- We used to get loads of Spider-Man video games in the 2000's and 2010's. A lot of them they have been mediocre but I never see anyone talk about the ds and psp Spider-Man games. Is it because their bad? Well watch and find out! In this video I'll be covering the ds and psp versions of these games: Spider-Man 2, Ultimate Spider-Man, Spider-Man: Battle for New York, Spider-Man 3, Spider-Man: Friend or Foe, Spider-Man: Web of Shadows, Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions, Spider-Man Edge of Time, The Amazing Spider-Man, and The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
If you played any of these games growing up, let me know what you think of them! :)

What's your favourite Spider-Man game?
The amazing spider man 1&2 because they were the first spider man games I ever played
My favourite Spider-Man game is Spider-Man 2 on PC
I know it is a bad game but it was the first game i've ever played and had good memories with it
Miles Morales
Spider-Man 2
Fun fact spider man edge of time on 3ds was the port of consoles since it’s was a linear game and there wasn’t like a giant open world to explore but mine is ultimate and web of shadows on ds and console
I'm surprised you didn't mention the fact that the psp version of Spider-Man 2 is basically a port of the first movie game with the second movie game's story
also 17:30 Bruce Campbell was the narrator for all 3 movie games on console. i think the only time he wasn't available as narrator was for the psp version of 2 funnily enough
That’s interesting. I didn’t know that
Looks like hes not that old to remember this gem.
is the spiderman 3 psp a port of the famous spiderman 2 from thr ps2?
@@alexriel_ Spider-Man 3 for PSP is a port of the PS2/Wii version of Spider-Man 3. There are 2 different versions of Spider-Man 3: the PS2/Wii/PSP version and the PS3/360/PC version.
17:32 Bruce Campbell was in ALL the Raimi Trilogy games and actually cameoed in all of the movies, he's a Wrestling announcer in the first, a "snooty usher" in the second, and a Maître d' in the third. Him being here isn't surprising in the least all things considered.
That’s super cool! Didn’t know that
And he’s also in the TASM 1 game. The guy in the blimp that makes you do those extreme challenges
@@CamReviews Review all of the SpongeBob Games. I would be interested too hearing what you have to say about them.
Yeah I thought it was a given. That comment he made just seemed really out of touch
@@konradfun what seemed out of touch
Spider-Man 2 and Ultimate on Console were amazing...
Ultimate was amazing on pc too. It's the same version unlike spider man 2.
@@Vadim_Slastihin the pc version of spider-man 2... oh god...
Spiderman 1, Spiderman 3 on PS3 and Amazing Spiderman (the first game) where also great titles as well.
@@tracyclements1467Spider-Man 2 was the best among them
W
I loved shattered dimensions on DS, the challenge sections where my favorites and I really liked how they had the alternate suit sections so I could wear the black suit and play as Peter Parker.
that game is legitimately really good
for a ds game that combat was absolutely fuckin fantastic
I still remember those jackhammer stomp kicks that would extend your air combo if you had opponents on the wall🤣
11:52 That's just how Ultimate Green Goblin is, instead of Norman in a suit he's this beast.
He looks like Fing Fang Foom
@@demosneokleous4877 I also noticed that one, which got me really confused as a kid
@@Grag235yea the ultimate marvel comics were confusing as hell for me considering I was like maybe 3 at the time lmao but once I grew up I was like ah so he’s like a Jekyll and Hyde character
12:49 "High school that feels like a maze" that is the most realistic part of this game
And Im still trying to find the exit
@@armadrilloturk5835 It's all the way to the left like most side scrolling games. You just gotta find a vent shaft and enter into another one on top of the school roof.
I remember trying Spider-man 2 on PSP and realizing how it was basically a remix of the assets of the 2002 movie game but with the addition of Octopus
Also I'd suggest you to take a look at the free roam in the GBA version. It's not great in any mesure but it's quite mind blowing to see them try to use 3D swinging in a GBA game
GBA had some impressive feats when it came to 3D. Duke Nukem Advance was a prime example and one of the best shooters on the console.
Spiderman 2 on PSP has a lot in common with the first movie game on console. It even has the same level complete music
That’s sick!
