Find out why the web-slinging, boss-battling action of the Spider-Man 3 video game is a frustrating mess with Gary’s game review!
The Kingpin for twice the mayhem.
Frustration and Failure! 6n3o1v
Holy cow, this game has problems. First off, battling bad guys is frustrating cuz you can't lock-on to them - so if you KO a guy with punch two of a combo, you'll keep swinging at air for the rest of the combo while his buddies thump you. If that's not bad enough, the graphics are weak! Spider-Man looks awesome, but everybody else is ho-hum and even the city looks dull. The biggest bummer is the boss battles though - the only way to hurt the bosses is to wait for them to attack you and pull a counter-attack move! Anything else gets you beaten senseless, so the battles are a total pain in the butt.
Super or Stupid? 6v6a59
The movie's a snore and the game's no better! Even with huge levels and lots of bosses, the awkward fighting, ho-hum graphics and lame boss battles sink this sucker. Unless you're a hardcore Spider-Man fan, give this jumbled mess of a game a miss. Save your allowance and wait for the new Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer movie and game to arrive.
