Well...how can i sum this game up.

Well as being surprisingly good, you start off with spider man and a few token sidekicks to play with, but it isn't until the 2nd stage when you unlock your first bad guy (Dr Ock) that the game really gets going and you get to play as the spier man (movie/comic) villains. This is where this game shines and stands way above the awfulness that was SM3, and makes for a very good spider man game that if had a free roam ability would stand way above any other spider man game. But you fight out in stages where you follow the path defeating bad guys as you go along.
Now the graphics are good, and provide a mix between comic book styles of USM and the realistic feel of SM1, 2 & 3, with the game playing much like Marvel Ultimate Alliance, but only better with an much more fluid looking and individual combat system for each character. each character has his and her own move set and some unique combo and joint attack moves, Dr Ock attacks with his metal tenticels, spider man uses webbing a look and Green Goblin using weapons. now while at first this seems too good to be true, unless you upgrade your characters they just don't stand a chance in the later levels and this is one of the games first problems, with such a varied selection of characters its hard to not keep with one guy and as such you don't really get a feel of the others to much. But seeing how the games bad guys only change there appearance you really wont find this game to hard to complete, which means that stage after stage its the same type of bad guys over and over

Now the two player works well and is great fun for both players, controls work well, but i find that i have to shake the Nunchuk as hard as i can to switch characters in one player mode. All in all this is a must buy for any Wii owner
