Spiderman 3 the game was something I had to have after seeing the movie in theaters. It is very fun but when you are fighting enemies it's just alot of button pushing. Don't get me wrong, the graphics are pretty decent, and it's a great game for a kid that's a huge spidey fan, but I would rather spend 60 bucks on forza 2.

games way under rated

spiderman 3 is a lot better then the 2nd one which was over rated in my opionion. Mainly because the villans the used in it were better, other than sandman.(not a fan of him), but venom rocks. I would have given it 5 stars but the game can get whacked out every once in a while

Spider Man 3 is a fun game

This Game is really fun! But Im annoyed why i it takes forever to get to the black spidey also the web swing is the same thing but more annoying because you can easily mess up with it! The storyline is nice but they could have made this game much better.

not the best Spidey game, but playable

I could tell the minute that I started playing this game that it was not going to match up to the quality of the previous Spiderman movie tie in games. I feel that this game was rushed to meet the movie deadline. So many things could have been done to improve the game play. For intance, the camera angle was usually always bad, making it difficult to fight. The graphics would fade in and out along with the texture.

The fighting style of the game could have also been improved. I felt that this game didnt have any strategy to it, there were a few buttons to fight with, and when you were surrounded by a group of people you resorted to mashing every single one of them. Dont get me wrong, there were button combinations, but I never seeemed to have time to complete them.

Another thing that could have been improved was the random bugs in the game, there were a few missions I couldnt complete. I would just run over an object that I was supposed to pick up, and I would watch Spiderman run through them like they were not even there. I would also get involved in random crime sprees, and I wouldnt be able to avert the crime because one or more of the criminals would be stuck underground or inside a wall.

There are a few other things that could have been improved before the game hit the stores, but I feel that is enough ragging on the game. After all, it is Spiderman. It is time for the parts of the game that stood out. I enjoyed the swinging mechanism, watching the webline shoot out, and then tighten as Spiderman weight was applied to the line. I also thought that the blur created when Spiderman swung fast was also a nice touch.

I thought that the spider-sense was extremely helpful, allowing you to see enemies and allies or objectives at the touch of a button. I enjoyed almost all of the missions in the game, although they could have been a little longer. I wish that we had gotten to play as Venom, and I wish the level with New Goblin had been longer, allowing us to tinker around with his skills a little bit more.

I decided to give this game a medium rating, this game is fun for a bit, but then it seems to die down, or at least it did for me, with every little glitch that I experienced, I felt the game lost a little bit of its value. I have to say, that if you want a great Spiderman game, then this one is not for you. I feel that the Spiderman 2 movie tie in game was more fun, and more well done than this one. However, if you want to expoerience the swinging mechanism in the game, as well as some of the interesting missions, then you just might like it.

Okay stick with the first Spider man.

Okay first let me say that this game is wayyyyyyyy to long too many petty theif missions and the whole Lizard thing and the dewolfe it's stupid. Not to mention that every single flipping mission is impossible to do you have to run around chase everything you see and catch people and defend stupid innocent by standers and stupid stuff. The boss battles are as dumb as the missions why in the world would they make a boss battle where you have to fight more cronies and get your but whopped. If I wanted to get my but kicked I would play a fighting game. I thought Spider-Man was supposed to be strong and fast and stuff and the whole spider sense is the dumbest thing ever,Oh and the whole button thing is retarded it's like they seen God of War and thought hey I have an idea let's do that as well. It works for God of War not for Spider-Man. If you think your getting money's worth from this game then God speed cause you will stop playing after a while and you have to trade it in. Invest in the first one it's the best game so far Activison needs to get their act together.

Your all morons!

The only things i liked was the free roam, but the missions are sometimes fun but theres a lot of puzzle like things in missions which are really annoying. Some of the missions are difficult and the thing i really don't like is theres no cheats to help get through tough spots

Spider-man 3 Xbox 360 and Ps3

Treyarch took a great game like Spiderman 2 and made it even better with Spiderman 3.This game has a lot that spiderman 2 didn't like:

1)Swimming Thats right you can swim in the lakes and rivers and also the sewers.

