Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions

Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions is a video game made by Beenox and published by Activision, and is based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man. In the game, a strange artifact called the Tablet of Order and Chaos is broken into 17 pieces scattered across the mainstream Marvel, Marvel Noir, Marvel 2099 and Ultimate Marvel universes, disrupting reality. The Spider-Men of those four universes must solve this problem by finding the pieces of the Tablet that have fallen in their home worlds into the hands of various supervillains who have received a Power Creep, Power Seep from the fragments' mystical nature. The four versions of Spider-Man are as follow:


 * Amazing Spider-Man (which is the version from the regular Marvel Universe)
 * Noir Spider-Man (from Marvel's Noir universe)
 * Spider-Man 2099 (from Marvel 2099, which takes place in 2099)
 * Ultimate Spider-Man (from the Ultimate Marvel universe)

And the villains they must battle are as follow:


 * Amazing: Kraven the Hunter, Sandman, The Juggernaut, and overall Big Bad Mysterio
 * Noir: Hammerhead, Vulture, and the Goblin (alternate Green Goblin)
 * 2099: Hobgoblin, Scorpion, and Doc Ock (female)
 * Ultimate: Electro, Deadpool, and Carnage

The DS version has:


 * Amazing: The Tinkerer, Electro, and overall Big Bad Mysterio
 * Noir: Boomerang and Calypso
 * 2099: Vulture (who, much like Noir's, is also a cannibal) and Silvermane.

The game seems to have a follow-up of sorts, with Spider-Man Edge of Time.

Has a Character Sheet under construction.

"Ultimate Spider-Man: "Is this how my enemies feel when I won't stop talking?""
 * Actor Allusion: Listen carefully to Ultimate Deadpool's fanboys after the first fight with him and you'll realize that one of Deadpool's biggest fans is himself.
 * Adam Westing: Stan Lee narrating the game as Himself. He's basically made a second career for himself out of Adam Westing his corny, over the top personality whenever near a microphone.
 * A Fate Worse Than Death: In the DS Version, Electro is forced to listen to Spider-Man's electric puns from the beginning to the end of their fight. Eventually, Electro begins pleading for Spider-Man to stop.
 * A God Am I: Electro. "I HAVE BECOME A BEING OF PURE ENERGY!"
 * "WITHOUT PANTS!!"
 * Mysterio qualifies too.
 * Also Doc Ock.
 * Alternate Continuity: There's a lot of differences with the source materials the Spider Men are from.
 * Alternate Universe
 * Amazing Technicolor Battlefield
 * And Now for Someone Completely Different: Well, not completely different.
 * And Your Reward Is Clothes: See the Preorder Bonus below.
 * And Zoidberg: You play as three versions of Peter Parker... and Miguel O' Hara.
 * Anticlimax Boss: It's absurdly easy to button mash Electro to death in the DS version without him so much as lifting a finger.
 * Anti-Villain: Kron Stone, aka Scorpion, while he was an unpleasant person before, he just wants to be human again.
 * Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: "Remember viewers, I'm also available for Black Op missions, Assassinations and Birthday parties".
 * Art Shift: Each universe has it's own art style. The Amazing Universe seems like a comic book brought to life, the Noir Universe is grainy like an old film, and sort of has a Batman: Arkham Asylum style, the 2099 Universe looks futuristic and cutting edge, and the Ultimate Universe has the same art style as the Ultimate Spider-Man game.
 * Ascended Fanboy: 2099; expanded upon more in the DS version
 * Ax Crazy: Carnage and Hobgoblin are the most prominent examples.
 * Goblin too. He throws a damn  at someone.
 * No mention of Kraven? While sniping at Spider-Man, he can occasionally miss and shoot one of his own henchmen. That won't stop him from firing again.
 * Badass Boast: It's Spider-Man multiplied by four. It's to be expected.
 * Kraven has one before each of his boss fights.
 * Bad Boss: The Goblin qualifies, but that would be ignoring Hammerhead and the Vulture, the first explicitly stating he has no hope in his henchmen, the second threatening to eat them if they fail to kill Spider Man.
 * Bald of Evil: Ultimate Electro and Noir Vulture.
 * Beard of Evil: Kraven
 * Berserk Button: Never say "meh" when Doc Ock 2099 is talking about her machinery.
 * Beware My Stinger Tail: Scorpion.
 * Big Bad: Mysterio for the game as a whole, but also the Goblin and Doctor Octopus in their respective universes.
 * Bloodless Carnage: Carnage's stage, funnily enough. Justified because he sucked all the blood out of its victims.
 * Bond One-Liner: Noir's "Don't let the bed bugs bite".
 * Book Ends: The game begins and ends with the Amazing Spider Man.
 * Breaking the Fourth Wall: "I'm the Hobgoblin; every Spider-Man needs one!" Then again, the 2099 characters are aware of the Amazing Spider-Man's legacy.
 * Deadpool is the master of this trope. At first, it can be explained by him running a Show Within a Show, except...
 * If you pause the game during either battle with Deadpool, he will start complaining to the player for about 10 minutes until he runs out of lines, after which he'll complain about the lack of pause screen dialogue the developers gave him.
 * When you collect Spider Emblems in his level he says "Some people think you haven't completed the game until you've got all of them. Just sayin'."
 * His pseudo-horse-racing commentary when Spidey is racing the first tidal wave is in-universe, with horse names like Sudden Death and Rising Water. The second one, on the other hand, has Sweaty Controller and Gonna Fail This Level.
 * It's safe to say that Deadpool's stage completely lacks a Fourth Wall
 * One of the loading screen trivia boxes has Deadpool take over, saying he killed the guy writing the trivia.
 * Amazing Spider-Man asks if anyone playing the game wonders how all the power-ups fit in his suit in the DS version.
 * Brick Joke:
 * Brown Bag Mask: Amazing's Bag Man costume.
 * Butt Monkey: Ultimate Spidey. His hazards are Electro (whose powers are his weakness), being fought by a somewhat Genre Savvy nut that just refuses to shut up, and . Then he has to outrun tsunamis and collapsing heli-carriers. And   disses him on his height.
 * Noir as well. He ends up running into a lot of traps. A. LOT. OF. TRAPS.
 * The Cameo: The wall behind Madame Web displays many different iterations of Spider-Man that didn't make it into the game - Amongst them, are Spider Girl, Spider-Ham, The Black Spider-Girl from Old Man Logan and many Spideys from the various What If... issues Marvel have released over the years.
 * Some of the alternate costumes are alternate Spideys too - Namely, Spider-Man 1602, Mangaverse Spider-Man and the Scarlet Spider.
 * Deadpool & Electro make a cameo appearance in Carnage's stage, locked in a cell at the Triskellion.
 * Came Back Wrong: Deadpool's... changed since coming back from the dead.
 * Canon Foreigner: Noir Hammerhead: the game developers thought he'd be a perfect fit for that universe, given his M.O. is emulating 1920s gangsters such as Al Capone. There was also no Hobgoblin equivalent in the Marvel 2099 universe; there was a character merely called Goblin, but he was an analogue to the Green Goblin (Miguel even tells Hobby that he's fought a Goblin before).
 * The DS sees Noir versions of Calypso and Boomerang and a 2099 version of Silvermane (though he's also a bit of a subversion as he turns out to be the original, still alive thanks to being a cyborg).
 * 2099 will also see a female version of Doctor Octopus. Which could mean she's partially inspired by Lady Ock (Doc Ock II in main continuity).
 * Canon Immigrant: Given the 2099 universe in the game is based on the traditional 2099 universe, the idea of Kron Stone being Scorpion from Timestorm 2009-2099 rather than Venom as in the classic 2099 universe could count as this.
 * Lampshaded on a loading screen - It's suggested that they're either the same person, or Kron Stone is just a very common name in the year 2099.
 * Catch Phrase: Hey there, true believers!
 * Excelsior!
 * Charge Attack: There's one for every Spider-Man.
 * Cluster Shock Bomb: In the future, the word shock replaces fuck (just as it did in the comic).
 * Co-Dragons: Scorpion and Hobgoblin 2099 for Doctor Octopus 2099.
 * Combat Tentacles: Ultimate Spidey thanks to the symbiote suit.
 * Doc Ock and Carnage, too.
 * Comes Great Responsibility: With four different Spideys, one of them was bound to mention it. Ultimate Spidey lays it out for a SHIELD scientist while cleaning up the mess they made.
 * Composite Character: Ultimate Deadpool seems to work in a little more of his mainstream counterpart's characterization in the game than he does in the comics.
 * Continuity Nod: Ultimate Deadpool references the time when Ultimate Spider-Man switched minds with Ultimate Wolverine.
 * He also makes reference to Ultimate Spidey's relationship with Kitty Pride & the love triangle with Mary Jane. In the final boss fight of the level, he actually asks Spidey where he thinks the game fits into continuity.
 * 2099 mentions Flipside during Hobgoblin's stage.
 * Creative Closing Credits: Indeed.
 * Crosshair Aware: Played With in Kraven's stage. You see the crosshair 'cause you're looking through Kraven's eyes.
 * Cross Through: The Spider-Men do not interact with each other until the very end nor do elements of their worlds ever bleed into others' (barring the Wolverine Publicity below) but the four share the same universe-spanning goal of collecting the Tablet fragments, effectively fitting this game as a Cross Through.
 * Crouching Moron, Not-So-Hidden Maniac: Deadpool
 * Cursed with Awesome: Noir. His abilities are referred to as the "Curse of Power".
 * Cyberpunk: 2099
 * Dangerously Genre Savvy: Deadpool always keeps around extra cameras, and at least once in the stage, went for the unconventional approach and whacked Spider Man over the head, leaving him unconscious. He also keeps around a lot of fire, likely due to the fact that's a big weakness for the black suit.
 * Hammerhead knows that Spidey Noir's weakness is to be exposed on light. So, what does he do? He fights with a mounted mini-gun and lots and lots of lamps and lights to expose the poor webslinger.
 * Darker and Edgier: Everything in Noir.
 * Deadpan Snarker: Wouldn't be a Spider-Man game without one. This game brings FOUR.
 * "Wait a minute, this quest involves JUMPING?"
 * Madame Web as well. Unsurprising considering that she has to communicate with the four Spideys.
 * And, of course, Deadpool.

