Look at this interesting article about how Ultimate Spider-Man 2 may or may not have been cancelled of even made.

If anyone played the first game then you would know that it was pretty sweet and a good follow-up to Spider-Man 2. But anyway, this probably happens a lot with video games, but you guys know how I loves my comic book games.

OH HOW I LOVE THEM

Ultimate Spiderman was pretty fun. I new cell shaded sequel would be awesome. Until then, EDF EDF EDF!
Man, thanks for reminding me that Ultimate Spider-Man existed!

I bought the GC and DS versions of the game, a while back for $10 each, and still haven't opened either.

I do love me some Bendis Spider-Man stories though...
USM was pretty fun back when it came out. Still it's hard to play now since the controls feel odd after playing the more recent Spider-man games.
I really liked Ultimate Spider-Man, except for the damn "chase" levels, those were awful. If they make a sequel and get rid of the chasing levels, I would buy it.
Yeah I owned it as well.

They made Peter pretty close to the material, he was a smartass giving a snooty remark every 45 seconds.

It was a blast. and having the double jump saved my ass from certain death at times.

Falling off the daxter building then pressing jump 2 inches from the ground to escape death defied physics, but spidey does that a lot.


But they made Wolverine look like a wuss, Venom kicked his ass the first level you play as him. oh soi!

I would purchase a sequel.
I never played USM, mostly because I thought it was just licensed crap.
I heard this rumored as being in development a long while back, last I heard it was quietly canceled.
I heard good things about this game back when it came out, but I was holding out for the Spider-Man 3 movie game. Stoopid me. That game blew cock.
I'd love a new Ultimate Spider-Man!! Actually, I love any game that uses cel-shaded graphics :P
I wasn't a fan of US-M. I might like it more now, but stepping down from the amazing webswinging of S-M2 was really hard. Maybe I'll pick it up someday along with WoS. In my opinion, Spider-Man 2 perfeced webswinging, because of the speed, the ability to wallrun, and the overall smoothness. All others are just imitating.
@the red pepper
It's definitely NOT licensed crap - give it a shot it's a good game.

@the cleaning guy
Dude - WoS is absolute shit, if you didn't like USM then I highly doubt you will like WoS. Give those cel shadings another try!
@Butmac: Alright, I'll be sure to pick it up if I ever see it used! I know that the voice acting must be better than WoS, and I do like cel shading.
Also, "perfeced" in my earlier comment should be "perfected"
Oh man, I love (most) Spiderman games. Even the DS ones. I hope this is being made, though I won't get my hopes up.
I hope they make it. It was my favorite Spider-man game because it could also let you play as Venom too.
Ultimate Spiderman was awesome, but those challenges to race the Human Torch around the city can eat a dick.
@ Bloodylip: Tell me about it. I actually have a save with all the races completed as soon as they unlock, just so I can replay through the game without going through that nonsense again.
The only thing that kept Ultimate Spider-Man from being as great as Spider-Man 2 was the repetitive nature of the missions. As Spider-Man you either, A) Chase boss down or B) Fight boss. Venom was a little better with the whole "chased by the military" thing, but even that was limited. I would have liked to have seen more elaborate mission structures.

Which brings me to another point - why, oh why, has no open-world superhero game capitalized on feeling like a super-powered being fighting another super-powered being in a city? Often you are sectioned off into a single area and that's it. Ironically the only time it really felt like a game was taking advantage of the environment was the Green Goblin II boss fight in Spider-Man 3 when you play as Peter being chased through the city. You could go anywhere, and fight him from Times Square to the Empire State building.

... too bad the rest of the game was ass.
Thanks for your patience and sorry for the inconvenience!
