Although, Activision has now confirmed that after collecting 500 pages, the remaining 200 pages pop on your map as you swing by them. I have more than 400, and now that they're getting harder to find, I discover my dedication to collecting them waning. Trouble is, there are 700 pages to collect. See, there are collectable comic pages hidden all over the city that unlock real comic books for you to read in the extras menu. That's one of the reasons the comic pages are so annoying/brilliant in The Amazing Spider-Man. The Amazing Spider-Man speaks to that OCD tendency to get every last mission off the checklist - to have a clean quest log. Like farming experience points in your favorite RPG, I dug swinging around New York City and knocking off the icons on my map. Without a doubt, this diminishes the "Oh my god, I'm Spider-Man" feel the game is going for, but it doesn't make performing the actions any less fun.
The first time you return an escaped mental patient to the police is going to be identical to the last time you do it. But, be prepared to repeat these missions over and over again you’ll hear the same one-liners from Spidey and the police you're helping over and over again. From stopping robberies to rescuing infected civilians to participating in races for an extreme sports promoter, there’s a lot to do in The Amazing Spider-Man.

You're free to web-swing from one end of the borough to the other and tackle the random crimes and activities you come across. Spider-Man once again exists in an open world version of Manhattan. “But these thrills are the same thing over and over again, and the same can be said for life outside the storyline. The fact that Spider-Man can "Web Retreat" whenever he's discovered and go back to being hidden even in a brightly lit room makes the stealth stuff a bit too easy, but it didn't stop me from enjoying the takedowns. There's something intoxicating about zipping in, punching a sniper in the chest, and webbing his friends before kicking a dumpster into all of them. But neither of those things kept me from slinking around and beating up bad guys over and over again. The camera can wig out when Spidey's on the ceiling and the action just doesn't look that hot as the animations and graphics aren't extremely polished (overall, the game doesn't look like a high-end HD title). If you're more inclined to crawl on the ceiling unnoticed, Spider-Man can execute stealth takedowns where he puts villains in web cocoons and brings them back to the ceiling (theoretically to leave there until they starve or the web dissolves and they plummet back to the floor breaking all their bones). The formula makes it easy to look like a superhero and take out a roomful of baddies with webs and signature moves for flair. Engaging in some acrobatic fisticuffs raises your combo meter, and when the spider-sense goes off around Spider-Man's noggin, you know to tap the reversal button and stylishly take out the attacker.

Much like the Arkham series of Batman games, Spidey can confront enemies head on or attack from the shadows. Sadly, most of the plot points are ho-hum - with the exception of a truly fascinating run-in with Felicia Hardy - and it's all about the action, which rewards you with XP for spider-upgrades. The movie's actors didn't lend their voices to this game, but the cast that is here is solid and actually delivers some cool moments for fans. “Through more than 20 missions involving Rhino and the Iguana, you web and wail on bad guys.
