A new Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 mod has done the unthinkable bringing two of the most legendary characters from GTA San Andreas into Insomniac’s latest web-slinging adventure.
If you’ve ever dreamed of swinging through the streets of New York as CJ from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, or watching Big Smoke try (and hilariously fail) to keep up with Spidey’s acrobatics, then you’re in luck!
CJ and Big Smoke Enter the Spider-Verse
The internet never forgets, and it certainly never let’s go of meme-worthy characters. CJ, the eternally quotable protagonist of GTA San Andreas, and his food-loving, mission-failing best friend Big Smoke, have been given a new lease on life in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 thanks to an ambitious modding effort. This mod replaces Peter Parker and Miles Morales with CJ and Big Smoke, letting you swing, fight, and free roam NYC in true Grove Street style.
Imagine CJ in full Spider-Man attire, delivering his classic line: “Ah s**t, here we go again” every time he gets thrown into a combat sequence. Meanwhile, Big Smoke’s hefty frame makes for some of the most unintentionally hilarious web-slinging animations ever seen in the game. If you thought watching him struggle to climb over a small fence in San Andreas was funny, just wait until you see him attempt a backflip off a skyscraper!
How to Install the Mod
If you want to experience the magic for yourself, you’ll need Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 on PC. The mod itself is available through various modding forums and Nexus Mods, where dedicated fans are constantly refining and updating their work.
