If you've always liked playing the Tony Hawk games and also enjoy the occasional action shooter then this game should be right up your alley. There is a heavy emphasis on pulling off tricks and combining them with style while gliding along and jumping around so this is something to be aware off. If you're more in to shooting stuff with the occasional duck and dodge here and there then you might not enjoy this game as much as you would like.

Either way, it's great that Insomniac and Microsoft have finally ported this little zany and colorful gem to the PC, even though it isn't that surprising seeing as Microsoft is the publisher. So I don't expect we'll be so lucky with Spiderman. But one can always hope.

There are still some minor issues with the game postlaunch though, like mouse aiming acting like a controller's right thumb stick, a lot of people having trouble booting up the game due to antivirus software blocking it, and some stuttering in sound and video here and there. But I have faith that there will be a patch for that pretty soon. Other than that it runs quite well and still looks great for a 4 year old game which actually plays a lot smoother on PC when you uncap the framerate.
It is a fun and energetic game that I enjoy getting in to and getting good at and therefor I can recommend.

Also glad that they didn't bump up the price for a re-release like some other publishers do.
