- Spider-Man The Movie Game was very popular at the time of it's release, but how does it hold up more than 2 decades later? It's a very nostalgic game for me and even playing it all these years later, I have come across new things in the game which I didn’t know about.

One of my first gaming experiences, loved this game growing up
It's so good
@Mosey soon as I heard the clip of a guy saying 'so the freak wants to play' I was transported
@James Ibbetson this game was the first I ever played and like you said those quotes bring me right back
Same. I used play this game before I even knew how to read. I'm 22 years old rn.
I had this game for the game cube, elbow slam was my go to against goblin. The web dome burst would not work against him because he would rip right through it. Hell of a game.
If you liked the PS1 Spidermans, then you really loved this game. As a kid it felt like the same game, but way better graphics. Swinging was similar, you cant swing too low or die. You even had the same abilities like the web shield, web punches. I loved it
That's what it was like for me too. I started with the PS1 game then got the PS2 movie game. I didn't question why it was the same (the swinging, same abilities) but my child self found it easy to pick up and play as I already knew the PS1 game.
That's why I prefer the PS1 games. Since the gameplay doesn't change, PS1's more cartoony graphics have way more personality in my opinion.
the enemy even has a similarity (the one who wield dual gun). And how the spidey can lift and throw object, that's straight from the PS1 game.
and you could learn NEW moves!! my absolute favorite
Yep, Spider-Man PS1 is the goat of Spider-Man games
I'll never forget the woman that lost her purse on a NYC rooftop tour, and playing as Goblin running at super speed was my favorite thing.

I vividly remember being in elementary school and going over to my friend’s house where I saw him playing this game. I was immediately sold and went out and bought an Xbox and this game with the money I had been saving up for years. Around 20 years later now, just hearing the sounds of gameplay and the soundtrack brings me right back. Those were years of happiness I don’t think I’ll ever be able to replicate.
I still to this day save this game in a case, lost my sm2 game so ordered it and play it a couple time on the 360 i have
Finally a reviewer that actually does an in-depth analysis of the game. Usually this game’s swept under the rug as a lazy movie game where you swing on clouds and cant touch the street. But this game has a ton of charm to it with the cheats and endgame content that I feel is so underrated
I watched a video recently that's 90 minutes long about this game. They have another for the Spider-Man 2 game.
Dude always nerdy has a video on this game that's like over an hour long
@@theoriginalshewI bet you referring to always nerdy :-)
Cloud swinging in this game gets unfair criticism. They improved upon the swinging from the previous spider man games where you couldn't even turn or change elevation while swinging.
At that time, spiderman 2's swinging was not even a thing yet.
One of my all-time favourites. Spent hours roaming around the first levels using different cheats like big head/big feet and the midget one. They even added hidden dialogue for Harry as GG in many scenes if you played as him for the main story.
Developers used to be much more creative with keeping kids invested imo.
My childhood. I remember being so scared of the stealth missions
*has vietnam flashbacks of the spider-man 2 psp museum level*
Dudeee me to I hated that mission called breaking & entering lol 😂
Glad i’m not the only one haha! I would have been about 7 when i had this on my gamecube. Genuine adrenaline!
Mee too. The ominous dark spots. Trying not alert the enemies. Then eventually having to fight them.
Back when you had to get cheat codes out of the books at school book fairs Lmao
Even today, the game is still very visually appealing. The cutscenes look good and the gameplay venues are bright and detailed.
The music is also a huge plus. It expands on the great soundtrack from the movie and keeps you feeling heroic.
No it's not this game doesnt hold up qt all but it also came out like 20 years ago

I grew up with this game it is so nostalgic and the PS2 graphics are just so amazing. Spider-Man 1 on PS2 is one of my favorite games ever. It has so much Raimi vibes to it. This gaming era is amazing and entertaining it's like revisiting your entire childhood seeing this. I remember playing this so many times. Great villains, Shocker, Green Goblin, Carjacker (uncle Ben's cold-blooded murderer is Flint Marko), Vulture and Scorpion (and Kraven if you play Xbox). Very captivating entry. And honestly as web swinging goes this one takes the cake it's so fluent, fun and free-roaming. Tobey is the one who get webs in his wrist by DNA after all. Being bit by a spider turned him into something unstoppable.
The stealth mission at Oscorp is terrifying those robots were so vicious and spooky if they catch you. The beautiful music also brought so much life to this title, the funny and lighthearted voice acting but it also has a serious tone in the storytelling. Gameplay is fun. The cinematics are unique. Tobey is the most underappreciated Spider-Man/Peter Parker alive. He's the legendary OG so much ambition and hard work Maguire put in his role. Level designs are good. Puzzles are fun. The thing I didn't like about these newer Spider-Man games is that you swing way too much in the city it gets tedious, annoying and frustrating. While here it's limited and restricted which is such a positive and doesn't take anything away from the experience.
Sigurjon! Haven't seen you in a wafflepwn stream in awhile hope all is well, Also an amazing childhood game beat this many times.
Man that Oscorp mission was legendary…brought back so many memories 😭
These graphics were elite back in the day
I had no idea about the goblin story! I remember using cheats to play as him because I was obsessed with videogame magazines but I never even thought about playing the full game like that. Games these days don't do cool things like that anymore, no secrets and most game devs take things way too seriously instead of giving us fun, even if a bit broken, things to play with.
Great video, keep it up!
Those stealth missions are a bane of my existence as a kid. Though I did beat them eventually when I was 10
Top tier video! I had no idea the bowling minigame even existed. It was a very intricately made game.
It's crazy how much effort went into making a movie game, of all things.
Games like this will never be made again.
Nowadays if you want extra content, you will have to pay for it
Check out the 2008 Wolverine movie game it’s amazing aswell
@@Leo.de99 The x-men 2 wolverine game was the shit.
@@tomsnowden6201xmen legends 2
@@Bee_Mavrick no but that game was fantastic..I was thinking x2 wolverines revenge..If you bought the game you got a ticket to the movie when it came out..Movie was ass (okay for a kid as I was) but the game was awesome. Way better than a movie game had any right to be.
The graphics are kinda not that bad at all after all these years. I love the shadows outside of the pixelated faces.
Instant nostalgia. This game rocks, every part of it is amazing
Masterpiece.
The reason he can swing through the sky is because Uncle Ben is catching his web lines from Heaven.
“Looks like the freak wants to play” classic line 😂
"Whatcha doin' up here, pestle-neck?" was one of my favourites
I remember having this pre-ordered back in 2002 when I was in 8th or 9th grade. This game was lit back in the day. I remember taking this to some friend’s houses and they were blown away by the graphics and combos.
Hearing “Looks like the freak wants to play” hit me so hard.
Ahh yes! The memories. The level with Oscorp gave me anxiety though. The playstation 1 spiderman game has a special place in my heart above all of the other spiderman games.
Superb and engaging analysis video to watch. Looking forward to your Spiderman 2 video game review.
Hearing “looks like the freak wants to play” hit me with a rush of nostalgia
fun fact Harry was voice by Josh Keaton which he took the role of spider-man in spectacular spider-man
Another Fun Fact he was actually originally cast in this game to voice Spider-Man until they decided to use Tobey so they gave him Harry instead
also true
@@NolanWins do you know if they had tobey come in and record it or if it was just audio they already had available to them?
@@JMA_21 Obviously they had Tobey record his lines 🤦♂️
@@NolanWinsAnother Another Fun Fact: Vulture’s VA, Dwight Schultz reprised his role in Spider Man 2018, 16 years after playing the character in this game
Holy shit, I didn't know those minigames and special details existed!
Nostalgia pops up everytime I remember this game :')
Such an underated game. I loved this game growing up. Playing as Greeb Goblin was so cool! Excellent video my dude!
This game and Spider-Man 2 need a remaster
Thanks for putting this together. I still play to this day. It will always be a classic for me.
You unlocked some memories i forgot about it, i use to play this game very often, thanks for the video
I think the graphics in this game looks better than the second movie game.
Fun Fact: Green Goblin wasn't used in the previous ps1 games due to Sony forbidding neversoft from using him because of the upcoming Raimi movie. He was going to be used for the third game as the main antagonist but the success of the Raimi movie got the third planned installment cancelled in favor of a Raimi tie-in game, where assets and animations and story elements from the unreleased third game were used for the first Raimi game. Spidey's attacks are all reused animations from the ps1 games. Also, we were supposed to get Kraven and Vulture in the third game, since they never appeared in the ps1 games yet, but were used instead for the Raimi game (with kraven being exclusive to the Xbox version).
And now Kravenis exclusive to the PS 5 Marvel's Spider-man 2.
