Well, since we've completed everybody's first stage, let's go for all the second stages!
Spider-Man Stage 2
Since you've already played Spider-Man's first stage, you know what to expect here: having to swing across the ceilings and climb walls in a maze-like environment in the way that the game wants you to.
Once again, it's shoot, avoid, shoot, avoid, double shoot against those robots throwing the metal shards at you.
The ceiling robots shoot out orbs that follow you around. Take them out before taking out the robots themselves.
Pay attention to the rain in the foreground. When it goes left, the wind will blow you left when you're in mid-air. When it goes right...yeah, you get the picture. It's a pain in the butt unless you can time when it happens to a science and you can use the wind in your favor.
The boss here is the tag team of Carnage and Rhino. Why LJN decided to put them together as one boss, I have no idea. Focus all your attacks on Carnage by staying on the right-hand wall and shooting at Carnage while keeping an eye out for Rhino, as he'll knock you off the wall unless you're quick about it. Avoid Carnage's bullets (which happen to be pieces of him), and when you beat him, the Carnage symbiote seperates from him and he turns into a naked man.
For the love of God and all that is holy, how did this get past Nintendo's censors?
Anyway, this leaves you to beating Rhino. To do this, you'll have to...web-swing into him. How are you supposed to figure this out? I certainly don't know!
Also, Rhino explodes, but we get the real Carnage. What the hell.
