* MasterOfTheLevitatingBlade: This game’s take on the Vulture shows him as this. His wings are actually comprised of "feathers" that are large blades he magnetically controls and occasionally launches at you.

* AdaptationalBadass: This incarnation of Spider-Man is probably ''the'' strongest incarnation of him of all time. He defeats Venom handily three times, outmatched Moon Knight and Wolverine, and saved all of New York with little to no help (depending on player choice). Comicbook Spidey could barely win against any one of these guys in a head-on fight, and has been defeated outright by all three of them. He's also strong enough to tank incredibly long falls, survive a car exploding in his face with no problem, rip huge chunks of concrete from the ground, and easily toss cars as if he was the Hulk. And most of this is '''without''' the enhancements he gets from the Symbiote suit.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Played with ''and'' addressed by Spider-Man, stating that Venom is acting nothing like himself and is disregarding the very innocents he swore to protect. However, Venom in this case was ''really'' DrunkWithPower, and he undergoes a HeelRealization at the end. The [=PS2=] version however, plays this as straight as a line, featuring most likely the most evil incarnation of Venom to date in any media.

* AWinnerIsYou: In the [=PS2=] version, once you beat the final boss, all you get is a pop up saying verbatim: "Congratulations! You saved the city.", or if you're on the evil route: "Congratulations! You have chosen to enslave Manhattan.", before going back to the main menu. You don't even get an image for your efforts regardless of which suit path you take.

* Foreshadowing: In two missions, you protect / attack a gang leader in order to convince / force him to consider an end to the gang war. In both areas, you can find graffiti tributes to two important gang members who were killed. Both gangs believe the other to be responsible for their deaths and want to take revenge on the other because of it. The game only draws attention to one of these graffitis, with a conversation about that very topic taking place in front of it, while the other mission oddly enough lacks any cutscene at the end, making it easy to miss the second graffiti. But the fact that both gangs lost someone in similar ways at around the same is explained shortly afterwards - neither gang is responsible for starting the war.

* TruerToTheText: This game's portrayal of ''ComicBook/MaryJaneWatson'' is far more faithful and accurate to the 616 version than any game, cartoon, or movie that came out before it. She's a feisty girl who loves Peter and Spider-Man, dislikes the Venom suit and insists that Peter not use it, uses shotguns and weapons to defend herself and has a witty and snarky sense of humor. Likewise, just like the comics, for all her worries about Peter risking his life as Spider-Man she loves it when he takes her web-swinging.

* RoleReprisal: Like everything else, there's Creator/SteveBlum as Wolverine. Additionally, Creator/TriciaHelfer reprised her role from ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'' role as Black Cat.

* ShownTheirWork: On the mythos.
** In a fight with Wolverine, he asks you questions about whether or not you're the real Spider Man; unfortunately, these questions are so obscure that even hardened fans of the mythos may get them wrong. Depending on your opinion, [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools showing their work may have been a bad thing in this case]]. This is Lampshaded partially by Spidey mid fight - After one question, he'll note the answer isn't in his Wiki/{{wiki|pedia}} article. At the time of release, ''it wasn't''.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Amazing Allies (PS2 and PSP)Edition version of Eddie Brock aka Venom is Far Worse than his Comic Book, his Cartoon or his Movie canon Counterpart.

* BishonenLine: Black Cat, when first infected by a symbiote, looks frightening in appearance and power, but does not have control. When Spider-Man infects her with his own symbiote, Black Cat retains her human appearance, and gains a {{Stripperiffic}} costume even more revealing than the costume before and has complete control of her symbiote.
