Let’s start with Web of Shadows. Again like all the Xbox console release games since the Spider-Man: The Movie game (other than Spider-Man: Friend or Foe) we find the game-play in the open world environment of a very large and beautiful New York City. The backdrop for a somewhat better than average story and a kind of
