Treyarch adaptation of the second Spider-Man film, a major step forward for the licence. Open New York to swing through, cinematic staging and varied missions. A formula that became iconic, already very effective here. Great on GameCube.

Description
Spider-Man battles Doctor Octopus and saves Mary Jane in New York streets in this Treyarch GameCube action game. Published by Activision, released in the United States in July 2004. Action-adventure with Spider-Man swinging on webs through New York, film bosses and varied missions.
Released in 2004, this Treyarch game tips the license into open world and offers one of the most convincing web swinging of its time, where the strands really attach to buildings. Crossing Manhattan by swinging delivers a movement pleasure still rare today. The repetitive side missions and an uneven presentation show, yet the freedom of movement and the faithfulness to the film's spirit more than compensate. Fans of superheroes find a landmark whose central idea left a mark on the genre.