One thing the PSP version of Friend or Foe has over the console version is that you can play as characters that weren't in the main version like Carnage and Electro (and I think Shocker too but don't quote me on that)
Damn I wish they added shocker too but I believe his move set would’ve been too similar to prowler considering they both attack with double fists pointed at enemies.
But then they literally had New Goblin who was just a reskin of Green, same moves and everything.
You... really missed the mark on the USM portion. Venom can actually feed on *most* enemies, either with the R button or by dragging the enemy to him with the touchscreen. The slowdown is also certainly down to the emulation. Although I personally don't suffer any slowdown despite also currently emulating it. As for the Spider-Man saving people complaint, that was a rather prominent part of Spidey's levels in the console version too. The touch screen for Spidey is also used to swap moves, via tapping the orange comic panel and making a selection from there.
Not to mention Spidey saving people is one of the main themes of his character. He is a super hero after all and superheroes are supposed to rescue people.
I remember the Ultimate Spiderman for the DS being pretty cool. As far as I remember, you can eat enemies as Venom, to refill the health.
Yep you can on the ps2 also
The fact the full console version of Edge of Time was put on a 3ds is witchcraft :)
It was good programming and asset management, something that ism't practiced enough nowadays.
it did come with its downsides though. The majority of the time enemies are at like 5 fps, if not lower. And the combat can be overall a bit ugly due to the performances sometimes.
So I wouldn't call it "witchcraft", but yeah it's pretty awesome. Even moreso when you consider this was published by activision, which means the budget was super low and the game was rushed. Imagine if the devs had more time to perfect it.
I think it would also be important to mention that some of these games were actually ports of the console games OR were heavily inspired by them.
Spider-Man 2 for PSP - a direct sequel to Spider-Man 1 Movie Game, with the mechanics being almost exactly the same as the PS2 version of that game, as well as the Neversoft 2001 PS1 game
Spider-Man 3 for PSP - a port of the PS2/Wii version, with some additional content I think
Spider-Man Web of Shadows for PSP - atcually interesting, because I think that PSP version was the main version and then it was ported to the PS2, while Wii got the full console version
Spider-Man Edge of Time for 3DS - you say you are impressed because it feels like a full console game... well because it IS the full console game. it's the exact same game as on the 360, PS3 and Wii, but with worse graphics. Probably the best handheld Spider-Man game just for that reason, but if you have a PS3 then there's no reason to play this, it's literally the same.
The Amazing Spider-Man for 3DS and Vita - i think this is actually a very interesting case, and IMO the game is also a very good replica of the Arkham games. the Vita version IS the console version but yeah it was plagued with technical issues, overclocking the console helps somewhat, still it's impressive that they squished the full console game onto it. the 3DS version is a faithful recreation on a different engine, with the free-roaming element being cut - i think it's also kinda impressive an almost representative of the main game, but yeah the combat was better in that one. then there's also the Wii version, which was a separate version, which similarly to the 3DS game, had the open world cut, but was made on a different engine.
To be fair, in the Ultimate Comics
All Rhino is is a tiny guy in a Giant Mecha Rhino suit
Ultimate comics Goblin is just a Demon form for Norman
The Context of the Ultimate Continuity is lost on a person who hasn't read those books
I remember playing that Spiderman 3 ds game and found the touch screen combat to be extremely awkward at times. Mainly spamming straight lines and circles was my best method
I hated that game so much. I can’t believe I suffered through that first before trying shattered dimensions. For a ds game, the combat was exceptional. Believe me I never touched Spider-Man 3 ds again 🤣
Giving credit where credit is due, Ultimate Spider-Man did a GREAT job of mimicking the art design of the main versions. It's nearly identical, a great example of demake (at least on an aesthetic level).
And things he didn't even bother to say that made that game good were: Venom can grab almost anything if you use the touchscreen, like you can pick up a car and throw it to enemies with the motion of the pen which felt really good, also you can of course throw enemies and smash them on the floor or ceiling if you moved them quickly. Spiderman has some special skills that you can use as combos and it made the combat have more depth (but the only way to see these skills is tapping the touchscreen but I guess, like with venom, he couldn't use this feature). And one last thing is that multiplayer mode actually lets you play as Carnage or Symbiote spiderman which is pretty neat
@@JustPityHD One thing that gripes me is how he finds Spider-Man saving people in games as an issue. He does know he's playing as a super hero right??
