Activision's shares fell by 5.2 per cent yesterday evening when news emerged that the Spider-Man 3 title has averaged review scores of 73-74 per cent, compared to 80 per cent for the previous title.
However, a report on Forbes.com suggests that there is still confidence in the title, with Todd Geenwald, a Nollenberger Capital Partners analyst suggesting: "Reviews are not as important for a movie-based game. What's more important is how the movie does in theaters."
No surprises here really. The Wii and PS2 versions are garbage, and the 360/PS3 versions are passable at best. Doesn't really matter though. It's a game based on a hugely successful movie. All the versions will sell like mad. Check out some footage below:
