* [[Acceptable Targets]]: Emo teenagers are this, as Wolverine has no qualms with verbally tearing into them when chatting it up with Spider-Man.
* [[Anticlimax Boss]]: Despite the final boss being humongous and absolutely intimidating, {{spoiler|Venomzilla is a bit of a letdown as far as the battle itself goes. All it really comes down to is getting one of Venomzilla's heads to reach in front of the main torso while you attack once. About two or three hits defeats each head, while the most Venomzilla can do is lash out at you with tendrils and vomit up Symbiotes as backup. A bit of a let-down, especially compared to the previous battle with Symbiote Vulture.}}
* [[Awesome Bosses]]: Thanks to this game having what's considered the best combat system out of any Spider-Man game, a lot of the game's boss fights are incredibly fun. The Vulture fight deserves a mention as it's ridiculously cool to use his [[Mook|Mooks]] as stepping stones while weaving in and out of his attacks as you go after him in the New York sky as you air-combo him into oblivion. {{spoiler|Symbiote Vulture turns this [[Up to Eleven]] as the battle takes place even ''higher'' than his first battle, and you're having to deal with tons of Vultureling Symbiotes while you get to zip around S.H.I.E.L.D hovercrafts in order to stay in the air while absolutely pummeling the hell out of him with all the abilities you've accumulated by this point.}}
** Electro also gets an honorable mention, as it's pretty fun to chase him all around
** The Venom fight at the middle of the game is also quite fun, as it's nothing more complicated than a straight-up brawl with Venom that spans over most of the city. Simple, but quite fun and intense.
* [[Breather Boss]]: Most of this game's bosses aren't overly hard by any means, but Symbiote Electro is noticeably much easier than not only his non-infected counterpart, but the rest of the game's Symbiote infected bosses as well, given that he pretty much stays in one place where it's easy for you to wail on him.
Line 13 ⟶ 14:
* [[Goddamned Bats]]: Most heavy-hitting enemies aren't really hard per-se, but can be incredibly annoying to fight as they can launch you a good distance away with their attacks while you're helpless for a few seconds. It gets incredibly annoying when you're faced with packs of them as they'll all gang up on you and bounce you around like a pinball.
* [[Good Bad Bugs]]: This game is ''very'' glitchy, but fortunately, most of the glitches are harmless and can lead to some very funny events. While I'm not quite sure as to how often they happen to other players, I've had things happen to me such as having a couple of police officers gun an innocent civilian to death who doesn't try to run away, seeing the physics glitch to where Spider-Man flung a car out of orbit, to a civilian walking backwards to the point where he looks like he's ''moonwalking'' during Electro's pre boss fight cutscene.
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: While all of Spider-Man's Black Suit choices are quite assholish, some really cross the line such as whenever the Park Aves and Rolling Seven's gang leaders try to make a truce, Spider-Man can simply let them gun each other down which ''really'' pisses off Luke Cage. Another noteworthy moment is the fact that {{spoiler|the black suit choice whenever Venomzilla has been defeated is to flat out brutally murder Eddie Brock without giving him the choice of sacrificing himself to destroy Venomzilla.}} And while it doesn't end in the poor guy's death, Spider-Man {{spoiler|brutally beating a helpless Electro can be viewed as this due to the fact that Electro is not only ''very'' mentally unstable, but also only violent this time due to being desperate to find his sister and being possessed by an alien symbiote.}}
* [[Most Annoying Sound]]: "Spider-Man, halt!" "Spider-Man! CEASE and DESIST!" The policemen's orders for you to surrender after {{spoiler|mistaking him for a murderer}} get annoying VERY fast, and will be a common occurrence since they always show up whenever random crimes are afoot.
** During the [[That One Level|Riker's Island]] segment, Rhino's rage-filled cries are extremely repetitive and will grow to grate your nerves the more you hear them.
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: Venom as usual due to his demonic voice and creepy obsession with Peter Parker, but the fact that he starts reproducing and ends up turning New York into an alien-infested hellhole makes it even worse.
** And then, there's his {{spoiler|final form as Venomzilla: not only is he huge, but he has multiple heads that are all filled with sharp, lovingly-rendered teeth. He's genuinely intimidating and quite the imposing villain.}}
Line 21 ⟶ 23:
** While {{spoiler|Symbiote Vulture loses a bit of his edge thanks to the fact that he still keeps a very civil and polite manner of speaking, the way he casually strangles a S.H.I.E.L.D troop to death while the sound of him choking and desperately struggling to breathe can be heard is quite chilling. Hell, even Black Widow is noticeably uncomfortable upon hearing this, [[Mama Bear|and is understandably ready to tear him to pieces.]]}}
* [[Older Than They Think]]: The game's main gimmick is the ability to switch between the classic red costume & the symbiote at the press of a button - The same thing was done in the ''[[Spider-Man (film)|Spider-Man 3]]'' tie-in game, only it was done via small quick-time events.
* [[That One Boss]]: Wolverine's fighting style isn't all that hard to deal with, but ends up being hard anyway due to the fact that at random intervals, Wolverine will pause to ask you questions related to Spider-Man trivia in an attempt to see if he's battling the true Peter Parker. The main problem is that quite a few of these questions are quite obscure and if are answered wrong, Wolverine's health fills back up a lot. You starting to see the problem now? Hilariously enough, {{spoiler|he's easier when you fight him later
* [[That One Level]]: Riker's Island, hoo boy. Picture this: you're on a prison island where there is a never-ending stream of armed guards that will tear you up with rapid gunfire, mines placed everywhere deeper into the prison that will do tons of damage and very likely blow you into more mines should you step on them, and a mechanic where you must mount Rhino and have him charge around in order to bash your way into the prison where he will throw you off every few seconds and throw a tantrum for about a minute where he does a lot of hard hitting attacks. Combine that with the fact that Rhino is prone to glitching and will do things such as not destroy generators you need to him to break and will instead stop in place and inexplicably damage you, or even worse get stuck in a loop of him charging at a wall and being impossible to stop once he does so, and you have on HELL of an absolutely ''irritating'' level.
** While a [[Awesome Bosses|pretty thrilling boss in itself]], Electro can be quite the tough opponent as well. He constantly zips around
