History VideoGame / SpiderMan2EnterElectro

* AndYourRewardIsClothes: All the costumes from the original, plus Alex Ross's famous ideas for the costume from the movies, Spider-[[ComicBook/{{X-Men}} Phoenix]], a version of the ''EarthX'' Venom costume, the black and white Negative Zone costume Spider-Man wore, the nanotech suit from ''SpiderManUnlimited'', and an insulated costume worn to fight Electro once. Most of them, as in the first game, have some sort of power-up to abilities, such as infinite webbing or invulnerability, but this time around you can mix-and-match costumes and power-ups.

--> "I don't need [[{{Batman}} pointy ears and a cape]] to figure out that this is probably another heist."
--> [[{{Die Hard}} "Come out to the coast. Have a few laughs."]]
--> "Just goes to show that [[{{Spaceballs}} Good wins because Evil is dumb.]]"

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Beetle. He appears out after the first fight with Shocker, although his identity isn't revealed until after the first fight with Sandman, and is part of Electro's gang in the following FMV. After that, he plays no further role in the story.

* AdaptationalBadass: In most of the comics, Electro is shown as being too incompetent to take the position of [[BigBad big bad]]. Here, he's much more competent.
** The Shocker is the Marvel Universe's [[JokeCharacter joke character]] for the most part. Here, he's dangerously powerful and fast, pretty much a full on LightningBruiser with ranged attacks too.

* EnergyBeing: [[spoiler:The result of the Bio-Nexus being used by Electro]].

* TooSoon: The game was pulled off American shelves and changed radically after 9/11. Among the changes were some levels being renamed and the final battle moving from the top of the World Trade Center to a nondescript skyscraper somewhere in New York.

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Well, sort of, and directed at Spidey. In one early level, you have to put out a fire by using your web yank on a fire hydrant. It's possible to put Spidey directly in the blast zone and watch him get hurdled by the water blast directly into the burning building. [[CrowningMomentOfFunny It's pretty goddamn funny.]]

Sequel to the PlayStation, {{Nintendo 64}} and [[SegaDreamcast Dreamcast]] ''VideoGame/{{Spider-Man}}'' game, released on the PlayStation in 2001.

This game deals with Electro trying to get his hands on a device that can harness and amplify human bio-electricity. On a normal human, this is pretty powerful, but in the [[ShockAndAwe lightning-powered]] hands of [[PsychoElectro Maxwell Dillon]], it could make him a God.

* TheUnfought: Beetle.
* TheVoiceless: Lizard, in an odd change of his last appearance.

* AdaptationalBadass: In most of the comics, Electro is shown as being too incompetent to take the position of BigBad. Here... he's much more competent.
** The Shocker is the Marvel Universe's JokeCharacter for the most part. Here, he's dangerously powerful and fast, pretty much a full on LightningBruiser... with ranged attacks too.

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: The Lizard in the first Spider-Man game seemed to be fairly sentient, and would tell you how to get to Venom, if only for revenge. The Lizard in this game is far more feral, design-wise and personality-wise, with no intelligence to balance it out.

* LightningCanDoAnything: Electro certainly finds inventive uses for it, including using it to move things around a room and animating a bunch of suits of samurai armour.

* OneWingedAngel: [[spoiler:Hyper Electro]].

* ShoutOut: When Spidey is crawling up the wall in the second-to-last level to catch up with Electro, lightning-caused explosions will burst around him. Among other things, he'll say "EXPLOSIONS! Now in {{Activision}}!", and reference Neversoft and Vicarious Visions.

* DarkerAndEdgier: Compared to the first game. This one opens with Electro killing several scientists on-screen.

** Justified with the Lizard. He would be unbeatable were it not for the fact that the serum used to turn him back into Dr Connors was being produced in the lab where you fight him.

* MostCommonCardGame: Double subverted. In the ending, Hammerhead and Shocker are playing Poker. Hammerhead admits he doesn't know any other card games, and Shocker asks their fellow prisoners (Doc Ock and the other baddies from the first game )if they know how to play Go Fish.

* PsychoElectro: Played pretty much as literally as possible.

* TheVoiceless: Lizard.
