Ultimate Spider-Man

Take on the role of the world's most famous Super Hero, Marvel's Spider-Man, and one of his most menacing nemeses, Venom, in an original storyline written and illustrated by the creative team behind the best-selling Ultimate Spider-Man comic book series.

These three boss characters, Goblin, Beetle and Rhino, offered a groovy sampling of what to expect from the rest of the encounters. But for those who know next to nothing about Ultimate Spider-Man, here's a brief introduction.

It's basically a retelling of the original Spider-Man, only pumped full of pop-culture references and sporting new super-slick character design. Everyone from Rhino and Goblin to Spidey himself benefit from a fresh layer of cool.

There are also a lot of hidden secrets to be found that can include a number of things such as unlockable Spidey art. Many of these tasks seem to revolve around rescuing people in distress of some sort and taking them to safety.

These tasks may seem menial, but the help players practice their Spidey-skills as well as offer a number of different ways to experience the world of a crime-fighting superhero. The great thing is it is up to players to decide just how involved with these side missions they want to get or not.
