So I went to The Block yesterday and I ate at Johnny Rocket's (which was surprisingly not that good). Later I went to GameStop where *dun dun dulelelelelelelun* Spider-Man: Friend Or Foe was aviliable for... $30!!! I got it, thinking it was a helluva deal.

I got home and put it in the ol' PS3 and commenced playing it.
"Aunt Jeminma! It's Prowler!!"

The game's extremely simple: Spider-Man's employed by S.H.I.E.L.D. to save the world from a Venom virus. Along the way, heroes and villians are to be recruited for your cause *record scratch* ...What?

Yeah, cool, right? ...Nope. It's friggin' annoying. Bastards can't be beside you without respawning. Oh, and the playing gets extremely repetitive...

Run here. Bad guys appear; waste 'em assholes. Run here. More bad guys appear; whip their asses. Walk across this bridge. Even more bad guys appear; screw it, it's not like more will appear after this... right? Aw, dammit...

Tokens are given for everything and are need for everything! Upgrades for webs and characters... But if you die, (yes, you will die) guess what's needed to respawn you or sidekick's ass? Tokens!

"But, say Kevin, what if you run out of tokens?"
Good question, random guy. A small percentage of your tokens will be taken each time you die, but apperantly you cannot lose.

I swear to you, I paused the game (or so I thought) to watch what was on TV. The Last Samurai later, I go from TV to Video and "WHAT THE HELL?!?!?!" I'm still alive with every enemy dead... I assume the retarded-ass AIs just fell off the cliff or something but my Spider-Man and Lizard where just standing there gawking forward...

I played for three hours (not counting the time allotted for The Last Samurai) and I'm way over the half of the game...

Save your money for something else. Seriously, I think I'll pass it by tomorrow but only because I want to see who's behind the Venom virus...

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.'
...I been sayin' that shit for years and if you ever heard it, it meant your ass. I never really questioned what it meant-- I thought it was just a cold-blooded thing to say to a motherfucker before you popped a cap in his ass... but I saw some shit this mornin' made me think twice. Now I'm thinkin': it could mean you're the evil man... and I'm the righteous man and Mr. 9mm here... he's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the valley of darkness, or it could be you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish... I'd like that... But that shit ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak and I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be a shepherd."

Well, thank God it wasn't Venom but still... the antagonist's not what I expected. Really, the final fight is one of the easiest battles in the entire game! Either I'm way too good or this game is just too damn simple... or quite possibly both.

Most games are like that.
They have a push-over final boss.
That's the correct term I believe.
