I really wish they'd gotten to release it. Not a sequel, but a sort of anthology game where you play through a bunch of greatest hits of Spider-Man stories. The team at Shaba was working on a follow-up at one point, before it got canned. I think it's a fantastic generic spider hero game, but an inferior Spider-Man game. I think its a great and terrible and wonderful and awful game. This game invented the web strike, and there's a reason it's been in every Spider-Man game since.īeing able to fight enemies on walls and in the air was really cool. Luke Cage has to teach Spider-Man how to use his spider sense and web-strike. The objectives and 'side quests' are mind-numbingly dull, tedious, and monotonous. The symbiote powers are Prototype levels of absurd, to the point it doesn't feel like a Spider-Man game. His supporting cast doesn't get used at all.

When the outbreak is just starting, before he knows what's going on, civilians start attacking him, and he just chucks them off a skyscraper rooftop.

He's whiny to the point that nobody likes him at all in his own game. It does a lot of things really well, but for everything it does right, it does at least one thing horribly, horribly wrong. I have a love/hate relationship with this game.
