That soundtrack

Seriously: this has some of the most catchy video game music I can recall. It needs to be put on Spotify as soon as possible.

The game itself is fine I suppose. The combat is more of the same as Spider-Man 2 which I'm not sure is the best thing but it's acceptable for the time. The graphics are not the worst considering it was released early on the lifespan of the PlayStation 3's lifecycle. There's an asinine amount of glitches, some mission objectives are infuriating, and the fact Treyarch removed the side missions in favor of longer story missions is a disappointing.

But overall, swinging around the city is still fun and the story is pretty decent considering the bad movie it has to draw from. The controls for the New Goblin are awful and the game even says so in the narration (done by an awesome Bruce Campbell) which isn't really enough to justify their awkwardness.

It's fun for a weekend and fans probably will like the inclusions from the comics lore. But others can skip this and they won't be missing much by doing so.