"Deadpool: Hey Spidey! Can I call you Spidey? Thanks for being part of our "webisode". See, cause you shoot the web!"
 * Deus Ex Machina: Juggernaut is able to be defeated by Spider-Man because
 * The Dev Team Thinks of Everything: Attempting to sequence break in the final battle with  (mainly by going up to him himself) will result in him damaging you.
 * Difficulty Spike: The DS game gives you a few weak enemies and a faux-boss fight against Mysterio. Your next fight is against Boomerang, who is impervious to all direct damage and can only be injured if you grab his boomerang and hurl it back at him. Granted, it's easy once you know what you're doing, but his speed makes it a very difficult fight.
 * Dirty Coward: Hammerhead, when he tells Spider Man he gives up, he freaking headbutts him. He's also prone to using long-range attacks, rather than close combat.
 * Dishing Out Dirt: Sandman
 * Does This Remind You of Anything?: "Thanks for the enhanced webbing; it normally just splatters everywhere."
 * "I'm not used to this much excitement!"
 * "As if things weren't sticky enough!"
 * 2099: (holding Doc Ock who moans then passes out) "Yeah, I am amazing."
 * A few of Goblin's lines in his punch-out segment. "Harder, harder!" "Not so fast!"
 * "Keep riding me and you'll have to pay the fare!"
 * "I guess he couldn't take what I was dishing out."
 * Do Not Adjust Your Set: Done by Deadpool in his chapter.
 * Don't Explain The Joke:

