Spider-Man FAQ v.1 for Nintendo GameCube
Unpublished work Copyright 2002 Adam Weese
Spider-Man, all characters within, and Marvel are copyright their respective
owners.
Authors Note: This guide was created using the GameCube version of Spider-Man.
While it may be used with the PlayStation 2 or X-Box versions, you would be
best
using a guide for the game on that system. I will not do anything on the X-Box
exclusive Kraven levels, so please do not e-mail me asking me about that. And
also,
this guide may contain spoilers, so read at your own discretion!
CONTRIBUTIONS, FEEDBACK AND QUESTIONS: If you have anything you
don't see here that you'd like to share, please e-mail it to me. My rules for
contributions are simple. The first person who sends it to me receives credit
for it.
So if you see something you contributed, but the credit went to someone else,
sorry,
but they beat you to the punch. For questions, please read the FAQ all the way
through and make sure the question isn't answered within before asking me.
Feedback is appreciated too, but please remember that constructive criticism is
good while saying "You suck!" is bad. My e-mail address for all of these things
is
offspringprick@yahoo.com.
UPDATES: v.1 4/22/02 – My very first FAQ. In this version I made… well. The
whole thing!
NEXT UPDATE: I'm not sure when it will be, but I hope to have some
contributions to complete the guide by then. Also, I'm going to have a section
on
using the Green Goblin and possibly a fighting guide. I need to find all the
combos
first though. If you know of any I don't please send them in.

BIRTH OF A HERO…
Orphaned at a young age, Peter Parker lives in Queens, New York with his
beloved
Aunt May and Uncle Ben. Peter leads the life of a good-hearted, yet solitary,
teenager making his way through high school.
On a school trip to a research institute, Peter Parker's class is given a
demonstration of genetic research conducted on spiders. Peter is bitten by one
of the
genetically altered spiders. The next morning, Peter discovers that suddenly
his
vision is perfect and his previously scrawny body has become muscular—he now
has incredible strength, and his hands mysteriously adhere like glue to
everything.
Peter gradually teaches himself to gain better control of his powers.
Initially, he uses
his ESP-like "Spider-Sense" and superhuman strength, speed and agility to make
money in order to impress the lovely Mary Jane. However it is only through the
tragic death of his uncle that Peter learns that "with great power comes great
responsibility." It is these words that transform Peter Parker from a teenager
with
extraordinary powers into the amazing Spider-Man, a super-hero out to protect
the
city from a never-ending supply of perils.
Meanwhile, in a lab at OsCorp, Spider-Man's ultimate nemesis is about to be
born…
Are you up to the challenge?

you stop rotating (or rotate too slow), release any button, or run out of
webbing, the
target will be thrown, and the twirl stopped. The twirling enemy will also
become a
weapon, damaging anything he hits.
MY PERSONAL PREFERENCE: I go with Classic Controls because I'm just more
used to them. Enhanced can provide you with more overall control though so if
you
are new to the game I suggest you begin by trying to use them so you can master
them. Keep in mind that this FAQ is written using the Classic Controls,
although
that shouldn't make much of a difference.

II. CHEATS, SECRET STORE AND GLITCHES
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
1. Secret Store
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
WHAT IS IT: The Secret Store is basically the backbone of the replay value in
Spider-Man. It lets you unlock various things in the game by either earning
enough
points to unlock them, or by beating the game on a certain difficulty level.
HOW DO I GET POINTS: Points in Spider-Man are awarded for the way you
complete a level. You will always receive a base amount of points on a level
just for
completing it, but each level also has bonus points you can earn by killing
extra
enemies or not using pick-ups or various other methods. It all depends on the
level.
For more on what levels have what bonuses, see the Walkthrough.
ANYTHING ELSE I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT POINTS: Yes, there is. Points are
cumulative, meaning you don't actually "spend" the points at the store. When
you
have earned 10,000 points, you unlock the first secret. When you earn another
10,000 (for a total of 20,000) you unlock the second secret. Also, when you
earn
points on a lesser difficulty level, then get them on the same level, but on a
higher
difficulty setting, you will only earn the difference between the two. For
example,
you get 500 points for beating a level on Easy and you get 700 points for
beating a
level on Normal. Beat the same level on both difficulties, and you will only
actually
earn 700 points for it. In this way, the game pretty much forces you to play
the
higher difficulties if you want to earn the more expensive secrets.
WHAT CAN I GET: When you have earned 10,000 points, you will receive a bonus
training level called Pinhead Bowling. For more information on this, see the
Training and Pinhead Bowling sections of this FAQ.
When you have earned 20,000 bonus points, you will receive a bonus movie
featuring Vulture. This can be viewed in the GALLERY/MOVIE VIEWER menu of
the game.
When you have earned 30,000 bonus points, you will receive a bonus movie
featuring Shocker. This can be viewed in the GALLERY/MOVIE VIEWER menu
of the game as well.
When you have earned 50,000 bonus points, you will receive organic webbing.
This
just means you have an infinite supply of webbing as Spider-Man and an infinite
supply of pumpkin bombs as Green Goblin.
When you have beaten the game on the Easy difficulty setting or higher, you
will
earn the ability to play the game through as Peter Parker.
When you have beaten the game on the Easy difficulty setting or higher, you
will
also earn the ability to play the game using Spider-Man's wrestling costume.
When you have beaten the game on the Normal difficulty setting or higher, you
will
earn the ability to play the game using the costume Alex Ross designed for
Spider-
Man. This secret will also show Green Goblin in Alex Ross' design. I personally
think this Goblin is much better looking than the final one…
When you have beaten the game on the Hero difficulty setting or higher, you
will
earn the ability to play the game through as Green Goblin (Harry Osborn). This
is
the only of the extra 'costumes' (including the Cheats ones) that actually
changes
the game. The Green Goblin not only controls much differently than Spider-Man,
he also has completely new dialogue throughout the levels.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
2. Cheats
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
WHERE DO I ENTER THE CHEATS IN: Go to SPECIALS and then CHEATS.
Enter the cheat exactly as it appears to use it. A laugh and the screen dimming
for a
second will confirm correct code entry.
HOW DO I DISABLE A CHEAT: Some will be disabled automatically if you shut
off the game and then turn it back on. Any of them can be de-activated by
reentering the same code in again at the CHEATS menu.
ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT CHEATS: Try not to use them. They're really there
just in case you really can't do the task, but I guarantee with a little
persistence, that
you will be able to overcome anything in Spider-Man. The only ones I really use
are
the various fun skins for Spidey (that also have no effect on gameplay just
like
Spidey's alternate costumes).
WHAT ARE THE CHEATS: To the left is the code you enter at the CHEATS menu
and to the right is the effect that the cheat will have on the game.
ARACHNID – This cheat will enable Pinhead Bowling, have all levels unlocked in
the Level Warp, have all movies unlocked in the Movie Viewer and have all
Production Art unlocked.
IMIARMAS – This cheat will unlock all levels in the Level Warp.
HEADEXPLODY – This cheat will enable the Pinhead Bowling training level.
ORGANICWEBBING – This cheat will give you infinite webbing as Spider-Man
and infinite pumpkin bombs as Green Goblin.
CHILLOUT – This cheat makes it so that Green Goblin's glider (try saying that
three times fast) will never overheat.
ROMITAS – This cheat will enable a "Next Level" option under the Pause Menu.
Whenever you select it, you will skip to the next level.
KOALA – This cheat will enable all Combat Controls.
GIRLNEXTDOOR – This cheat lets you play in a Mary Jane skin.
HERMANSCHULTZ – This cheat lets you play in a Shocker skin.
KNUCKLES – This cheat lets you play in a thug model skin.
STICKYRICE – This cheat lets you play in a different thug model skin.
THUGSRUS – This cheat lets you play in yet another different thug model skin.
REALHERO – This cheat lets you play in a police officer skin.
CAPTAINSTACEY – This cheat lets you play in a helicopter pilot's skin.
SERUM – This cheat lets you play in a scientist skin.
FREAKOUT – This is another different skin. It is of a dude who attacks you in
the
Big Brawl training level. Don't know his name though.
DODGETHIS – This cheat will make the action go into slow motion whenever you
land a powerful blow on an opponent.
SPIDERBYTE – This cheat makes Spider-Man small.
GOESTOYOURHEAD – This cheat gives Spider-Man a big head and big feet. His
shadow is even affected by this cheat. Gotta love those small details.
JOELSPEANUTS – This cheat gives the enemies big heads and feet.
UNDERTHEMASK – This cheat enables a first person view. While this is hardly
practical, it is probably the coolest of all the cheats.
CONTRIBUTE: If you have any cheats that aren't listed here, please contribute
them. I will give you proper credit in the Credits section of this FAQ.

