I just rented this game and have only been playing for about 2 hours, but I think that people are being very unfair towards it.
The gameplay and graphics are incredible. It does take a little bit of getting used to, but once you learn how to use the lock-on feature to its fullest extent, the camera changes don't become so obtrusive, but works for you instead. There are some devastating moves in the game and being able to pick up cars and throw them as black Spidey is insanely fun. The swinging is the best I've seen since SM2, and it really is all about timing.
The only problems I have with the game are the VO for Spidey (he sounds like a little bitch) and the two freezes I've experienced so far. Other than that the game is incredibly fun and I think they really captured what it would be like to swing and fight like Spider-Man. I can't wait to pick it back up later tonight - will probably be at it until late in the morning. It's fucking addictive.
