Spider-Man

200035/100
Hack and slash/Beat 'em upAdventure
The 2000 Spider-Man's appeal lies in its surprisingly robust combat system and the pure joy of web-slinging across a fully realized 3D Manhattan. The game's blend of brawler action, with its satisfying combos and enemy variety, and open-world traversal provided a then-unprecedented sense of freedom. It captured the spirit of the comics through its campy tone, memorable boss battles, and the sheer fun of embodying the wall-crawler.
