Disappointing
Don't ask me why, but I kind of had high hopes for the Spider-Man 3 video game. Considering how much I loved the surprisingly great Spider-Man 2 game, I figured that Spider-Man 3 would just expand on what the previous title explored with it's immersive environments. Sadly, what we get with Spider-Man 3 is more of the same, only this time around it just comes off as boring and is only fun in small spurts. Once again you play as the wall crawler as you swing through a huge rendering of New York City, which once again is designed wonderfully and just aches to be explored. Sadly though, for such a huge city, not much seems to be going on, and the repetitive missions and choices placed throughout the game are just more grating than anything else. For a late in life PS2 game, Spider-Man 3 looks pretty good, and the controls are pretty responsive as well, and there's still fun to be had in swinging around the city, though depending on how often you've played previous Spider-Man games, that fun's lasting effect will vary. Not to mention that the game's hook: playing in the black Venom costume, never really goes anywhere either. Tobey Maguire once again lends his voice as Spidey, while other cast members from the film like James Franco, Topher Grace, Thomas Haden Church, and J.K. Simmons are all here as well along with a returning Bruce Campbell as the game's guide/narrator. All in all, Spider-Man 3 is worth a look, but much like the film itself, this game will leave you a bit disappointed because there was a boatload of potential here to make something really memorable.
Less of the same
After playing other Spiderman games I figured this one would be about the same with new missions. It isn't - in fact it is astoundingly bad.
There are some major issues:
First the bad plot that has almost nothing to do with the movie. Do you remember Brock getting fired because he dressed up like black Spiderman and mugged people? How about MJ breaking up with Peter because he got nasty and knocked over a wine glass? What about Sandman's kid locked in the trunk of the taxi that MJ was dangling from at the end? I would like to know if Activision was simply not told the majority of the plot or if they just decided to kind of made it up as they went along?
Second the short length. After long side missions I beat the game in 7 hours. I bet you could finish the game in less than 5 without the side missions. They also cut several storylines from the PS2 version like Kingpin, Rhino, and Scorpion.
Third, it looks like they replaced the actors with zombies. Mary Jane looks the worst. Seriously though, this game is a textbook example of the uncanny valley.
Fourth the controls suck. There is a slight delay in your attacks, so combat is hard to get used to. Also they removed many of the fun moves from Spider-Man 2.
There are also tons of glitches. I loved it when in a mission a guy decided to stand on my shoulders, or get carried in the air slightly to the left of me. Also you can frequently fail a mission because all of these glitches.
Finally the amount of loading is ridiculous. For example if you have just completed a mission this is what will happen. First loading, then text says "Mission passed!" followed by more loading. You get a few XP then loading...again. Five second cut scene. You guessed it - more loading.
There is some good in the game. Bruce Cambell as usual is a top notch narrator. Also the gang wars are an improvement on 2 and actually makes it seem like what you do positively affects the city.
In the end this is a depressingly bad game. Spider-Man 2 was infinitely better. Even the average Ultimate Spider-Man was better than this. Buy virtually any other Spiderman product and you'll be better off.
Dumbed down version of Spidy 2
After playing Spiderman 2, several times, and having a blast every time (Sometimes I just like to swing around the city, exploring but not actually doing anything), I eagerly awaited Spidy 3. What a let down. There is still a full city to swing around, but the graphics are some of the worst I have seen since PS1. They not only lack detail, but are often shakey, like the system's processor is being overloaded. The stats are largely removed, and you can no longer check fun things like how fast you have swung, or how far you have fallen. The missions are a bit repetitive, but that was a flaw with Spidy 2, so I can't complain about that.
My biggest disappointment was the control of Spidy. the number of moves he can do is extremely limited. There are very few fighting combos to chose from. and his web abilities are almost non-existent. Forget about ever shooting more than one web, even when swinging (No more slingshotting yourself from between two buildings). My favorite move, the lamp post hanging, has been eliminated in this game, as well as many other great moves. Also, there is no longer a spider-sense mode, only the chance to dodge when his head gets a ring around it. And it becomes very annoying when you have to go anywhere quick, as there is no run mode. Wall crawling is very slow, and so is Spidy's regular movement. You need to swing to go anywhere fast, and it can become annoying when you are trying to cross a building's roof, you end up swinging off the roof.
Had this game just been a reprogrammed version of Spidy 2, with a new story line and villians, but everything else the same, it would have been repetitive, but fun. Instead, they tried to add new "features" like gang wars and photo taking, while greatly increasing the loading times and dumbing down the rest of the game, making it playable by even the most inexperienced of gamers. Spidy 2's hero mode was a chalenge for me. I beat this story mode on superhero, in under 5 hours of play time, with very little difficulty. I looked into doing the gang wars, but they became repetitive too quick, and I went back to the story. Even the swinging around the city was boring. Rent it if you're a fan, but not worth the buy.
