These games are adaptations of the film Spider-Man 2. The PS2, GameCube,
and Xbox versions of the game, developed by Activision's Treyarch
studio, allow the player to freely roam around Manhattan, Roosevelt,
Ellis, and Liberty Islands. The home console versions were also
innovative in that physics-based algorithms simulated Spider-Man's web
swinging in three dimensions, creating a new game mechanic unlike the
traditional jumping or flying of previous Spider-Man games.
Versions of the game on other platforms feature more linear
side-scrolling and platform sections. The PSP version of Spider Man 2
was compared to playing the Spider Man 1 plot.
While street thugs only have handguns, machine guns, crowbars and their
fists to protect them, the super-villains and their minions have their
various unique powers and weapons that they use to either steal, cause
terror or defeat Spider-Man. At the end of the game, it becomes possible
to unlock a warehouse in which the player can again fight thugs and
villains such as Shocker, Rhino, Doctor Octopus, and an additional boss,
Calypso, who is not found elsewhere in the game.
The player has the ability to choose either to go on with the storyline
or swing around the city. The player can explore Manhattan, Roosevelt
Island, Ellis Island, Liberty Island, and a mysterious label on the map
over the water claiming "Governors Island" with many sidequests for the
player to complete. The player can do random tasks to earn "hero
points," which must be accumulated to continue with the plot and are
spent on upgrading Spidey's skills.
