Our verdict

Spider-Man 3 for the PS2 offers a wonderful dose of nostalgia for fans of the Sam Raimi trilogy. While the gameplay and graphics are noticeably dated, swinging through the city remains highly entertaining at a very budget-friendly price.

Reasons to buy

  • Great nostalgic value for fans of the movie
  • Web-swinging still feels surprisingly fluid
  • Play as both the classic and the black Spider-Man suit
  • Very budget-friendly price of €15

Watch-outs

  • Dated graphics and camera issues
  • Missions can quickly feel repetitive
  • Heavy reliance on frustrating Quick Time Events (QTEs)
Advertentie

Swinging through a nostalgic New York

Even though the game originally launched in 2007, the core web-swinging mechanics remain a blast. You can freely explore the city, dive off skyscrapers, and wear the iconic red and black suits. For fans of the movie, the atmosphere is instantly recognizable.

Dated tech and gameplay hurdles

As a retro title, you have to keep the limitations of the PlayStation 2 in mind. The graphics are blocky by modern standards, and the camera can struggle during hectic combat. Additionally, the repetitive side missions might test your patience over time.
