Them up is basically move and killing everything you find and rescuing some people along the way until you finish. Bosses well.....duh, kill the boss before it kills you.

Music:
It is nice at first but tends to get repetitive. They used some of the movies and cartoon's soundtracks. Sound of footsteps is kinda tardy, but other effects like punches, kicks, shooting tend to be great.

Graphics:
They are not really that great. Sometimes you seem like made of polygons, if this where a N64 this could had been a cool graphic, which is not.

Replay-Value:
Not much I can say here, except there are some secrets like different clothing and guess what........to play as the Green Goblin itself!!!
Also mini-games are fun to play with, also there is a password finder, oh ok, I will put the cheatcodes in here. No CAPS sensitive.
GIRLNEXTDOOR: Play as Mary-Jane
ORGANICWEBBING: Unlimited Web
ARACHNID: Have everything unlocked except Mini-games and Secrets

Overall:
Like I said, is not worth it to buy this game at full price, if you can, try to buy it at disccount, or have it borrowed.
You may have some fun with it for a while, but after that, it gets really dull and boring to play.
If you have this game, I recommend this cheats I putted for some extra fun that will last like 3 minutes.
This happens after you try make a popular movie into a video-game and put random stuff in i.
