Spider-man: Friends Or Foe

Genre: Superhero / Platform
Score: 7/10




Synopses: While chilling on the roofs of New York, Spider-man gets attacked by all of his favorite enemies. After a brief confrontation all of them get kidnapped by Phantoms. Nick Fury, S.H.I.E.L.D boss then asks Spider-man to help find out who is behind the Phantoms and why they need all the Villains.

After a finishing some missions and saving the villain, he becomes one of the team and a Partner as you go through the rest of the game.

The Good: I loved the way the Graphics were used in this game. It leans more to a Comic Book look than a Realistic looking game. The Characters and Environments are more jagged and Sharp, unlike the Realistic Fuzzy and rounded look. (did that make sense?).

The Dialogue is awesome. It's really witty and keeps you entertained.

Being able to use the Villains is also a fantastic idea that was used quite successfully. This is especially cool if you are playing 2 players. Each Character has it's own Upgrades and Powers.

The Bad: the game is a bit short I would say. It's also very very easy. Especially when you get Spider-man upgraded a little bit. It's actually a bore winning so much. The game also is on the verge of becoming a little repetitive, which is never a good thing!

If you are a Spider-man fan, obviously this should be in your collection, but it has nothing for serious gamers.