3. Glitches
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
WHAT'S A GLITCH: A glitch is something that slips by quality control. Something
in the game that happens and isn't supposed to. This is bad for the developer.
But
good for gamers. We thrive on these glitches sometimes. Finding a rare one is
like
finding $100 bill on the street to some of us. The main reason I put this FAQ
together was to share the one glitch I found on my own with you all.
HOW DO I KNOW I'VE FOUND A GLITCH: You'll know when something
happens that doesn't usually. You'll have to use your own discretion to decide
what's a glitch and what is a secret. It should be pretty easy to tell the
difference
though.
OKAY, I'M DYING TO KNOW THE GLITCHES: All right ladies and gentlemen,
but first, a little disclaimer. I take absolutely now responsibility for any
damage
these glitches may cause to your game, memory card, system, you, your family,
your
friends, your house, your toilet paper…any damage they might cause. The chances
of them causing any are unlikely, but it could happen so the disclaimer has
been
laid.
GREEN GOBLIN GLITCH (G3) – This one takes place in the level, "The Offer".
After you have damaged Green Goblin (hereafter referred to as GG) enough while
in the air, he will go down into a building. You will then take place in some
fisticuffs
with him. Eventually, he will go out the door in this building and hop back on
his
glider. Your goal, during this is to gauge his life meter and determine when he
is
going to get back on his glider. It may take a couple of tries. When you
finally can
tell, go back and do it until he's about to take off. Then, make sure you are
web
swinging when the cut scene of GG running to his glider plays. If all goes
right, you
will swing right through the wall during the cut scene and be clinging to the
outside
of the building when it ends. Now, GG should be completely frozen in his tracks
in
mid-air.
Warning: The game seems to think when GG is frozen that you aren't anywhere
near him. So it will begin to warn you that you need to engage in combat with
him
before he runs off. It will shortly thereafter show a cut scene of him running
off,
calling you boring. So just use this for fun, not when you are actually trying
to beat
the level.
CONFIRM: I can't seem to get this glitch to work again. Anyone who can confirm
that this is how it is done, please send an e-mail confirming it. The first
three people
who confirm it will be added to the Credits section of this FAQ
CHAOS – Okay, so this one isn't really a glitch. But since this section will
probably
be rather bare, I decided to add it anyway. In some of the outdoor levels, you
will
notice the word 'CHAOS' mysteriously form in the middle of the air. What could
this mean? An ominous warning? A reference to that water dude in Sonic
Adventure? Or are the developers just screwing with us? I'll let you be the
judge.
CONTRIBUTE: I need contributions for this section bad folks. It would be
greatly
appreciated if you could send in any glitches you have found or heard about.
You
will be given proper credit in the Credits section of this FAQ of course.