Hi love the pace of the editing. The gameplay without any voice and then some explanation. I love it !
Has it already been 21 years? My god.
This was my first console game. SO. MANY. MEMORIES.
Also you forgot to mention the God aweful, vomit inducing camera controls lol.
Fantastic video! definitely do a video on Spider-Man 2!
This was my first GameCube game and it blew my mind, coming from ps1, n64 and Dreamcast the graphics and audio were just crazy to me, and the gameplay was so far beyond the Spider-Man game I owned on Dreamcast.
Great video bro you on your way its gonna happen for you.
Great stuff definitely didn't know a lot of this stuff about the first console game I ever owned, gotta go dig up my PS2 and replay it now 😂
Great video! 😎
Fun Fact: Josh Keaton (spectacular Spider-Man voice actor) voices Harry Osborn in this game
Cool video, now Im sure Im going to finish this game finally
god i loved this game. nice summary/review! i didn’t know about a couple of the cheats
I played this game so much on the original Xbox, and I was able to play the Kraven levels as a result. The fact that Tobey Maguire and Willem Dafoe voice their respective characters, the other villains in the game, memorable quotes and music, the playable Green Goblin, and others give this game so much value. I'll never forget the Oscorp stealth missions scaring the crap out of me the first time I played them. I don't have a problem with them now obviously, and I have even screwed around on said levels.
Also worth mentioning is that there was also a cheat code for Mary Jane Watson, but it was cut from later versions of the game due to the lesbian depiction of the two MJs kissing.
Spider-Man: The Movie Game I will always treasure. It's just a sad reality that it tends to be overshadowed by tons of the more recent Spider-Man games.
this was a great review, keep em coming^^
The swinging wasn't down to technical limitations, it was due to time constraints. Spider-Man 2 had real, physics based swinging on the same consoles as the first game
The second game was an improvement in almost every way. But one thing that I prefer about the first game was the color. The second games color seemed bleak. Compare spider-man’s suits in both games and the first game looks so much more bright. Played the crap out of both as a kid.
Graphics looks way worse in 2nd game 😢
Open world environments come at a cost. Especially when trying to look realistic.
The graphics and controls and you dont die if drop spider-man down technically you collapse the only thing that was better than 2 is the acting from the especially from Tobey Maguire was excellent in the first he really has good delivered jokes for people who complain he doesn't quip but he has great chemistry and great back and fourth with William dafoe who was just as excellent but also sells the quiet and serious moments but in the next game him and Kirsten dunst are bland as hell both of them as they are in the movies they both dont put any pation in their peformances alfred Molina Bruce Campbell and Josh Keaton do great jobs in voice acting in the game
This anime was the best part of growing up in the hood
One of my favorite videogames ever! I played this game till it couldn't load anymore and then I bought it again. I sincerely enjoy today playing this game even more than Spider Man 2 or 3.
Good lord this makes me feel so old. I still have the original game for the PC at my dad's house. Where has the time gone...
I just got hit by a wave of nostalgia with all the thug noises.
I think this and SM2 games is why a lot of people love Tobey, he could be quippy and tell jokes if you let him. He's hilarious in these games.
"Looks like the freak wants to play!"
“What’s with the get-up? Chump!”
This game was outshined by spider-man 2 in being memorable and a classic im glad the game is getting love that it deserves
I absolutely loved this game because you could learn new moves. It was one of my all-time favorite gaming mechanics ever
Ayeeee this vid was nice bro was watching it while eating dinner this game was way cooler than I thought the version I played was the psp version tho
What a genius idea of posting a video of an incredible game ! 👍👍
nice video also
Still have my Xbox copy of the game. I was 8 when it dropped on consoles. I spent a lot of time trying to get Spider-Man on the ground. Then Spider-Man 2 came out and I found out you could land on the street. It blew my mind.
Never stopped playing this since I was in 4th grade, It is so satisfying to play this one too when I got my first gaming set up
The VHS certainly still holds up.
Well, when i was kid, until now.
This game still cool even though the web stickin' in the air.
That combo lists actually the coolest at that time, plus Spider-Man (2000) Neversoft vibes.
Great old days. This game holds a special part in my heart. I still remember going to game stores that had GameCube that had this game as a demo. Eventually got it on the PS2. Wish I could go back ..
I haven’t played this game since like 2006-7 but it was one of my first spider man game I ever played and I always loved using that move at 0:32 I thought it was the coolest thing ever and still do honestly
This was one of my first original Xbox games. I was obsessed with the movie so I couldn't get enough of this game.
