Decided to play this after the PS1 Spider Man game. Ended up emulating it on the PC and it ran pretty great, minus a few missing textures and some occasional screen tears. However it ran at full 60fps the whole time which is what matters.
The greatest thing about this game is the web slinging. They just did such a great job with it. Its not too complicated but its also not super simple. You really feel like you are spider man zipping around, and damn you feel cool.
Beyond the web slinging all the levels/bosses are pretty run of the mill chase/fight objectives. The story itself is a fine retelling of the comic, with some nice splashy comic book effects for scene transitions and action. I was a little surprised at the length. I beat it in just 8ish hours (so two nights of playing). As a child I remember playing this game forever. Of course I was trying to complete every race/fight and collect all the secrets which would likely add at least 3 hours to the experience.
Overall this is a nostalgia banger for me. Just love the art, playing as venom or spiderman, and good god did they nail the web slinging!
