    I honestly believe that the game developers realized there was no challenge to the game, so they purposely BROKE the camera! It's the only challenging thing in there. And it immediatly killed any fun the game had to it about 1/2 way through. Its a six for great cut scenes, lot's of unlockables, and top-notch voice acting. Otherwise gamefly and return in a week!

    Just adding my 2 cents worth and giving it a 7. Wish they had more Noir missions. I guess I'll wait for the next Batman game to get more of that candy.

    Cons: The game play is nothing new or exciting, and gets quite repetitive after the first couple hours. There is hardly anything to unlock, aside from more outfits. Pros: The boss fights are extremely fun. The graphics and art styles are awesome. And the cutscenes are great. So to make things short; awesome boss battles and cinematics, in between those is repetitive junk. Solid 6.

    It's worth a rent but not a buy. I bought mine new for only 20 bucks. So go rent it, play through it, enjoy the fun story and boss fights, get the unlockables and achievements and take it back. It's worth a play at the least.

    This game was fun, but it felt like it was taking on too much w/4 different stories. Usually, switching between different types of gameplay is a refreshing twist, but this felt more like a chore at times. The game stays true to Spiderman doing "Amazing" feats, but the fighting can get a little stale.

    The greatest Spidey game of this generation. Four fantastic flavours of arachnid awesomeness. [Issue#231, p.89]

    Your enjoyment of Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions will depend on how much you agree with Bobby Kotick's assessment of the previous entries in the series. If you truly believe they sucked, skip Shattered Dimensions as it's more of the same (just without the open world New York). But if you enjoyed them, you'll want to give the game a shot as it's another entertaining Spider-Adventure that's more linear than recent games in the series, but still a lot of fun.
