I always like giant news company’s talking “positively” talking about games. Now Reviewing Games Thats something totally new to me, and I like it.

If you launch the latest Spider-Man video game expecting a comic book-inspired brawler for younger players, you won’t be disappointed with this superhero adventure.

But those in search of a deep story, open-ended environments or high-definition graphics should swing past this title.

As its name suggests, “Spider-Man: Friend or Foe” lets you play as the webbed wonder but also lets you choose a sidekick from one of a dozen villains as they team up to fight a greater evil.

Each with their own unique fighting technique and super powers, sidekicks include Doctor Octopus (“Doc Ock”), Venom, Rhino and Green Goblin, all of whom need to be defeated before they’ll fight alongside you.

While playing alone, you control one character as the game’s artificial intelligence handles the other. For example, while fighting baddies as Spider-Man, the computer will control, say, Sandman, but you can switch at any time by pressing a button on the game pad.

TOKYO, Oct. 10, 2007 (Thomson Financial delivered by Newstex) — Nintendo Co Ltd, the world’s largest maker of portable game consoles, on Wednesday won an exclusive deal in which major game developer Capcom Co Ltd will supply its blockbuster Monster Hunter 3 action game title for its Wii home-use, stand-alone game machines.

The Osaka-based Capcom had previously said it was developing Monster Hunter 3 for Sony (NYSE:SNE) Computer Entertainment Inc’s PlayStation 3 game console. The company’s Monster Hunter 1 and 2 games were exclusively offered on PlayStation 2 consoles.

Capcom’s Monster Hunter series have accumulated global sales of 4.5 million copies.

‘Due to high development cost of titles for PS3, we have decided to switch the platform to which we release our Monster Hunster 3 title,’ Capcom managing corporate officer Katsuhiko Ichii said.

Nintendo has a rich title line-up for children but has few strong titles that can appeal to core game players or adults.

The announcement comes as Sony is struggling to recover its once-mighty position in the global video game market where competition has heated up since Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:MSFT) launched the Xbox 360 in 2005 and Nintendo Co introduced its Wii last November.
