Conman's Last Hunt
Entry 7

An unfortunate step in the wrong direction.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is unpleasant to control and often muddy-looking, which is compounded by conceptually novel yet ultimately ill-fitting open level design. For all the previous game’s flaws, it was a more focused experience which took advantage of limited technology, and was never unintentionally obtuse or confusing to navigate. This is the more ambitious game, and I respect that, yet sadly none of its elements work in tandem.

I’d recommend trying the Gameboy Advance games to see this semi-exploratory Spider-Man action-platformer idea done competently.
