Editorial Reviews :
Spider-Man: The Movie brings your friendly neighborhood web slinger to life with engrossing realism, proving that a superhero game of such complex nature can be achieved with nearly flawless and nonintrusive gameplay. Be it wandering the city's environs in search of villains or just checking out your surroundings by web-swinging high above them, you truly can do whatever Spider-Man can. It's all here: high-flying aerial battles, the ability to web up and yank your enemies close for pummeling, and the capacity for crawling or web-zipping up, down, and over any surface--and that's just for starters. All in all, this is one involved game that does not fail to live up to the hype.
The game parallels the motion picture's story line, steering you through a progression of challenges that begins with the hunt for Uncle Ben's murderer, and ends with a final showdown with the Green Goblin. You begin as Peter Parker dressed in his wrestling costume and must defeat a variety of thugs throughout each level before advancing to the next set of challenges. The game gets progressively tougher as you encounter, in turn, Shocker, the Vulture, Scorpion, and, of course, the Green Goblin.
Visually, Spider-Man is a treat: cityscapes unfold in realistic detail and are enhanced by sunlight shining between buildings; cutscenes offer seamless animation; interiors are painstakingly re-created; and Spider-Man and his enemies are well rendered, moving about the screen in clean fashion. As an added bonus, most characters are voiced by their movie counterparts, and the training mode features the sarcastic wit of Evil Dead star Bruce Campbell.
Buyer Reviews :
I really loved the movie and the pictures I've seen of this game looked great so I rented it. I was very pleased with what came out of it. I didn't play the other Spider-man games so this was a totally new experience for me. The graphics in this game are beautiful. Swinging through the city and climbing on buildings is wonderful. The busy streets below is a great touch. Everything is highly detailed. The only thing I don't like about the graphics is the character models. The game developers didn't seem to have put much time into it. They're pretty stiff and lifeless. Also, there are dark areas in this game where it's hard to see just about everything that is around you. It helps to make your TV screen brighter. The control in this game is pretty good. I was worried that it would be too difficult and frustrating but it seems pretty solid. I picked up all of Spidey's moves very easily. The sound in the game is pretty good. Tobey's voice is a little flat and boring but that's just his personality. The music and other acting is pretty good. Overall this game is not just a rental but would be a good buy for any gamer.
