This was my first pin and now I'm spoiled. If you keep making shots they all link together. I changed just a few lights out to LED's and colored lights to brighten up Green Goblin and Venom, but that was just a personal preference.

Fun all around game - great flow, satisfying shots, and good multiball options. Not my favorite theme but still pretty cool.

An excellent classic Stern, one of the oldest im my collection and it won't leave soon. Note that it has more or less the same playfield and flow than a Star Trek and by todays standards it would be a LE with 3 ramps and 3 toys on the playfield...... the animations and some of the music could be better though. Digitalized scenes from movies are not good on a 128x32 dmd with 4 shades...

Awesome game. Similar DMD traits to Tron and IM. Live the toys and villains and a fun game to mod. Like the upper flipper shot and always enjoy a nice center shot a la AFM. Hoping to get one soon.

Spider Man was a game that was criticized early on but quickly became one of the highest rated. This game combines great mechanical toys, magnets and smooth flowing and fun ramps, a third flipper and amazing lighting, music and voices which all combined result in one of the most fun pin games you will ever play.

So happy I purchased a Stern Spiderman. This game is a keeper in my small collection.
Spiderman is a lot of fun to play on V2.6 code.
There are many cool modes and call outs, some crazy multiball action making this a fast paced and exciting game. A couple of items that are a must to add to a standard machine are Shaker motor and LED's this really enhances this game. Overall a great title, certainly one the whole family can enjoy. Can be a bit easy for the seasoned player.

Severely overrated, one of the best Sterns but does not belong in the top 20. Sound and music is irritating, blurry animations. Good flow, okay rules but shots needed for progress are too repetitive. It gets boring quick. They could have done so much more within this theme.

The choice of movie quotes don't make sense, like "Everything went just fine until you brought a girl into it???"

After owning four top 20 90's Williams machines I got my first Stern last weekend. A 2007 Stern Spider-Man by the master, Steve Ritchie. (I have 3 SR machines now.) This has to be one of the greatest machines every produced. Its great for the novice that just wants to bash the balls around but once you learn the game it is astounding how much fun this is. The speed is also blinding. The balls fly back at you as quick as you can send them back to the top of the machine. The lights are incredible and the sounds coming out of the massive speakers blow your mind. Great job Stern. You have my vote. 11/10.

This is another really fun pin. Due to the variety of play and the deeper rule set, this pin has extensive replay value. much more in-depth than (almost as fun) Iron Man or Avengers. This would be good to have as part of a collection.

Near perfect rating from me. I'm hooked. Sub and shaker help the experience. Programmed by the master of practical variety. Thank You Designers and programmers.

Flow, Flow, Flow. This game has it all. Great shots, interesting call outs and a very solid rule set. Great integration of the superhero theme (if that's what you like) Does not feel clunky like some sterns of that era can. All round a great game. I don't even care for the theme or the movies. If you are considering one for purchase - do it ! The only reason I don't have one is because a good mate has one, and lives about 2 minutes from my place.

Great Stern game to play on, with so many modes to complete and many multiball opportunities. Defeating the bad guys with pinball? Illogical, but it'll do. ;)

Have put a lot of plays on my very own in the last week. I love this pin! Leds, shaker, sub woofer, etc make this game over the top.Cant get enough of the theme. Easy to follow. Not the most difficult or challenging pin but it is a blast to play and great to look at. New to my collection and will never leave!

We've had a few Spider-Man's come through the house, and it's always been the game I play the most. It's challenging but not to the point where you'll walk away. It's also really fun!

Wanted to play this for awhile and it is true to it's name and theme - Sandman, Green Goblin, Dr. Octopus, Venom involved and has very nice feel for the SM theme. Lots of shots and ramps, lots of combos and targets. Call outs are great. The play is very nice with some good shots and variations. An example of how modern/recently released pinballs have made improvements over some older games. Makes you want to play over and over. Not rated where it should be IMO as I think it should be much higher asI like it better than some games rated higher.

One of Steve Ritchie's best with Stern. Not better than AC/DC, but I like it more that Star Trek.

Very good game. Lots of fun. The game does get a bit old for me but I played many games on it until I got there. I really enjoy the feel and play of Bally Williams games but this is a solid pin from Stern. This along with Ironman and Tron are in my opinion the best Stern games.

A very solid release from Stern, can be great fun. A game I will always put some cash into if I see it on location.
