The new Spider-Man game thread gave me this idea. Rate your favorite to least favorite Spidey games. What do you want to see carried over to the new one and what can you live without forever?
The order I'd put my Spider-Man games are:
1. Spider-Man Web of Shadows-Best combat in a Spider-Man game ever, the only Spidey game that lets you actually fight just like Spider-Man, and possibly best swinging. Great story (not executed great though) and I love fighting next to Wolverine and switching in and out of the black suit and coming up with my own combos. Moments in the game that I actually talk about after it's over. Like the darksuit choice after beating symbiote Wolverine! Freaken crazy! I also thought the swinging in the game was great. Oh and I'm kind of a pole swinging ****e. So any Spidey game that can let you swing around poles is at least fun for me in that regard. And you could do it horizontally and vertically!!!! Annoying voice actor for Spidey though. He did a good job only when he was being "dark Spidey". Best Spidey graphics so far, great music, and completely destructable environments.
2. Spider-Man 3-Good story that is chock-full of Spider-Man lore. Birth of Venom, Sandman, Green Goblin, Lizard, and even a few good Kingpin/DeWolf/cop stories. Decent combat, most realistic swinging, I actually liked the button-cinamatics or whatever they're called. They really show off Spidey's agility. Great arena mode, ok race missions. Fun Peter missions and the most fun achievements out of any 360 game I have (500 point photo baby!). Side crime actually has a story to it. And you can travel from the tops of New York to the sewers and subways. The city was filled with smoke for some reason making the graphics less impressive and the game was buggy as heck sometimes. Plus the sky diving parts were a joke as was the playable Goblin.
3. Ultimate Spider-Man-Best story out of all of them. The presentation was amazing, as was the comicbooky graphics. And it was a blast playing as Venom. Why wasn't this my number one? The combat was terrible. And most of the missions boiled down to chasing someone, or running from someone. And no pole swinging...
4. Spider-Man 2-Ok combat, great swinging, terrible graphics, and goofy as heck story line with Mystero. I remember actually fighting a clown in a fun house, and having to prove that Spidey wasn't a fake who actually doesn't have superpowers. Though I liked the fake space alien invasion part. This showed us the first freeroam Spidey but had alot to improve on. Good game.
5. Spider-Man PS1-Fun as heck at the time. Still have this one too. Everything in it didn't date well though. Combat, graphics, music, and even storyline are all pretty bad compared to todays standards. But having played it recently it still had it's fun parts. Like running from the cops, or my favorite part running from Monster Ock.
6. Spider-Man:the Movie game-Game was ok on every level. Not really fun at all anymore. At least Spidey on the PS1 still has fun parts.
7. Spider-Man:Friend or Foe-Subpar in everyway. I thought the multiplayer was decent, and some of the things Spidey said was funny and some of his moves looked pretty good. The opening cinema looked great. But the game was extremely repetitive and boring. But I actually beat the game.
8. Spider-Man 2 Enter Electro-Unlike Spider-Man FoF, I have not beaten this game. I still have it and I have never beaten it because I thought it was just too darn boring. That's saying alot considering I actually ended up beating Spider-Man FoF, but maybe that was just because it was fun getting achievements. Who knows.
