  1. Gorgeous graphics, solid gameplay, and a wonderful audio track make this version of Spider-man 2 a winner. This is one game that gamers deserve to see on the PSP, simply because of the “wow” factor.
  2. In some areas, the graphics rival that of the PS2 version. Spider-Man looks sharp, the cut-scenes are cool, and the environments are nicely done. In addition to looking good, the game also runs very smoothly.
  3. D-Pad camera controls are painfully slow.
  4. Better than the first PS2 Spider-Man game, but not quite as ambitious as Spider-Man 2 on consoles, this is still a rewarding and engaging game with a bit less action than I would have hoped for.
  5. Even though you can’t freely walk around in a recreated Columbia University (like the console games), Spider-Man 2 for the PSP is recommended. Be warned though: the game can be completed in around five hours (and I was taking my time).
  6. A fun adventure title that gamers will enjoy. It's a nice, straight forward game that has some good graphics and cut scenes from the movie.

    It is the very first 3D Spider-Man game on a handheld system and it looks amazing. It looks even better on the PSP due to the small screen. Gone is the ape-like out of disproportionate Spider-Man from the console game sequel and in it's place is that high gloss crisp well put together model from the original.
  8. The controls are intuitive and the combat intense.
  9. While it’s nowhere as deep in terms of gameplay as its home console big brother, the PSP version of Spider-Man 2 is a pretty exciting effort.
  10. Clean up some of the camera issues, add some length, and this could have been the PSP launch title to own, but as it is, the title is worth a weekend rental.

    Additional story elements and their accompanying stages mesh very nicely into the movie framework as well. [May 2005, p.69]

    Наверное и правда стоит играть только в версию для PS 2.
    PSP версия - это местами приятная атмосфера фильмов и максимально кривое управление.

    PSP версия - это местами приятная атмосфера фильмов и максимально кривое управление. Да и не только управление косое. Огрызок, а не игра. Даже из любопытства, наверное, не стоит запускать.