1. Basic Training
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
You'll play through Basic Training as Peter Parker, apparently discovering your
powers for the very first time. Your guide will be…Bruce Campbell?? Why? I
dunno, but it sure is cool. Just follow your compass to each "?" and follow
Bruce's
instructions and you will do fine. This isn't a competitive training level,
unlike most
of the others.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
2. Basic Combat
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
In this level, you will fight a seemingly endless supply of thugs in the very
ring in
which Spidey whooped up on poor BoneSaw. The key here is the same as every
other fighting situation. Combo, roll out, combo roll out. Try to keep your
combos
varied. For a real cheap win, turn on organic webbing and sit up on the roof
and
shoot off impact webbing, killing an endless stream of nobodies. Either way,
this
level was really just meant so that you could test your acquired combos. But
you can
win it. After killing off enough thugs, BoneSaw will appear for a rematch. He
isn't
really hard at all. In fact, all he seems to do are straight punches. But, he
takes a
LOT of hits to go down. It's hard to get off a combo without him hitting you
too.
The best strategy I've come up with his to jump punch him, then hit him with a
P, P,
P combo and repeat. He never blocks so don't worry. Like I said, he isn't
tough, he
just takes patience. Congratulations if you win this mode because you get no
reward
for beating it.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
3. Basic Air Combat
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
This one has you swinging through the skyline, destroying Goblin targets. It's
not
hard to complete at all, but getting a top time is trickier. As with just about
all
swinging, using the Enhanced Controls is better. If you want the best time,
you're
gonna have to work. The green and blue targets can be destroyed with a simple
swinging kick. This is easier said than done though. You need to make a near
perfect run, not missing a swing or kick. Then, when you get to the red
targets, you
will find your swing kick useless as it takes more than one hit. The only way
you can
hit these targets and even hope to make it through quick enough is to shoot
four
webs at them, then punch them. Still, the run will need to be near perfect and
it will
be very tough. If you try this, then I commend you because it is tough. Good
luck.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
4. Target Switching
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
This is a doozy. This training level is kinda dumb because it is too hard to
switch
between targets in the first place. This level just makes that fact even
clearer. You
will have to lock onto musical notes and hit them with impact webbing in the
order
they are played. Better have a good memory, because it will take forever to
lock
onto one target then get to another. I don't like this level at all. Do
yourself a favor
and forget it.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
5. Basic Swing Training
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
Okay, for starters, I'm gonna assume you know to put the controls on Enhanced
mode. But heck, this one is so easy that you can even use Classic and still get
the top
place. The pattern of the level is right turn, left turn and so on. Some turns
are
wider than others, but most of them you can speed right through. Just go do
this
one, you don't need too much help here.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
6. Advanced Swing Training
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
This one is a little tougher, but I still don't think it's nothing we can't
handle. If
you've mastered how to turn without losing velocity in Enhanced Controls mode,
then you can do this, piece of cake. The layout is almost exactly the same as
the
Basic level, but the corridors are much narrower. If you're really good, you
can get
the top time using Classic Controls here. Just try this one a few times and you
will
get the hang of it.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
7. Expert Swing Training
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
This one is, obviously, much tougher. But it is still manageable; especially if
you
mastered the other 2 swing trainings first. There are new obstacles to deal
with here
though. You will have to go up inclines often. If you are swinging in
accelerated
mode, you wont make it up these without clinging to a wall. That spells doom!
So
when you see a sharp uphill, slow down those swings mister. If you come to a
place
that is telling you to go up but it looks completely impossible to pass, then
break
your swing and turn around. Yep, there are loops here, as Bruce told you. Other
than those two things, make sure you aren't swinging too high to the ceiling,
or you
will crawl onto it. But really that applies to all the levels. Try it a few
times and you
should get the top place.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
8. Basic Zip Training
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
I think this level is a little too forgiving. I got top place my first try with
tons of
screw-ups. But I'm not too good at aiming my zip. (No dirty jokes please). Just
follow the arrows, what else can I say. Always be aiming in the way of the next
arrow and just…go. I dunno. If I can beat it, you can.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
9. Advanced Zip Training
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
Once again, I chose to completely ignore the precise zip aim of the look around
mode. And to good effect. Again, this is a very forgiving course. I got top
place on
this my first try as well! Maybe I'm better with my zip than I thought. Or
maybe the
developers knew these levels would be hard because of the disorientation
involved
with zipping around so they made them easier. Whatever the case, again follow
the
arrows and that's about all I can say. Make sure to break your zip before you
hit a
wall. This course is slightly twistier than the basic one so be alert.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
10. Expert Zip Training
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
This one ain't so bad either. It is tougher than the first two though. The
first room is
just a huge mess, with multiple paths, many of which are completely
unnecessary.
So if you take a turn that didn't do much, restart and try again. When you
finally
leave that room, it's more clear sailing. You'll then find that you are zipping
on
conviently placed towers. The trick here is to zip on the farthest away tower
so you
can go forward faster. As always, break your line before hitting the wall. So
you can
use look around mode if you want, but I still prefer good old-fashioned
intuition.
Don't forget when you see the finish zone that you will have to double jump to
get
in. And for me, I think this was easier than the other two zip trainings.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
11. Swing Rings
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
This level is actually quite easy once you know how to swing. I did it with
Classic
controls, no problem. Not only did I get the top place, I got it quite handily
(2:01).
Basically, just accelerate when possible, but don't worry too much about it. I
didn't
accelerate most of the way through and still won. If you see a ring appear
above you,
then definitely stop accelerating. If you pass by a ring, don't bother trying
to turn
around and pass through again as you have to pass through them the correct way.
If
you've done all the other swing trainings, you'll get this on your first try.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
12. Swing Platforms
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
Unlike Swing Rings, acceleration is important here. You'll never make it if you
don't accelerate at possible opportunities. So do just that. As always, stop
accelerating when a platform appears above you so you can climb faster. The
platforms get smaller and smaller so be mindful of that. Other than that, it
will
probably take you a few tries to get top place on this, but it shouldn't take
too many.
It's not all that tough.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
13. Big Brawl
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
Now this is tough! You have to defeat several waves of enemies in the time
allotted
and so on. I can't even get past the first wave! Weird dudes, razors, light
mechs and
HKs attack you all at the same time. If anyone has a good strategy for this
level,
please send it in. You will be given credit.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
14. Pinhead Bowling
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^
You'll have to unlock this bizarre training level before you can play it (see
the
'Secret Store' section of this FAQ). In it, you use Spider-Man as a human
bowling
ball to swing down a lane and kick human bowling pins. You can play up to 4
players and it is actually a decent time waster. It's possible to bowl a
perfect game,
though hard. To do so, you have got to do the same thing every time. There are
different places you can hit the pinheads that will make them strike every
time, but
the best I've found, is just to the right of the middle pinhead. Just as you
are almost
above him, being your kick and kind of veer to the left. With practice, you can
bowl
a strike every time. Challenge your friends to a game and humiliate them. Have
fun.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^

Here we are at the final training grounds. There's good reason it is the final
too. It's
pretty tough. Here, you will have to act very quickly and never make a mistake.
Because each time you stick to any surface, even the floor, you will have 5
seconds
added to your time. You will have to use all your skills to zip and swing.
Personally,
I swing most of the way through, though when an opportunity arises that the zip
is
better, I take it. I still haven't gotten a top time in this course, so if
anyone has any
game winning strategies, send them in to help fellow gamers. You will also be
credited.

IV. WALKTHROUGH
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
PREFACE: I won't differentiate between the difficulty settings (unless
otherwise
noted) as the only differences are that the enemies take more hits to go down
and the
items will be in different places within the level sometimes. It's best to
assume this
guide is written for the Normal difficulty level however, as that is what I
played
through mainly when having all of this in mind. I have beaten it on Hero
however,
but the same basic tactics apply. There are a couple self-explanatory bonuses,
such
as Level Completion. And Style, which is given for mixing up your attacks and
being varied. You won't get any Style points for doing the same thing over and
over.
A Perfect bonus means you got a run without ever getting hit; no easy task by
any
means. The easiest way to get a perfect is to earn the organic webbing and use
a lot
of impact webbing. This is cheap, but if you must, you must. I will provide a
few
small tips on getting perfects in the levels I can. Also, keep in mind that you
don't
have to earn all the bonuses in one run. That would be impossible. Anyone with
strategies, please CONTRIBUTE. So, without much further ado, here we go.
#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^#^

Style
As soon as the level begins, you will find your first gold spider icon, which
will grant
you a new combo move. This one will give you the Field Goal (B, B, X). Now,
you'll
want to start the level by getting the secret bonus, which will involve a crazy
roof
touring lady and her lost purse.
Begin the process by swinging to the first tall building to your left, from the
start of
the level. It will have kind of orange colored windows. Once atop it, you must
defeat
the two thugs, then the crazy lady will tell you she lost her purse on a
different
rooftop. To get the purse, head north from this rooftop, and just below you,
you'll
see a billboard advertising Latvania. Ignoring your urge to visit the place
immediately, scour around the rooftop of the building that this sign is
attached to
and defeat the two thugs. Grab the purse in one of the niches (don't ask, just
search
the roof) and return it to the lady.
The rest of the level is a cinch. Just follow your compass and height meter and
beat
up the thugs. There will usually be two per a rooftop. Eventually, you will
beat scare
some answers out of one of the thugs and he will direct you to the warehouse.
Just
follow your compass there, and walk into the spider icon to end this level.
Getting a perfect on this level is easy if you do it the cheap way. Just swing
by, and
do a homing punch. Wash, rinse, repeat. Watch out for the guys with guns
though.
Style points are awarded for the way you do combat. Mix your attacks up instead
of
doing the same old thing to get the goods. Remember this from now on, because I
won't mention it for later levels. I'm not exactly sure what constitutes the
combat
bonus yet, so if you know, please CONTRIBUTE and inform us.

