The several versions are quite different, but should all probably be covered in this article with emphasis on the console version (as it was the most successful). Confusingly, the one for the PC was apparently designed for children. -- Mrwojo 16:45, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)

You are right, i should have put some work by showing the differences of the versions, they are different. Yes the pc version was for children...so...what?

At the end of the game, you can unlock a warehouse at the spidey-stores that lets you fight in timed, endurance, and boss rounds (unlocked in that order). The Boss rounds include a boss called Calypso (article needs serious work) so I thought it notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sir Lewk ( talk • contribs) 18:04, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
What warehouse? i checked every cheats, i didn't see any unlocking warehouse.
>x<ino 08:34, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
yes i know there was an unlock for unlocking the movies. I didnt know that battle arena was there? link please to where it says you can unlock battle arena:D >x<ino 18:26, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
yeah i remember that, its just a series of waves of enemies from the game that you have fought. It keeps on going until you lose. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.170.44.145 ( talk) 21:53, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

All atricle must be linked to this main article!
what do you think?
i will be starting a article on one of em, but the problem is the name >x<ino 08:47, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
I did some major clean up's on this article, which was badly edited.
This article will be "stub" for more informtion, and also more strong trivia, the other ones were weak

Also, this article mentions the ability to explore all of NYC, which simply isn't true. One can explore Manhatten, Ellis Island, Liberty Island, and Roosevelt Island, not the rest of the city (Queens, etc).

Critical reception The game was released to generally positive reviews. The most popular aspect of the game was the web-swinging mechanic. However, parts of the game were highly criticized, such as the dullness of the side missions and the linearity of the story objectives (which many saw to be contrary to the developers' idea of creating a free-form game).
How do we know there is a critic to the game!?
But anyway, it might be:P
I can't see that this game is particularly aimed towards children. If it was, I think the statement in the article needs expansion to explain how this was so (ie: in what way would the console versions have been more adult oriented?). The titles have been confusing though. I seem to remember that there was a game released for the PS1 or PS2 that looked great, but there was a version of the game released on the PC which was specifically marked on the box as being geared towards children.
I would suggest that, if the game on the PC had a slightly different (more simple) format, then there could have been any number of reasons for that - including technical reasons or a basic re-design for the platform. In other words, if it was in any way more 'simple' in layout or whatever, then stating that the game was aimed at a younger audience could be seen as POV. -- Mal 05:19, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia does not allow Original Research, so why are they here? If you can get some sources for them, they can stay, but currently they must be removed. J.J.Sagnella 11:13, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

In the garment district, in the outside walls of the warehouse where you fight the robot suits and other goon with black cat, are sprays that say "The distillers" and "Coral Fang". Obviously a reference to the band, but has anyone else noticed this, and is there a story behind it? I'm not sure if they appear only in the night or something. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Puffe ( talk • contribs) 11:18, 14 April 2007 (UTC).
In the main entry, it says:
What "old White House" and what hotels? I suppose it doesn't have to be in the article itself, but I'm sure there would be enough people who are curious about it to at least warrant a small list here on the discussion page.

I know that there was a promotion on Cheeze-It boxes that stated if you turned in x-amount of barcode things, that you would get a PC Demo, which I have. (I also have the real game.) Would this belong anywhere in the artical? ( 66.190.139.140 ( talk) 16:59, 4 March 2008 (UTC))

Is it really appropriate to call the character Doc Ock or Ock over and over rather than Dr. Octopus? I mean, for an encyclopedia it seems a little off, like if an article calling Queen Elizabeth "Liz" over and over. 76.226.100.253 ( talk) 18:41, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
I think a gameplay section in the article is in order rather than simply mentioning a few details in the heading about gameplay. This game has more points to be mentioned about the gameplay, such as the games counter system incorporating Spider-Man's Spider-sense during combat and subsequent attacks following a counter that are purchased in the "Spidey-stores" throughout the city. Also, a few of the various side missions found in the city should probably be addressed, among more content not mentioned thus far. This video game article is the first I have encountered that does not have a section reserved for gameplay, a game like this could use one? –– 45.30.153.24 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.30.153.24 ( talk) 21:42, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
I realize this is a very old page and a very old game, but obviously interest in Spider-Man games is high right now. I noticed the page says that people were unhappy that the PC game was advertised as being the same as the console game. I have found trailers that list the PC and console versions as if they're the same:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcZSKvnFZRM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYoewjl5Yd8
Is that enough to add a citation for that statement, or do we need to find one that suggests this actually confused people? Sorry, it's been years since I've done anything on Wikipedia; I just happened to see this and figured I'd be able to find some sources. -- Unknownwarrior33 ( talk) 14:37, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
Does this page need to be renamed? Marvel's Spider-Man 2 was announced today. Matthew Cenance ( talk) 20:52, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
According to /info/en/?search=KMFDM_discography KMFDM did the music for the game, now considering there is no info about this on the Spiderman page, I thought it was a joke (or a mistake at the very least). But just in case I checked youtube and there is a score by KMFDM for the game How come this is not mentioned anywhere in the page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by HenriDeadMort ( talk • contribs) 22:01, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
Hi, I see you removed my "about" hatnote on the 2004 Spider-Man 2 game article. But I have seen the use of a hatnote like this on many other articles that have a disambiguator in the title too, such as Ratchet & Clank (2002 video game). If the 'this article is about the 2004 video game' text is redundant, then how about making it simply 'for the 2023 video game, see Spider-Man 2 (2023 video game)'? I think it'd be great to have at least some sort of hatnote link to the 2023 game article, as there is no link or mention of the 2023 game anywhere else in the article, thus making navigation/searching more difficult.
