There cannot be a Spidey fan alive that hasn't seen the stunning movie trailer for the new film, but rather less is known about the accompanying game. It will feature a free roaming environment similar to the previous games though, which is no surprise considering how popular they are and how most subsequent superhero games have reused the same concept. It's also known that almost the entire movie cast will be lending their vocal talents to the game, including Tobey Mcguire, Kirsten Dunst, Thomas Haden Church, James Franco, Topher Grace and Bryce Dallas Howard. The main villains of the game will, like the movie, be Sandman, Venom and the new Green Goblin. However several other minor Spider-Man villains will also appear from the comics, including Shriek and the mysterious Dragon Boss. More information will undoubtedly show up as the movie's release date grow closer but a teaser trailer of the in-game graphics for Spidey himself suggest that this will be one of the most impressive next gen movies license so far.

 Rushed!! July 12, 2007

When i bought spiderman for the Wii i thought it would be pretty good but when i started playing it i could just tell that it was rushed to come out at the same time as the film which is a shame as they could have done so many different things to improve it- extra attention to the buildings for one and more thought into some of the missions which i feel are aimed to the younger ages. I understand that it is aimed to kids aswell but having to retrieve a bomb and take it to a police man around the corner is just pointless- but what makes me laugh about that is you don't hand it to him you drop it on the floor and i am sure spiderman wouldn't be so careless (if he was real that is).
The graphics are a bit untidy aswell more so when spidderman seems to make himself invisible when climbing builds.
If they put some extra time into the game they could have easly put a 3 second video in to show you spidermad handing it to him instead.
So many things are missing for me to enjoy this game and that's why when i bought it for 40 i returned it the next day.
Buy it for 40= NO!!
buy it for 30= If your a big spiderman fan but don't set your expections too high.
Buy it for 20= Worth buying if you fancy a change,
But if not save your mony!!
Promising idea falls short!!! June 21, 2007

The idea is sound...the gameplay with the wiimote just doesnt work though. I imagine on other consoles this could be quite good however for 40 i felt extremely let down!
 Great fun and relaxing... June 21, 2007

I have always liked the spiderman series and still do, this serves it well,
my favourite thing is swinging around the city which is really smooth and relaxing.
The graphics are great and the cutscenes are fantastic!
You have quite a lot to do because of the four gangs that try to take over the city.
I got through the game quite easily on the easier mode but i'm trying the harder settings.
Using the black suit is pretty neat and the story is pretty good, although, the combat is quite unspecific, but the combos and upgrades are really cool.
So, in a short and hurried review I would definitely recommend.
NOT THAT BAD!! May 20, 2007

Based on the feature film of the same name, Spider-Man 3 allows players to experience the actions of heroic red suit Spider-Man, and for the first time ever, his darker, more mysterious black suit persona. Set in a 3D side scrolling world and delivering complete touch screen handling, players must draw upon Spider-Man's vast array of moves, attacks and upgrades as they choose their path and embark on a wide variety of city-based missions and multiple movie-based and original story arcs. Additionally, Spider-Man 3 for the Nintendo DS features local wireless multiplayer gameplay featuring with a variety of modes enabling awesome two-player head-to-head challenges like Brawler, Hot Potato, Target Practice, and Combo Challenge.Features:
Welcome to the dark side - For the first time ever, control the legendary symbiotic Black Suit, which magnifies Spider-Man's strength, agility, durability and web powers, but the power comes at a price. The longer gamers play as black suited Spider-Man, the more they risk losing the good in him.
Relive the movie and go beyond as you choose - In a unique mixture of open-ended gameplay and linear story progression, players can traverse and protect massive, wide open sections of New York City, battle villains from the feature film, or embark on a variety of original story arcs in whatever order they choose when they choose.
Touching is good - Maximizing the capabilities of the Nintendo DS, players will experience Spider-Man's unique abilities as never before by controlling both red-suited and black-suited Spider-Man's movement and combat with a multitude of organic touch screen gestures and motions.
Become the Spider-Man of your dreams - Utilizing an in-depth hero points reward system, players can fully customize and upgrade Spider-Man maximizing his powers and abilities.
With liberty and multiplayer for all - A variety of local wireless multiplayer gameplay modes such as Brawler, Hot Potato, Target Practice, and Combo Challenge allow for two players to face off in head-to-head Spider-Man action.
I spy with my little eye - Within the game, various hidden collectibles are waiting to be discovered. Collecting items result in additional hero points and bonus materials.
 A tarnish on the films, the license, and the console... May 8, 2007

Now I am a Spiderman fan and I loved the game of the second film (on ps2), however I have found this game is unplayable.
I'll start with the good bits:
1) my experience of the wii controls for swinging is that they are a good laugh once you get the hang of them.
2) J.K. Simmons, the best portrayal of any character from the film.
3) The black suit, a nice touch to have it on demand but at a price.
That is it for good bits, really there are only really 3 good things about this game.
Now for the bad:
1) the graphics are poor, now I know the wii is not as powerful as the other next gen consoles, but this is nowhere near the standard of the second game on ps2 or other wii games... spiderman disappears into wall he is climbing, buildings are bland and look like flat and drab blocks.
2) combat is difficult and unspecific, the range of moves is poor, and there is a lack of webbing up enemies.
4) The range of missions is very poor, go here collect this from goons, pass chemical weapons/ guitar/ pie shipment to random person on street.
5) The npcs are poorly acted with hammy accents and lines (and i mean really bad).
6) Finally and most importantly I have been through two copies of this game on the wii and they have both crashed during the first boss fight with Dr Conners/ The Lizard. I have tried restarting the game and playing on a friends console. As this mission is required to progress I am getting rid of my copy as I can't get any further.
In summary this is a real shame the game could have been so much better, I could even forgive some of the graphic/ gameplay issues if the story was more polished and it was actually possible to progress past the dr conners boss fight.
