Spider-Man: Friend or Foe

Fun game, plain and simple

Love this game. It's easy to pick up and play right away, but still provides challenges to complete. I have a friend who is as picky as can be and usually discards games after playing for only a day or two, but she's played this one months and continues to enjoy it. The graphics aren't that sophisticated, and the gameplay is fairly linear, but it is still fun. When you die, you just come back to life in the same spot with a less upgrade-money, which is a pretty minor penalty as you can easily purchase every upgrade by the end of the game. So there is no frustrating replaying of scenes from dying.

The multiplayer is really fun. You can't hurt each other, only the bad guys, so you can all go around pounding on your enemies with impunity. You have many characters to play around with as the game progresses, and you should try them all, as they all have different audio that's pretty funny. I found the best secondary characters were Black Cat and Venom, because they have the ability to pick up things to throw from a distance (with the Black Cat's "Claw" and Venom's web respectively), which is very useful and makes the two characters similar to SpiderMan. Otherwise, you may find the person playing Spidey will be snatching all the goodies before you can.

One improvement they could have made would be to add different levels of difficulty for those players that really want a challenge, as it does get pretty easy to play over time. Definitely one of the best Wii games out there in the adventure genre.

Not horrible

My checklist (0/1)Graphics-no (0/.5)Plot-no (1/1)Characters-yes (2/2) Controls-good-not much Wii intergration, which is good (.5/.5) Funness/Does the price fit-yes total-3.5, controls and character selection are good, Plot is a piece of shit, and the graphics aren't good. But I enjoyed it, it hasgood difficulty curve, that is it isn't too easy or too hard. Recommend-I got it when there were no games for Wii, now I would wait until another drought, which could be next year in the beginning-much less price

The Game has its Standards

This game was a very good one to be exact. It kind of has the spin of the Smash Brothers Brawl, but this is more level based. This game is highly addictive, and anyone who loves multiplayer action will enjoy it. No matter what age you are at, you will completely have fun. Although it would be better if you had multiplayer. Spiderman Friend of Foe: Try it, Play it, Get it.
