There are 42 missions in Spider-Man 3 that draw from the movie (Sandman, New Goblin, etc.), the comics (Scorpion, Kraven, so on) and the videogame's original content (three gangs are running amok in New York). You throw a web - it comes out lax, hits something and goes taut in Spidey's hand - and set off to bring justice to the city, which is no small task in the sandbox environment.
Activision says the city is 2.5 times bigger than the one in Spider-Man 2, and as the sun bathes the towering buildings in light and you somersault into different sections of the sprawling metropolis without any load times, it's easy to get swept away in the visual upgrade. Lovers'+spat+over+the+streets+of+Manhattan. You get the basics down while saving some folks from a fire, and you're let loose in New York. Ol' web-head can now web zip with one button his Spider-Sense turns the screen black and white while displaying enemies in red, allies in green and objectives in yellow and Spider-Reflexes allow the wall-crawler to slow time and counter attacks with a single button press. The game opens up with Bruce Campbell acting as our familiar narrator and walking Spidey through his new-found controls. Just like Pete's decent into darkness, Spider-Man 3 goes south so slowly that it's hard to notice at first.
At one point, I drew back my arm to hurl the controller into my beloved TV screen and caught a reflection of myself. In a flash, the well-to-do dork who sleeps with a Superman comforter was gone, and I became a tweaked-out, curse-word-spewing maniac who pounded on his desk and screamed to the heavens as I was screwed over by cheap bosses and badly-designed interiors. Activision and Treyarch nailed the darker concept with Spider-Man 3 the game because when I picked up the 360 controller, I lost myself to rage. His testosterone levels spike he gets meaner and more aggressive. When Spidey puts on the symbiote - that's the black suit for those of you who don't speak geek - Peter Parker goes from a wisecracking hero to a skull-cracking jerk.
