Having not grown up playing this title I can say that while the game didn't have me laughing, it had me chuckling throughout. I feel as though most of its charm is helped by it's N64 graphics and styling. It's not the best platformer, and defiantly not a good shooter, but it's a very solid parody title that doesn't overstay its welcome.
Overall I had a fun time and would recommend.

Web swinging as Spider-Man is as entertaining as usual and Venom has moments. But in the end I was severely underwhelmed by it's clunky gameplay, repetitive tasks and stylistic but loud cutscene design. Your mileage may vary based on your love for the Ultimate comics universe this title is based on but the story is also a weaker affair compared to other Spider-Man video games.
Ultimately by the end of it I was more than comfortable hanging up my web-shooters.

First Monster Hunter game I have played and have been blown away with how incredible my time has been with it. It has certainly given me a passing interest in other games in the series but I feel like nothing will hit me like this title did on a blind playthrough.
This was a nice surprise. I've had this game on my shelf for awhile but never actually booted it up. It was surprisingly deep from a gameplay perspective due to the variety of guns. The main enemy the Chimera were threatening and I found the difficulty fair but challenging on the normal setting. The narrative was super weak and the controls were pretty clunky but overall I enjoyed my time with it.

Those bastards got me to like a Musou game.

Honestly the only thing keeping this game from being my favorite in the Arkham series is them just doing Jason Todd again when I was legitimately excited for the Arkham Knight to be an original character. I like just about everything else this game has.
Scarecrow was an upgrade, the Batmobile was fun to control, and it felt like a true ending for the Arkham Batman story. Is it Perfect? No, but that doesn't stop it from being excellent.

Suffers from unnecessary prequel syndrome.

While I prefer the atmosphere of the first game more, I recognize that this is the superior experience with all it improves.
There is valid reasons why this game is considered the bar when it comes to great superhero video games.

My rating is entirely bias. I have played this game so many times to the point where I feel like it was made for me. It came out when I was 5 years old, at this point my entire personality had become loving Spider-Man.
This on top of releasing around the time of the Tobey Maguire movies made this a must play title in my home. This game is fun Spider-Man fan service, HAS THE BEST VERSION OF VENOM EVER, tons of extras for the time that were narrated my Stan Lee.
Admittedly I have never played the sequel and am kind of scared to due to how highly I rate this title. It is the top of my pile of shame.
I know this game isn't perfect for a lot of people but this game makes my brain happy and that is why I give it 5 stars.

Lot's to love about this title, but the added characters don't play as well as you'd wish.
Falls under that category of a perfect sequel.

A wonderful start to a quality 3D platform trilogy.