BONUSES;
Level Completion
Stealth Bonus
Secret(s) Found
Style
The first thing to worry about here is getting the Backflip Kick (B,X,X) combo.
As
you run out the first door, it is directly in your path so you can't miss it.
Now, the stealth bonus is easier to get than you would think. First, run out
the
second door, to the place with the car in the middle, but make sure to stop
once out
the door. Make sure you are still in that shadows. You can tell you are hidden
in
shadows when Spider-Man's face is completely blue. Now, zip up onto the
ceiling.
Crawl forward, across the room, towards the garage door. Stop when you are
fairly
close to it. And make sure you remain in the shadows all the time. Your goal is
to
drop down at just the right time and enter the garage door without being seen.
If
you enter the regular door next to it, you can also sneak up on an enemy in
here.
Anyway, once the guard below you and the one patrolling the upper catwalk are
turned so that they can't see you, drop down and run for the door. Once you're
through, you are successful. Make sure that after you are in the door, the
guards in
that room still don't see you. It doesn't matter that any other guards see you,
just
the ones in the stealth room.
Next up is the secret bonus. This one is simple. Right after the stealth room,
in this
hallway, before you leave it, you will see a stack of wood boxes. Just jump
through
the opening at the upper left side of them and it will tell you that you found
a secret
area. Badda bing, that's it. And um…beat up those pesky thugs of course.
After you go through the door, you'll be in a room where you are attacked by
multiple thugs. If you are getting pounded, don't be afraid to web sling away
to the
ceiling to regroup. Make sure to take out the guy in the red with the gun
before
anyone else. Directly afterwards, you will have to go around the side of a semi
truck.
As soon as you step forward a little ways, your spider senses will go off, so
step back
because that forklift ahead of you is ready to squish you. After dodging it,
beat up
the thug and go back there. Stand on the grating and zip upward. From now on,
remember that almost every time you see a grating on the floor like this, it
will most
likely have a duct you can zip up into directly above.
Take the first left in the duct. If you go forward, you'll get fried. Now, drop
down
and press the B button near the flashing red button to shut off the power in
that
duct (convenient that they have power buttons to shut off the practical cut
electrical
wires nearby). Anyway, go back up into the duct and continue past the
previously
electrified hall.
You'll find that you need a fuse to operate the control panel that will open a
door.
Some dumb thug yanked it out, so you'll have to beat the crap out of him of
course.
Go forward into the next room and a couple thugs will assault you. Make note of
the
grating in this room, but don't go up into the duct just yet. Go into another
room to
be attacked by, you guessed it, more thugs. Pull a Mr. T on them.
As you try to enter the door, you'll hear the dumb thug taunt you, saying you
aren't
getting the fuse. Head through the open vent to the left of the door and all
the way to
the end then shut off another power button. Go back to the grating you made
note
of earlier, follow the duct through, and beat the thug down for the fuse. This
thug is
stronger than the average one, but not by a lot.
Go back to the control panel and activate that sucker. Exit back to the room
with
the locked door via the duct in this room. You'll be assaulted by numerous
thugs,
but it's nothing you can't handle. Once you've beaten them, run towards the
open
door to end this level.

At the beginning of this level, zip up into the duct right away. Follow the
duct up
until you get to a hole you can drop down into. Stop right there mister. We
want to
go for a secret in this level, and it will involve a little stealth. Head to
the left of this
hole and you will come upon another hole. Now drop down. You have to work
quickly in this room or you will be seen. And if you are, the secret is blown.
So,
here's what to do.
After dropping down, step forward a little bit and zip up onto the ceiling in
this
room. Immediately start crawling forward, and hug the wall to your right as
much
as you can. Continue hugging the wall all the way around, until you see a
closed
door directly across from you. Crawl towards that door (don't zip or you'll be
spotted) and crawl down the wall in front of it. It will open up and not only
will you
avoid fighting extra goons, you will also receive the secret bonus. But that's
not all.
In the room, you will collect the Advanced Web Dome (X + Right on the D-Pad
twice). What could be better?
After getting that, go back out into the room and either fight the goons or go
into the
room directly to your left as you exit. You will see steam shooting out so slow
your
role for a minute. Activate look around mode and aim for the wall on the
opposite
side. When the steam clears, zip on over there. Continue down the hallway and
collect another gold spider icon, this time the Handspring (X,A,X). Go into the
next
room and prepare to face the wrath of loads of thugs. While waxing these
suckers,
make sure to put priority on the guys with guns. And don't be afraid to
hightail it to
higher ground if you're getting your butt kicked. Once you've defeated enough
guys
to get the key, use it on the locked door in the corner and move on.
Continue down a hallway until you come into a room with stairs leading up and
some steam shooting. You could take the stairs and get burnt by steam like a
stupid
normal man, but you're not a man. You're a Spider-Man! Stand in the middle of
the room and zip right up. Follow the hallways to your first boss encounter.
Time to
extract some payback on this punk.
BOSS FIGHT: Uncle Ben's Killer
You've got a couple of options in this battle. One is cheap and time consuming
while
the other is quicker and more dangerous. Or you can mix the two. Either way
though, your first step will be going into the main room and zipping up onto
the
ceiling. One option is to continually shoot impact webbing at the guy from the
ceiling. He will dodge a lot of shots, but get hit by a few as well. You can
collect the
blue spider icon to refill your webbing and start the process over again as
well. Also
note that he will shoot you occasionally while doing this. But it won't be as
bad as
taking a head on hit on the ground.
The other option is to wait on the ceiling until he turns his back, then to
drop down
and combo him. Don't bother trying to combo him more than once, as he will
begin
dodging. Tying him up in webbing won't work either.
I personally just kept impact webbing him until I ran out, then dropped down
and
whupped on him. It's your decision though. Either way, once he is dead, this
level is
over.
Also on a side note, getting the time bonus on this level isn't very difficult.
Just skip
all the battles in first room and only fight in the second room until you get
the key.

This level begins with some basic "training". Your first task is to swing
forward,
break your line and swing in the opposite direction. Yawn. Easy stuff. The next
one
is to lock onto the target in the air while swinging by. Ho-hum. Just follow
your
compass to the target. After that, you'll have to lock on and shoot webbing at
the
target. Thankfully this will be the last of these boring tasks. Follow your
compass
back to the beginning of the level and walk into the spider icon to really
begin the
level.
You will now have to fight off a slew of light mechs. First you will fight just
one.
Then two. Then three. And so on. The best way to knock these guys out is with a
single swinging kick. You can try other methods if you can't get the timing for
a
kick down, but if you're serious about getting the perfect in this level, you
will have
to do the swinging kick. The light mechs have a laser beam attack that is
absolutely
brutal on the higher difficulties. It can rip you apart in a matter of seconds.
You'll
want to be extra careful in a group of them. They also have an attack that
shoots an
energy ball at you. This isn't much of a concern. Also note that you cannot
jump
onto these guys backs, so don't bother trying.
To get the HKs bonus, you'll have to land on various building and defeat the
spider
like robots there. Sometimes, it takes a while for the HKs to appear. You might
have
to kill a few light mechs before they do. Just keep landing on building until
you find
some. HKs aren't much of a threat, but you'll want to be wary of their
flamethrower attack. It can kill you quickly. Also, you'll be a sitting target
for the
light mechs while fighting the HKs, so move and dodge often.
To get a perfect, you will need to master that swinging kick! Once you do, you
can
blaze through the mechs quickly and beat this level.

