These graphics are CRAZY for PSP

This is literally Spider-Man 1. The music and sound effects are reused

I enjoyed the hell out of the PSP version of Spider-Man 2. Vicarious Visions has an incredibly solid track record with Spider-Man/comic book based/licensed games and this one is no different. I enjoyed that it played basically like an enhanced version of Spider-Man 2002. Graphically it was insane for its time for something on a handheld. My only real negative is that it's pretty short, but it's a good time while it lasts.

ANOTHER Fun Fact: There are E3 videos of Spider-Man 2 for the PSP that showcase a beta version of the game. The HUD was the same as the first game on the PS2 and you could actually SPRINT in that version.

I also grew up with this game, first game I had for my PSP And I also replayed this year and its still really fun to go back to

My god this is by far the one that Tobey's phoning it in the most 😂

Calling the pc version mid is the highest praise I've ever heard for that game

I love this game! The reason the levels are so short is because handheld games were designed to be played in short bursts. The idea is that you'd pick it up, play a level or two, and go on with your day. I always thought it was a nice thing when I was on a car ride to the store, when I rode the bus, or really any time when I was simply needing to kill time outside the house.

Spider-Man 2 both the movie and game makes me so emotional

Man this game and especially it's music, takes me back, the first game I got on psp I got on psp too. It's weird but I really loved the tutorial missions and played them just as much as the actual story. Maybe it was the weird green aesthetic. And the mysterio missions low-key had a strong horror vibe that had a strong effect on me. I'm definitely gonna replay some of the boss missions soon.

That was the game that introduced me to PSP. Me and my parents went for a dinner to a Georgian cuisine restaurant that had a nice terrace in the back. I saw this kid sitting on the stairwell playing on a really strange device (that was 2005 i think?). I stood behind him and my brains were blown away by the visuals. That was it. That was spiderman 2. I asked him, what is this thing and how are you playing games on it. The kid pulled an eject button and it spew out a disc. My face was literally O_O Nothing came close to this moment of being blown away by technology since. I pulled my dad out of the table to show him this thing that this kid was playing Spiderman 2 on. Few months later get a gift for my birthday, the PSP value pack along with the Demo disc. I played that disc into oblivion, watched music videos on it and played included games. And i was also gifted GTA Liberty City Stories. It was great, thats for sure (later to be pivotal in modding my PSP), but i needed Spiderman. More time passes, me and my mum casually go to the electronic store and there it was - Spider Man 2 UMD on the shelf. I asked my mum if we could get it, and she did. This was one of the most memorable days in my life, playing a spiderman on psp for weeks. I can still remember the soundtrack in my head, the beautiful graphics and gameplay were awesome too. Thanks mum. Good times. Fun fact a lot of music in this game was sample based, and the mysterio level is literally the doc level from first Desperados game. Quite a nice revelation i had recently

Toby's delivery in the games is too funny. He must hate video games or something, cause he damn sure doesn't seem to take the job seriously, unlike in the films. He sounds like he's sitting on the floor with his child playing with action figures lol

It’s weird that JK Simmons voiced J Jonah here but not in the console versions

I grew up with the GBA port of Spider-Man 2. It's main menu theme is embedded in my mind and soul. Also, we got to fight the Lizard. You know, like the first trailer teased.

Damn I've never played this game on the PSP before but NGL it looks way more fun on the PSP 😂🕷️🕸️

Wow this looks so much better than on the consoles. PSP is simply a legendary handheld computer. PS2 it looks like a cardboard open box.

It actually does feel like a spiritual successor to the first one which isn't what I can really say for the second one on consoles.

25:31 "circus in town?" Also have you ever done the bonus challenge at the end of the PS2 version where you fight Doc Ock, Shocker, Rhino, and Calypso all at once? It's a really hard fight since Calypso has a broken freezing ability. She was cut from the game, but used as a bonus along with the Lizard's lizardmen since he was also meant to be in the game with Kraven. The story from the Spider-Man 3 game is basically what we would have gotten probably.

My favorite Vulture design is his Marvel Knights look. Making his typical green/white suit black and red actually makes Toombs look like a vulture with his bald pale head. Shame I never played this. I would have enjoyed it. It's a shame level-base structure aren't used more with superhero games. Fun video. I love hearing you talk about comic stuff. And to answer your question about Spidey eating to make webbing, the Spider-Island event had Peter tell Callie Cooper to eat fries regularly since the starch helps make webbing.

I just got this game it’s pretty good just supported you

I played this when I first installed the PSP emulator and enjoyed it. A shame I never got it when I had an actual PSP.

Bro you've just earned a sub, keep up the good content!

Josh Keaton is the voice of Harry Osborn in the raimi Spider-Man games is super cool

I really agree with this -- I remember this game and loved that it used elements of the Spider-Man 1 PS2 game, but was based on the Spider-Man 2 movie.

There is music from the Spider-Man 2 console game included here in the missions, you’ll hear the music from the first game in the cutscenes mostly

How come I never played it and never knew of its existence being a Spider-Man fan and a big lover of the Trilogy! Maaaaaaan!

Used to play this all the time

its like an extended version of spiderman one for ps2 with the way the swigning is and all that

I didn’t actually know this one existed ngl, I would have loved having this as a kid!

Web of Shadows for the PSP is basically that side-scroller beat-em-up you wanted as a whole game during the train level. I would love to see you give it a try!

