I never won this game, but I got through enough of it to review. Let me just say that final fight was super hard and was really ticking me off so instead of going into a Hulk like rage and smashing the television screen I just gave up. Not really my style, but it was just an incredibly hard ending sequence. As for the rest of the game it is a mixed bag, but for the most part it is good as there is a nice couple of story lines in it featuring The Shocker and Mysterio. In fact, I think I enjoyed those two stories more than the one that was based on the movie. I was very disappointed with the fights with Dr. Octopus as they just were awful. I was expecting some really cool fights with the tentacles going everywhere, but the couple of fights there were with him were just him walking on the ceiling. The fighting was okay at times, but strength seems to have been taken out of Spidey's repertoire. This happened in the next game as well, why they never want to make Spider-man super strong and just make him agile and swing around the city. However, that is the high point of this game, the web slinging is simply great fun. In fact I could just do that for an hour at a time. During your web swinging you also have to save people and stop random crimes, this too is a weak point as they just did not add enough variety to the random crimes. Still, this game has its moments like the final fight with Mysterio as that one was not hard but humorous and the voice over work by Bruce Campbell. I just wish they would make a Spider-man game that includes his strength, great web swinging and a lot of super villains.

Experience the unbelievable!

Spider-Man 2: The Movie Game is by far the best super-hero game ever!
In the sequel to its predecessor, Spider-Man 2 gives the player the opportunity to actually live the life of a super-hero, with the abilities to interact with people and objects. The layout for the game is very similar to that of the Grand Theft Auto series, so you can do what you want, when you want, and how you want to -- an experience that Spider-Man: The Movie Game lacked. Being more open-ended, you have a choice of which assigned mission you would like to do first in special layouts called 'chapters'. Accomplishing each mission grants you Hero Points (the modern currency for all tight-wearing heroes), which you can use to buy special combos or locomotion upgrades. Accomplishing each mission makes you one step closer to entering the next chapter.
In this game, locomotion and combat tactics are completely advanced. Instead of sticking to the clouds, Spider-Man's web connects to any building that it is pointed to, allowing Spider-Man to swing and gain momentum for the next thread. You can swing the corner of a building to make a turn, or swing from a skyscraper to gain tremendous speed.
If you don't want to swing around, then you can do what was well-needed in the previous game: Sprinting. This makes you move far faster than a run and can help you reach a destination far faster than wall-crawling. Aside from wall-crawling, you can also sprint on the walls (called Wall-Sprinting) or Hyper Crawl (a far faster mode of wall-crawling). Instead of the annoying Zip-Line technique, you can charge up your jump for a Hyper Spring. This leap uses Spidey's strength to leap tremendous distances, allowing you to leap from building to building.
Combat has changed with new combos and dodging enhancements. New combos can sometimes be accomplished by executing a four-button combo or by executing a three-button combo and rapidly pressing an extra button. The Spider-Sense is now triggered whenever Spidey is about to be attacked, and precise timing will allow Spidey to dodge the attack with ease and execute a counter-attack. If you are having trouble, Spidey can also enter into Spider-Reflexes Mode -- a special combat mode that allows Spidey to move far faster than his enemies for a limited time. This mode can change the way Spidey attacks and can sometimes allow Spidey to execute special combos. Fortunately, you have unlimited -- yet harmless -- webbing that can give you an advantage over well-armed foes or over a group of enemies.
Classic characters have entered into the game and some are making a come-back. The mighty Rhino robs a bank; the previously captured Shocker escapes; the master of illusion Mysterio causes havoc by causing an apparent alien take-over; and Doc Ock threatens the lives of your friends and family.
Also, the well-known Black Cat makes her premiere in this game as an ally for some of your many missions, especially those involving the Shocker. As usual, the game will eventually go along with the movie, but the game still possesses its open-ended layout.
In fact, combating these foes is also completely different. Instead of blindly pummeling the foe in the previous game, Spidey's villains have many tricks up their sleeves that may turn the tide on Spidey. Some will unfortunately get away, but you will be prepared for them next time.
This game actually possesses more of the legendary Spider-Man comedy than its predecessor. Many of them are wisecracks against his enemies, while others are self-criticizing. Either way, you may just belly-laugh at most of his funny moments.
Overall: well-built game-play; tremendous amount of opportunities to 'do whatever a spider can'; includes classic Spidey villains and allies; terrific graphics and special effects; excels in providing both direct and tactical combat; and amazing movies.
Rating: 10 out of 10. Highly recommended.