The first thing to take note of in this level is that the cops aren't really in
any danger
of dying. They fight back and they have a whole heck of a lot of health. The
one
civilian in this level who is getting beat up though, does not fight back and
has a
little less health. So when the time comes to rescue him and the cop, you know
your
priorities.
At the beginning of the level let the cop handle business for a bit while you
go and
get a new combo Head to the upper right as far as you can on the screen and on
the
ground is a gold spider icon for the Scissor Kick (X,B,X). Now, go join forces
with
the copper to lay a good old-fashioned ass whomping on the bad guys. Once
you've
saved him you will be shown a cut scene showing you where to head to next. Go
there now grasshopper! And remember, the civilian takes priority.
So you there yet? Good. You know the routine. Teach these dudes that crime
really
doesn't pay. Well, it does, but you will get your face kicked in for doing it.
Now, go
help the other cop in the main hallway out.
After you've helped him, you will be shown a cut scene in which Spidey insults
Shocker's choice of garb, then you will have to save a civilian before a
crumbling
tower falls onto him. And of course the idiot doesn't even notice the thing is
about to
fall on him because he's – you guessed it – talking on his cell phone. I tell
ya' boys
and girls, those things are the cause of most problems today. Anyway, run over
and
grab him, then deposit him in the glowing circle on the ground to save the day.
Beat up some more thugs, this time without having to worry about watching
another
guys health meter. After beating them in, watch the cut scene to see where your
next
target is, then go help the 2 guards fend off a swarm of thugs. After doing
that,
watch a cut scene and this level is over.
Getting the time bonus on this level couldn't be more straightforward. It shows
you
exactly where to go during every part of the level, it is basically on rails.
Just keep
trying until you are fast enough to beat it. Getting a perfect score can be a
little fun
though. A cool trick is to tie up the thugs with your webbing, then let the
cops
(slowly) beat the thug up. There will be a couple instances in which there
won't be
any cops around to do your dirty work though, but even then you can just hang
on
the ceiling and shoot impact webbing. No thugs in this level carry guns. This
method
will take a little patience, but it almost guarantees you a perfect.

At the very beginning of this level, two thugs will come running down the hall
to get
you. Make quick work of them, and then move on. As soon as you are out of the
hallway, pay attention to your left though, because there is a machine gun
toting
thug. He's slightly tougher than the average one. Dispose of him, collect the
key and
go out the door Shocker did.
Head across the water and into the hallway across from where you came in. Move
forward a little and a couple of goons will give you a warm welcome. Waste
them.
Move into the next room. Take the thugs on this top tier out before doing
anything
else. Now drop down into the second tier and take out the machine gun thug.
Activate the two switches here to open the door on the third level. Jump down
to the
third level and get rid of the stronger than average thug and move on. Go
across
another stream of water into a large room. Watch the cut scene. You'll find
that Vic
has started a water flow you can't get past. And he has ripped the switch for
it right
out of the way. Oh, that zany Vic.
Beat down the thugs in here. Collect the obviously placed Dive Bomb (B, A, A)
combo. Then go into the room Vic ran into. Vic will run away from you in here.
And
as you chase him, several of his friends will pop out to greet you. Give them a
fist in
the face to say thanks, and then when you catch up to Vic, tie him up in some
webbing to stop him. Combo him, tie him up and repeat till he coughs up the
valve.
When you have gotten the valve, return to the main room and place it back in
the
wall that Vic ripped it out of, then activate it. Once the water has stopped
flowing
out, run down the pipe. As you come out, you'll see a room above where you came
in
from. Crawl on up there, enter the room and activate the switch.
Continue on until you reach a room where a door shuts behind you when you
enter.
A couple of guys on the ground attack you. Ignore them for now, and go up top
where there are guys with guns and grenades. Kill them, then the regular guys.
The
door will open and in comes a new pack of goons. Some have grenades, so be
careful. You'll get a key once they are all downed. Use it to open a door at
the very
bottom pit of this room, and activate the switch in there. This will open a
door.
Enter it to exit this level.
Getting a time bonus on this level is the same as all of them. Work fast, know
the
exact route and avoid any unnecessary battles. Something to note on this level
is that
I did, in fact, get the combat bonus and I still don't know why. I have a hunch
it is
for beating every enemy in the level. Anyone that can confirm this, it would be
appreciated. Also, I have yet to find the secret on this level, so please

You've really got that blasted Shocker on the run now. You'll begin this level
facing
him down a long tunnel. Try entering and he will shoot a shockwave at you. Try
one
of the other 3 tunnels and he will just run to them and shoot another shockwave
at
you. So what's a spider to do? Precise web-zipping of course. Stand in front of
the
left-most of the four tunnels and go into look around mode. Aim for the spot
just
under the red light, where the black is. You'll have to be pretty precise, so
it might
take a few tries. If you land just right, you'll be in a crossway between the
tunnels
that is safe from Shocker's blasts. Continue zipping through these safe spots
until
your catch up with Shocker and he runs off.
Pull the level on the left to move the train. This will open up a path for you
to cross.
As soon as you get to the top, get ready to test your Spider agility. You will
see a
gold spider combo icon floating past in the rushing water quickly. You only get
one
chance to nab it, so act fast. This will give you the secret bonus for the
level as well
as the Uppercut (X,X,B) combo. Move onward into the next room, and then from
there, the next. You will now confront Shocker since there is no where left for
the
little coward to run.
BOSS FIGHT: Shocker
Shocker doesn't really have that many moves and most are predictable and easy
to
avoid. When you are far away, he will shoot shocker rings at you. Just be
swinging
when he does this and you'll be fine. He also has a move that he uses to hit
the
ground and jump, which will also hurt you if you're in close proximity. That's
why
you will have to do this one combo at a time. His other move is a whirlwind
that
pulls you in. Very slowly. After he does this move is your chance to attack, as
he will
be dizzy. Also, when he's not doing that, use impact webbing to knock a little
on
him.
Getting a time bonus on this level isn't tough. Just go through and beat
Shocker.
Preferably fast of course. Getting a perfect isn't tough either. During the
boss fight,
just have patience. Avoid him and swing around, shooting impact webbing
occasionally until he does the whirlwind move, then go in and combo him once.