"Spidey: "I KNEW this suit was a bad idea!""
 * Spidey does this quite a bit in Electro's stage.
 * Doppelganger Spin:
 * Downloadable Content: The four Cosmic Spider-Man costumes.
 * Drunk with Power: More like Stoned.
 * Literally with Electro
 * Dummied Out: What do you mean Ultimate isn't in the DS version!?
 * And theeeeeere goes the Manga costume...
 * The villains to a lesser extent. None of the villains in the console versions appear in the DS version except Mysterio, Electro and Vulture. Even then the latter two are alternate universe counterparts.
 * Face Palm: Ultimate Spider-Man's symbiote suit has only one weakness: electricity. And who is the first villain he fights? Electro, Master of Electricity. Nice job, MW.
 * Not that she had any way of knowing that Electro would get a fragment, but still...
 * The irony? One of the alternative costumes is a Electro-proof suit. The description notes that Ultimate Spidey really wishes that Madame Web had told him about it earlier. Not that it has any effect in Electro's stage, but still.
 * Then there's the fact that.

"Deadpool: Go get him, Beauregard! Spidey: Beauregard? Beauregard: RARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"
 * Fan Boy: Deadpool's mooks are actually a bunch of Deadpool fanboys.
 * Film Noir: Spider-Man Noir all the way.
 * Final Boss New Dimension
 * Finish Him!: A non-lethal variety that can be executed when enemies are stunned or close to fainting.
 * Fluffy the Terrible:

"Doc Ock: "Babbling jackanape! Must you ruin everything?" 2099: "She likes me. I can tell.""
 * Foe Yay: Played for laughs with 2099 and Doctor Octopus:

"Amazing Spider-Man: I've seen enough scary movies to know that THIS is the moment the monster jumps out at me. (Sandman's hand comes out of the ground) I KNEW IT!"
 * Follow the Leader: Ever wonder what other recent extremely successful superhero game features a vision mode, which allows you to see enemies and important objects through walls? Not to mention the entire Noir segments.
 * For Science!: The S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists' reasons for giving a piece of the Tablet of Order and Chaos leading to  . Spidey is not amused.
 * Freudian Excuse: The reason that Goblin, Vulture and Hammerhead are villains was because they were all in a freak show.
 * Full-Frontal Assault: Electro. Dr Manhattan meets Ken.
 * Genre Savvy

"Deadpool: "You know, some people feel like they haven't 'beaten' the game until they found every single available token.""
 * Hammerhead has his moments, sometimes verging on Dangerously Genre Savvy.
 * Gosh Dang It to Heck: Spidey Noir has some remarkably mild curses for a gritty 30's gun-toting (in the comics, anyway) vigilante.
 * Giant Hands of Doom: The boss battle with Electro.
 * And one of the fights with Sandman.
 * Giant Wall of Watery Doom: TSUNAMI!!
 * Gotta Catch Em All: The Spider-Men must find the various fragments of the Tablet of Order and Chaos.
 * Also, there's finding the various spider-emblems and hidden spiders on each level. They're optional achievements, but achievements are needed to unlock further abilities and benefits.
 * If you spend enough time looking for spider emblems on Ultimate Deadpool's stage, Deadpool will begin paraphrasing the famous Pokémon tagline.
 * Gun Fu: Deadpool. He even mentions this by name.
 * The Gunslinger: Silver Sable
 * Humiliation Conga: More like Humiliation Conga Line. The ending credits show an increasingly surreal punishments for each villain, like Sandman stuck in an hourglass, Doc Ock acting as mother to her monsters, Carnage posing for pictures, and Goblin back in the circus. Deadpool arguably gets off the easiest; while he still is stuck on a Far Side Island complete with palm tree, it looks like he's caught a fish, and we all know he has the little yellow boxes to keep him company.
 * Deadpool? What about Kraven and Hobgoblin? The former is still able to hunt somewhat and the latter is not only active, but has started a team of Goblins.
 * Humongous Mecha: Tinkerer loves his robuts.
 * 100% Completion: Mocked by - you guessed it - Deadpool:

