September 11, 2001 edits

The original version of the game was pulled after the September 11, 2001 attacks to change the final battle. Originally the battle was atop the North Tower of the World Trade Center, but since the towers were destroyed on September 11, the game was re-released with a different ending. Originally, Electro shouted "Top of the world man!" as he departed his battle with Spider-Man for the towers, giving Spidey the clue he needed to track him down for the final boss battle, but in the re-released game, he just happens to guess correctly. This was removed because the game's original ending takes place atop the World Trade Center towers when the game was being developed and it was removed because of the towers' destruction on 11 September 2001. Several levels were renamed in the re-release version of the game:

"Crash Flight!" to "Wind Tunnel"

"Downroad Spiral" to "The Corkscrew"

"Aces High" to "The Gauntlent"

"Top of the World" to "The Best Laid Plans