I have finally done it! I am commenting on a video game. Well, let me tell you this, it is a darn good video game. One of my favorite video games. In fact, it is definitely the very best video game based on a movie ever. The game-play is addicting. The dialog is really cheesy, though, and most of the levels are really hard, but there is one huge thing backing this game up. Free roaming. You can go all around New York City. You can also go to the Statue of Liberty, Roosevelt Island, Brooklyn Bridge, and you can jump off the Empire State Building. You can also chase a train if you want.
Here is the idea for the video game. It has a similar plot of Spider Man 2. Peter Parker is back as Spider-Man but now the scientist Doctor Otto Octavius fused his body with tentacles and is now Doctor Octopus. Not only that, you also have to fight Rhino, Shocker, Mysterio, and numerous thugs that are across New York City. You also meet Black Cat, who you chase through the city. In the meantime you also have to take photos for the Daily Bugle, try to get to Mary Jane Watson's play in time, and try to get to Doctor Connors before school is over. Then Doctor Octopus captures Mary Jane and takes her to his lair I guess. Spiderman goes there and saves the day, or you might just die. In the end you can just roam anywhere collecting 50,000 Hero Points.
Overall, this is one addicting and great video game. One of the highlights is that the actors who played the characters in the movie actually voice them in the video game. Also, Bruce Campbell narrates the video game. The end is the best, though. All you do is roam around town, helping people out, beating up thugs, and earning 50,000 Hero Points. Still, I am not the biggest fan of comic books and I still loved this game, yet, I do not think that this is for everyone. There a couple glitches here and there and some people will give up at the hard levels. Also, Black Cat levels get tedious. Anyway, this is a great game.

One of the best games of the year.
frigimon1815 August 2004
An infinite number of times better than the first game. You can literally go anywhere and do anything. There is so much to do that even if you beat the game without doing anything else, you won't scratch the 50% bar. There's so much to do that doesn't have anything to with the storyline you can spend a month just swinging around collecting icons and helping people without doing much of anything to the storyline. You gotta love the voice work. Having the people from the movie do the voices for the game does wonders for the feeling of being sucked in to the game. The amount of power ups to buy is staggering and the attacks are very cool. The one I probably enjoyed using the most cold only happen in spider reflex mode. You would kick the person up in the air and proceed to pummel him many times like you were performing a bicycle kick on him. It looked so cool. The fan service in the form of Black Cat was nice. I liked how they cut her hair so short. The amount of markers was unbelievable. You could probably spend the better part of a month just trying to find all the hint markers. You really cannot beat this game in a month. You must try it at least once before you pass judgment.
The best Spider-Man game ever created.
randyfromscream22 July 2017
This game have fun mission but one thing sucks about this game is the Doc Oc boss fight like it's hard but I manage to beat the game. I'd have to admit Trayac is better then Benox when it comes up with Spider-Man games. This game need to be backward compatible because most of these new kids doesn't know how fun the game is like most of them are into them damn graphics now a days like this is the reason why I still keep my Original Xbox, PS3, PSP, and Xbox 360.
A ton of fun.
gamerzach711 February 2012
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.

Swinging through new york never felt so fun
landryt9 May 2007
Spider-man 2 is a very fun game, the 3rd does beat it, but that's in opinion to me, it's awesome how you get to swing through new york freely and interact with many people, the voice acting isn't great, but its passable, The web swinging was improved in Ultimate Spider-man which is really just an upgrade of this, I say, either buy this game, ultimate spidey, or spidey 3, they're all great, and I own em all, but at least get one of em.
The only thing i dislike is that the final boss doc ock, is sooooo freaking hard, i mean, he's near impossible, will take a long time to beat him, if you beat him on your first or second try, then you are a master at these games.

So this is the video game it is inspired by the second Spider-Man film So if you have just read my review of the first I said that this was very bad that game had horrible graphics the gameplay was horrible all of them were horrible and now I I also playedthis second game and thank God it is much better than the first because this is truly one of the things done better than the first But the best thing I want to say is that finally he no longer has that nonsense when he falls down he dies but now it's no longer this problem because I can sticker touch the road andthen go every lap around New York for now the graphics are not good and this one hasn't aged well at all and then feedback from the boss and they are much better than the first and then I also like the chase game with the black cat to continue following her and I'm really happy that this game suits meI liked it and thank God for the first one to conclude with a rating of 7.
Realistic Spiderman
tonyjea923 August 2010
the first game was OK but the sequel to it Blew Me Away i had to rent it a million times because every copy i received had a glitch and it made me angry but after finally securing a copy for gamecube this game was totally the best spiderman game ever while the graphics and details are not as bold as the 1st the gameplay overall is way better the combos are more realistic and the web swinging has been upgraded to actually attach you to buildings the villains were more or less easy to beat but the story line actually made me feel like i was in the game itself i love this game and the movie by far better than i expected like its proceeder i love spiderman so much i couldn't stop playing it this game deserves the title for best superhero video game ever
Best of all three Spider-Man Movie games!

