    I really enjoyed playing this game. It's definitely not a complicated game, mostly a beat-em up type of spider-man, but fun none-the-less. The cut scenes are very pretty, but the in game graphics are kinda of bland---but not bad by any means. I would recommend picking this game when it makes a price drop to about 30 bucks. At the bare bones of it all, the game is definitely just a fun gameI really enjoyed playing this game.

    - lots of bonus content such as alternate costumes - able to jump right into challenges instead of playing through the whole level again through the web of challenges menu - really good story - cut scenes are gorgeous Cons: - lack of boss battles - simple puzzles - tedious enemy battles - "shock" being used as a profanity by spider-man 2099 It's    PROS: - fluid combat

    Sigue con la línea de su antecesora, es una pena que se le de esta nota al bueno de Spidey, si bien podemos decir que estas 2 últimas entregas de Activision me han recordado a la dinámica tan maravillosa de los juegos del trepamuros en playstation, ya por tanto se ha sentenciado a la saga y posiblemente uno de los mejores juegos de Spiderman se irán a la tumba a unirse a la morralla queSigue con la línea de su antecesora, es una pena que se le de esta nota al bueno de Spidey, si bien podemos decir que estas 2 últimas entregas de Activision me han recordado a la dinámica tan maravillosa de los juegos del trepamuros en playstation, ya por tanto se ha sentenciado a la saga y posiblemente uno de los mejores juegos de Spiderman se irán a la tumba a unirse a la morralla que tan horriblemente le ha publicitado.… Expand

    This game is awsome,with a new adventure and an original storyline,with two playable characters: Peter Parker (Amazing Spider-Man) and Miguel O'Hara.Great.

    I really enjoyed this game, I wasn't really expecting to because of the bad reviews, but I found the fighting fun so I didn't really get bored of it, and the story just made me want to carry on, it's very well written and it's fun to hear the two spider-men talking to each other

    Interesting take on a Spider-Man game. Linear without an open world. The story is interesting. The only thing missing would be more bosses. There are no classic Spider-Man enemies here.

    As a Spider-Man fan i recommend 100%

    When you play Arkham City you realize what Edge of Time is NOT. Namely enjoying a varied game which makes you feel like a true superhero. [Dec 2011]

    The idea of having two synchronous time periods that influence each other is a good one, but there are too many shortcomings that make Edge of Time a frustrating experience. The story is told in a confusing way, the graphics are bland and so is the overall action. [Nov 2011, p.68]

    While Spider-man: Shattered Dimensions is definitely a step back in the franchise it's not a drastic one per say. If you are a fan of Spiderman then the game can still be fun despite its many flaws. However if you are looking for a game with a lot more polish and then Spider-man: Shattered Dimensions should best be avoided.
