Last year’s Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions gave hope to friendly neighbourhood Spider-fans that, finally, the character was with a developer that understood the character, knew his history and what made him tick,and had some idea of how to use all th...
Interesting story and cinematic drama, Plenty of extras for Spidey fans, Two takes on Spider-Man, each with special powers...
Too much generic brawling, Too little web-swinging, wall-crawling exploration, Mixed graphics and uninspired level design...
Spider-Man: Edge of Time is no disaster, but it’s a peculiar choice not to build on the strong foundations of the previous Spider-Man game. Despite a decent background story and reasonable graphics, the gameplay feels generic and doesn’t work with the...

For years there have been good to great Spider-Man games that were based on sources diverse as movies, TV shows, and alternate universe comics. Still, over the last few years it seems like Spidey has been spinning his wheels more than his webs. 2010’s...
Interresting premise, Best looking ingame SpiderMan costume to date, Fun dialogue between Spideys...
Boring level design, Lame enemies, Fails to live up to potential...

Launching in the same time-frame as the highly anticipated Batman: Arkham City, another superhero game, Spiderman: Edge of Time (EoT) swung its way onto our radar. It sure starts off promisingly enough, with attractive graphics and some excellent voice...

Superhero games often carry a stigma of simply being a way to cash-in on fans of a particular franchise. There have been few games in past years that have challenged this preconception, such as Batman: Arkham Asylum and Transformers: War for Cybertron...

Today, I sat down and fired up my Xbox to check out Spider Man: Edge of Time. First thing I noticed about this game is that the plot is rather questionable. I know, I know, I’m being a purist here, but you can’t tell me just because Peter Parker dies...

So it seems that Activision has come to the conclusion so many other companies have about licensed properties: while releasing licensed games tends to make of money, releasing licensed games makes decent money and lets you focus your good developers...
Y’know, I don’t even know what to tell you here. I’m a huge fan of the Spider-Man character and franchise, I’ve enjoyed most of the games Activision has published featuring the character in the past decade or so, but even handed a game that features f...

Spider-Man Edge of Time does so many things right that X-Men Destiny did wrong, I won’t further compare the two. Instead, we’ll look at the game as we should, on the value of its own merits.Merits that are evident from the first moment of your entry in...

Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions was better than many licensed games on the market, but it certainly wasn't anything special. At the very least, it included a wide range of recognizable Spider-Man villains and a flowing combat system that, while fair...

With great power comes great responsibility. But along with the burden of protecting the innocent from those who prey upon them, the power that comes with being Spider-Man would surely bring a great deal of fun. To swing through the air as you hunted e...
Snappy writing and solid voice acting liven up the story, Pictureinpicture storytelling generates some urgency, Some powers are fun to use.
Combat is overly simple, Environments are often confining, Only about six hours long.
Spider-Man: Edge of Time tells an enjoyably absurd time-hopping tale, but stepping into the tights of its two heroes doesn't feel as empowering as it should...

Oh what a tangle web we weave, when first we practise to deceive. That sentiment, sadly, also applies to Edge of Time. It fails rather spectacularly to capitalise upon the potential of last year's Shattered Dimensions. Despite coming from the same deve...
Ultimately, Edge of Time feels like Shattered Dimensions DLC that has been misguidedly bloated into a full retail game. It’s definitely not spectacular, and certainly not amazing. Edge of Time is more a case of the Remarkably Disappointing Spider-Man.I...

It was just over a year ago when Beenox introduced us to the multi-dimensional world of Spider-Man in Shattered Dimension, giving gamers the rare opportunity to play as any of four unique versions of their favorite web-slinger. In Spider-Man: Edge of T...

Spider-Man has had a sorted past in the video game industry. For several years, players would suffer through some really half-assed experiences just to get their wall-crawler fix. Even when the PlayStation/Dreamcast era of Spider-Man brought us the fan...