This is top tier content. I got my very first Spider-Man handheld game a couple months back. Edge of Time for 3DS. Looking forward to trying it, just haven't had the chance yet.
Thanks so much:)
Edge of Time 3DS is great! They put the entire home console game on 3DS, which is amazing! IMO it looks better than the Wii version.
The only issue is that the game itself is not the greatest, but the story is excellently written by the original creator of 2099 himself and the voice acting is superb!
I had the ultimate spiderman game and as venom you can manually aim your tentacle at any enemy or any projectile and catch it AND throw it back at them. Also you can pick up cars with your tentacle, missiles , people, and with people you can throw them at other people or objects to make it more fun and easier. I loved that game when I was 10. He is right though it was very hard for it's aimed audience which was kids
Someone probably said this already, but the reason Bruce Campbell narrates spiderman 3 on PSP, and all the raimi games on console, is because he's very close friends with Sam Raimi. They met in highschool and made a bunch of super8 films, before eventually working on the Evil Dead trilogy.
The fact that the GBA version for Ultimate is better than the DS version is wild
That's pretty subjective as I don't really like the GBA version all that much.
I like how half of the games in this video were made by Vicarious Visions, that studio has made tons of handheld spin offs and demakes
I had Spider-Man 2 on DS and it brought back so many memories seeing it. Also insane how they got Edge of Time and the Wii version of TASM to work on the 3DS. I actually knew people who owned both of them, which is how I tried them and even back then it was insane.
I first played Amazing Spiderman on 3DS last year and I agree that it wasn’t great, but I genuinely did enjoy it! I was planning to get to the sequel one day, but it’s a side-scroller?? I didn’t expect that.
Cheers for bringing the Edge of Time to my attention though! Will have to check it out 😃
it was so shocking to me when i downloaded psp version of friend or foe and realised it's a whole new game instead of just being a port of the ps2/pc version
The funny part is that the venom level's in ultimate on console are also very hard. But in a way that make sense. You're playing as a force of nature so the game throws everything's at you
I also like the healt drain thing
like Eddie trying to escape
@@armadrilloturk5835actually it's the symbiote literally eating him alive, so Venom needs to eat other people so he doesn't completely kill Eddie. It's kinda terrifying in a way
@@cryguy0000 oh yeah sorry
I forgot that thing
The PS2 version of Ultimate Spider-Man is legendary
I have way too much info about Ultimate Spiderman living in my head rent free so i thought I'd share a few things. Battle for New York from we understand is a commissioned DS companion title for a scrapped sequel to Ultimate Spiderman. There's some concept art and unfinished scripts you can find online and it had a nearly identical plot to the DS game from what we've seen. The likely scenario is that the game had a cramped, cheap development after the console sequel was canned. Goblin also is an actual mutated monster in the Ultimate universe, but his character model is so low poly that i dont blame you for your confusion 😂 It comes across much clearer in the console and PC port of Ultimate Spider-Man
Prequel actually. Not sequel.
30:08 this is actually a port of the PS3 game
You can look it up and see that the game is nearly the exact same, with graphical differences
It’s honestly such a fun game, I’ve beaten the console version about 5 times now, just because I love it so much
Web of shadows on the ds was one of my favorite games to play and have such good memories of it. I have been trying to find a way to play it again but unfortunately the only way is with a handheld, was hoping i could use an emulator
Desmume is the emulator you are looking for!
As much as I appreciate someone shining a light on these games, it is so frustrating that you never beat or even take the time to learn the mechanics
Green Goblin in Battle for New York looks different because it's based on Ultimate Spider Man comic. Green Goblin there looked kinda like The Abomination
This is a really great channel concept imo, like a lot of channels focus on console games only, but cam dives into the sorta crappy versions that we’re all nostalgic for. Keep it up, good stuff man
Spider-Man 3 , Web of shadows , and Friend or foe on DS were all fun asf to me when I was a kid
Sean Marquette as Ultimate's Peter is seriously the best cssting choice lol
Wonderfully put together video. I was looking for a handheld review video like this for Spidey games and this is a great one.
A note on the performance of Ultimate Spider Man: on ds , it runs at a very smooth 60fps
GOOD TO SEE YOU BACK❤❤❤❤
:))
Great video! I'll definitely check 3DS Edge of Time out. Neversoft's Spider-Man game for PS1 and Dreamcast is my favorite game. I played a PC demo of it as a kid where Spider-Man had the movie skin. Currently emulating it and its a fun game.
Hell yeh homie!
I had Spiderman 2 on the DS as a kid. I'm amazed I finished it multiple times with the iffy combat and the unforgiving checkpoints
Your joking about Bruce Campbell right? If not you do know he's in all 3 Tobi movies and in all 3 movie game's, heck he did a spot in the amazing Spider-Man game as the blimp guy.
Actually you can eat enemies in Ultimate Spiderman DS too with Venom. It's just that you can't do it the same way to do it with civilians, you need to grab them using the touchscreen. Don't know why but it's like that.
Excellent video and much appreciated never knew the 3DS version of Edge of Time is that lit 🔥 definitely playing that for the movie hype 😁
So funny thing, I never played shattered dimensions except the DS version, so this brings back memories
The 3DS version of Edge Of Time is basically the PS3 version squeezed into the 3DS
It’s insane!!
@@CamReviews yeah, it's insane how it worked
Web of Shadows is one of my favorite DS games and Metroidvanias up to date
Now we need one about portable Batman games
Was watching along until I went to subscribe and I noticed you had just under 5000 subs. I assumed you would have had ten times that. Great video, can't wait to watch the rest of your stuff.
shoutout to the GBA port of Spider-Man 2 with 3D free roam web swinging
channel and video got recommended.
great and fun retrospective.
Thank you:)
@@CamReviews went through all of your Lego on handheld videos, definitely subscribed, keep up the amazing work dude
I like how Spiderman 2 on the PSP has the same gameplay as Spider-Man 1 on the GameCube and PS2 ports
Don't forget Xbox.
A few days ago, I remembered I played Ultimate Spider-Man like 6 or 7 years ago on my cousins GBA during thanksgiving back then. I remembered that game so fondly I had to look it up. Long story short, I managed to convince my mom to let me grab a GBA and a copy of Ultimate Spider-Man. The soundtrack was so nostalgic for me and I friggen love the gameplay.
Good to see you back ma man with my suggested idea for a video
Always open to suggestions!
@@CamReviews thanks
In my experience Ultimate Spider-Man is by far the best Spider-Man game on the GBA/DS. They were the most pleasant parts of my videos lol
Its crazy to think that the first 2 MCU Spider-Man villains were in the Toby Maguire Spider-Man 2 game
Greetings to the beautiful Cyprus! Χαιρετισμοί στην όμορφη Κύπρο!
@@Facade953 geia
They’re not the first two but I know what you’re trying to say and yes it is indeed amazing.
wait... were you not aware that you can consume enemies to regain health with Venom in Ultimate Spider-man DS? it doesnt just have to be civilians. and you can grab enemies with guns from across the screen with the touch screen and then bring them in for consuming. not to say its especially super fun, but just to point out it wasn't that hard as long as you ate enemies as you went along with venom in his levels
Yeah it was clear he didn't read the instructions you'd get at either side of the screen.
Nice people said that spider man edge of time is the worst game ever made I don't know why. The amazing spider man 3ds was my childhood I played when I was in middle school
I remember having Spider Man Edge of Time on DS, I only brought it like less than 10 years ago second hand..... I still remember nothing from it besides being annoyed at the final boss
It's so weird how the PSP version of Spider-Man 2 plays basically like the console version of Spider-Man 1 and the PSP version of Spider-Man 3 plays like the console version of Spider-Man 2
"Why is bruce narrating this whole game?"
Did this dude not play any of the movie games, including the famous spiderman 2?
In Ultimate Spider-Man you're supposed to eat enemies using the touch screen, and you actually feel pretty strong while doing so.
But of course, since you're pirating this game via emulation, that couldn't become apparent.
Battle for New York does suck tho.
