But the real fun isn't so much in how the combat feels (it's pretty basic, to be frank) but how it translates the action onto the screen. One in particular, referred to as Pinball, proves extremely useful in close quarters as it sends the villain ricocheting from wall to wall in a high speed crisscross pattern, quite handy when facing off against a tightly-packed mob.Įlsewhere, you can usefully slow down time for a brief period by holding down LB, or throw in a super-powerful enemy-clearing attack (once your meter's charged up) by pressing RB and X, Y or B. Spidey also has a variety of special moves in his arsenal. The simple two-button combat system is back which allows players to easily perform all the fancy acrobatic kicks, punches and maneuvers that make Spiderman so entertaining to watch, the action depends on the order on which button you press between X and Y. It's difficult to execute, but very rewarding. Combat has been spiced up with a few neat tricks as well, with my personal favorite, having the ability to hang a thug from four lamp-posts at the same time. The combat animations are different for black suit Spidey as well, he is clearly doing the Rocky blunt force trauma gig as opposed to being cute and fast like Ali. Spidey's dark alter-ego this more powerful Spidey builds up a rage effect which he can then unleash when it's time to open up an extra large can of whoop-ass. The question is, with all these great features promised, can Spidey pull it off once again and meet our high expectations?įirst off let?s talk about one of the new obvious elements in this game.
This results not only in Spider-Man's new black suit, which enhances the hero's aggressiveness and power, but also his ensuing struggle with it, causing him to periodically switch between the two suits as the game progresses.
As players traverse the city, either on-foot or through Spider-Man's trademark web-swinging, they can participate in a number of missions that recreate the various events and fights of the film, including Spider-Man's acquisition of the symbiote Venom. Continuing in the tradition of Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man 3 brings the film home by offering gamers a large-scale virtual recreation of New York City to explore.
