Based around the best-selling comic, “Ultimate Spiderman” - this game lets players take on the role of Spider-Man, and one of his most menacing nemeses, Venom. With an original storyline by the comic authors and set in a massive free-roaming New York City environment (including the new borough of Queens), the game delivers the most in-depth Spider-Man adventure to date. A large variety of demanding missions, diverse gameplay and a new combat system allows players to face off against the largest number of interactive characters from the Marvel universe ever assembled in a Spider-Man game. Improved since Spiderman 2 and retaining the aspects that made the game so successful - Ultimate Spiderman utilises interactive comic book panels and 3D Comic Inking Technology™ allowing players to be seamlessly integrated into a virtual comic book experience. As previously mentioned, one of the greatest features of this game is the ability to play as Venom - one of the most evil comic-book villains of all time!