"Deadpool: Hey, fair's fair, right?"
 * Hunting the Most Dangerous Game: Kraven, naturally.
 * Hurricane of Puns: The entire dialogue in the game is riddled with puns.
 * Incredibly Obvious Bug: The device Silver Sable uses to track Juggernaut is a massive slab of electronics about the size of a hardback book slapped onto the back of his head.
 * I'm Giving You The Fragment, Sucker:

"Amazing Spider-Man: Marko?... Marko?! Sandman (Flint Marko): Polo!"
 * Played straight with Noir Hammerhead, who grabs Spider Man and headbutts him after saying "I give! I give!", and even calls him a sucker.
 * I'm a Humanitarian: Noir Vulture.
 * Arguably, Carnage.
 * Immortality Immorality: Silvermane 2099
 * Improbable Weapon User: Goblin can hurt Noir by SCREAMING at him.
 * Incredibly Lame Pun: Madame Web: (after beating Electro) "You certainly showed him what's watt!"
 * If you're going to do electric puns try to stay current.
 * Even more in the DS. Even Spider-Man admits the jokes are reVOLTing.
 * When Sandman shows up:

"Spider-Man: Great! Now it's just him and me. Juggernaut: YOU!!!
 * Interquel: The Ultimate section takes place before the Gwen Stacy clone was purged of Carnage, but not before it imitated her and was captured.
 * Ironic Echo: After Amazing Spider-Man tricks Silver Sable into following Juggernaut's tracker halfway across the city.

Spider-Man: (nervously) Great! Now it's just him and me."

"Deadpool: "And cut to commercial!""
 * Irony: The black suit given to Ultimate Spidey is made to aide him in his quest, sounds good so far. Then we find out that his opponents are Electro, an opponent whose powers are established to be the suit's weakness, Deadpool, whose understanding of the world he's in allows him to figure out what to do against the suit, and in Carnage's stage, the slayer robots will attack you, due to a "symbiotic organism". The suit caused more trouble.
 * Joisey: Where Hammerhead gets his fragment. Seriously.
 * Just Between You and Me: Subverted by Doc Ock. "Hmm, I could kill you or I could explain everything and then kill you... I think I'll just kill you."
 * Sonofa...
 * Played straight later in the level, though, when 2099 manages to get her to spill the beans on her whole plan simply by acting like he finds the whole thing terribly unimpressive, despite her best efforts to explain how complex and innovative her plan is.
 * Kill It with Fire: The fights with Carnage.
 * Knight of Cerebus: Carnage, see Mood Whiplash.
 * Also, Goblin and Vulture.
 * Large Ham: Mysterio, Electro, Doctor Octopus 2099... most of the villains have their moments. Not to mention Stan Lee as the narrator.
 * Thank you, thank you. Please, don't throw flowers, just send money!
 * Leet Lingo: Electro
 * Let's Fight Like Gentlemen: Subverted by Hammerhead. Reverted by Noir.
 * Kraven is fond of this. He even killed two of his henchmen for dueling Spider-Man 2 against 1.
 * Light Is Not Good:
 * Mad Bomber:  does this to pull off the aforementioned tidal wave.
 * Melee a Trois: Juggernaut vs. Silver Sable vs. Spider-Man; The Public Eye vs. Spider-Man vs. both Hobgoblin and Scorpion; S.H.I.El.D. vs. Carnage vs. Spider-Man.
 * Mission Control: Madame Web, of course.
 * Moment Killer:

"Spidey (after knocking Carnage into a turbine.): Spidey:"
 * Mood Whiplash: The second Ultimate Spider-Man segment has Spidey fighting against the wisecracking Deadpool. The third segment involves  Spider-Man is also dead serious during this chapter and even lets loose a couple swears. Justified, since this is Carnage we're talking about.
 * The fact that this came after the segment where  also counts as an example.
 * Within the level too, as outside of cutscenes Spidey continues to fire off the one liners we've heard from him over the course of the two previous levels... except during the fights with  A few examples...

