About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

'Spider-Man 2' (NDS) Slings Way to Stores

Dr. Octopus has put NYC in crisis again, but Spider-Man is coming to the rescue. The controls have been beefed up to allow never-before-seen moves and amazing agility in a fully explorable 3D world that allows Spidey to take on missions and challenges all across the city.

"There is a tremendous amount of enthusiasm for the Nintendo DS and we are excited to be among the launch titles for this innovative new platform," said Kathy Vrabeck, president of Activision Publishing. "Spider-Man 2 takes advantage of the Nintendo DS's processing power by delivering amazing graphics and sound, and gameplay that fully realizes the potential of the dual screen."

Players assume the role of Spider-Man and re-live the movie experience through all new missions featuring unique enemies, objectives and combat maneuvers.

Utilizing the touch screen and new controller layout, players can quickly swing, run, jump, solve puzzles, engage in combat and switch to an arsenal of moves on the fly, while patrolling and protecting the city of Manhattan from the nefarious Doc Ock.

Spider-Man 2 for the Nintendo DS is being developed by Vicarious Visions and is currently rated "E" (Everyone) by the ESRB.
