When the cops do get involved, they aren't very effective. Pete is more annoyed than relieved when they join the chase for The Lizard and J. Jonah Jameson chastises Spider-Man for the police officers reportedly injured during the chase.

** Peter's swinging is far more acrobatic and flashy than it was in the first game and is comparable to Miles' animations in his solo game, subtly but noticeably showing how they've learned from each other since becoming a duo.

This is '''not''' a good way to transport someone with severe injuries, as the jostling about could easily widen their wounds.

** The tagline itself is of course directly referring to the teamwork of Peter and Miles, but it also alludes to other plot points. The general theme of emotional support groups and the building Spider-Family are most obvious, but symbolically the tagline doesn't appear until the screen has already been consumed by the symbiote, and "Together" has black tentacles on it, foreshadowing that the word can also refer to Venom co-opting its hosts goals for its own ends (like making Peter a better Spider-Man). To cap it off, the symbiote remnant on "Together" is then banished by blue lightning, foreshadowing Miles being the one to save Peter from the symbiote's corruption.

This includes all of Miles's venom powers, some of Peter's spider-arm attacks, and various shared gadgets and throwable objects.

After that, the main thing preventing skill progression is related skills not having been unlocked in the plot yet. NewGamePlus averts this, establishing Ultimate Levels beyond Level 60.
