Spider-man, Return of the sinister six is the less common of the two games for the Master System that star the Marvel Comics hero. I'm sure most of you will have heard of him, especially so since the big budget films of the past few years were a big success across the globe. As you can imagine, the game is a standard platform game with the end of level baddies being the horrible bunch below Spider-Man on the intro screen. The first Spider-Man game is widely regarded as a fine game, so how does the second instalment stand up? Frustration is the name of the game here. I could liken the experience to Leeds United fans watching their team playing the first five games of this season (2007/2008 in case anybody should happen to come and read this review in years to come!), five wins and still bottom of the table. How enraged that would make me - I'm sure our own forum member Psychofox will know what I mean as he is in the unfortunate situation of supporting the poor wretches week in week out! So why is it so frustrating? Well right from the first level, Spider-man can climb up some walls, but not others. You'll be going through the levels and just stop since some objects you can walk straight past and others you just walk into even though the depth looks identical, so you have no idea what is going to stop you. The web you can fire to swing with is incredible short and if you don't have the 'web-balls' or whatever the hell they are then heaven help you because you have the kick that is just luck if you can do it, and the punch that is slow and you have to be virtually on top of your enemy before it does anything! You'll be hit by bullets and lasers just coming into the screen from nowhere as you can't yet see the enemy giving you almost no chance to dodge them. Can you sense that I'm getting frustrated and slightly enraged just thinking about it already? […] Overall, Spider-man and the Sinister Six is a game that should have been very good. It's well designed and presented, but the minor flaws with never knowing when to jump over objects, and the major problems with the unresponsive controls spoil the game beyond redemption. If you're looking for a fun Spider-man game, stick to the first one. - www.smstributes.co.uk
