Your performance is measured against others' online with game currency up for grabs. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 features an ' Arena' mode which is a fun free-for-all romp in which you must defeat as many baddies as you can before you die.

Side missions are fun at first, but they soon become repetitive and a bit dull, which is frustrating when you need to play through them to earn coins. The stories in each chapter are nicely woven around the dastardly antics of a particular villain, making the story mode a joy to play. Many of the famous bad guys from the comics and movies feature in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, including Electro, Venom, and the Green Goblin.

Although it's a paid game, you may find yourself having to make payments - or at least 'grind' by repetitively playing side missions - in order to defeat certain opponents to progress through the story.

There are side missions which allow you to earn credits to purchase items or unlock new skills.

The action in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is essentially based around whizzing above the city on your webs, then splashing down to kick some butt or help out someone in need.
