The web-slinging superhero has seen more than his share of comic books and live-action incarnations, and it's time for one more. Based on the 2002 movie starring Tobey Maguire as Spidey, the game sends you out through the streets of Manhattan to track down and defeat your arch-nemesis: Green Goblin. Unlike SPIDER-MAN games of the past, this one actually allows you to fight your enemies in mid-air, using a complex web system to keep yourself suspended. Green Goblin isn't the only threat you'll have to worry about, mind you; Vulture, Shocker, and a whole host of robotic foes will try to slow your progress. In addition to your webbing, you'll be able to use combinations of punches and kicks to inflict damage throughout the game, which features scenes straight from the movie. The graphics are positively awesome, there are dozens of gameplay hours packed in, and the enemy AI is frightening. Any questions?
