this game ROCKSAug 18, 2004
THIS GAME IS A THE PERFECT GAME FOR SPIDER-MAN VIDEO GAME LOVERS! IT'S A LITTLE HARD AT FIRST, BUT SURE ROCKS WHEN U GET THE HANG OF IT. ONE BAD THING ABOUT THIS GAME IS THAT U ONLY GET 2 WEBS AY FIRST, ZIP-LINE AND IMPACT. U HAVE TO BUY POWER-UPS LATER. THE COOL THING IS THAT THERE'S 3D PARTS THROUGHOUT THE GAME! RIGHT NOW I'M IN THE SEWERS AND TRYING TO CATCH THE LIZARD. BUT THE THING IS THAT U FIND KEYS AND U GET LOCKED IN A ROOM AND U HAVE TO HIT LEVERS TO STOP WATER FROM DROWNING YOU.
GRAPHICS:A
GAME PLAY:B
THE GAME ITSELF:A
THE BAD THING(S)
CAN'T BUST OPEN LOCKED DOORS LIKE THE REAL SPIDER-MAN WOULD IN THE MOVIES.
U JUST HAVE TO BUY THIS GAME, IT'S WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOTE, STOPPING THE BOMB THREATS AND STOPPING SHOCKER IS VERY HARD!

Another good webhead gameJun 29, 2004
By Brian Reaves Being the first reviewer of this game to have actually PLAYED it, I enjoyed it. If you have Spider-Man:Mysterio's Menace, then you'll be pretty familiar with the gameplay. There is a 3-d section of the game that's pretty cool as you choose levels and missions, but otherwise it's a standard side-scroller. The first level has you delivering pizzas. Unfortunately, they give you no idea where your delivery is supposed to go, so you frantically search all the buildings inside and out to find them (HINT: there is a family seated in an apartment in the last building waiting for the pizza. You can only reach them through the air ducts). That's a little frustrating, but the rest of the game gets better. I personally hate the "Chase the bad guy" idea, and this one makes you do just that as you chast Doc Ock through the city. Again, more frustrating "do this again" times, but you can make it.
The biggest letdown is the lack of any vocal work in it. "Max Payne" for GBA showed us it could be done, I just wish the Spider-Man team had taken advantage of it.
Mostly a good (if somewhat repetitive) game. You'll probably like it.

Havent seen a good title for my GBS in a hot oneJul 01, 2004
Finally I found a game worth my precious batteries' litle lives. This game is sooooooo good. I didnt know my Game Boy was capable of such brilliant graphics or awesoem gameplay. My kid always wants to play but I can't find it in me to give up my turn. This game is the best game I have playe din quite some time and is definitely well worth every penny I spent on it. I goes everywhere with me and I can't stop playing it. Activision makes the best games. Check out Shrek 2 as well, that game is great too! Not as fun as spidey, but a def great game in its own right. Take care, comb your hair!