Anyone else remember the bowling mini game in this? That was a blast to play
Just subscribed!
I recently played this back in February for the first time with no experience of playing other Spider-Man games (and plan to play the other movie games and Insomniac games for now) and I thought it was a fun time, a nice quick beat ‘em up game with some nice extras that work for a movie tie-in game anyway
My god the mission gave me the most anxiety was breaking entering where you had really use stealth to your advantage in order dodge alarms guards and robots. Made me be so good with alot of stealth games as kid like Socom and James bond games.
Having played all the spider mans except like the last 2 newest ones. This is a real close one to my heart.. I loved the ps1/n64 ones.. but this.. I’ve had endless hours. This one means a whole lot to me, the toys, the movie. 😢 times fly, thanks for the video ❤, I LOVE this game, graphics still hold up too 🔥 I would love to replay this again.
One thing I also loved about this game were all the training levels, big brawl and the bonesaw fight will always hold a place in my heart. Getting caught by the guards in the Oscorp level and hearing the guy despairingly say “we’re doomed!” In the chemical plant level will also never not scare me lmaoo
The graphics of this game were really good for its time. Even better than the 2nd one
"Looks like the freak wants to play" cracks me up 😂
One of the Thugs says in anger: "You're so dead!". Spiderman says, "Tough guy, huh?" Just like the old days, I played the game.
WOW I never knew about all of that extra content!
It’s so amazing how far gaming has come the last few decades. Especially with the Spider-Man games we have now
This was my first PS2 game. It was also my first game I ever beat. It's crazy that it's been that long now.
Great video
Man what an era of video games, there was so much to this game, i loved playing as Goblin thru this game
I remember first playing this at a friend's house on his Xbox when I was 7 then I got it for PS2 shortly afterwards. I'm almost 27 now and I still love this game and the memories I have of playing it
The ps2 was the very first console I've played on. And this is the first spiderman game I've ever played
Still play this game today and it never fails to make me laugh with the way he swings through the air with his webbing attached to nothing.
Had a blast playing this. One of my favorite spiderman games
Absolutely does. You can play as green goblin. I don't even need to watch the video to know the result. The game was way ahead of its time. If it had open world, it would've been legendary
Dude, Goblin was just tossing around MJ
The soundtrack too, I wish I could explain it in full detail, "A Hero's Origin", nostalgic simple fanfare goodness, pierces my soul. Had a blast playing this.
Omg I miss this game so much ❤😊 it was my first game ever on the gamecube. Those were the days. I played it through 2012.
I played this as a kid and I swear this game was solid! I could only get to some of the later levels via cheat codes, some of them I could finish though. A lot of the time I found it easier playing as the Green Goblin
The first game I ever played, and still till this day Breaking and Entering will always do something to me
aww man that vulture mission gives me pstd
was so hard to complete as a kid
The first 3 levels were icing on the cake.
Man I almost forgot thus game, loved playing it as a kid and brings back alot of memories.
This the only spider-man thats fun and still enjoy it today
I agree I recently found out about the exclusive level last year. I was wondering why in Spider-Man 3 he already knew who he was. Now it totally makes sense
I used to love this game back in the day and loved the fact that you could play as green goblin
Im kinda shocked the algorithm showed me a channel this small, especially just as a recommendation under a vid of an entirely unrelated game. So, congrats? I hope your channel gets some gains.
My childhood and one of my favorite Spider-Man games
Honestly yes this game does still hold up I still have memories of this game and remember so many of the missions it was literally unforgettable lmao
14:10 i believe the option was added because they already had voice lines for spiderman done by josh Keaton but then they got to tobey to do the lines and used keatons lines for gobby
The PS game was epic. While younger me wasn’t thinking about “production value,” adult me recognizes how this game had it in spades…. I still remember going through it just to play as the Goblin, something today would have been “paid DLC….”
Oh yes!!! Wow forgot bout that
Only problem is that the swinging always looked silly.
In a world before spiderman 2, it was alright
Ya unlocking the glider and goblin so much fun didn't know u could do that for years
I had a booklet of the movie with this game as a PC demo alongside it. Played the hell out of it as a kid, used to swing around and crawl up random buildings. I don’t think i ever finished a mission. Super fun to me tho lmao
one of my favorite games as a kid, so classic
