Jul 22, 2020Good graphics, super boring plot, and terribly repetitive gameplay, it's just fly here, fight enemies, fly there and fight the same enemies

Jan 10, 2022This game is very bad and the combat system on the wall is annoying. This 360° camera makes me nauseous every time I try to fight on walls. Ultimate Spiderman was in 2004 and it's a thousand times better than this thing

Combat has seen some minor improvements, but the missions you're required to play and the side-quest stuff in the city are still pretty bland encounters for the most part, and it's those areas that really need to see the most improvement for the next Spider-Man installment down the line.

There’s enough great gameplay here to make Web of Shadows recommendable for Spider-Man fans. The sheer level of glitches in the game, however, manages to take the fun factor down several notches.

Web of Shadows is an improvement over previous Spider-Man titles, but still lacks the punch we expect from such a popular movie-based intellectual property. A poorly told story coupled with mediocre and often repetitive action sequences have thwarted this titles chances of blockbuster glory this Christmas.
