Spider-Man 2 has an amazing opening start of the game with your battle against sandman. After that the game feel a little stale for awhile. While i appreciate them giving you the option of playing as either Spider-Man in the game, it sometimes would make the game harder to progress through. This game felt more gear towards Peter Parker being the story, and the miles morales missions and interactions didn't seem like they always fit with the game. It felt like it wasn't a 2 Spider-Man game, but a Peter Parker Spider-Man game with them finding ways for Miles Morales having to be super involved since he exist in this universe.

Kraven always felt like just a placeholder "main villian" as I was playing the game, because I was more waiting for Venom to finally show up. Once Venom showed up, the game really took off for me. I wish there would have been more Venom in the game and more symbiotes. Mary Jane turning into the Scream symbiote was awesome and they should have included more symbiote "bosses" leading up to your fight with Venom.

I love the teases they have set-up to potentially be followed up on for the next game with Doc Ock, Carnage, Norman Osborn looking to take down Spider-Man, and the Spider Verse/Spider-Man 2099 mention. I liked the introduction of Wraith into the story and universe. Mary-Jane is OP with that gun of hers.

Spider-Man 2 is a very solid game, but I don't think it can beat out the 2018 Marvel Spider-Man for me.
