Most of Spidey's earlier outings ended up being ported lớn handheld devices at some point, so it wasn't too surprising when Gameloft released a mobile-only Spider-Man game in 2010. Understandably, perhaps, Ultimate Spider-Man: Total Mayhem was nowhere near as ambitious as some of the console games that preceded it, but its simplicity arguably worked in its favor.

Rather than attempting khổng lồ create a huge open-world adventure, the developer opted lớn go down the beat-em-up route instead.

Much like the movie on which it was based, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 failed even khổng lồ live up to lớn the low standards mix by its predecessor, with the PS4 và Xbox One versions of the game both rocking sub-50 scores on Metacritic. That's not to say that there are no redeeming qualities, however, with the game's huge mở cửa world arguably offering a slightly nicer sandbox in which spidey enthusiasts can play.

Sadly, technical issues plagued console ports of the game, with the PS3 và Xbox 360 versions, in particular, struggling with frame rate issues & occasional pop-in problems. Some have speculated that the trò chơi may have been rushed out to lớn coincide with the release of the movie, which would certainly explain the overall lack of polish. Still, for those playing on PC or newer consoles, the trò chơi can still be a lot of fun in short bursts.

Spider-Man 3 is far from the best Spiderman game of the last few decades, but still gets a lot of things right. For one thing, the sprawling sandbox in which players are placed is beautifully rendered và provides a level of detail not found in earlier Spider-Man titles. The combat's decent too and the voice-acting is usually on point.

Where the trò chơi falls a little short is in its story campaign, which is propped up by a weak narrative và ridiculously short. There's still a lot of fun lớn be had with the trò chơi though, particularly the Wii version, which does an excellent job of integrating motion controls into the classic Spider-Man experience.

Modern Spider-Man games may be all about those big open worlds, but many of the best Spider-Man games from the nineties were side-scrolling platformers with beat 'em up elements. Granted, this was largely down khổng lồ the technical limitations of the era's hardware, but the games are no less enjoyable for it. In fact, there's perhaps an argument khổng lồ be made that the games' linear nature made it a lot easier for players lớn focus on unleashing their inner spider.

The Amazing Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin isn't the best Spider-Man trò chơi to be released in the twentieth century, but it's still well worth a play. The wall-crawling & platforming are surprisingly good, as too is the game's combat. It would have been nice khổng lồ have had a little more of the latter, as some of the stages are a little lacking when it comes to lớn enemies to beat up on, but this is just a minor complaint when weighed up against the game's positive qualities.

Those looking for a challenging game may be better served elsewhere, though, for anyone seeking a Spider-Man trò chơi with excellent controls and fantastic visuals, The Amazing Spider-Man provides a sturdy option. Whether through exploring the streets of thành phố new york or beating up on some of the city's many thugs, the trò chơi makes it surprisingly easy lớn get lost in Peter Parker's world.

As with some of the other Spider-Man games of the era, the game's narrative does let it down a little, both due to lớn its lack of depth and, at times, its repetitive nature. Some of the side quests can seem incredibly samey too, but, for the first few hours, at least, there's more than enough to distract from this.

In terms of crafting a compelling story or showing off Spider-Man's incredible abilities, Spider-Man: Friend or Foe is a bit of a failure.

Even more impressive is that it arrived just a few months after the GBA's launch, yet remained the best Spiderman trò chơi on the system.

The often-forgotten follow-up to lớn Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, Spider-Man: Edge Of Time wasn't quite as solid as the original, nor did it offer as much variation in terms of gameplay.
