The best Spider-Man game yet, but still has flaws.

The game is really a blast. Each dimension has its differences, but enough similarity that it doesn't take too much to learn how to play each one. The game is split up into 3 stages, each with a 30 to 50 minutes level for each dimension. You can play these in any order and it won't mess with anything, which is a nice touch. Through the 12 levels, 4 of them really stuck out as amazing. The Sandman and Juggernaut levels for the Amazing Universe were both well-made and very fun to play, the Goblin level in the Noir Universe is a worthy finale for that realm, and obviously, fighting Carnage is exactly who it would've been. hard and intense the whole time. Truly my favorite. And all the 2099 levels are fun, they're probably my favorite realm due to its amazing graphical presentation and style, but none of the levels are stand-outs. Unfortunately, this game has bad levels. Such as Kraven, Vulture, and Deadpool. The Ultimate Realm and 2099 are the best of the bunch. Ultimate has the most stable levels with the least problems and the Rage is awesome! And 2099 has its glitches and camera problems at times, but are the most out going levels. And the closed off levels versus the open world style of old Spider-Man games, actually makes it better.
Pros: Amazing presentation for all the dimensions, especially 2099. Great differences in combat and level design for each realm, the Web of Destiny is a super cool addition, levels are great, especially Carnage. Videos and character bios are a plus. Voice acting is perfect. Web zip is great, and the character designs are top notch as are the videos.
Cons: Bad camera at times, some bad and just annoying levels, and several annoying glitches in the camera and gameplay. And the final level against Mysterio is just bad. Glitchy, long, and dumb.
This game is worth your time, defiantly a rent, and a for sure buy for hard-core comic nerds.I'll be buying it, just be prepared for controller throwing anger at the finale. Which is a shame.
