Posted by Hashim.Z.k at 2:43 PM



Spiderman is an action game based upon the Marvel Comics character, Spider-Man, and is directly based on the first feature film starring the character. It was developed by Treyarch and released in 2002 for PC and several video game consoles.//
Gameplay

Spider-Man is a level based action game,with you playing as Spider-Man. Most levels are indoors, but somelevels require you to web-sling from building to building. Levels arein "sections" with a different enemy for each, each section lastingabout 3 levels. Each level, except for the last two, has a bonus screenafter it. Generally, there are the bonuses "Time" (clear level in a settime), "Perfect" (Not take damage/detected) and "Style" (use as many combosas possible). Other level-specific ones are "Secrets" (Uncover a secretarea), "Combat" (Defeat all enemies). You can gain, depending ondifficulty, points on completing these tasks. On Easy mode, each bonusis 500 points, Normal is 700, and Super-Hero is 1000 each.
The basics controls are swinging, zipping, punching/action, kick,web, camera lock, and the Web Mod in Enhanced Mode. Depending on howyou combine different buttons, it makes different effects.Wall-crawling is automatic, as is "stealth mode", where Spidey is inshadow, and therefore is undetectable by enemies. This is necessary togain extra points in the game.
There are 21 different combat combos, with 4 web controls, eachhaving a type of "upgrade" to each. Golden Spiders are used to gainthese combos.

Enemies

Here is a list of enemies in the game.


  • Thugs

  • Dennis "Spike" Caradine (The man who saved Flint Marko from going to Jail)

  • Light Mechs: Robots designed to destroy.

  • Hunter Killers: Robotic spiders.

  • Herman Shultz/Shocker

  • Adrian Toomes/Vulture

  • Mac Gargan/Scorpion



  • Norman Osborn/Green Goblin

  • Razor Bats (Green Goblin's weapon, fought in the level "The Razor's Edge")

  • The Ultimate Weapon (Massive OsCorp produced weapon)

  • Alex Brough


Secret Character

By completing the game on the 'Hero' difficulty, the player unlockedthe ability to play as Harry Osborn, wearing his father's Green Goblingear.
Instead of the film's plot line, the story as the Goblin is Harry,having discovered his father was the Green Goblin, is trying to uncoverhis father's links to the criminal underworld and redeem his family'sname. When the player reaches the levels where Spider-Man faced theGreen Goblin, the boss is still the Goblin, speaking with a distortedversion of Norman's voice. Although this character's identity is neverconfirmed, he repeatedly claims he's the next man in line to take overOscorp after Norman's death. Although the levels are exactly the samefor the Green Goblin as they are for Spider-Man, it seems thatSpider-Man has already been and beat the villains before the GreenGoblin arrives. Evidence for this is when Vulture mentions that he hadalready had to bother with another costumed cretin (presumablySpider-Man). Also the fact that the bad Green Goblin could be NormanOsbourn with a distorted voice from his fight with Spider-Man.
Due to the game being designed for Spider-Man, some of the levels(Such as the race levels) are easier due to the Goblin riding on hisglider, whereas some are harder due to sequences designed for webswinging.
In addition to the weapons used by the boss character (PumpkinBombs, Razor Bats and the Glider's gatling gun), the Goblin has theability to run at super speed, and the ability to drop bombs from theglider.
Like with Spider-Man, if you fly close to the ground, people willstart talking about him. Harry also does the double jump move ofSpider-Man and uses all of Spider-Man's combat moves.

Reception

The critical reviews were good, with many critics at the time considering it the best Spider-Man game yet.[1] However, criticism fell on the indoor levels,[2] Tobey Maguire's voice acting[3] and bad camera.[4]
High sales (two million copies of the PS2 version[5] and over 400,000 on the GameCube and Xbox[6]) were sold in North America alone, allowing the game to enter the "Best-Sellers" of each console (PS2's Greatest Hits, GameCube's Player's Choice and Xbox's Platinum Hits).

Differences from the Film

  • In the game, the man who killed Uncle Ben is a member of a gang ofthugs known as the Skulls. In the movie, he appeared to operate alone(although Spider-Man 3 revealed he was in league with Flint Marko).

  • At the end, the Green Goblin is killed on the Queensboro Bridge byhis glider. In the movie, he and Spider-Man fight first on the bridge,and then go to an abandoned building where the Goblin will be impaledby the glider. The Roosevelt Island cable cars in the movie are alsoabsent in the game.

  • In the game, Spider-Man was persued by the razor bats whileswinging above the city. In the movie, he faces them in a burningbuilding after being tricked by the Green Goblin.

  • OsCorp plays a bigger role here than it does in the film, asSpider-Man must investigate the company itself after discovering aconnection between it and the Green Goblin.

  • In the film, at the World Unity Day Festival, Spider-Man mustrescue Mary Jane from a baloon. In the film, she's trapped on acrumbling balcony on the OsCorp building. It's also night in the game,whereas the event in the film took place during the day.


Trivia

  • If one webswings low to the streets in City levels, people on theground will see him and note his presence. One of these people will say"Look! It's The Spider-Man!", and Spidey will say "It's justSpider-Man, there's no The," an apparent reference to the line in the1960s Spider-Man theme song "Look out, Here comes The Spider-Man!"Also, two men again reference the theme by going "Whoah, it'sSpider-Man!" "Spider-Man? Is he strong?" "'Strong?' Listen bud, I heardhe's got radioactive blood!"

  • Additionally, a civilian may say "Look, look up there,it's...Spider-man" then Spider-Man says "Just stay away from that birdand plane metephors, that's that other guy." in reference to the phrasecommonly associated with Superman, "Look up in the sky. It's a bird, it's a plane... It's SUPERMAN!!!"

  • According to an interview with a member of the Treyarch team in the Spider-ManBradyGames strategy guide, there was a level created for this game thatinvolved the player rescuing civilians from a burning building.However, due to the events of September 11, the team scrapped it, so they didn't appear insensitive when the game was released.
