First off, swinging through the city is as fun as ever. At times, this journey can be an enjoyable ride. Your job is to take Spider-Man from before the infection, through the dark times, and to one of several endings. shows up, quarantines the city, and basically freaks out as all hell breaks loose. Soon, the city is filled with folks who are scaling buildings, kicking ass, and trying to eat Spidey's brains. The main portion of the goo sticks with Eddie Brock and the Venom alliance, but soon it turns out that the suit is creating symbiote-spitting pods that are infecting the civilians of New York. During a rather routine battle with Venom, the symbiote we all know and love fractures and part of it leaps to Spider-Man, once again endowing him with the black suit and all the strength and evilness that comes with it. Rather than being based on a movie or specific comic book arc, Spider-Man: Web of Shadows creates a completely unique tale set in the comic book world.

Now, I'm not telling you that it's a better game than God of War, Shadow of the Colossus, or any of the other hundreds of great games Sony's console brought us what I'm saying is that Spider-Man 2 was one of my favorite games to play. Think about that for a second - all time. Early last year, I stated that Spider-Man 2 was one of my favorite PlayStation 2 games of all time.
