About this product

Product Information

Sling, swing, and fling around Manhattan and Queens as the friendly neighborhood web crawler in "Ultimate Spider-Man" for the PS2. Based on the similarly named comic book by Brian Michael Bendis, play as both Spider-Man and his perennial nemesis, Venom. This game departs from previous games based on the movie series to include many more characters from the popular comic. Developer Treyarch and publisher Activision collaborated on this groundbreaking PlayStation 2 video game release featuring a beautiful cel-shaded style. This was achieved with 3-D Comic Inking Technology, a feature that actually makes you feel like you are living out the story. The cel-shaded video art style works beautifully with the free-roaming nature of the game. It set a new standard for how good a free-roaming game could be on consoles like the PlayStation. In Story mode of "Ultimate Spider-Man," you automatically switch between controlling Spidey and his friend, who's gained abilities from wearing the Venom suit. As our hero, Spider-Man cheats the law of gravity by swinging from buildings and performing acrobatic maneuvers and fluid combat. Various collectible items around the open-world map unlock new costumes, and side missions offer ways to keep things interesting as you complete the main storyline in the game. Random events, like muggings and civilian rescues, create unexpected opportunities to uphold the Hero's Code by helping out the helpless. As Venom, the player relies on huge jumps and sharp claws to propel the massive villain from building to building. Absorbing life from enemies and civilians alike, the player cheats a demise, despite their suit continuously draining their health level. Instead of fluid and agile combat, the villain smashes and slams with brute force while rampaging through the open map. The unique, original storyline gets fully fleshed out from multiple perspectives when Spider-Man's spider sense reacts to Venom's presence. The expository videos between chapters blend seamlessly with the player-controlled action, which benefits from the unique cel-shading animation style in this PlayStation 2 title.The 2005 release date of this PS2 game marked a breakthrough for comic book games. The random-events mechanic of "Ultimate Spider-Man" was ahead of its time, creating an unending quality rarely seen on PS2. The multiple-narrator mechanic is also a rare feature implemented early here, punctuating heroism with the brutal violence of Venom. All of these features created the ultimate combination of advanced dynamics needed for a PS2 game with high replay value.Playing from multiple points of view, from both hero and villain perspectives, adds an interesting and robust feeling to the storyline. The fact that the symbiote Venom costume feeds on the wearer contextualizes the brutality of the character with ambivalent empathy. As you explore the vast open map in all three dimensions, encounters and collectibles hold interest well after completing the main missions. From both sides of the divide between right and wrong, the living city offers plenty of continuous and enjoyable action.

    A great nostalia boost

    The game arrived in great shape and working condition, perfectly satisfactory as a Christmas gift to a friend of mine. It's a shame the official case wasn't with it, but the wide grin from seeing their favorite ps2 spiderman back in their hands was more than enough to make this well deserved purchase.

    Fine game, but you should probably rent it, first

    As someone who's spent hundreds of hours across half a dozen or so different Spider-Man games, I've got a lot to say here. "Ultimate Spider-Man" adapts from the Marvel's "Ultimate" comics continuity, allowing it to showcase character dynamics and interpretations that are different from what many Spidey fans might be used to from most other sources. The voice acting is excellent, overflowing with the wisecracks and wit expected from a Spider-Man production. The gameplay, however, is a bit of a mixed bag. On the upside, "Ultimate Spider-Man" grants you control over both Spider-Man and his archenemy Venom. The two characters have very appreciably different controls and styles of play, as well as having mutually exclusive minigames after the main story has concluded. For example, a new and ...

    Dude wrapped the game like 4 times in bubble wrap to make sure it stayed decent before it was wrapped in one of those bubbled envelopes. Case is in excellent condition, disk is clean, everything looks like I just took it out of the packaging. Dude's a real one.

  • Great game

    One of the best purchases I’ve made in quite some time. I loved this game growing up and it’s just as good now. I had some trouble getting it to work at first, but after awhile of cleaning it the games works every time first try
