About this game
For Ultimate Spider-Man for the DS, developer Vicarious Visions takes the technology and gameplay style of their earlier Spider-Man 2 to adapt the storyline of the console version for the handheld.
Based on the Ultimate Spider-Man comic series, the game follows up on the comic's storyline about Peter Parker's childhood friend Eddie Brock and the Venom suit.

Three months after his apparent death, Venom roams the streets of New York again.
Thus Spider-Man must not only deal with the usual assortment of criminals and supervillains but also his old friend, while both Trask Industries and S.H.I.E.L.D. have set their sights on Eddie, who struggles to take control of the Venom suit.
The DS game follows a cut-down version of the console version's storyline, but differs a lot in the details.
The story is told in comic-style cutscenes that emulate the drawings of series artist Mark Bagley and also feature voice acting.
The game is a 2D side-scroller with real 3D graphics, with the camera moving and rotating to always keep the protagonist in view.
Players will play as both Spider-Man and Venom, who have different abilities and are controlled in fundamentally different ways.
Both must beat up various enemies and fight bosses, but other goals vary between the two.
Spider-Man is controlled via a standard button interface, allowing him to jump, swing along his web, punch, kick, shoot web balls and use his web to zip to walls and ceilings.
When attack moves are stringed into combos, a power meter fills up that allows Spidey to unleash a special move that can be selected beforehand from the touch screen.
His Spider-Sense also comes into play: when in immediate danger, an icon flashes.
Pressing the left shoulder button within time allows Spider-Man to dodge the attack that follows.
A large part of Spider-Man's levels consists of rescuing innocents - freeing them from below heavy objects or carrying them away from danger.
Lifting up the objects requires stroking upwards on the touch s
About PlayStation 2
The PlayStation 2 (2000) is the best-selling game console in history, with a library exceeding 9,000 titles that spans everything from budget shovelware to genre-defining classics. That massive volume means PS2 collecting is accessible and affordable overall, but a handful of low-print-run RPGs and cult titles have become genuinely expensive — a common pattern once a console's original audience grows up with disposable income.
Gamevaro tracks Ultimate Spider-Man: Limited Edition for PlayStation 2 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Ultimate Spider-Man: Limited Edition, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation 2 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