And Edge of Time DS sucks even harder!
I dunno, I get this feeling he didn't put a ton of effort into playing the games
hi, owner of the game on original hardware here
venom eating people sucks on ds too
@cryguy0000 I don't even think he knew anything about the majority of the games
I've played spiderman shattered dimensions and spiderman edge of time (both DS and 3DS) when I was a kid I loved both of them!
fun fact:octavious fusion presentation and the ending cutscenes where from the original ps2 while the others are orignal...
you can tell that the models in these 2 cutscene resemble the actors while the psp not so much.
but hey the psp version got jk simmons voice instad of the orignal ps2....idk why they did'nt use jk voice on jameson
3:42 I don't remember this castle from the movie
Not now babe, Cam Reviews just dropped.
I know my comment womt mean much but straight up dude live this watch it twice keep going brother from one youtuber to another
I had web of shadows on ds, my fav ds game as a kid
What settings did you use when emulating ds games like wed of shadows???
6:08 I don't remember Spider-Man going to Egypt in any if the movies
Based off what I’ve seen in the video. Spider-Man 2 for PSP is literally just Spider-Man 1 but on PSP. The same locations, same boss fights, even same menu. Just changed to be the same story as Spider-Man 2.
I had the DS version of TASM1 and 3DS version of TASM2 and i liked them as a kid. I found them to be fun beat em ups
Yeh it sucks playing these as an adult. You just notice all the flaws
@@CamReviewsunless you actually grew up with them. To this day I still play friend or foe even tho it’s the worst out all of them because childhood.
Hi could you make a video about ben 10 DS and PSP/Wii/PS2/PS3/XBOX360 games?
I really like your channel and I want your review about these games.
(Im gonna put this on your other videos so you would notice)
Your issues with Venom in Ultimate Spider-Man seem to come from the fact that you don't know all of the gameplay mechanics. Maybe playing on an emulator didn't make you realize that you can use the touch screen to grab any enemy and eat them like you do with civilians, so you can always regain your health. You can also throw them against their allies or in the air which kills them instantly
Yes I’ve realised this now. I just don’t have a ds capture card and they’re extremely expensive :(
@@CamReviews Yeah I understand. Emulation seems like the best option since any remotely old game is super expensive nowadays
Can we also talk about his issues of Spider-Man saving people... *in a super hero game??*
I actually thought web of shadows on PSP was really good when I was a kid, replayed it recently and it’s not that bad guys, remember that the PSP was made for dumbed down games, the 3DS was a little more advanced at the time, but don’t knock that one till you try it guys.
ultimate spider-man on pc is my favorite spiderman game, they did it dirty on the ds
"Edge of Time feels like a console game on th 3DS".
It basically is. It's 1:1 the same game from X360/PS3. Also Wii.
Friend or Foe on DS looks like a game that was trying to be something else and they just slapped the Spider-Man license on it
It's funny how you say Edge of Time on 3DS just felt like a console game, cause they somehow DID just straight-up backport the console release to the 3DS. I have no fricking clue how they managed it, but dang it's cool lol.
Also Shattered Dimensions on DS is one of my favorites, great game there. I never knew Web of Shadows on DS was actually by the same studio, I might have to check that out now.
That 3DS version of Edge of Time is actually a straight port of the Wii game, same with the PSP version of Spider-Man 3 being a port of the PS2 version and the Vita version of Amazing Spider Man being a port of the PS3 version (the 3DS version is mostly a port too but lacks the free roam)
as a kid i only had the ds ultimate game, and i think you’re playing venom wrong man, you can shoot a tendril out and drain the life out of people, civilian or enemy. overall idk if it’s nostalgia or not but i kinda like the game idk
Wait hold onn..
Is Battle For New York a Sequel to NDS Ultimate??
I never heard of it!
It's a prequel actually
Great video you should do pirates of the Caribbean games for PSP and ds
I played friend or foe on console when I was a kid. I really liked it. I was a kid though so it was probably the novelty of being able to choose whichever villain I wanted to play as.
Yea watching Spiderman and venom fight together was my main goal. God I miss that game😔
Clicked on this because I remembered a portable Spidey game I had fairly fondly, but didn't remember which one it was.
