Spider-Man

With a major movie in the works, Spider-Man has come a long way since his 1962 comic-book debut, but he’s never looked as cool as he does in this 3-D action-adventure game (not even as a regular on The Electric Company). Smooth controls and quick-changing perspectives allow you to employ all of Spidey’s trademark powers—wall-crawling, web-slinging, even a cool spider-sense that warns of impending peril—to swing from skyscraper to skyscraper and battle supervillains such as the Scorpion or the Green Goblin. Featuring cinematic cut-scenes and a comic-book narrative style, Spider-Man is also one of the best-looking games to ever hit a home console. Not bad for a guy who wears footie pajamas to work.
