There is also no variety in the mini games either. The swinging is also worse as instead of just blazing through the city doing all sorts of cool moves it is almost as if you are fighting the controls to make Spidey chase someone and Venom doesn't swing at all, but he does jump rather well. Spidey doesn't have as many moves as he did in the previous two games based on the movies. Quite frankly I will take "The Amazing Spider-man" video game for the PS1 over this game any day in terms of fighting. The boss fights themselves are underwhelming when you are Spidey thanks to the fact he can't lift and throw stuff or use his webbing in most of the fights and a bit more fun when you are Venom. There is no variety to the missions at all. Chase villain through city, fight, repeat. And speaking of boss fights, they are all the same. I want 20 or more boss fights not 7 or 8. You have your array of villains here, but once again not enough for me.Spidey has dozens and dozens of enemies why not use as many as possible? Let's face it the video game systems are more powerful now they can handle a large collection of villains. Once again we have the Grand Theft Auto influence of the free roaming environment that makes you have the ability to swing around town, but other than Grand Theft Auto it actually seems to shorten dramatically the story of any other game that uses this technique. Once again Spidey's strength is ignored, but here I am thinking the Spider-man from the Ultimate series is not in the same strength class as the one I read in the comics as he has trouble holding onto a car while the one from the comics I read can hurl a car quite easily. Based on Spidey comics I have never read the villains and heroes from the most part look and act differently than any in the comic book I read with the exceptions of Spider-man, Venom, and Silver Sable. I thought it was okay, but a step backward quite frankly from Spider-man two.

This is my first video game review, but I figured I would write one on this game cause maybe I can save someone 49.95.
