Spider-Man

Movie based games normally have a long history of being just avenged or awful.

Spider-Man 2002 has the thin line of being that. The game is based off the 2002 Spider-Man motion picture.

However the game just seems broken mostly. While the game does follow the story line of the film it is however like an different take of the film.

The story follows Peter Parker Voiced by Tobey Maguire who reprise his role from the film which is a interesting take plus Willem Dafoe also reprise his role as Norman Osborn/Green Goblin. Bruce Campbell provide the voice of the Tour Guide and his performance alone is what sold the game.

The game while following the story line of the movie also features villains like Shocker, Scorpion and Vulture to make the game feel original in terms of villains.

But the game doesn't have the feel of fun which is what the most important of any video game is for it be fun and playable.

The Graphics in the game do look great and you can get to see the whole city of New York as you swing into action. The Voice acting is very good and the music is very strong in the game.

The controls however are a mix bag I wish the game was like Spider- Man 2000 which is a very good video game.

So the results is the game is great to look at and listen to but not much for playing, only play it if you are a huge fan of Spider-Man but the game is just broken to me.

I give Spider-Man 2002 an 6 out of 10

I played the first level of this game on X-Box, in Target. What did I get, possibly the best game experience from a movie/game tie-in. Not Only do Willem Dafoe and Tobey Magurie reprise their roles as Norman Osborn/Green Goblin and Peter Parker/Spiderman, It is possibly the best game I have ever played on a X-Box, buy it now!!

There's no open world city to explore, which is hard to get over for those who're more used to the follow up. It's got decent gameplay, good combat, graphics have aged surprisingly well, and overall is pretty decent. It's just hard to go back and play this when you've been spoiled by some of the later Spider-Man games, especially the PS4 iteration.

This game is great. Not only do Tobey Maguire and Willem Dafoe lend their voices, but the animation is amazing, the scenery of New York City is so cool, and there is lots of cool extras on the game too. It's also kid-friendly.

I recommend this game to everyone!

This game plays like that game as far as the combat and swinging is concerned, however the story is lifted from the first Spider-man movie. Well a lot of it is anyways as there are a lot more enemies to face than just the Green Goblin here. Well not to many more, mainly you get to fight The Shocker who seems to be the old standby in these games, Scorpian, and the Vulture. I think in the Xbox version you get to fight a couple of other bad guys one of which is Kraven the Hunter and the second of which I do not know. Tobey and William lend their voices to this game, however Bruce Campbell as the tour guide steals the show as he had me cracking up. The game is good for the most part, I just thought it followed the movie a bit to much and like in the Spider-man game for the playstation one Spider-man seems to be swinging on a web that is attached to absolutely nothing. The fights with the characters are fun as I enjoyed fighting the Shocker and Green Goblin the most. The fights in this game with the Green Goblin top the fights with Doc Ock in the next game. Still the levels on the roofs are a bit of a pain at times, you get stuck in that stupid costume longer than I care for, if they were going to follow the movie so closely why did they not incorporate the fight with Bonesaw in the main storyline of the game, and there are various other little annoyances in the game to be found as some of the fights and stealth stuff gets on one's nerves. Still, at least this game did not ignore Spidey's strength like part II and III did. Though both those games are the superior web swinging games.
