Spider-Man: Web of Shadows

From comic strips, television, movies and now video games Spider-Man has definitely gotten his share of popularity. The game that was developed by Shaba and Treyarch is all about saving New York City who had just been invaded. Invaded by a symbiote where they are capturing citizens and preying on them, and believe it or not including Spider-Man himself was captured. And this now gave way to the black Spider-Man, the rise of the super villain Venom.

What you would love about the game is not just Spidey’s web slinging abilities but the fighting style as well as it would allow you to take control of the game’s outcome. As Spider-Man moves with utmost flexibility, what has been added in the graphics is the fluidity in motion allowing perfect movement of each of the game character combining combat from motion resulting in a very brilliant game.

Let us take a peak on the four (4) main characters of the Web of Shadows:

Red Spider-Man

The guy is Peter Parker who gained his superpower ability when he was bitten by a spider. At the early stage of him having superpowers, he used it as a means to earn money, playing wrestling. One day, with his powers, he ignored a crime and only to find out that the criminals had killed his uncle. This incident changed Parker and from then on he never let innocent’ suffer again.

Black Spider-Man

The black Spider-Man was a result of Parker being attacked by Venom. He became even more stronger but costing a lot of damage to the community. And now, we know that he could battle it with his own symbiote suit.

Luke Cage

Luke was imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit at a young age. As his family abandoned him, he joined a secret military project. Moreover he accepted an experimental project in the military to be immune of all illnesses. But due to some personal interest with the group, it went wrong and resulted in a power no one has seen before. Good thing, he used his power for good working as private investigator.

Vulture

The guy is Adrian Toomes who was abandoned by his business partner and left him with nothing but a flying harness. He then used this flying harness to fight and kill everyone without any mercy.

What makes this game even more compelling is the ability to team up with other Marvel characters such as Wolverine, Moonknight and many more. It is available in PC, PS2, Playstation 3, PSP, Nintendo WII, and Nintendo DS.
