An open-world Spider-Man game with solid swinging mechanics and an interesting symbiote twist. Aged but still entertaining for fans, even if the story is forgettable. An honest entry in the franchise.

Spider-Man - Web of Shadows (PS3) price, value & rarity
Spider-Man Web of Shadows, published by Activision in 2008, is an open-world PS3 title still common but caught in the revaluation of Activision-licensed Spider-Man games, now pulled from digital stores over lapsed rights. That digital unavailability shifts all demand onto the multilingual PAL disc, supporting its sealed price. Its value comes from being a title no longer obtainable except as a boxed physical copy.
