SPIDER-MAN 2 TIPS & TRICKS
How to beat enemies
To defeat enemies that block your attacks, have guns, or dodge your web, use the Web Splash maneuver (L2 + Triangle). This will quickly cover them up with webbing and will make them easier to defeat.
To defeat enemies easily, just throw them off a high building. Use an easy combo such as L1 + Square, then Charge Jump and press Square repeatedly, or just use L1 + Square frequently.
