The best Spider-Man game so far.

If you have played Spide-man 2 you will know how cool the web slinging is and how much more freedom there is. The graphics were total crap in Spider_Man 2 though which let it down, but in Ultimate Spiderman... the graphics are really really cool.

The game is based on the popular comic book series 'Ultimate Spider-Man'. It is a more up to date version of Spidey's story. The game trys to follow the comic book look by using comic book style animation in the awsome cut scenes and the game itself is cell shaded and is similar looking to 'Viewtiful Joe'.

The combat isn't as confusing as Spider-man 2 because there isnt any new combos you but, you unlock the ability to do more attacks as the game progresses. it is also limiting in that respect because you mostly button bash your way through the enemies. There are LOTS of bosses and countless races as well as the "try to keep up with the escaping enemy" thing.

If you get bored of playing as Spider-Man (which i dont think is possible), you also play as Venom (Spider-Mans arch enemy) and the two characters have a parallel story line and ocasionally they meet in some places (mostly on the boss missions).

Ultimate Spider-Man took me about 5 hours to complete and when you have completed it there is still loads to do so there is some really good value there.

Spider-man fans will really appreciate this game and it is a must have for them.
