Like its predecessor, Spider-Man 2 features a robust photo mode that allows you to take the perfect photo of Spider-Man web-swinging through New York.
Once you’ve unlocked the suit you want, you’re going to want to find a good spot to take photos. This guide will help you find the best locations in New York to go crazy with your camera in Spider-Man 2.
Little Odessa Church
For the most part, New York looks like a grid of dull, grey skyscrapers. However, there are a few hidden spots of beauty that you’ll discover as you’re web-swinging to stop crime. One of the places you should stop at is Little Odessa Church.
It has a baroque design which makes it stand out from all its neighbors. Perch on a steeple for a good shot, or stand in front of it if you want to capture the church’s majesty.
Big Hand
There are a few interesting sculptures you’ll find around the map if you explore enough. One of the coolest is the big hand you can sit in. It also gives you a nice view of Downtown Brooklyn.
It can be tricky to find this statue. It’s located at the spot highlighted above.
Times Square
Times Square is one of the most iconic places in the world, and you can visit it in Spider-Man 2. You should check it out at night because you’ll get to see all the lights more clearly.
You’ll find Times Square at the spot highlighted above. Climb onto one of the buildings, and you’ll be able to take a nice shot.
Manhattan Bridge and Brooklyn Bridge
You’ll find these bridges not too far from each other. They span over the East River, and if you want a shot of Spider-Man with the river as a backdrop, there’s no better way to do it than to perch on one of the bridges.
There’s also airstreams you can glide on if you want some cool action shots. Alternatively, find a sailboat to perch on.
The Park of Coney Island
There’s an amusement park called The Park of Coney Island, and it’s filled with families and couples, bright lights, and spinning rides. If you want to take pictures here, come at night, as this is when the park looks the best.
On the ground, you can take plenty of pictures of Spider-Man standing among New Yorkers. There are also plenty of places to perch or web-swing from if you want a more cinematic shot.
You’re advised to avoid fast-traveling too much in Spider-Man 2, as it stops you from discovering new spots to take photos at. You’ll also miss out on the tech stashes and collectibles scattered throughout New York.
