Everyone said that this new spiderman game was going to be great, so i bought it, it is one of the worst video games i have ever played. The graphics are terrible, it is impossible to control spiderman and the story sucks! there is not a single good aspect about the game that i found yet. Also despite the fact that you cant control spiderman i beat the game in about 5 hours.
ONE OF THE WORST GAMES EVER
spiderman2 = Bad True Crime ?!?

I played a demo that a friend which work for Treyarch gave me.
The game is even worst than Spiderman 1 - The Movie. The Camera is choppy, AI doesn't know where to go, and the graphics are bad.
May be is ok to rent it but defintetly not a buy.
GET IT!!

Spider-man, Spider-man, does whatever a spider can. Spins a web any size. Catches thieves just like flys. Look out, here comes the spider-man!
The game is going to be just like that. BUY IT NOW!
No Subtitles, Avoid this game

Beware, as with all Activision titles, the company fails to add the option for subtitles within their games, making them useless to those that need them. Spiderman 2 is heavily dependent on auditory instructions and interaction with characters throughout the game. Without subtitles...it is worthless.
Avoid this game and all Activision titles until they get their act together.
A great game... Until you play it.

Ladies and gentlemen be warned. This game is a popular series that has --until this point-- been very enjoyable. But Treyarch has seriously lost their touch. Spiderman 2 starts out as a wonderful game, the ability to visit street level and foil "everyday crimes" around the city is awesome. But the "level bosses" (fights that you must complete to move on) are terribly designed. One level (Mysterio's burning theatre) is impossibly difficult simply because of the terrible web slinging controls the game has employed. Another level (Statue of Liberty) is so bad that you'll want to return the game. This game deserves no honors whatsoever, since the designers spent too much time trying to do "cool" things, rather than making it playable. Go back to the older Spiderman games and you'll enjoy yourself a lot more.
A PS 1 Generation Game

I purchased this game on June 29 and popped it in immediately, getting all revved up for the enjoyable experiance of being everyone's favorite friendly neighborhood spiderman
Then the load screen happened, and I gasped.
The colours only use a 4 wheel spectrum for the most part dating back to the origianl spider man comic book game on the PS1. The characters mouths don't move, the hands are mittens and the colours when you get up close aren't that great either.
Now the game play. The swing machanics, even on extreme, are simplistic and do what the game tells them to, as for roaming around the city, it's not enjoyable or fun. You have maybe 4 variety of missions which you MUST do before getting on with this story. None of them are fun or creative.
This game does deserve two stars though for voice acting, it's tremedously good and corny. What you'd expect from a spiderman era game.
The best game ever

My Major problems with this game are:
1. The saving in this game SUCKS. Several points throughout the game I saved only to find myself at the beginning of a mission...NOT at the point that I saved. I beat Ock in the final battle and went on to continue the game and I earned about 25,000 hero points - I saved. Guess what? When I loaded THAT save it took me ALL the way back to the point where I have to race to the warehouse to fight Ock ALL over again.
Screw that!
2. The power web (L + Y), or whatever it's called, does absolutely NO damage at all like it did in the first game - especially on the bosses.
3. Can't target where I want the web to go like in the first one.
I'm sure there are others, but I'm really upset at the saving feature. Hours absolutely wasted.
Thank God I rented it.
I'm with the others who've said that this is a great rental, but not a good buy - at least not for $50. For $50, I want the game to save in the spot that I saved it. Is that too much to ask?
This is a GREAT game to play and it's alot of fun (albeit repetitive at alot of points), but for the saving glitches, the power webs doing 0 damage on the bosses and no targeting system, I'm going to give this game 1 star.