2)Subways and Sewers in freeroam This is a major improvement over Spiderman 2 which didn't even have these in freeroam.This is part of the much bigger city that this game contains.

3)Better Random Crimes There is more of a variety you still have muggings,gang fights,and road rage missions but there is more variety and even with the missions you have to chase cars you don't bang on the car anymore you punch the guys hanging out of the window then you either stop the car by opening the trunk and distroying or webbing up the engine or tearing the doors off.

4)A bigger city overall Not only are the subways and sewers accesible but the city is far larger.Example Spiderman 2 had only 1 bridge Spiderman 3 has 6 however only 1 goes out to an island.Note:The ps2/wii has only 1 bridge but that version is very different from 360/ps3.

5)Graphics Spiderman looks better then he ever has before when playing on next gen as do buildings and other surroundings.There is also a lot more traffic and more detail in the people.As good as the graphics looked on spiderman 2 they look antimated compared to these.Sp 3 graphics look much more relistic.

6)Buildings are higher.The Empire State Building for example is higher then it is in Spidey 2.

7)Some Buildings are enterable in freeroam once you beat the story.

8)Skydiving There are several skydiving missions from several buildings one of which is the Empire State Building.These are fun and they show the beauty of the city when dropping from such high altitudes.Why you skydive there is an opera song with some unknown singer.It's appropiate for the skydive.The skydive missions are really pretty at night.

9)Bomb Tours Some of the story missions have it were you have to dismantle bombs but you can also do it in freeroam if you want to.These are fun challenges.

10)Gang fight challenges.At anytime when you get ready you can go clean up gangs and see how fast you can do it for rewards by pulling up the map and going to challenges.There are 3 gangs The Apokilipse,Candy Aresonic(Sexy Girl Gang)and The Dragontails(These are the toughest gang to fight.)

There are 10 missions in all and the bosses you fight are Calos The Madbomber Lizard,Scorpion,Rhino,Kingpin and Kraven as well as the movie villins Sandman,Venom and New Goblin.You also have the gang bosses which there are 3.In freeroam there is so much to do like random crimes,daily bugle missions etc.At some point in the game you aquire the black suit which is great.It features some moves that do more damage and the swinging is faster as well as the jumping.You eventually lose the black suit toward the end of the story but once you finish the game you get to play all the way thru again in the black suit.You also still have the red suit.You switch between the 2 in the characters menu.You have a second save point once beating the game.Also the Ps3 version will let you dowload the New Goblin.It's only 5.99 but he is fun to play around with in free roam and he can go higher then spiderman.He can actually go way over the highest buildings.Spiderman 3 has also added photomissions some of which you will do in the Daily Bugle and Dewolfe missions but also in the Lizard 1 and one of the Candy Aresonic Missions.Bruce Campell is still doing the narration and training.

Subway and Sewer Locations
These are hard to find when you first buy this game because they are not on the map.However you learn were they are by looking at buildings on the map close to the location.

First off The Conners Lab Sewer.This is the only sewer in freeroam but you can get to it from 2 locations.The first way is to go to the Garment District on the map.You will see a short fat building.There is a subway entrance behind it.Go down the subway and to the left.Take the stairs on the right down.Once in the train station turn right.Swing until you see a large hole in the wall on the Left side.Go in the hole and go all the way to the end and you see a manhole.You will be prompted to mash keys on your controller.Once you open it go down.You will see another hole go down it.Adjust your camera and run to the end of the platform.You can then jump off into the sewer and start swimming.If you swing or swim far enough you will come to the end and see 2 holes in the wall above.These lead to Conners Lab which you can enter.This sewer only features small waterfalls as opposed to the big sewer at Morningside Drive were the Lizard 2 and Conners 2 mission is which feature tha large waterfalls.Unfortuanly the Morningside Sewer is only available in storymode.Now from the Lincoln Subway the Conners sewer is on the Right side of the wall instead of the Left.The right side is where you'll find the hole in the wall at Lincoln but it goes to the same sewer.

