Manufacturer's Description
In "Spider-Man: Edge of Time," Spider-Man faces one of his greatest challenges ever - saving Spider-Man. Developed by Activision-owned studio Beenox, Spider-Man: Edge of Time challenges the player to take on the roles of both classic Amazing Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099 to correct a time stream gone awry and prevent a catastrophic future brought on by the early and untimely death of Peter Parker. "Spider-Man: Edge of Time" is a focused, action-packed adventure set in two connected and evolving timelines, from the contemporary times of the Amazing Spider-Man to the corrupted future world of Spider-Man 2099, against the backdrop of a rich, tightly crafted narrative by acclaimed Marvel veteran Peter David (co-creator of the comic book series Spider-Man 2099). The game features all-new "cause-and-effect" gameplay, where players will see how the immediate and sometimes unexpected effects of their actions as one Spider-Man changes the timeline of the other Spider-Man.

well firstly if your a big fan of your spiderman games, its a must have for several reasons; the combat flows brilliantly, the characters voice are perfectly suited and the graphics are amazing. the only downside i could find is that it wasnt long enough there is about 5-6 hours gameplay but you can play it through multilple times because you can carry your stats over.

I did nearly all my Xmas shopping online this year and it was brilliant. This game was a bargain compared to the high street, so I was very pleased. My son assures me it's a great game!

Fun:
This is an honest review after having completed the game.
Starting with the story, it' spretty decent. You control 2 spidermen, one from the current time and one from the year 2099. In order to progress in the game you must complete tasks for each other. There are a few well known bad guys along the way too. The combat is good, free flowing and there are lots of different moves to master along with upgrades. There are bad guys in nearly every room you enter, in the shape of futurisitic robots. The graphics are pretty cool, and look like comic book graphics. Some good voice acting from Val Kilmer.
So why did this only get 3 stars?
The problem with this game is that it's limited in what you can be. The last Spiderman game I played was Spiderman 3. This was based in a huge city where you could explore and do what you want, swinging from building to building. Edge of Time is based on an A to B style game. There isn't much space around for you to swing around and this is the main reason that we want to be Spiderman.
The game is simply go in one room, defeat the bad guys, go to the next room, hit a swithch, kill more bad guys and repeat. It gets very repetetive and boring very quickly.
On the other hand, if you like games that are fast paced and you like fighting bad guys with hit combos then you can give it a go. This would be a great game for kids.

Very predictable
The game just loops itself in levels just to make it long but the story is fantastic and especially spiderman 2099. Read more

A good game to rent but too short and repetitive to invest in
This games plot is fairly engaging and very self referential about its various plot holes. The gameplay however is pretty repetitive and only challenging in one or two places. Read more

Another Spiderman game...
It was a good game, with gameplay being a little slack considering the greatness of Web Of Shadows (although I do realise Shattered Dimensions was in between but lets ignore that... Read more