"Spidey: "Is there a mute button for him?" Spidey: "Is this what my enemies think of me?""
 * Motor Mouth: Deadpool just won't stop talking. Lampshaded by Ultimate Spider-Man:

"Spider-Man 2099: "Shock shock shock shock shock shock shock shock!""
 * Ultimate Spider-Man's list of various new names based on trucks that could be used instead of Elctr-Oh.
 * Mythology Gag: As mentioned in "Hey, It's That Voice", every version of Spidey present here is voiced by an actor that has done so for the character in the past. The same can be said for Deadpool (it seems Nolan North is becoming Marvel's go-to guy to voice Deadpool, much in the same vein as Steven Blum as Wolverine and Fred Tatasciore as the Hulk), Hammerhead, Carnage, Silver Sable, Steven Blum as a Goblin (even if it was the Green Goblin before), and John Kassir as Deadpool's fanboys.
 * Members of the Enforcers are mentioned during Hammerhead's stage (e.g. one of the Mook conversations is about Fancy Dan, and another is about Snake Marston). The Enforcers were Hammerhead's direct subordinates in The Spectacular Spider-Man and the Noir versions worked for Osborn.They are also no strangers to working for Mob bosses.
 * When Electro sees Ultimate Spider-Man, he calls him Spectacular Spider-Shmuck. As mentioned above, Josh Keaton voiced spidey in Spectacular Spider-Man.
 * And Electro is voiced by the guy who voiced Stan Carter on the same show.
 * Ultimate Deadpool makes a LOT of referances to his mainstream counterpart, including his pre-battle cry, "Yay, now is fighty time! FIGHTY TIME! Blood! Blood! Blood! Blood!"
 * Also one of Deadpool's fan boys is Deadpool himself, possibly referencing how he likes to talk to himself.
 * During the final Hobgoblin battle, Hobby says "Welcome to my reality Spider-Man! Hope you survive the experience!"-a reference to a semi Running Gag on X-Men comic covers when introducing a new character. ("Welcome to the X-Men (character X)! Hope you survive the experience!")
 * One of the achievements is called Minimized Carnage
 * And one of the Ingame-Achievements (the ones needed to unlock new abilities) is called Maximum Carnage
 * Deadpool's TV Show "Pain Factor" is a reference to the gauntlet he went through in Suicide Kings.
 * One of the commercials in the Pain Factor level is a Blaxploitation themed advert for Stephen Strange, Jr, the Ultimate Dr. Strange. Becomes a Reverse Funny Aneurysm with the line "He's cheated death itself," given that by the time the game was released, Strange Jr. was dead.
 * Ultimate Spider Man sometimes yells out Venom's classic line of "I'll eat your brains!"
 * The quarry in Sandman's level is owned by Roxxon, the huge and often evil energy company that operates in the Marvel Universe.
 * Two posters for the freakshow in the carnival level stick out- one has a fat man that bears a striking resemblance to X-Men villain Blob, especially fitting since his origin was him as a sideshow freak, and another advertises a Fantastic rubber man.
 * While not definite, it's likely the Juggernaut being in the game is a reference to the Roger Stern story "Nothing Can Stop the Juggernaut", from Amazing Spider-Man 229-230. It's well remembered, and one of the very few times Spidey and the Juggernaut have faced. In fact, it's climax was at a construction site- the same area where the Juggernaut is faced in SD.
 * The achievement for beating the Juggernaut even references the title of this story and it's more recent follow-up.
 * Nerds Are Sexy / Evil Is Sexy: Doc Ock.
 * New Powers As The Game Demands: To keep the four Spider-Men's abilities consistent, Spider-Man 2099 gets spider-sense, while Spidey Noir gets improved web-shooting abilities; the changes are lampshaded by the characters themselves.
 * Spider-Man Noir also loses the revolver he used in the comics, probably because it would have been too difficult to balance and would have shifted the Noir segments into Third-Person Shooter territory; after all, the X Men Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance games have characters with guns.
 * Nice Job Breaking It, Hero - All of this trouble began because Amazing Spider-Man punched the tablet Mysterio was stealing.
 * Noble Fugitive: Spidey 2099 apparently.
 * Oh Crap: O'Hara has a moment in Scorpion's stage, upon noticing the cracked glass he's standing on.

