* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: One of the common complains about this game is the obvious lack of Beetle (Abner Jenkins) in the game's actual gameplay despite appearing in the cutscenes retrieving a briefcase from Shocker. His name isn't even included in Character Viewer.

* SequelDifficultySpike: ''Ohh'' yeah. Even the Invincibility effect does not help anymore due to how overpowered it was in the prequel video game. Here, Spider-Man's health bar does not decrease but he can "still get hurt" by mere punches and climbing up the wall during one stage without getting away from Electro's electricity attack will still send Spider-Man falling down from the wall and the player has to start all over again.

** "Wind Tunnel," hands down the hardest non-boss in the game. [[spoiler:Spider-Man must blast away each (explosive) barrel in front of a moving plane with the pilot unconscious in the front seat. Through three rooms. And open the doors to each room. And web up both propellers ''and'' web-yank the plane's tail (depending on the difficulty). And the plane is ''still moving''. Good luck if you have a short supply of webbing!]]

* GuideDangIt: To unlock the Electro-proof costume, you need to [[spoiler: beat Lizard on hard, using only cure darts.]] Didn't know it was even possible? You're not alone.



* ScrappyMechanic: Most comics appear only on certain difficulties. So one has to play through kid mode to 100â„… the game. You can only change difficulty by starting a new game, but doing so resets your mission list, but fortunately keeps other unlockables.



* ThatOneBoss: [[spoiler:Shocker.]] Practically the only way you can defeat him (unless you've been granted invincibility) is to drop one of the above boxes on his head before the fire consumes the place. And he ''doesn't. Stop. Shooting at you.''

** [[spoiler:Sandman.]] He can only be damaged by [[spoiler: spraying him with water and then attacking]]. Not helped by the fact that he can hit you from practically anywhere.
** [[spoiler:Lizard]], but mostly because [[PersonalSpaceInvader he feels like he's attached to Spidey with a short rubber band.]] Even worse so if you're trying to beat him by [[spoiler:only using the serum on hard difficulty to unlock a costume.]]



** Rock of Ages can be this to some. You need to climb a (long) museum exhibit to get to electro, avoiding his attacks. The first attack is horizontal lines of electricity that every now and then pass through easily foreseen burnt sections. The problem is that it might ignore it's pattern to strike you. The second attack, where Electro strikes with lightning from above, is warned by spider-sense, and can be avoided by moving left or right. However, even if the player does move, the strike might hit Spidey anyway. Getting hit by either attack sents you back to the start 95% of the time. There are platforms to stand on, but most of the time Spidey falls over them.

* NightmareFuel: The Lizard. Everything about him. The boss fight with him is like something right out of one of the {{Alien}} movies. The only way to beat him is to mix a serum to weaken him so that your attacks can actually hurt him. While you're making the serum on the computer, you need to lock him out of whichever room you're in. Trouble is, while you're doing this, he's breaking into the room. So you could be unexpectedly taken away from the computer due to him attacking you. You're also not safe on the ceiling, either, because he can stick to it as well. Hell, even the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ic2btBE3PE4 cutscene]] before the fight is scary. But perhaps the worst thing of all is Stan Lee's description for him in the character viewer. He sounds like his normal dynamic self when describing everyone else, but his emotionless rundown of The Lizard is pretty disturbing:
