    The highlight of the graphics is undoubtedly the recreation of Manhattan. While it was impressive in Spider-Man 2, this sequel takes it to unprecedented heights.

    New York has never looked better and the increased size and complexity really bring the Big Apple to life, even if the framerate chugs from time to time.

    The game is not only bigger, but also better in almost every way. The graphics, the animation, the lighting, and the overall storyline cohesion – the whole package is vastly improved. There are some issues such as repeating voice work, more persistent framerate stuttering than the PC or 360 version, and a hyperactive camera while indoors, but the rest of the game more than makes up for these shortcomings.

    The best thing about playing Spider-Man 3? Without a doubt, the web slinging. Thanks to a tight control scheme and great level design, slinging around the virtual city is one of the game's great thrills.

    If you are the type of gamer that likes a good button-masher, and can work past the occasional which-way-is-up camera angles, then this game should have tremendous appeal for you.

    Spider-Man 3’s greatest strength isn’t how accurately it captures the essence of this hero; it’s the game’s ability to keep you in a state of wonder. You never really know where Spidey will be headed next, or what challenge you’ll be tasked with upon arrival. Variety really makes this game stand out above the others.

    A no-brainer purchase for hard-core fanboys but still priced a bit too high for everyone else. At least give it a rent for city-swinging fun and to try the New Goblin.

Now better than ever. The game has totally been tweaked and corrected from the previous franchise and now it is the diffnitive spiderman game. A little frame rates but you can hardly notice.

    Well i had a fun time with this game growing up & how High Quality it looked back in the Late 2000s based on my now favorite marvel hero.Well i had a fun time with this game growing up & how High Quality it looked back in the Late 2000s based on my now favorite marvel hero.

    For me this was my Spider-Man 2018 alongside Ultimate Spider-Man 2005 even though that title isn't as graphically realistic but takes on a more Cartoony Comic-Book Apparoach/Style, But overall i do hold a special place for this game granted its not perfect & admittedly their are noticeable flaws with this game pretty much keeping it from being a good superhero game.

    But despite all that i would always come back to this game mainly for the fun times i had with it growing up & even now because im a Fan for Spider-Man!    … Full Review »