This level is all about Spider agility. You will be climbing a clock tower, all
the
while, the Vulture throwing grenades down at you. He has also planted proximity
mines and spider bombs, which will follow you and then detonate. There are
three
different aggressions factors in this level. You begin the second one when you
see the
cut scene with the Vulture. You begin the third when the music changes. You
will
clearly notice the difference between the three. I won't provide a step-by-step
walkthrough here, as it would be too hard to write down every single level you
climb
up and the bombs are somewhat random anyway. Just some general tips.
Remember Vultures grenades bounce. The spider-bombs are easy to out run by
zipping up. When you cant go up stairs anymore, make sure to look around for an
opening in the middle of the tower. That's about all I can provide you with.
Getting
as perfect and a time bonus will be challenging, but it's in your hands this
time.
There aren't any specific tips I can give for either. Also, make sure to
collect the
Gravity Slam (B,B,A) combo. Good luck.

Vulture Proximity
This is the first of the air chase levels. It is pretty easy too. You'll chase
Vulture
through the city, with him lobbing razor feathers at you and big bomb things
occasionally. With the feathers, just break your line for a sec. With the big
bomb…well. The same thing. But he will use it sometimes when you are close to
him, which is very hard to avoid. Note that you can't hurt Vulture in this
level. Also
note, when he shoots the billboard and the water tank, you don't have a choice
to
chase him or fix the things; you have to or the mission will end. To fix them,
simply
set down next to them and spray your webbing just as you would to tie up a
thug.
Getting a perfect and time on this level will probably come at the same time
that you
get the Vulture proximity bonus. For those who don't have common sense, chasing
right behind Vulture is not the best route. He follows the same path every
time.
Learn it, and then cut him off at buildings. Just learn the path young one, and
you
will have all the bonuses here in no time.

multiple times. In the air, you have several choices of attack. But what would

course. Just jump on Vulture while he is in the air and begin punching him
until he
flies off to the building. Land on the building and wail on him. You only have
time
for a few combos before he takes off again, and when he does, it will hurt you
if
you're in close range to him, so back off after a few. Also note that,
occasionally,
while he is in the air and you attempt to jump on him, he will shoot a big bomb
up at
you. I haven't found a way around it, but he doesn't seem to use it often. If

Teaming up with Scorpion? Sweet! Too bad he looks the way he does. But that's

First things first, let's get the secret. Head for the second level of the
parking lot and
enter the pathway leading up to the third level. Simply collect the red spider
icon
here to get the secret. You will have to get hit once before you can collect it

course.
Other than that, getting the other bonuses is a breeze. You will be fighting

No Pickups Used
Style
Well, it's time to fight the lunatic. Fun, fun, fun. First thing you need to do
in this
level is collect the obviously placed combos, Tackle (X,A,A). After that, it's
time to
face Scorpion.
BOSS FIGHT: Scorpion
While on the ground, Scorpion will shoot lasers out of his tail at you. These
are fast
and he can hit you while you are comboing him. He will also take a tail swipe
occasionally. He has a devastating whirlwind slash as well. And he has an easy
to
avoid tackle. With so many ground moves, you'll want to fight unfair. You don't
have to fight like a man because remember, you are a Spider-Man.
Take to the air, swinging, and shooting impact webbing as much as you can. Once
you run out, you'll want to start with the fair fighting. The key times to hit
him are
when he has missed a tackle or the whirlwind slash. The tackle is easily dodged
or
jumped over and the slash is harder to see coming, but still possible to dodge.
Whenever he does these, use a combo that jumps away, like the Handspring or the
Dive-Bomb. For some reason, these moves seem to really hurt him.
You'll want to try for the no pickups used bonus the first time you fight him,
but if
you can't get it, that's okay. There are 4 health pickups (2 in the main room
and 2 in
a hallway) so he shouldn't be too much of a problem. After beating him,
Scorpion
runs off, presumably to uncover the secret shadow government who has been
putting the little people in his milk to spy on him.

This is a semi-boss fight, but I'm not going to count it as one since the level
has lots
of other elements. Your first objective is to save MJ. She's really in no
immediate
danger of dying. That blimp is going slooooow. Just watch that once you pick
her
up, Goblin doesn't shoot you to death. This rarely happens as he isn't as
aggressive
in this level as others, but it's a possibility. Once you've safely deposited
Mary Jane,
begin battling Goblin.
Really, I think all attacks work well on Goblin. The swinging kick is the
hardest to
connect with, and it does about the same damage as any other move. Goblin's
attacks are many. He has all kinds of different pumpkin bombs he will against
you
depending on where you are. The nastiest one is when you are chasing him and he
throws one that splits into multi bombs. Even still, that doesn't do much. When
he
zooms ahead and doubles back towards you, he is coming to shoot you with his
machine guns, so watch out.
My favorite attack to use is jumping on him and wailing away. He is harder to
jump
onto than Vulture, but if you watch his patterns, you'll get him. Also take
note, he
throws you off and it does damage, so if you are trying to go for the perfect
bonus,
don't jump on him (unless you jump off quickly). Whatever you do to hurt him,
do
it until he runs away, then give chase. Note that you can't hurt him while he
is
running away.
When he tries to knock down the radio tower, just go web up all 4 ends of it.
He will
attack you while you do it, so be careful. After he does that, fight him some
more,
and then give chase when he runs off again. When you are chasing him this time,
he
will plant air mines, so stay above him and they won't affect you. When you
reach
the bridge, web it up, fight some more, give chase and fight some more. After
that,
this level is over.
Getting a perfect on this level won't be easy at all. But getting a time
couldn't be any
more straightforward. You just do it as fast as you can. Well, that's the same
with
all time bonuses, but this one is kinda on rails more than most stages. Good
luck
with that perfect, because I know I haven't got it. If anyone has a strategy to

Ride Goblin
Style
BOSS FIGHT: Green Goblin
Okay, this time, I'll count it as a boss fight, since it's focused on just the
Goblin. In
the air, he is the same as last time. If you want that "Ride Goblin" bonus (I
won't
even go there…) you will have to jump on him at last once. Go on and try it. I
use it
as my exclusive means of attack in this level. But once again, use whatever
attack
you like best.
When he lands, follow him into the building. He is much tougher on the ground
than
he is in the air, believe me. He still has all of his pumpkin throwing
abilities and he
has some really kick butt moves to take you down with. First thing in the
building,
collect the in-plain-sight Flip Mule (X,X,A) combo. Now, get ready to
rumbleeeeeeee. No longer can you use a cheap swing by and punch. He'll catch
you
in mid-air and ground you. First things first, use up all your impact webbing.
Don't
be ashamed. Goblin is tough. Once you run out, your only chance is to dodge
his
combos and then nail him with one of your own. This is easier said than done
though. He has a high roundhouse, low sweep combo that is quick and mean and
that grabby move he uses to pull your butt out of the air. He also has a mean
punch
combo. The best part about these combos is that you can roll out of any of them
at
any time (except grabby) and nail him with your own. But you will still take
hits.
And if you aren't used to dodging, you have to learn it here. And also, he will
stop
his own combo if you dodge it sometimes. It's hard to find a good time to nail
him. If
he keeps stopping his combos when you roll out and hit him, then wait for him
to do
grabby move and he will be wide open. Also, if you're thinking about using the
web
dome to blow him down, it will work sometimes, but he can use grabby to get you
right through the dome.
After enough hits, he takes back to the air. Go get him and ground him again.
This
time, the fight will take place on an electrified floor. Here, it is just
easier to collect a
refill on your webbing and shoot impact webbing. It will only take a couple
shots to
take him down.
Getting a time bonus here isn't too hard. But that perfect again… that's a
killer.
Again, if anyone has a good strategy to get a perfect in this level,
CONTRIBUTE.