Thanks to you, I remembered it was Shattered Dimensions on DS. The validation of it being good kinda made my day!
And yes, transporting the tablet between dimensions was annoying. It always took me a small while to do the minigame, but somehow I didn't have as much trouble with it as you did. I think I actually beat the game? It's been a while, so I don't quite remember.
Imma keep it a buck. I had trouble with the final one that transports you to the Super Mysterio dimension
The green goblin in battle for new york is ultimate green goblin
It´s sad to see how The Wii used just the PSP version of some of this games. Edge of Time and The Amazing Spider-man. Now the graphics were a little sharper for EOT but still similar. Luckily Shattred Dimension was just like the other console version with lower graphics but some of them did´t suffer being made for The Wii.
But TASM on Wii is just bad, they did go for only the levels, no free roaming so it´s the minimal of how you can play that game. Oh well.
Griptonite Games was really the GOAT for the DS versions of Web of Shadows and Shattered Dimensions
I like how edge of time I literally the console version of the game but on 3ds
I remembered one time, during one of my replays of the Green Goblin fight in SpiderMan 3 on DS (I think it was him), he just stopped flying and kneeled at the floor. I then got behind him and punched him endlessly, winning easily. I tried for a good while to replicate it, but no dice.
Did you play Edge Of Time on your 3DS or did you emulate it?
i find it hilarious you bring up how the tasm2 3ds game looks like an app because the actual tasm 2 app is honestly pretty fun and imo the best game based off the movie, it was even the first role for the current insomniac va yuri lowenthall lmao
Omg I got hit by a nostalgia bomb when I heard the Spider-Man 2 DS music. I think that was my first ever Spider-Man game.
All the games that you review how do you play them on the original consoles or a emulator
Spiderman 3 on PSP was my childhood
It seems like you may not be aware of this but definitely let me know if you are. The 3DS version of Edge of Time is the exact same game as the Wii version with a very slight graphical downgrade. The Wii version is just the PS3/Xbox 360 game with a significant graphical downgrade. Basically the 3DS version is the full Edge of Time experience. It just doesn’t look as good. Honestly though I would still recommend playing it on PS3/ Xbox 360. It has full camera control and while the facial models don’t look amazing, the environments look great, and the models for masked characters and monsters look incredible and still hold up today. That version of Spider-Man 2099 being what I see when I imagine him. Though Edge of Time is my favorite Spider-Man game under PS4 so playing it a second time is probably more fun for me than it would be for you. I still highly recommend it though. Everything you said looked cool looks a thousand times cooler. And I would LOVE to see you do a full video on Edge of Time.
I actually enjoyed ultimate Spider-Man on GBA and ps2. I didn’t know it was on ds. And edge of time I heard was good but never got to play it. Shattered dimensions is still my favorite but I only got it on pc which can crash at times. But these games are what some of us grew up with🤷♂️ technology came a long way 💯
Edge of time ds had some glaring issues but i still enjoyed it thoroughly, i never got to experiecne the 3ds version but i might get it later
Its just a port of the console game all the way from fighting antivenom at the start to the very end
A very underrated game is Ultimate Spider-man on the GBA. It is essentially just the ds game but it is actually fun. Plays better, combat is better, and venom actually feels strong. It's a shame no one talks about it
Ultimate Spider-Man is based from a famous comic, Ultimate Spider-Man lmao, so that's why the art director is so comic based
I remember playing a spiderman game on my ds, I forgot what it was called but you played as Spider-man, Spider-man 2099, and spiderman noir. I only distinctly remember one boss fight where Spider-man fought some dudes ro"butts", and that some spider-men didnt have the abilities of other, like I think Noir couldnt shoot webs or climb something, and only 2099 could glide. Maybe It was shattered dimensions as I remember looking for a shattered dimensions 2 back when I played that game.
Yes ure right it was shattered dimensions and edge of time can technically be considered a sequel to it.
Robutts - tinkerer boss (Amazing)
Web conduits - gave powers that base spidermen did not have. There was 1 conduit for amazing to glide. 2 conduits for noir to glide and wall crawl. And then the web shooting conduit for 2099 after vulture 2099 boss fight.
