This review contains spoilers
Was excited to play this one because through all the streams I did of older Spider-Man games (since I'm trying to play all of his games) people kept mentioning this one as one of the absolute best ones.
Well it fits right in with most of the games: they're either awful or 'good,' with hardly any in-between and only the first PSX game being actually amazing.
Combat is good for the most part. You can switch between Red and Black suits for Spider-Man, they play different enough and each have a skill tree with some unique abilities. One of the best things about this game is the sheer variety in the enemies you fight and see.
The first 2/3 of the game are regular enemies, whole lot of different kind of them, then the Symbiots take over New York and you fight all kinds of Symbiote variations, from random Electro Symbiote enemies to Venom knockoffs and several others. Kept the gameplay interesting. The boss fights themselves were nothing special but the fact that you get to fight Symbiote Wolverine, Symbiote Electro, Symbiote Vulture was really fucking badass. By far the biggest highlight of the game for me. Wish Moon Knight and Luke Cage got black suits too, especially since concept art of Moon Knight Symbiote is in the credits. I also really enjoyed having a sort of 'morality' system where at several points of the game you choose to go with the Red suit choice or the Black suit choice. I went all Red with the intention of doing a 2nd playthrough and going all Black but the game didn't feel worthy of a 2nd playthrough by the time I was at the end of the game.
Here come the negatives. This is a ps3-ass ps3 game. Runs like shit, sub 20fps most of the time. Constant screen-tearing. Tons of stupid QTE, the fucking game ends on a QTE. and not on the boss fight, which btw was a really lame boss fight to end such a grand (in scale) game. The 2000+ collectibles are weird, like they couldn't think of anything else besides flooding the world with over two thousand little things to level up. They were pretty useless since I always felt like my health meter barely went up, and the game is really easy regardless. I'm not too bothered with this collectible, at least compared with the performance, but it was still an odd choice.
I had a fun time, stayed up late last night having a good time with it, but I felt like the last 10% of the game really soured me to drop it from an 8 to a 7/10.
See you on the next SM game, Spider-friends!

I love Spider-Mans confidence in this game.....
His girlfriend runs around the ENTIRE game with a handsome, well built, kind black man who is clearly trying to improve his community and help the underprivileged and Spider-Man is not in the LEAST bit concerned?
damn... thats some textbook white cis-het confidence!

Yo this game is baller af dude. The motion controls work great, the combat is snappy and flashy, but it also has an amazing sense of movement and flow. You can fight as you're web swinging, AND on walls.
It has a fun story that plays with the choice of being good or evil: it dosent actually matter, but the different cutscenes are welcome.
Mechanic wise it does a lot of the heavy lifting. It is a blast to play. A great Spidey game.

Хэй бобс, а вы помните про Spider-man: Web of Shadows?
Лучше бы не помнили ну раз вы читаете эту рецензию давайте немножко вспомним. Игра про Человека-паука с боевой системой ничуть не хуже, чем в Devil may cry, возможность менять костюмы Человека-паука в любой момент, темная история падения супергероя и Нью-йорка, камео таких героев как Росомаха, Люк Кейдж, Лунный рыцарь, Черная вдова и не забываемые адреналиновые босс файты с возможностью использовать весь арсенал Человека-паука, но есть одна проблема игра кал
