Spider-Man: The Movie - Xbox

Spider-man the movie

Spider-man the movie for the Xbox Spider-man the movie for the Xbox is properly described as one of the top ten best superhero games of the century. The reason behind this is a story based on a blockbuster movie, excellent gameplay, outstanding graphics (for a 2002 game anyway), and good voice acting from Tobey Maguire and Willem Dafoe. The gameplay is a spider-fan's dream. Its actually like being the webslinger himself; you can do webswinging, acrobatic leaps, and awesome combat moves that contribute to a very unique experience. For the combat to start off your only left with a few attacks so you won't have the most coolest and powerful attacks such as Scissor Kick, Dive Bomb, Sting, Palm or High Stomp and in order for you to use these special attacks you have to go and look for gold Spider icons. There are a total of 30 different combinations and you have a variety of stylish or powerful attacks. This is really good 'coz it extends the game a bit. When you execute each of these stylish and powerful combat attacks they really emphasise Spider-man's character, he has superstrength, superspeed, superagility and the ability to spin organic spider webs; and the combat incorporates all those traits. Some attacks are much more powerful than others, but some are faster and they can save from heavy damage. What really impressed me about the game was the ability to jump on bad guys back even on the aerial villains'. In the indoor levels you can basically do the ground combo attacks that I mentioned above which l thought the animations for them look spectacular, do aerial acrobatic attacks, stealth mode, lift up cars and throw them which are very good features and make the indoor levels great, but the outdoor levels are really the ones that take the cake. You can swing around from place to place, do aerial acrobatics and aerial acrobatic attacks and several other cool things. But even with these spectacular feats the gameplay would've truly made you feel as if you were Spider-man if the web didn't stick to the sky and swinging through New York traffic was allowed and if the camera system was much more improved. Heck, I just wanted to throw the damn controller right at the screen 'coz it was so "�%^$*(! frustrating! But overall the gameplay rocks! P.S. You can play as goblin when you finish the game on hard and in the Xbox version you fight Kraven the Hunter as an extra villain.