Oh my. I hate this level. Hate it, hate it, and hate it. On easy mode, it's
laughable.
On normal, it's no challenge. On hero, it's unbelievably hard. It all comes
down to
luck in the end, though there is some skill involved.
You'll want to begin by web slinging straight ahead. As you are jumping in to
the
first bomb, impact web the light mech. Remember, these mechs can shred you in
seconds. There is another light mech patrolling here, but if you land just
right, he
won't notice you. After disarming the bomb, head to the left of the large
building
with the bomb in between it to avoid more light mechs. Disarm the bomb in the
middle of the building. Now, if you did this fast, the helicopter won't come at
all. If
not, it will be there. If it is, just rise up above it. Try and shoot the light
mech on
your way with impact webbing, but don't waste too much on it. At the next bomb,
try and shoot the light mech patrolling it before landing and disarming it.
Now, go straight ahead towards the next bomb, above the spotlight on the side
of the
building. As you are moving past the next few building be careful, because a
roving
helicopter will have a searchlight moving around. Go to the next bomb, avoiding
the
spotlights around it and shooting the light mech patrolling the sky. Now, pick
up the
pace and head for the next bomb. You will have to go either under or above the
spotlight ahead, depending on where you are. Either way, try and shoot both
patrolling light mechs before you land, but don't waste time doing it. That's
something you can't spare. It's almost impossible to get both, but hopefully
you do.
Start to go towards the next bomb. Cut in between the buildings, even though
there
is a light mech there. You don't have time to go around the end building. Don't
try
and take out anymore light mechs, there is no time. You just have to hope they
don't
shred your ass here.
After deactivating it, move on to the next bomb. Avoid the spotlights down this
last
stretch. It's tough. And there are light mechs. Just hope you make it.
If you can do this, you can get the time bonus. The perfect bonus? Hah! You
expect
me to play that again?? No way. In Spider-Man's words, "I'm gonna have some
nasty words for the guy who made this level. But first, I'm gonna go somewhere
quiet and have a heart attack". Well, that's not exactly what he said.

Style
This level is so pathetically easy that I just don't get it. The only thing
that might be
even a little challenging is getting the remaining health and pickups used
bonuses at
the same time, but even then, you can just do it twice and it'd take less than
five
minutes. Just stay in the air the whole level. Use the homing punch on the r-
bats.
And if you're going for the r-bats destroyed bonus, you will have to kill some
extra
ones. Overall, you shouldn't have any problems with this level whatsoever.

Stealth Bonus
The stealth bonus isn't as hard to get here as people think. Just remember this
one
key thing. You can tie up guards with webbing and as long as they don't see
you,
they won't sound the alarm when they break out. But if they do see you, even
tied
up in webbing, they will sound the alarm when they break out. Keeping that in
mind, let's go.
In the first area run forward into the second shadow area, cling to the ceiling
and
wait for the guard to walk behind you. When he does, wait until he is just past
the
third shadow area and zip over there. Now, when he walks behind you, tie him up
in
your webbing and move into the next room.
Make sure not to get caught in the camera here. Move into the next room. Climb
straight up the wall in front of you and go into the door in front of you.
Spider-Man
talks about a puzzle you have to solve. Good thing Harry is the son of the guys
company he is breaking into huh? Anyway, zip straight up from where you are
currently at. Tie up the guard when you can and get behind him, into a
different
shadow area. Once on this ceiling, wait till he turns his back again, then
again tie
him up and grab the High Stomp (X,B,A,) combo icon. Get back on the ceiling and
wait until he passes under you again so that you can move forward in the room
(not
forgetting to tie him up of course). You'll see an active computer in the far
left
corner. You want to activate it to get part of the code.
From here, zip up and over to the top of the hall at the stairs, being careful
not to be
seen by the patrolling guards and tying them up/avoiding them. Go up the stairs
in
the middle of this hallway, through the door. Be careful not to set off the
light or
alert the guard to your presence and get two more pieces to the puzzle in this
room.
Exit through the door next to the light in the corner. Jump down these stairs
and
enter the next room, again getting two pieces and again being careful not to be
caught. Then, zip back up the hallway you were previously in. Enter the door
across
from the stairway you previously entered.
The puzzle is pretty simple. Start with the mostly blue piece. Then the half
blue, half
purple piece. Then the half purple, half pink piece. Then the half pink, part
orange.
And then the last one. Basically, just make them go from one color to another.
This
level is over.
Getting perfect here is the same as getting stealth. If you weren't discovered,
you
should have no reason to not have a perfect. Getting time means you're going to
have to forget all about stealth. Just watch out for those blasted robots. I
haven't
discovered the secret in this level yet, so if you have, please CONTRIBUTE.

In this level, you can be stealthy, but it won't get you a bonus, so it's not
of much
use. Outrunning the robots really isn't that hard anyway. But if you want that
ever-
elusive perfect, you'll have to be stealthier than a stealthy stealth. Getting
a time
means that you can just run through the level like a mad man. Hey look, I'm
being
original. I put that stuff at the beginning instead of the end this time. Whee?
Anyway, go out in the hallway. There are two guards patrolling, both easy to
pass
by without being seen. Just use the same shadow, tie up and ceiling routine as
last
round. As a bonus, in this level, the guards can't see you on the ceiling
whether you
are in shadows or not. Move into the next room you stealthy person, you. Watch
out
for those laser beams. They'll alert the robots. To get by them, use look
around
mode and zip at just the right time. Now, get on the ceiling quick. Roving
lights
might spot you. From here, get into look around mode and create a zip right
between all of these stinking lasers to the other side. Make sure it doesn't go
through
one though. Get the Palm (B,X,A) combo on the ceiling and get on then turn
around.
Stay on the ceiling. You'll notice a guard patrolling below. Simplton. Head to
the
end of the hall he is patrolling and tie him up when he isn't looking. Go into
this
room, which should be marked by an "A".
The doc makes this all sound harder than it is. Just hit the switch in room A,
then B.
Then go into the rooms between them. Then hit the switch labeled A/B. Easy
enough
right? Right. So get to it. You have to hit them in order though. Remember
that. It's
important.
Done yet? Good, let's move on. Now, head to the door where it previously told
you
to go to control rooms A and B first. You can enter now. In here, you'll find a
weird
grid type thing. It's not as daunting as it looks. Just jump one top of one of
the black
boxes with the green things inside. Make a zip line to the things just like the
one you
are standing on across the room. Try and time it so that you don't fly through
the
cameras. Anyway, continue on. You will enter a room with a wildly changing grid
of
lasers. Watch the pattern very carefully because this one is hard to explain.
Once
you pass it, head into the hallway ahead and enter the lone door on the right
side.
Grab the Head Hammer (B,A,B) combo inside, then exit and enter the "C" door.
Activate the switch. Try and enter the "D" door now. You'll find it is locked,
but the
weenie with the card key is on his way to you. Stick up to the ceiling. When he
gets
there, web him so he can't run and clock him out with a single punch. Grab his
keycard and then enter the "D" door. Activate the switch and then return to the
room where you activated the "A/B" switch. Activate the "C/D" switch and exit
this
level.