I have both the PSP and PS2 versions of Spider-Man 2, I love the PSP version, possibly a little more than the PS2 version haha, that's because they essentially copy and pasted the mechanics of the first PS2 Spider-Man game which, for me was my favorite of the two. Now granted, I enjoy Spider-Man 2 on PS2 and think it's great, but I could never control the web-swinging properly lmao.

I remember liking the swinging on ps2 a lot, felt fast and free. this one has the same stiff swinging from the first one

Great video man got a new sub from me

I had a friend who had this version of the game. But for some reason he thought it wasn’t good. I never own it myself, but I can see myself liking it! Literally the first thing I noticed was that it felt more like a natural sequel to the first movie game gameplay wise. And it seemed like a solid game in it’s own right. Of course it got buried because it was all about the console versions for obvious reasons. And apparently a lot of people didn’t have a PSP in general to boot.

I want to play this game again

As someone that still has Spider-man 2 on the gameboy, it's pretty damn good.

Pretty sad that the PSP version had JK Simmons as Jonah but not the console

Anyone else notice the thugs dying sounds are the exact ones from the first spiderman game on console? 👀

Activision could've put Spider-Man 1 on the PSP along with 2. So there would be a portable triple-pack collection.

The cutscenes were the highlight of this game lol

Watching videos about the psp game after playing Spiderman PS4 on my steamdeck

Also wth it looks like the 2002 game, does it play like it too? The swinging and his idle stance are very familiar to me cause I played TF OUTTA that

19:12 you say that while listening to battle music from spider-man 2

"I demand satisfaction!" Now that's a line you can say in the bedroom

Good review, though was this recorded off the PSP or other methods?

20 years on I'm still impressed by the PSP's graphics, yeah even by phone standards it wouldn't be impressive 5 years after this, but tech was progressing so fast going from the GBA to this in a few years was insane. We were still getting 3DS games up until like 6 years ago and even a lot of those weren't as good in terms of graphic and ambition as PSP games from the 2000's. m

if i have to unironically starve myself to wait for you just to release a new video then i will.

Wow, I didn't know their was a Spider-Man 2 for psp. I only know the Spider-Man 3 one only.

I had this back in the day on psp when it came out. I thought it was funny that it looked and sounded a lot like Spiderman 1 but it is called Spider-Man 2. It’s nothing like the console spiderman 2.

thoroughly enjoyed this game on my crappy laptop on a psp emulator

Goated menu

I forgot that Spider-Man 2 PSP existed especially since it does some things better like having mysterio as a boss instead of a gag and unlike Spider-Man PC it's not garbage compared to PS2

It was literally just A b down version of Spider-Man one Lots of the same audio and gameplay all from the first game it’s actually impressive that the format was able to fit the psp

Fun vid, but now I'm getting the spiderman game itch again, gotta bust out one of the games haha

Literally just a psp port of the first movie game

IVE ALWAYS SAID THIS PSP SPIDER-MAN 2 IS UNDERRATED AF I PLAY IT EVERY YEAR JUST FOR FUN SHIT LIT 🔥

it's just like spiderman 1 on ps2

I'd love to see this remastered on modern consoles.

Bro the game boy game was something else

Fyi gba version is a guilty pleasure of mine. It’s good in my eyes

i completely missed the psp except for getting a shot of GTA one time haha i got one a few years back and got a bunch of games Tekken on the psp is amazing and Tony Hawks Underground 2 is like the exact same as on PS2 wtf its that good one of the best handheld consoles ever

1:37 well yeah cause you were playing it on the small ass psp beother 😂 damn I didn't even know this was on psp, I knew it was on gba but damn I didn't know the psp was already out when the movie/console game dropped

Great anaylis

I just realized that the DS version is based on the PSP and not the console. Should have used the ds soundtrack for the psp

Woah, low poly Diego :0

J.Jonah Jameson has white hair because he's shocked to find out all of NYC refuses to listen to his views on Spidey.

Looks like Spider-Man 3 PS2

I played this on an emulator and that shit was buggy as fuck any hard explosions or in the beginning of a level it would lag like crazy and the audio would be really buggy 😂

What about spider man 3 on the psp, was it good?

I cant believe i never knew that this was pretty much Spider-Man 2002 enhanced. Like i actually wanna get a psp and this game just to try it.

Are you not streaming on youtube anymore?

What is that avatar in the beginning of the vid?

Idk why but i really like the pc version of the game

i think this better than spiderman 3 psp

Im thankful it isnt as brutally difficult like the first one lmfao

It was 100% better then the PC version

Are you emulating it?

Wow its just spiderman 1 LOL

Same music, enemy voices, and animation from Spider-Man 1 The Movie on PS2. I never liked this game as a kid because it felt like a cheap cash grab. Especially with the console version being fully open world. How could I want to go back to this? I’m not gonna pretend this game is cool.

This is literally just a spiderman 1 port

lmao it's obviously running on the same engine as the first ps2 game and the ps1 spider-man games

Spider-Man 3 on psp was way better

PSP IS a console.

Spider-Man 2 on PC is way far from mid

IM THE FIRST 1100TH LIKER

No Bruce Campbell? 0/10!

Nah this is just lazy

Commentary is annoying clicked off your video after a couple minutes

This reminds me of SM1 on ps2
