to run from left to right through New York's buildings, air ducts, and secret bases on a mission to find the components that can create a sonic wave large enough to send the symbiotes packing. Web of Shadows on the PSP plays as a side scroller featuring 3D characters on a 2D plane - think Bionic Commando Rearmed. With that, the major similarities between the two SKUs stop. Soon, the city is a black, gooey mess that only our friendly, neighborhood Spider-Man can clean up. As you wrestle with these choices, Venom's symbiote continues to break off and infect New Yorkers. From there, Spider-Man can switch between his red duds and his black duds at will and has to make choices throughout the game that dictate whether he's staying true to his "Great Power/Great Responsibility" roots or he's letting the symbiote turn him into the aggressive jerk from the old school comics. Venom shows up, Spider-Man fights him, and part of the black suit we know as the symbiote leaps onto our hero and outfits him with the familiar black and white costume. On a story level, the portable version of this game shares a bit with the tale you'd find on a console. That light - that glimmer of hope - is Spider-Man: Web of Shadows - Amazing Allies Edition.
