4.0 out of 5 stars A lot better than the reviews would have you believe..., 19 Nov 2008
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
I could write a lengthy review but it's unnecessary.

There are a few disappointments with this game, but there are with many games. The graphics are one area that could use a polish, and the voice acting could use some work (for peter), but aside form that this game was a hell of a lot of fun to play through.
It's in all honesty, heads above every single other spider man game release.

In one line: It is the best Spider man game to date.

3.0 out of 5 stars A game that should have been for the PS2, 8 Feb 2009
By Mr. David E. Charles - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
Spider-Man: Web of Shadows is a game that is good, fun, entertaining, along with all the other basics, it has many flaws. The graphics, design of New York city and gameplay are all good for their own reasons:

- Graphics are excellent, a solid 9/10 - they give you the feeling that this is somewhat close to real life and allow you to get involved in the game.
- New York city is full of tall buildings (supposedly) allowing you to do what Spidey does best: swinging from place to place via the buildings.
- The gameplay gets a 8/10. It's very fancy, entertaining and the best part is that you can quite easily imagine our arachnid-like hero doing. A word of warning though: it is better to learn all the tricks otherwise it can get very repetitive.

The biggest gripe I have with this game however is that there are very few to no unlockables. You do not get to play as any other characters, get new costumes for Spider-Man, collect comic covers or anything of the sort like in previous games. The only kind of unlockables you can get are in the form of buying new moves to upgrade both the red and black suit (which is a basic in gaming really and doesn't normally count) and collecting 2,000 spider-symbols. Although, the only thing these do is increase your health and special attack meter, and really, you can go throughout the game umpteen times without them and, really, who would go so far as collecting 2,000 spider-symbols? This leads me to another grip - you cannot change the difficulty level meaning it's always going to be a certain difficulty. Also, the boss battles with the main antagonist of the game, Venom, are all disappointingly easy, making you wonder why he's the villain. There is also one gripe I have with the black-suit. With exception to the `Ultimate universe', Venom has never been seen with the ability to use tentacles. This, when you think of it, is a good thing because if Venom did use tentacles he would be on his way to being a clone of the other symbiotic villain, Carnage. In this game, however, Venom doesn't use webbing and instead has tentacles galore. As daft as this is, Spidey takes it one step further by adding huge claws to the ends of his and effectively creating a symbiotic rip-off of Kratos' Blades of Chaos from the God of War franchise. Finally, the biggest gripe I'll mention is the web slinging. It's a minor one though because web slinging in this game is otherwise good. However I have found Spider-Man to swing from thin air rather then buildings one too many times. Like I said, a minor gripe in the end.

Despite amount of ranting I have done, I do recommend this game. It's just that this game had a lot more potential then all the other Spider-Man games and it seems to have been forgotten. All in all, this should really have been a game for the PS2 rather then a PS3. Do get this game, but if there are other games you want I recommend you get them before you get this.
