I want to warn anyone who is thinking of getting Spiderman3 on any platform....

Don't buy it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is the glitchiest,shoddiest POS I have played in awhile.The list of bugs is ENORMOUS.It seems like the developers rushed it to coincide with the release of the movie and it shows.It is nowhere near as good as Spiderman2.

It sucks so bad I can't even recommend it for a rental.

I forgot how difficult/f*cking awesome it is.

I only played on the normal difficulty, but it was a great game. Challenging at parts (boss battles mainly) but not overly-hard like some games I've played. For example, Ninja Gaiden, which was amazing but way too hard for me.

I know what you mean. I played Ninja Gaiden and it was great, and the graphics were stunning. But I literally could not play it

then i am a soldier!!

i love challenging games--they can still manage to be fun in my opinion--and Ninja Gaiden Black is one of my alltime favorite games--I have beaten it up to the VERY HARD mode--no easy feat, many of you who couldn't finish Normal mode will know...

It's an amazing game, although the plot leaves a little to be desired.

I'm a reasonable man, get off my case

I loved SpiderMan 2 because of the free roam aspect of the game and the huge version of New York you were able to play in.The side missions got a little repetitive but I spent hours swinging through the city looking for skyscraper tokens,secret tokens,etc.The controls,camera and combat system were great,and the web-slinging was awesome.The only cons to the game besides repetitive side missions was the lack of good unlockable content,which for a game like was a shame.

3 is just a shell of that game,I was really disappointed with it,

Anyone into Spider-Man games, you HAVE TO PLAY ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN !!! Free-roaming type of game, the best super-hero game ever done in my humble opinion !!!

Awesome game,I love the cel-shading.I just wish you could play as Venom more.

If you liked that,and like GREAT comic-related video games try out The Incredible Hulk:Ultimate Destruction.Very cool game,you get to free roam,great graphics,enviroments and a sweet control system.The Hulk has some awesome upgradable moves and nearly everything is destructible.

Highly recommended.

I've been playing Company of Heroes again as during the week there was a patch which enabled it to utilise Direct X 10 which is a part of Vista to improve the visuals, whilst the graphics are significantly better on ful settings, in order to get it to run at a decent frame rate I have to use medium settings which look worse than the top setting in Direct X 9. Some serious optimisation is needed. Disapprove

I've also started playing Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 and Supreme Commander again, as well as continuing to play EVE Online which is the only Massively Multiplayer game I've tried worth sticking with.

Aditionally I've preordered Enemy Territory: Quake Wars Big%20smile

I know it seems like a witch hunt,but I do think something needs done.My son,who is 9,has friends who have played GTA:SA since it came out.Now,I love all the GTA games,but I am an adult.I would never let my son play a game like that right now.

One of my sons playmates brought over The Punisher video game for them to play and I had to flat out say NO to that.This kid is 8 years old,have you ever played the game?You can interrogate people while holding their head in a drill press,or jam their head into a fish tank full of pirahna(sp),etc.

I think there needs to be some control here,and the video game stores should be heavily penalized for selling games like this to minors.Blame should also be placed on their parents for purchasing the game;or letting their children buy it,in the first place.

However,I think felony charges are a bit drastic.
