Strengths: graphics

Weakness: repetitive, no in level saving.

I hated the fact that i had to keep starting from the beginning of a level every time I lost a life. There are no checkpoints at all in this game and it only saves when you complete a level. I don't know how many times i have gotten to the end of a level and my time ran out because i missed rescuing one person and lost a live. After completing 6 levels, I got tired of that crap and quit playing...

After completing 6 levels, I got tired of that crap and quit playing this game and will not even pick it up again!

Spider-Man 2 DS

Strengths: Graphics

Weakness: Touch Screen is useless, Lack of Level Saves

Spider-Man 2 DS is basically a side scrolling game which you get to look for bad guys and beat them up and save helpless civillians. Web swinging is nowhere near as fun as it is in the console version. While there's nothing technically wrong with the game, its rather difficult at times, very repitive in the tasks, and just not that much fun. Personally I'd save the dough unless you can get it...

While there's nothing technically wrong with the game, its rather difficult at times, very repitive in the tasks, and just not that much fun. Personally I'd save the dough unless you can get it under $10. Anymore than that, you'd be better off saving your money.

Spider-Man 2

Strengths: Pretty Good Graphics

Weakness: Extremely Difficult

Spider-Man 2 turns out to be nothing like its big-brothers on the home consoles, and goes the path of a basic side-scroller. One problem with this is that the game becomes so frustrating right from the begining (save the people in the burning building in under 4 minutes), that I was never able to progress further than 5 minutes into the game. It just made me not want to play any longer. Stick to...

Can Spidey Do It?

Strengths: Good graphics and fluid animation

Weakness: Level design sucks

This game is pretty sort. There are 15 levels that you can finish in about 15 minutes each. The levels are rather hard though. If there's something wrong in this game, it's the level design and gameplay. They simply just didn't try too hard with this. If you love spidey and can find this cheap, give it a shot. All others, think about it first. Who knows, you may like it anyway.

Spider-Man 2 (DS)

Strengths: Graphics

Weakness: Lack of touch screen, horrible controls

Spider-Man 2 is a very mediocre game for the Nintendo DS. It has horrible controls and is rather difficult to play. It's tedious and repetitive in that you don't have a checkpoint or game save in the middle of a level, and if you fail, you have to start from the beginning the level all over again. The graphics are excellent, even in 2D. It's sharp and detailed. However, it still can't help the...

Spider-Man 2 is a very mediocre game for the Nintendo DS. It has horrible controls and is rather difficult to play. It's tedious and repetitive in that you don't have a checkpoint or game save in the middle of a level, and if you fail, you have to start from the beginning the level all over again.

The graphics are excellent, even in 2D. It's sharp and detailed. However, it still can't help the poor gameplay.

I only recommend the console version of this game, which is far more better in terms of graphics and gameplay. If you want it on a portable platform, get the PSP version.
