Oh the cheese of early 2000s Spider-Man nostalgia... what a strange and fascinating time.

Well, Bruce Campbell alone makes this worth playing. Who doesn’t love being yelled at by Bruce? If you don’t, you’re probably a dweeb. Okay not seriously but come on, Evil Dead 2 amiright?

Anyways, this is such a weird game. Story wise it get like, 1 and a half stars because of the little sense it actually makes and the ending is pretty disappointing.

It’s an easy game to beat. Not super challenging. But it’s a pretty big improvement over the ps1 Spider-Man games which it is very much in the vein of.

I loved web zipping, and the swinging was much more fluent (All thanks to the next gen hardware. Hell yeah).

Combat was aight but the camera was kinda weird at times and the spider sense reflex thing didn’t always help. I liked the inclusion of the web stuff though. That made for some fun combos.

I really liked the cut scenes. Sure, they look pretty lackluster by today’s standards, but man I just loved em.

The robot stuff towards the end was kinda annoying, but it was actually kinda suspenseful and challenging at times. Bravo.

If you’re a spider-man fan, check it out. Otherwise, still check it out. It’s kinda fun and kind of ridiculous.
