Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 was great.
Pros: I like getting to play as both Peter & Milles individual. The way they used their version of the black suit is so cool. The Voice Acting in this sequel game was incredible. Kraven was the best villain in this game. I did feel a lot of the emotion going on in every cut scene. The MJ missions are definitely approved. The theme of “second chances” was wonderfully well handled with previous characters from spider-man’s law. Playing this on “amazing” difficulty allowed me to challenge myself as a player and I had fun playing this one more than the first because it still fresh in my mind.
Cons: Some of the side missions are hit & miss for me. I still didn’t like they change the face models for the main characters like MJ & I had many problems with the story mode.