I am an all out Spidey fanatic! I love all the games (except for Spider-Man 3, sadly.) Spider-Man 2 was a HUGE step up from the first game. Greater graphics, greater gameplay, the city is MUCH bigger! Tobey came back for voicing Peter and Spidey, Alfred Molina left me gaping at his performance as Dock Ock, and Kirsten, wow, Kirsten! She left me speechless providing the voice for Mary Jane. Sadly, she didn't come back for the third game. That's OK. The second game is overall, ten time's better! Tobey is hysterical in the second game! Pedestrian: "You destroyed my car!" Spidey: "Sorry. My sympathy meter is totally out!" LOL!!!! I loved it! Kirsten was flawless! They all had the same energy as they did in the film! It's a very addicting game!!!! A VERY ADDICTING GAME! Five Million thumbs up for the ceators of such an awesome game! My advice: Buy this one for whatever console you have, skip the third one. Sadly, the third game isn't all that great. Kirsten didn't come back due to a hectic schedule, and, what really ticked me off, was that Gwen Stacy, who is in the third film, isn't in the game! So, Bryce Dallas Howard who played Gwen in the film, didn't have a chance to provide her voice. On the plus side, James Franco who plays Harry Osborn in the films FINALLY provided his voice for Harry. Overall, the second game IS THE BEST!!!! Skip the third one!
Boring.

Though miles better than the (awful) first game this still suffers from major bore. The free-roaming game play would be great if there were a bit more variety and things to do. The main problem is that the gaming area is absolutely immense. While this may be a good thing (a whole state is your gaming area in the upcoming GTA: San Andreas) there are very few definitive landmarks to give you some kind of orientation. It's based on the real New York, with all the famous buildings, but literally hundreds of streets look the same and it's very, very easy to get hopelessly lost. Plus the only method of travel is swinging. Yes, it's cool, but very slow considering the area you have to cover and not to easy to control unless your a genius with the control pad.
And the missions are all the same. Stop an armoured car hijack, stop a guy stealing a car, save some idiot hanging off a building, beating up nameless thugs, save some guy hanging off a building, stop some guy stealing a car, save some guy hanging off a building...boring. When you complete a mission that should be it done for the whole game, none of this again and again and again trash. The average score for completing these missions is 250 hero points...you need 1, 000, 000 to reach Doc Ock at the end of the game. Sorry I ain't sticking around long enough to 4000 tedious missions.
The only cool thing about this game is that it's narrated by Bruce Campbell. The rest seems like a rushed movie tie-in, not a real game.

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!

A childhood favorite for all time
vincent-2269215 February 2023
I still remember when I bought this game all those years ago. For an older game they really did a good job with making the city immersive. Helping citizens all over town as well as taking out gang locations and the occasional car chase! Can't forget about Bruce Campbell as the tour guide!
I like how the game sticks with main story element a but also has characters like Mysterio and Black Cat. Fun interactions and missions. And of course the pizza delivery side game is an ultimate classic with tons of laughs in store. I would recommend this game now even just for the nostalgia! Definitely a 10/10 in my book for all time.

When I got this game I thought, 'Wow this is fun!'
...but it gets very old very fast.
For each 'Chapter' you play, you must obtain certain goals. Almost all of which are the same. There is always one unique goal for each chapter. Other than that, you go around stopping the same crimes over and over again. It gets ridiculous. Same goes for the dialog. The same BAD jokes over and over again, Sometimes twice is a row.
Example - Woman: 'Spiderman, You da man!'
Spiderman: 'Thanks ... you da woman?'
(8 Seconds Later)
Woman: 'Spiderman, You da man!'
Spiderman: 'Thanks ... you da woman?'
As for comparing it to GTA, I can see how people can think that. Yet something is off with the surroundings. You see, the GTA series has found a way to make their cities have a different look for different areas. In Spiderman 2, everything has the same 'blah' quality to it, throughout the city. It almost feels like you're web-slinging through a map of cubes rather than buildings.
Also, the graphics look like they were made for the original Playstation as opposed to PS2.
I wouldn't recommend this game, in my opinion, the original Spider-Man video game for the PS1 was much more fun than this one. At least it didn't get so old so quick. This game leaves you wanting more. But not in a good way.

Doing WHATEVER a Spider Can!
WOLVERINE25th31 March 2006
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.

Take New York for a spin
disrupta_200316 July 2004
Spider Man 2 the game is the virtual monostat of the film you get everything you got in the movie plus more when I say more I mean more villains more characters more action and more freedom. Villains include Doc Ock, Rhino, Mysterio, and Shocker, plus your tribune of criminals at your disposal. Ally's include black cat this time around and she will assist you through most of the shocker missions. Freedom allows you to complete missions from the Daily Bugle to delivering pizza at Peter Parkers day jobs.
I really enjoyed this game to its full extent and you should to. Some of the reasons you should love it is because you can do anything a spider can with breathtaking new moves and amazing combos. You can go anywhere interact with anyone and anything. You can web swing for the first time from street to rooftop across the entire city. But one of the biggest reasons you will love this game is because authentic characters from the movie do voice overs including Tobey Maguire, Alfred Molina, and Kirsten Dunst.
One Game this Game is Similar to is Grand theft auto 3 and vice city primarily because of the fact that you have unlimited freedom. But overall Graphics are at CG and that earns a 10. combat has changed from the first game which earns it a 10 and the characters are unlimited and lively which earns it a 10 again resulting in this game getting a perfect

an improvement of the original, but...
departed0727 August 2004
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.
