There are tons of KZbinrs out there like Synthetic man and Griffin Gaming who call this game complete trash for certain decisions and imperfections but I ultimately don’t share their view. The game has problems, a story sometimes being rushed, several beloved suits missing from the roster, some game breaking glitches that as of this comment have mostly been fixed, arguably not enough additions to the gameplay, miles god awful new suit, and so on. Is there some suggestive writing that feels like it panders to some movement or another yes. But that’s not enough to completely bring a game down. It’s good to know I’m not alone as KZbinrs like moistcritical who I trust to be unbiased and neutral have a similar view. Still I do wish this game didn’t have a lot of its content cut out.

The fact that May’s “balance” monologue is probably the biggest issue in the game and its biggest message is so ironic

[@jervistetchMadHater]

I love the game but what they did to the MJ model is abismol. the blatant self insert is verry distracting.

[@emmyjr1231]

did you change the title and thumbnail?

[@dx12011]

I think my favorite part of Spider-Man 2 was when I sold it on Ebay immediately after I finished the main storyline. I will never understand how people can unironically shill for this game.

Not the place for this, I am afraid. Unless you want some ragebait.

Tony Todd did an amazing job before Peter fights Kraven… “KILL KRAVEN” that shit had the hairs on my arms poke up

[@usmansubhani7482]

I always liked the MJ levels. It was good despite being simple. I especially loved it when they gave her a taser in the last few levels. Looks like they understood what we wanted. Audience: “I don’t like feeling weak.” Insomniac: “Give her a gun.”

[@TheTom20]

And now they say that she is op people are stupid

[@xpflowexclusive4313]

​@@TheTom20Are you stupid ???? The creator said she was OP... Like what.

[@xpflowexclusive4313]

I'm pretty sure the audience didn't say... I didn't like feeling weak. I think they didn't wanna play as MJ or Miles at all. While I agree the second game did her justice. The first game made me quit and uninstall the game 3 times in one MJ mission altogether. Idc if she was weak. I hated it.

[@TheTom20]

@@xpflowexclusive4313 I'm kinda glad they kept her missons, because like her misson when peter chases her is awesome

[@xpflowexclusive4313]

@@TheTom20 i think some missions like those... The chase and the Bomb scene in SM1 was great. But everything else was just unnecessary. You can replace her with spiderman and allow him to get information and it wouldn't feel any different.

[@krejn]

Just spend like 15 hours playing it. I could not stop playing. Only stopped playing now cuz I really have to go to bed. Insomniac cooked hard af

A video finally talking about Spider-Man 2 in a positive way instead of hating on it because it’s “woke”? What a miracle!

A Wanted Dead KZbin ad read was not on my 2024 bingo card

[@jackreacher2095]

Wish miles didn't exist to be honest . Would of been a lot more happy with a more fleshed out Peter and Harry venom story

[@TTLOSF]

I feel like outside of the new game plus issue this is a 10/10 game

[@micheleposticcio5768]

You have the highest quality footage of spiderman 2 for the PS2 I have ever seen in a video I swear

[@crimsonslayer6641]

I personally loved the insomniac spider man games, I personally love spider man 2, at launch I didn’t run into any problems. My personal favourite game of 2023, baldur’s gate 3 is my 2nd favourite game this year
