What Are Photo Ops in Spider-Man 2?
Although your main job as Spider-Man is to protect the friendly neighborhood of New York, you’ve also got to balance Peter Parker’s duties, such as collecting photos for the Daily Bugle. The Photo Opps locations are essentially sights you need to travel to to take specific photos of anything from car crashes to Oscorp protests.
To collect a Photo Ops, you just need to get close to the location and you’ll get a prompt to take a photo. Then, all you need to do is head to the camera menu and start snapping!
After you collect every Photo Ops, you will be rewarded with the ‘New York, New York’ achievement, and earn one bronze trophy. You’ll need to unlock this achievement if you want to 100% complete Spider-Man 2.
