Featured reviews
In this game, you are Spider Man. You deal with super villain threats as Spider Man, and personal relationships as Peter Parker. I think the best part of this game is the gameplay. You can explore the enormous New York map while web-slinging, beat up thugs with upgradeable combo attacks, and climb up (and jump off of) buildings. The web-slinging has been improved since the last game, so now you can web faster, and on buildings instead of thin air. The storyline follows the movie decently, and throws in a few extra super-villains and the black cat to enhance the experience.
As fun as the experience is, it's not without fault. Most of the characters have poorly animated faces, with the exception of Spider Man and Doctor Octopus. The biggest issue with this game is the lack of variety in side missions. This is especially a problem once you beat the game, because from there, the game will have you playing the same (about 8) side missions over and over. despite it's issues, Spider Man 2 is a fun and rewarding experience that texts your skill as a gamer.

I still miss the original game play of the first Spider-Man game. While the first game involved missions of kicking butt and doing investigative work, the sequel is about saving people from New York of all kinds of threats from Sinking Boats, Armed Robberies, Carjackings, Muggings, Explosions and more. I'll admit, the game play is great because you're still experiencing the same excitement as the first game when you follow the movie plot; just like in part 2, Parker has to deal with responbility on his alter ego while Mary Jane Watson is going out with John Jameson. Also the bad guys are no picnic either; you deal with the main villain of the movie, Dr. Octopus along with Rhino, Mysterio, and Shocker. I expected to see at least Scorpion after his dissaperence from the first gain. That's the good news. The bad news is that the game is incessant, meaning never ending. As you finish playing the movie version, you are on your own getting points to earn bonus moves and I would say just play the movie levels and that's it.

I recently played the windows version of this game, but I think the PS version of this game is much better than the PC version (I saw in videos). The web swinging in PC version is really disgusting. Therefore free roaming in this game is not a good thing to do in this game. If I talk about the graphics, then it is fine according to the date of its release. Animations are also fine. Missions are not so good and interesting as I expected. So I can easily say that this game is not as my expectations. I didn't gave any star to this video game because I didn't play other versions of this game. But the PC version of this game is really bad.
THIS is a Spider-Man game done right.
New York not only looks like New York, but you can explore it to the fullest! The boss-fights are creative and expansive, and there is a lot to do in the city without having to follow the main plot. Not to mention various famous landmarks that ACTUALLY exist in the city; many of which only NYers would recognize. As an added bonus? Bruce Campbell, baby! The best part about the shoddy first game and definitely a great addition to this one. Not to mention you get to hear him well over 200 times! Now, for the bad. The various random missions lack variety. After a while, you just wanna shoot a kid's balloon with a web instead of returning it to him. When the main story is finished, the only thing left to do is finish gathering all the various icons in the game. While many will do this happily to get 100%, it can get dull after a while. The game has replay value, but it's very limited.
Overall, a great movie game and definitely sets the bar for any hero games to follow in the free-roam format.

I got this game for my Christmas some time ago and I enjoyed it * a lot*! The game consists of you running around New York doing random crimes and of course, story mode which includes Doc Ock and other super-villains. Spider-Man has some really good fighting combos this time around, he can swing faster, the city is larger than ever and the graphics are about decent.
There are a few minor flaws such as no subway entrances or subway tunnels and there sure aren't any pets in the city but it is a great game.
After story mode, you must work your way up to 100%, which is a very long devoting process in which Spider-Man must complete challenges, missions and find all exploration tokens. But this is still a great game and really fun for those who are not allowed to play Grand Theft Auto because of the rating. Go out and buy this game and beat it!

- GoofsCollision lines (the usually invisible areas that tell the game whether or not you're colliding with something) are constantly visible. Look for the white line around characters.
