    The game is good, very similar to the batman games. I bought at steam and have to much problem to play.
    My Radeon HD 7970 cant play with a decent fps rate. I have to change a directx file every time i want to play that game, is absurd!!!!

Но все миссии очень однообразны, про боссов в обще молчу, всего три босса припомню которые отличались от остальных (но в сайдквестах тоже встречаются боссы, так что кто хочет увидеть побольше злодеев - проходить обязательно). Прокачка в игре почти бесполезна, но к концу игры проходя все допы - прокачал всё. Про сюжет промолчу, мне не зашёл, но никогда не являлся фаном паука, по этому и судить его не стану.
    И моя рекомендация проходить игру на макс сложности, т.к. на сложностях ниже - игра становиться слишком простой. На прохождение со всеми допами ушло около 15 часов.
    Но на мой взгляд, из игр такого жанра и про супергероев победу одерживает почти любая часть бэтмена.    … Expand

    Unlike movie, i like this game. It's a fun, a bit repetitive, but interesting game. Story develops slow, but not without couple of pretty good twists, gameplay mechanic is stolen from Batman games, but whatever, it's a great game mechanic and it's fun to beat baddies. Game is pretty easy, that's why i played it on hard mode and it kept me for 13 hours. Bosses actually mixed thing. First ofUnlike movie, i like this game.

Game is pretty easy, that's why i played it on hard mode and it kept me for 13 hours. Bosses actually mixed thing. First of all, they're supposed to be some of the iconic Spider villains, like Scorpion or Rhino, but they don't have any personality, they're literally animals, just mutated. However, battles with them are cool. City is big and very bright, but not alive, there's not much things to do except "take that human to the hospital, beat that bandit". Graphics and voice acting are great. Overall, this game is rather mixed bag, but i like this. I just hope creators will push all the good things off the limits on their next installment, because it's a first really good movie-licensed game in a years.… Expand

    Mix of Prototype and Batman Arkham Asylum and sequels (even the storyline is somewhat stolen from them), this game is fun, full of action and good to spend some time on it. Graphics are very good (CriWare), gamplay is OK, lacks originality. Not an awesome game, but definitely a good one, something you don't expect from a movie-based game.

    I like the idea behind this game more than the execution. Web-swinging around the city is fun, the continuation of the latest movie's story is well done, and the fighting is fluid and dynamic when up against humans.

Web-swinging around the city is fun, the continuation of the latest movie's story is well done, and the fighting is fluid and dynamic when up against humans.

    Early on, our favourite neighborhood wall-crawler is put up against robots. Lots and lots of four-legged robots with near-instant tracking, shields that can block all but a certain combo, and that can shrug off webbing in a couple of seconds.

    Fighting the humans (either muggers or others) is immensely fun. The stealth sections are excellent, and being able to zip from cover to cover *anywhere you like* is fantastic. The boss fights are a little finicky and rely too heavily on quicktime actions, but can still be engaging. But the robots gods, the robots. They drag the game down.

    I understand that every game like this needs its "tough" mook. Arkham Asylum has its knife-wielding thugs and the stun batons, and this game has its robots. But where Batman had maybe two or three knives in a group, Spiderman has to fight entire rooms filled with robots. Story-wise, sure, it makes sense. But game-wise, it's just exhausting, and makes the game a pain.

    I can recommend the game for it's web-swinging, collectible-hunting, the challenges, and the rescue of citizens. But be warned that Spidey's wisecracks repeat a little too often, and following the storyline may be an exercise in frustration.    … Expand

    Amazing Spider-Man is back! Is that a good thing? No.

    This game isn't that good like some people say. This game isn't amazing. It's repetitive. Web-slinging isn't that good, it has glitches and it's story isn't that good. Combat is decent, it's not bad, but something more variations like Shattered Dimensions would make it awesome. Story isn't long and not good and after first    Amazing Spider-Man is back!

    Story isn't long and not good and after first playthrough, I didn't wanna do a second. It's just boring. There are max 3 different side-mission variations. Escort prisoners, who looks the same, help people from thugs, who look the same. Black Cat side-mission was good though. Camera has issues and web-slinging gets repetitive also. And web-rush makes it too easy. Since you can use that, there's no meaning using web-sling. You can collect 700 comics, but in the console version, you don't get anything else, except a trophy. In PC, you will get 2012 Kaine's (Spider-Man's clone) Scarlet Spider suit.

    Luckily, there are costumes and in the PC version you can mod them to awesome, but since it's only in PC, it doesn't make the score better. And costumes aren't that good, without modding. Raimi's black suit for example.

    You can buy it if, you're Spidey fan (like me), but don't expect anything good.    … Expand

As for the main campaign, I felt it was rather short and surprisingly easy to get through! The side-missions although fairly fun at first, the lack of variety does get slightly tiring! However, all that being said I have managed to play this game through, I enjoyed it and I do occasionally go back to pick up some collectables and such… I think if you can get into the game and get to grips with the controls this can be a quite enjoyable experience!… Expand

    You can swing around and punch people in a visually descent looking game. It's fine.

    Amazing game to The Amazing Spider-Man. Ok maybe not nice this year but back then it really made you feel like Spider-Man. In fact, it has a classic ps3 game mechanics and its story is not very effective. But swinging between buildings is always fun.

    I really like this game, it reminds a lot of the PS4 spider but this one has weird gameplay and the camera is horrible so I give it 7.
    the combat is amazing and reminds me of Batman Arkham

    The game is good, very similar to the batman games. However, it looked too much like a batman arkham city with spiderman skin and worse, being too easy and very repetitive

    When we think about The Amazing series, the first game was the most successful one for me. I remember having a lot of fun playing it, it's a good game and still playable.

    Great surprise that is does not have that much in common with the recent movie (fortunately). Maybe for this is the reason the game is played so well. [Sept 2012]
