I bought this game today and played it and it had really cool graphics.I got the hang of the moves and I can't wait to get to the level where you use the black suit spider-man.This game has very good gameplay and it is fun.I am asuming that venom will be the hardest to beat or sandman where he turns into a giant.This game is really cool and fun!The movie is out and this game is highly recommended.

Every hero has a dark side...Unleash yours!!!!!

Spider-Man 3 the movie is now the game. Play as the classic and the black suited Spider-Man, each with their own special moves and powers. Playstation 2 owners will have a special treat. After you beat the game, you can choose four more storylines!!! The first two games were great, but surpasses the two!! A must have!! 9.5 out of 10!!

Other people say that the graphics arent that good! But the game is really fun! If a game has good graphics but not good gameplay that's just stupid! It is a fun game and worth the money that is paid for it! Trust me buy it!

We bought this game as a reward for our son passing his first FCAT's. He was hinting that he would really LOVE to have it. So we surprised him, and of course he went crazy!!

He has been playing it everyday since he opened it. EVERYDAY!!!

A Good (Not Great) Addition To Your Spider-Man Library

Let me start off by saying that I fully agree with the mixed reviews. I fully enjoyed the game, but found many annoying things in it, as well. Will you like it? If you enjoyed Spider-Man 2 and Ultimate Spider-Man, then yes. Spider-Man 3 plays a lot like both games with respect to the third movie and a few other villains that are added just like in the previous Spider-Man games.

The game feels very rushed--far too many loading screens (which not only take away from the game's pace, but also cuts-off a lot of dialog), a few glitches (landing on the ground right up against some buildings will make you fall through the ground and into nothingness causing the game to automatically reset/restart missions, people walking through objects), poor sub-missions (the "City on Alert" missions are easy, but tacky--delivering a pie to only later have to save the pie from being kidnapped? Are you kidding me?), and mediocre voice acting add to the bad reviews.

The game's main plot follows the Spider-man 3 movie fairly close in terms of what to do and length of gameplay (movie plot only lasts for a few hours--far too short). There is a sub-plot as you follow the path of the Lizard. This sub-plot is about as lenghty as the main plot, but does add well to the game and gives you more bosses to battle. The only negative here with the Lizard in this game is that I am hearing that the fourth movie will be based on the Lizard as the main villain. That kind of eats at any Spider-man 4 the game ideas and originality.

The game engine is familiar as the game-play is very similar to Spider-Man 2. A few things were taken out (sprinting, slow-mo spider-sense), but the added ability to fight in the black suit not only adds to the fun, but also adds to your strategy as you can't fight in the black suit all day or it will knock you out and cause you to fail your mission if you fight too much with it on at one time. Fighting is basic button mashing, but add-ones and upgrades are available to purchase with your hero experience points (sound familiar). The movie plot is obviously in the game, but you can pretty much go your own path and fight some of the other villains (like the Lizard) in the game whenever you choose.

Graphically, the game looks quite good. It's a tad cartoon-ish, but Spider-Man is based off a comic book; therefore, personally, I didn't mind the looks of the game at all. Voice acting is good, with the exception of James Franco (Harry Osborne/Goblin). He needs a serious lesson in doing voice-overs. Cameras and controls are a tad rough at times, but if you didn't mind them in previous Spider-Man games, then you won't have a problem here, either.

Also added is the timed action button sequences (ala RE4 or the God of War games) where a button symbol shows on the screen and you have to press that corresponding button as soon as it shows or you take damage. However, where it's a nice addition, it's not done well--you have what seems like all day to press the correct button, wait a minute, and then press another button. If these sequences were sped up to the pace like in the GoW games, then this would be a welcome addition. Since it's not done well, this just adds to the "game feels rushed" negatives.

Overall, the game is quite solid. It was rushed to join the movie release, but it is enjoyable and worth a purchase. Take the good with the bad and you will enjoy yourself with Spider-man 3.

Should have been a movie-only game

What's good:
-The controls are not bad. Others will say differently, but the web zip at least is cool. I don't remember that in the second game
-You're never bored. The game doesn't end after you beat the final bosses.
-Villains are definitely beatable if you know your stuff, but not impossible
-The music. Excellent movie-tie in music
-Fun. There's stuff to do, although doing all of it is pretty tough and may take several tries (of playing the whole game)
-Funny audio segments

What's bad:
-The graphics, although they surpass Spider-man 2. Mary Jane's graphics are unsightly
-There's not too much interaction with the city when you're not in a mission (for example, you can't go into a building)
-Harry Osborn/The New Goblin's storyline...incredibly so
-More emphasis seems to be on the Lizard's storyline (which is stupid, since the character will probably be used for a Spider-man 4) than on the main ones
-Final battle FMVs and storyline...I don't understand why they just can't stick to and expand the movie
-The game is overambitious, trying to be a movie tie-in game and a stand-alone game...which is why both goals are far from successful
-You would think that you would get more character depth somewhere in a game than in the movie, as games are much longer in length...but alas...
-Kraven was pointless. As was Carlyle (people who play this game because of the movies alone won't understand why this character is included...or who the hell he is)
-Storyline!!

Worth a rental. Definitely worth a rental.

Don't buy this, though. Not if you have a PS2 like I do, as you can't even fight characters like the Rhino or Kingpin (although there is Morbius and Shriek...but those aren't characters people will be begging to fight)

SP3 VG not bad

Spider-man 3 was pretty good. I liked the control setup. Great graphics overall. Only problem was it loaded after every mission and a few graphic glitches (PS2). Basically a good game SP2 was a little better.

Spiderman 3 a good game

This game is pretty good.It has fun fighting,and the missions are not half bad.But I would say that the graphics are not as good as i would expect.They are OK,but nothing as good as PS3,or 360.Overall you can do many missions.You can fight bad guys,take photos,and you can unlock alot of new moves.You get to go all around Manhattan doing missions.Also this game does not stick to the movies storyline.You get to go and do anything you want to do but some of the missions are related to the movie.Overall this is a good Game
