Activision and Treyarch tossed all sorts of combos and goofy names for moves into this title, but when all is said and done, Spider-Man 3 is a button-masher. The gameplay doesn't take a bite out of the Big Apple either.
Cars, buildings and textures pop in and out as you shoot through areas you'll still see the same passive civilians over and over the framerate chugs during some battles (though it is much smoother than on PS3) the view gets a smear of Vasoline as lights in the night crop up and collision detection is laughable - at one point, Spidey "dodged" a missile by letting it pass through his pelvis. Although New York is prettier than last time, Spider-Man 3 is not up to snuff for Xbox 360. Like any supervillan in Peter's life, this title's got problems. If the same handful of crimes in the last Spider-Man game kept you happy, the expanded roster of events - Activision said there's three times as many events in Spider-Man 3 - will keep you playing, but please don't take that as a ringing endorsement. The better you do, the more upgrades you get for your health and reflexes. It's up to you to patrol these areas, bust bad guys and watch the zones turn from angry, gang-controlled neon to peaceful, Spidey-influenced green. These zones are visible on the in-game map as well as tracked on Spidey's stat menu. See, New York is broken up into different gang zones. Even better is the fact that the pop-up crimes aren't just there to be there this time around - they play into Spidey's Crime Fighting Index. Sure, you have to stop an out-of-control driver every now and again, but sometimes you'll get to follow a speeding police car to a crime scene. The swinging is well animated and pointing your analog stick left or right will direct Spider-Man as to where to shoot his webbing, while the random crimes are more in-depth this time around. Let's get the good out of the way first - swinging through the city and taking care of random crimes, arguably the best parts of Spider-Man 2, are arguably the best parts in this game.
