If you look at the quality of other spider-man games you will realize that this game is bad.

The display name pretty much says it all. I mean the game is short,crappy,boring, and it doesn't have variety..... The gameplay is bad I mean there are like only 4 different special attacks and there isnt even a lock-on feature which sucks because attacks do miss alot which also means when your helplessly attacking the air your enemies are attacking you but it really doesn't matter because if your hp runs out your just going to recover in like in 3 seconds. When it comes to your partner they are a little bit useful but in the level they'll only beat like 3 or 4 enemies out of like 15-20. The sound is ok but some of the sounds are not traditional Spider-man games sounds but the incredible voice acting makes up for it. The voice acting is like a mix of Ultimate Spider-man and Ultimate Alliance which is a very good thing. The graphics are pretty good I mean the opening cinematic looks like if it's from gamecube or something. The enviroments are alright as well as the character models and items but I personally feel that it could've been a little better but I'm not going to compare graphics since I don't like doing that.
The replay value depends if you want to continue getting coins to buy the unlockable things which I recomend you do since the game is awfully short. It's probably like 4 or 5 hours long but maybe it's shorter but that's just at my pace.There are a few other modes that are a little bit interesting such as survival,mini games, boss battles, and free play. I personally think only survival is good but it can also be sort of tiring because all you do is verse many enemies until your hp runs out. The other things are just the same things you do in the missions just that these are going in the record book. So in conclusion the game was boring, short, and whatever else I said on the top of the review.Yoou might like it but it's a little hard to atleast to me because as soon as the first mission was done I had 29% of the game beat already. From there on I started hating it and maybe you will too but the keyword is maybe.