BOSS FIGHT: Ultimate Weapon
This guy can be either really tough, or really easy, depending on how you
handle
him. He is entirely motionless as long as you stay close enough to him. But he
has
missile turrets on his back and they don't like you. He also has these laser
beam
shooters that home in on you. And to top it off, there are light mechs hovering
around him like that's their mommy. And if you stray too far from him, you will
wake him up… he has a huge laser that can destroy you in seconds. So how will
you
deactivate those generators on the far side without waking big boy up? Easy
enough.
Impact webbing. If you swing out at just the right length, you won't go too far
away
from him and you will still hit the generators with your impact webbing. This
just
leaves the generators on his back and underneath him. You might get ripped by
lasers and missiles while you do this, but thankfully there are loads of health
power
ups scattered about the arena.
Once the generators are down, simply land on his "neck" and begin punching and
kicking. This sucker's going down.
Getting a perfect seems like impossibility to me, but the time thing is
manageable,
even using this little trick. If anyone has gotten a perfect and would like to
share
how, please CONTRIBUTE.

Supersoldiers Killed
Style
This level is quick and easy. But I still haven't figured out quite how to get
a perfect.
And no matter how many supersoldiers I destroy, I never get the bonus. So
anyone
who can help out with these matters, please CONTRIBUTE. You begin in the
hallway you left "Breaking and Entering" in. Head straight ahead and grab the
Haymaker (X,A,B) combo, then head all the way to the right of the hallway and
follow it into a room. Press the switch in here to deactivate the machine gun
turrets.
Now, head the opposite way, all the way to the left of the hallway into a room.
Press
the switch here to deactivate the laser room switch. Now, go down in the room
where all that was deactivated.
Press the switch on the far right corner of the wall, and then enter the door
directly
across from it. Jump down the stairs and enter the next set of doors. Press the
switch to open the gate. It will take a while to open, so kill the
supersoldier, or wait
around and dodge it. Once it is open, just swing to freedom down this hallway.
Swing, swing I said! Swing!

This level is very reminiscent of the level you chase Vulture in, but the
Goblin is
much faster than that crusty old geezer. Again, the trick is in cutting him off
and
knowing his route. (Which will always stay the same). The game defaults to
lock-on
mode, and you might want to keep it for a run to find out his pattern, but
after that,
don't use it. It hinders your movement when trying to cut Goblin off. Since the
only
bonus here is perfect, that isn't too important, or at least you think. If you
follow
him directly, you will be nailed by one of his air mines. He uses loads of them
this
time. So find a different way, but still staying close enough so that he
doesn't fly off
with MJ. Remember again, knowing his path is the key. Also remember that he is
much faster than Vulture. Happy hunting!

FINAL BOSS FIGHT: Green Goblin
Since there aren't any bonuses here, this level just comes down to beating it.
Right
away, you'll have to save MJ before the fire on the bridge gets to where she
is. This
isn't too tough, but while you are attempting it, the Goblin will be shooting
at you
and lobbing bombs your way. Any of this stray fire can kill Mary Jane. So work
quickly, and if it takes a couple tries, don't be frustrated… it took me a
couple as
well. Once she is safe and sound (read: out of your freaking way) you can deal
with
the Goblin.
In the air, he is a little tougher than he was back at "The Offer" but not by
much.
On the ground, he can be a real pain. He'll do that pouncing move over and
over.
There is an easier solution though. If you've mastered the skill to "Ride
Goblin", use
it to the max here. Eventually, he will start throwing you off of the glider
before you
can even land a single punch, but you will have take a good portion of life off
of his
life bar by then. You won't have even nicked his blue bar, but that's not what
counts. As soon as you've got him down to the point where he is just throwing
you,
use punches and swinging kicks or impact webbing to lower his blue life bar and
ground him. He should have very little health left. Go ahead and use cheap
tactics,
as payback for "Race Against Time". Swing by him and hit him with some impact
webbing. Keep in mind though, that even though he is not on his glider, it will
attack
you. It isn't too much of a threat. And if you're really frustrated, get up in
his face
and lay it on him the old fashioned way. But note, that he will pounce on you a
lot so
be ready by rolling away or swinging away.
Once he is beaten, enjoy the ending.

This is where I list the resources I used for creating this guide, what I
reference, etc.
It will be a rather simple list, as at the time of this writing, I still need
to write the
actual Walkthrough. Yikes!
-Game FAQS and their beginner's guide for writing an FAQ, which pointed me to…
-Kao Megura whose awesome Final Fantasy VII Changes FAQ I borrowed a few
elements from.
-The instruction manual for Spider-Man, which I yanked the storyline and
controls
sections word for word from.
-My brain.
That's all… for now.

Hello folks reading this. First, thank you for reading my guide and I hope it
helps
you and is useful. This is the first FAQ I have written. I've been meaning to
for a
while, but I kept pushing it off. However, I got Spider-Man very soon after it
came
out and beat it quickly. I decided to do a FAQ for this because;
I found a neato glitch.
There weren't any other FAQs for it. (At the time I began writing anyway.)
It's a good game to begin with for a beginning FAQ author. Not too
overwhelming.
On the more personal side of things, I'm a male and my name is Adam Weese. I'm
17, from the great (?) state of Texas. I frequent the Game FAQs message boards
occasionally, under the name "Adam W". I also frequent the Sonic Fan Boardz
(http://pub12.ezboard.com/bsonicfanboardz) and the ODB Forums
(http://pub32.ezboard.com/bodbnext). All right, enough shameless plugs now. I
own
a PS2 and a GameCube. I have been gaming for over 10 years, cutting my teeth on
the NES and really sinking in with the Genesis. I've currently got a job where
I get
to keep most of my money, so I am usually up with the latest games now. I don't
have a favorite type of game really; I like almost everything.
Anyway, that's enough babbling from me. I sincerely thank anyone who read this
guide and really hope you got some use out of it. I enjoyed writing it
therefore I
hope everyone enjoyed reading it. And if you actually read the About The Author
section, give yourself an extra cookie.

So, it's finally over. Phew! That was quite a ride. At the time of this
writing, a
Spider-Man sequel is already rumored to be in the works, so let's hope we hear
more about that at E3.
My future plans, FAQ-wise are unknown. I doubt I'll ever do something as
daunting
as a Final Fantasy, but I'd like to maybe. So my next game, I dunno what it
will be.
Anyway, again, thanks for reading this. Peace everyone.
