Spiderman 2 Game Free Download Full Version For PC
Once bitten, twice the guy. Thanks to the bite of an irradiated spider, budding boy genius Peter Parker suddenly finds himself turned into a superhuman with the powers of a spider. The rest is comic book history. As the Marvel Comics superhero Spider-Man, Parker has been entertaining legions of fans for 40 years through a string of comic book titles and animated series. If the Spider-Man game is any indication, the general love affair with all things Speedy burns as brightly as ever. Originally developed by Never soft, the developer behind the hit Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series, Spider-Man first swung its way onto the PlayStation, and soon leapt to the Nintendo 64, Game Boy Color, and Dreamcast. Now the third-person action-adventure game has come to the PC to make true believers out of computer gamers. Along the way, though, it's run into a few snags that often dampen the game's more entertaining aspects.
He story, told through cut
scenes, voice-overs, and in-game dialogue, opens at a conference held by the
renowned Dr. Otto Octavia’s, who's preparing to demonstrate his latest
invention. While the good doctor pontificates about the virtues of progress
through technology, Spider-Man suddenly leaps onto the stage and makes off with
Octavia’s' device before the assembled crowd. Since the real Spider-Man, Peter
Parker, stands among the members of the press taking photos for the Daily Bugle
newspaper, it can only mean an imposter is at large and ruining Spidey's
already tenuous reputation. Parker's jealous journalistic competition at the
Bugle, Eddie Brock, also witnesses the shocking event. The fact that Octavius
is really the supervillain Dr. Octopus and Brock plays host to an evil alien
symbiote named Venom can only mean more outlandish trouble for our
wall-crawling hero. This game takes classic superhero melodrama and unashamedly
runs with it.
After the game's mysterious
opening sequence, you begin your heroic adventures in New York City. You start
by foiling a bank heist and then move up to greater challenges like evading a
missile-firing police helicopter that chases after our framed hero. Later,
you'll fight swarming lizardmen on top of a rushing subway train and battle
alien symbiotes in the Daily Bugle. All told, there are eight main locations,
like Manhattan's rooftops, a high-rise bank, and the New York City sewer
system, making for around 30 3D levels in all. Gameplay primarily revolves
around platform jumping, a little stealth, and beating up lots and lots of bad
guys. During your adventures, you'll meet fellow heroes like Daredevil, Black
Cat, and the Human Torch who'll offer tips and villains like Scorpion, Rhino,
and Venom who'll beat you to a pulp if you're not quick with your webshooters.
No matter how smartly you
play, be ready for some hassles--the game uses a save point system instead of
letting you save when you choose. Game designers seem to ignore the fact that
in the real world, not all gamers have the luxury of playing for long,
uninterrupted stretches until they can reach a save point or the end of a
level. At least you can tackle the game on four different difficulty levels,
including a "kid mode" that simplifies the controls and gameplay for
the younger set.
To foil villains and save the
day, you'll employ around 18 moves. For simple problems, a number of simple
solutions are on hand (or foot): You can jump, grab, punch, and kick your way
out of the game's lesser binds. Thanks to that fateful spider bite, Spidey can
perform all these moves with extraordinary strength and agility. These core
moves can be linked into combos, like jumping punches or the "grab and
kick," where you sneak up behind a villain, grab him, and then
unceremoniously give him the boot. Of course, Spider-Man's chief claims to
fame, other than running around New York City in bright tights, are his
masterful web slinging talents. Here's where the game's combat gets
interesting, thanks to Spider-Man's arsenal of clever web weapons. You can
sling webs that temporarily enmesh enemies or flick distant switches. If
standard punches aren't working for you, you can create spiked gloves out of
your webbing for added damage. You can borrow a page from Captain America's
(comic) book and create your own web shield for defense. For pummeling villains
from a distance, you can launch balls of webbing at them. If that doesn't get
their attention, you can shoot a web line at them and yank them in the
direction of your choosing. No matter what approach you use, you'll find that
enemies aren't overly bright; bad guys rely more on brute force than anything
else. "Mindless thugs” indeed.
