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.

Collector interest

An open-world action game from Spider-Man, where the choice between black and red suit bends powers and the story's tone, one of the better-received entries in the series on this generation. Its Korean version, less common than the Western runs, interests fans of the superhero's games on PS3. Its interest owes to this status as a strong entry in the license and to the scarcity of a little-distributed local pressing.