""Dude, pants! No one wants to see your junk!""
 * Overly Long Gag: WITHOUT PANTS!
 * Pardon My Klingon: Spider-Man 2099 uses the swear words established in Marvel 2099 comics, most notably, "shock" for the f-word.
 * Playing with Fire and Super Speed: Kraven in his rematch.
 * Please Put Some Clothes On: From Ultimate Spider-Man's encounter with Electro.

"Amazing Spider-Man: I'm Spider-man! That's what I do. Break pots!"
 * Preorder Bonus: Pre-ordering a PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 version from Gamestop gets each character a Cosmic Spider-Man costume. Or, if you order it from Amazon, Spider-Man 2099 gets Spider-Man's Iron Spider costume unlocked at the beginning, K-Mart will get you the Scarlet Spider costume for Amazing Spidey.
 * Pre-ordering from Best Buy unlocks Noir Spider-Man's Negative Zone costume early. Other costumes that can be unlocked early from pre-orders are the Spider armor costume for 2099, and the Marvel Mangaverse costume for Ultimate.
 * Psycho Electro: Electro, of course.
 * Rewarding Vandalism: Zig Zagged: Played straight by Ultimate and 2099 (destroying the surrondings gives them "Spider Essence"), averted in Amazing's Universe, but Lampshaded as if he would play it straight:

"Deadpool: "Next episode we'll welcome a very special guest!" Spider-Man: [to himself] "Who?" Deadpool: "You, Spider-Man!" Spider-Man: "Wait, what?!""
 * Rule of Cool: The most likely reason that Ultimate Spider-man uses the symbiote suit. It also distinguishes him from Amazing Spidey. Madame Webb magically keeps it from going bad, while retaining its awesome.
 * Scary Scorpions: The Scorpion
 * Shoryuken:
 * Shout-Out: Kraven finds his fragment of the ToOaC on the internet. Now where have we heard that before?
 * Two of the achievements in Ultimate's first stage are called The Blue Bomber and Red Raid.
 * Sandman tries out some new tricks to beat Spider-Man at the sand quarry.
 * Ultimate Spidey mentions an "Electro Light Orchestra" joke during the first fight with Electro.
 * "Lamest. Supervillian. Ever!"
 * That's so Kraven!
 * Game changer, man! Game changer!
 * Doc Ock's fate may be a reference to Octomom.
 * Deadpool: It's like I ate a whole can of spinach!
 * Mary Jane! Stop this crazy thing!
 * Spidey shouts out I! SHALL NOT! PASS! whenever he comes to an obstacle in the DS version.
 * I love the smell of burning superhero in the morning. Smells like... BACON!
 * Amazing: (Upon getting the glide ability) "Do I need to think happy thoughts too?"
 * In Sandman's level, Amazing Spidey ponders if, by entering the spooky old mine, he has to solve a mystery and unmask someone dressed as a ghost.
 * His money was on "Old Man Jenkins."
 * Snakes Are Evil: Mysterio seems to have developed a love for reptiles at some point.
 * Spin Attack: The recovery-attack.
 * Stealth Based Mission: The Noir segments focus on stealth.
 * Stephen Ulysses Perhero: It's not as obvious as her predecessor Octavius, but Doc Ock's real name is Serena Patel. Serena is a homonym for cirrina.
 * Sympathy for the Devil: 2099 Spidey genuinley feels sorry for Scorpion.
 * Tempting Fate: Amazing Spider-Man both lampshades this and subsequently suffers from it in almost every cutscene he's in. Most notable in the Juggernaut's level where this trope is brought up at least 3 times, 2 within the first 10 seconds of the intro cutscene.
 * The Starscream:
 * The Television Talks Back: Deadpool's also able to break the inner Fourth Wall:

""Just. Open. The door.""
 * This Is Sparta: Ultimate Spidey

"Goblin "He's out there men. He's mocking you! He's mocking me!""
 * This Is the Part Where: See Genre Savvy
 * Thou Shalt Not Kill: The game strongly implies that the player never kills anyone. This is Lampshaded in the tutorial, when Spider-Man 2099 throws a Mook off an elevated bridge, only to have Madame Web whisk him to safety via a dimensional portal.
 * Also, Noir doesn't have his pistol. The game could be a little more subtle about imposing Amazing morality on all four...
 * To be fair, in the original Spidey Noir comic,
 * Too Dumb to Live: Electro
 * You want a bigger example? Try giving one of the most psychotic characters in any Marvel universe ever ultimate power. Who made this choice? S.H.I.E.L.D.
 * Mysterio . Lampshaded by Amazing Spider-Man.
 * Even more pathetic is the fact that he was  He's just asking for another beatdown.
 * Silver Sable follows the tracking device she'd placed on Juggernaut to the other side of New York after Spider-Man threw it away to get rid of her. At no point does she question Juggernaut's sudden departure from the construction yard without leaving a trail of destruction right in front of her, or the speed he was moving.
 * Very few of the villains in the DS version use their fragment pieces to boost their powers.
 * Took a Level In Badass: Madame Web for enhancing Amazing's Spider-sense, Noir's webbing, giving 2099 a Spider-sense that SLOWS TIME, and giving Ultimate the symbiote which she controls with her mind.
 * And while it's never mentioned, where else would Noir Spider-Man suddenly get the ability to stick to walls?
 * Totally Radical: Amazing Spidey will sometimes exclaim "Take this, yo!" while fighting.
 * Trigger Happy: Deadpool and Hammerhead.
 * Tron Lines: 2099 seems to enjoy this a lot.
 * Villainous Breakdown: Implied by Vulture's thugs, they say that he seemed crazier than usual.
 * Ultimate Deadpool would appear to have suffered one since his last appearance in the comics.
 * Doctor Octopus slowly goes from arrogance to homicidal rage as Spidey 2099 tears her plans apart.
 * Mysterio in the finale. He goes from  to.
 * Before you rescue any hostages in Goblin's stage, the Goblin spends his time smugly mocking Spider-Man about the hopelessness of his situation. Rescue a few civilians, and Osborn begins to get a mite upset...


 * What the Hell, Hero?: Spidey gives one to one the SHIELD scientist who thought it was a good idea to give Carnage a piece of the tablet.
 * Why Don't Ya Just Shoot Him: In the comics, Noir literally shoots Vulture dead. This is not the case in-game more than likely due to ratings.
 * Many were surprised to see that Carnage lived to see the end of his stage. It's the only non-humanoid villain you fight in-game and, considering what it did while it was free, Spidey should have definitely killed it.
 * This was most likely because he needed to be alive for a later very important story-line in the Ultimate Universe, and the game developers wanted to make things mesh.
 * beats the tar out of Noir several times throughout his stage, but never finishes the job. This gives Noir enough time to find out his weak point is his back.
 * Both Ultimate Spider-Man and Carnage have the ability to create sharp spikes with their symbiotic powers, but neither opts to do so in the punch-out segment.
 * Winged Humanoid: Hobgoblin (sort of) and Vulture 2099.
 * Wolverine Publicity: Played with. Deadpool is in the Ultimate 'Verse as a villain (though acts more like his Mainstream universe counterpart rather than his Complete Monster Ultimate version), but it's not like Spidey needed help marketing the game.
