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 t...
Swinging is still as fun as ever. Major improvements to combat and camera.

Spidey can’t catch a break lately. The third movie was laughable in many places, and the last couple of games just went downhill fast. Of course, I’m sure all of these enterprises made bucket loads of money for those involved, so who am I to judge.And...

Overall, I was left with the impression that Spider-Man: Web of Shadows could have been really great if some care was taken to vary the experience, but instead we are left with an average beat ‘em up. Swinging around the city is fun while it lasts, bu...