Grand Cental Station Subway
This building is located between the Empire State Building and Christler Building and there is a tall building behind it.This is the only building that has a subway in it.The other subways are in the street.Look for the short wide building on the map with a tall one behind it.Grand Central is white.There is a door you enter.Go to every door till you find the one that opens.

Garment District Subway
On the map the short fat building.The subway is behind it.

Lincoln Subway
On the map you will see a short fat building behind Central City Park.Behind the building is the subway.

Lennox Subway
Behind and to the West of the Thoubourough Bridge.If you can't find it go on the bridge and come back down it looking to the left.You will see a building meeting the end of the bridge.Look straight left and you will see the subway.

Harlom Subway
You will see these buildings with green roofs.In front of the first one there is a subway at the street intersection.

City Hall Subway
You will see a industrial park with buildings in the grass.On the left side out from the grass there is a subway.

There are more but that's all I'll list.Once you know where to look on the map their easy to get to.If you can't find them you can always get to them from the Grand Central Station Subway.The subway itself is done well you can even enter the mens and womens restroom.Some of the womens restrooms have tokens in them.There are also tokens hidden in other parts of the subway.There are trains that run thru it as well as abandoned subways.

Notes of interest
The balloon,hospital,saving men from falling and rescuing people from a sinking boat are not in this game.You also can't catch a helicopter to gt to Liberty Island like you could with Spidey 2.

Once you beat the game twice you can't start another game unless you create a new profile.Once you start a new profile you can switch between your 2 profiles and play your saved black or red spidey or the new game on your other profile.There is no need to delete your saves.

The Cineractives are cool and once you get the bosses health down you do a cinematic which makes it look like your really watching the movie.They can be stressful thou because if you don't nail them you have to start over and if your health is low it you will die and have to start the whole mission over.

After beating the game go into the menu and the arenas section.There are several differnt locations you fight in.

Something I'd like to see in the next game are the Morning Side sewer in freeroam where you can open the manhole.An even bigger city with Coney Island and also a way to get to Liberty Island and the other 2 in this game.Also I was hoping to play as Venom in this game but you don't get to play as him.I hope this will be corrected in Spiderman 4.

I hope Sega will look at Spiderman 3 and do The Incredible Hulk game like this one.Imagine the Hulk being able to swim and go into subways and sewers.

I recommend this game as well as Spiderman 2.

Spidey is back!

Spider-man 3 the video game is a really fun game. You can unlock combos,costumes,and missions for the Daily Bugle. Spider-man 3 could have been a lot better but they made it too much like Spider-man 2. There are a few new things like going into sewers and subways,new villians to face,and becoming more powerful while wearing the symbiote suit. If you have played Spider-man 2 you will still like this game but it's not as fun. If you have never played Spider-man 2 you will love this game and get addicted to it. 4 stars out of 5 stars!!!

Not Bad

I got this game only a while ago and after playing for a while, I see the other reviews can be a bit harsh. The movements and swinging feel very natural and city is amazing. It is roughly 3 times larger than the 2nd and there is a lot to be seen. Adventure is great, you have several details including all the bridges, the subway with grand central, both parks at either end, Harry Osborn's house with the lair, and more to find.
Fighting has been really been improved from the 2nd. He has many combos that are simple and really look well. The boss missions can get a bit boring or hard but they are beatable. The random button pushing I will not go against. It makes certain scenes like stopping a runnaway train or destroying mechanical arms look a lot more cinematic and it gives Spider-Man a chance to show off a lot of what is shows he can do in the movies, tv shows, comics, etc.
Now for the bad.
The camera can be horrible at moments and cost you life, which in this game is important. The Spider-Reflexes (not the black-and-white-screened Spider-Sense) is not as easy to use and enemies will break the dodge easily.
Sometimes missions can get boring and if you look forward to the black suit, you will have to wait a while. Also, there are some minor glitches but they will rarely affect you and they can seem funny at times.
Other than that, you will find some fun in this game. Enjoy!
