I have owned my SM for about a year and I can safely say that this game, LOTR and Tron LE are the 3 best Stern games so far. The number of shots in this fan layout is amazing. The Spider Sense shot on the right is one of the most difficult shots in all of pinball. The physics of the shots you can make off the upper right flipper onto 2 different ramps are mind blowing. This is one of the coolest games to Mod and LED's will make at a 10 on lighting every time. Nobody WANTS to sell this game once they own it.

My top 3. I love the integration with the theme from killing the villians, to the modes with great video clips. Sound and voices are excellent, and good flow with tough stacked multiballs and jackpots that make it a solid game, with repeat fun, for a lot of different ages.

My kid and I really enjoyed this one. You get to "fight" a couple of the bad guys from SM movies. Good fast gameplay, with a decent amount of lastability.

An all-time favorite thanks to a smooth-shooting Steve Ritchie layout & a pretty-damn-good Lyman Sheats ruleset. Add in a sweet sound package with strong & humorous voiceovers, and you've got yourself a winner.

This game is the modern day AFM, MM, or Monster Bash. Center Target bashing is fun, until you get good enough to backhand the Doc Ock consistently, then you start going for combos and white modes, or you work your way towards battle royale. Absolutely amazingly deep and fun game with tons of Ritchie flow. This is a modern classic.

Richie and Lyman did a great job on this one. A top 10 game with great flow, reminds me of AFM

Nice variety of shots. I really like the the way the shots are tasked to get to the various modes. The different modes each require different shots and my favorite is Bonesaw which always gets me pumped up. The Dock Ock shot and magnet are well incorporated into the gameplay. The Super Hero is not easy to get to but is not impossible for an above average player. This game is great for working on flipper skills, and also has great combos shots.

A great all around pin. Understandably known for great flow, but there is a lot more to this pin that just that. Not only is the flow very good, but the pin plays quite fast and smooth as well. Love the ramp shots.

The rules are also very good, love the theme, and this pin has some of the best artwork on a Stern ever. Good sound effects. Just a great pin, deserves to be in the Top 10 of all time.

I dont understand the draw to this table. It is fast and fun but cookie cutter. I prefer original machines!

I have had my Spiderman since new and still love this game!
Sold my Simpsons for this and have never looked back.
If your thinking about this game, you do not have to think twice.
Grab one for yourself, you will not loose....

This machine kept me coming back for more - the fun factor was really present. The vibrating case is a real nice touch.

This is a beautiful looking game. They did a fantastic job with the lighting on the playfield. I went ahead and added some extra flashers and it looks amazing! This is my 2nd favorite stern game right behind LOTR. Great flow to this game and great music. Buy this game!

Great game, I don't know how there could be so many Stern haters after this release. Spiderman is a top 20 without a doubt! What kills this game for me is the music and art. Steve Ritchie for president!

Played this in an arcade. I do not own one. Lots of lamps were out so the lighting was bad. I liked the layout of the PF and enjoyed the game. There were issues with one flipper and some mechanical problems too. I think I would like to own this pin someday.

Just played Spiderman for the first time today and man is it good! I actually just finished playing AFM before I started playing some and I thought it was just as good and just as fun. It comes with a center post to help you with those pesky center drains when trying to hit sandman and his force fields. I did notice some of the crap artwork on the slighshot plastics but who cares its a ton of fun. Id buy one in a heartbeat if I had the cash ;)

Cons: This one is a big one for some people but the DMD is the worst part of this pin. I think the animations are cool, movie clips etc but the red DMD looks muddy and its hard to see at times.

Bought Spiderman a while back, but didn't remember to post a review. It has been a lot of fun to play. I am still working my way through all the modes and discover something different every time I play. We don't keep this one locally, so I don't get to play it as often as I would probably like. I love AFM, and SM is similar in many ways. We added the shaker motor, and boy, there are times it seems like it shakes the whole house. It sits next to BDK, and I really think we need to procure an Iron Man for a superhero trilogy.
