16 Apr 2002 - Game Boy Advance
The Game Boy Advance version of the Spider-Man movie tie-in.
In 2002, a major motion picture based on the classic comic book co-created by Stan Lee was released. This conversion of the movie to the video game world is loosely based on the storyline and characters of the movie. The Green Goblin is the main villain here, and as Peter Parker the player must defy gravity using spider crawl and web-slinging abilities to track down Spidey's nemesis through the skyscrapers of New York City.
Tie-in of the first Spider-Man film for the Game Boy Advance.
The game is a lazy platform with some ""collectibles"" and some kind of plot wich diverge from the film its based on, which lead Spider-Man through some bad designed levels where the players has to deal with characters which looks ripped off from some other random GBA game, an atrocious sound design and boring search missions.
The boss themselves aren't as bad, but they can easily be beaten in a matter of seconds when you figure out hkw to deal damage to 'em without getting killed.
The third-person section are extremely rare and confusionary, but I gotta say they are impressive for the console, at least. Too bad hitboxes in all the game are a mess, so you'll find yourself diyng even without touching an enemy.
