I swear I have swung on 50 poles and I KNOW I have webbed up 25 enemies and yet no achievements. Is there a special way you have to do either one? Is there any easy way to swing on poles I just keep going it circles tapping RT and trying to catch one. HELP!? :uzi:

By Swinging on poles it means you need to actually grab a pole and swing on it. You need to jump from under a pole (ex: street light) and press B to grab it. Then your swinging on the pole.
you can also swing on the same pole over and over again but you have to jump off and catch it on the way down...thats what i did...took about a minute.

You need to web them up by holding B and then press A to jump, Spidey will jump to the nearest lamp post or traffic lights and hang them up, this counts as one web up you need to do this another 24 times and yes you can do it to the same enemy. Its actually quite cool cause if you web them up again while they are already hanging, spidey will web up the other hand, you can continue with both legs and hands, lol. Enjoy!

Thanks! One more question real quick. How do you do the hitch hiker one there cars only move like 10 feet before they stop and I have to do this for 5 miles???? There HAS to be an easier way!!

During one of the Dragon Tail missions, you have to follow a truck with a cop car, just ride on the cop car and fail the mission by letting the truck get away, then do it again. You should have it by the end of the second try.
Also, for the webbing achievement, I got mine when I webbed up the propeller blades in that plant, so it counts it any time you fully web something. Just webbing them a bit and hanging them doesn't work, you have to hold B until they are fully webbed.

Yes I suggest doing some random city missions till you find one where you have to chase a gang car down, they are pretty common. just knock the gang members off the top and before stopping the driver, just stay on top and go make a cup of tea. Come back and you should have the achievement as these cars don't stop till you stop them

For the Web Slinger, I never used the pole method and used like subdue and Y, B combo. It took forever, I got it on like one of the very last missions in the game. I think the counting is fucked up when doing it that way.
For Hitch hiker, when you're on a car that requires you to punch people out of the windows and then X or Y to rip the bonet off, kill all the guys and do not rip the bonet off. The car will not stop (or so i know of) and you cannot die or fall of.
The hitch hiker achievement is also comprehensive... the cars do eventually stop when they get stuck and the people get out... i got mine about 5 seconds into one of the crime spree side missions because i had already rode other cars for 4.9 miles total...so you do not have to do it all in one shot.

For the pole achievement you can just swing on one single poll the same one for all 50 times. The catch is you have to jump off the poll and then repeat.
For the web up, don't know what to tell ya! I am on mission 39/42 and am still trying to get this. I however have not hung the people on polls, I have only subdued them and used the Y + B combo. (Which supposably works)
For the hitch hiker, I did this when a random crime fighting mission popped up. I heard sirens coming so I just hopped on the police cars as he drove around the building the gang members were in.
