Rating : - Great, but repetitive
The controls are seemless. You go from swinging among buildings to planting yourself smack on a wall. Visually, everything looks great. Although I personally always thought that the black suit spiderman should be a little bigger than good ol' red and blue. The boss fights are great. Particularly against the Vulture. I got tired of chasing Electro and the fight against the Blackcat was a little disorenting but those were still good.

Now the bad. Spiderman's voice is a little annoying. I see little difference between chosing a good path or the "evil" path. Your "help" is really useless, accept against the Kingpin's Mechs, as you can't call them to help you fight a boss. And as the Amazon review noted, beating up/saving 10, 25, 50 and then 100 of something does get repeditive.

Lastly, I haven't finished the game, but I would hope that Carnage would make an apperance in here somewhere. Can't really have an over run of sym's without him I would think
