The last time Treyarch took on Spider-Man, gamers were treated to a fully-realized Manhattan. While the story elements and boss battles left much to be desired, there was no end to the joy in swinging from skyscraper to skyscraper. That thrill is set to return this May with the release of Spider-Man 3 on PS2, PS3, PSP, Wii and Xbox 360. Only this time, Treyarch plans to deliver the complete package with compelling missions to complement the city exploration elements.
IGN sat down with executive producer Chris Archer to learn what changes we can expect in Spider-Man 3. Though Vicarious Visions is handling the Wii version, the basic gameplay elements remain the same.
From the Amazing Spider-Man series to the most recent titles and DLCs, explore which Spider-Man game deserves to be ranked first and why.
Spider-Man 2 (2004) and Ultimate Spider-Man use to be my favorite until Insomniac games took over.
My favorite and still champion Spiderman PS2, followed by Marvels Spiderman2, then Miles Morales, followed by Marvels Spiderman, and finally Ultimate Spiderman.
I need to drag out my PS3 and try Web of Shadows, owned the game for years and years and never played.
Spider-Man (2000), Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro, and Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions were all so good! I have fond memories playing them.
Phil writes, "It's never a good feeling to be hyped for the next installment of one of your favorite franchises, and then POW! You're blindsided with an extremely disappointing game that hardly lives up to your anticipation and hype. That's the focus of The Most Disappointing Video Game Sequels, and now we're at the fifth installment. This are six more of those games that were either rushed out, released in a broken or incomplete state, or were simply less than stellar experiences overall.
After you browse through and read up on the latest unfortunate games added to this growing series of articles, which game sequels that haven't already been mentioned in a previous article do you think should be added in a future installment?"

Not the point. I for one want Metal Gear Solid 4 in minimum native 1080p and 60FPS. On PS3 it ran 1024 x 768 and about 25FPS.
So the only way that ever looks like happening is via emulation. Good work is being done on RPCS3.
Ain't happening. You'll get 1080P but the frame rate won't run at 60 fps. Emulators don't work that way as PC games does. Not a single emulator has been able to override a 30 fps game to run at 60 fps ... actual 60 frames.
"Ain't happening. You'll get 1080P but the frame rate won't run at 60 fps. Emulators don't work that way"
WRONGGGGG!!!!
@ MarioJP87 Lol sorry but go back to your console, you know nothing about PC emulation. I have run countless console titles that originally ran at 30FPS on PC emulators with a full fat 60FPS refresh. Countless! I suggest you google for Zelda BOTW emulation, where it's easy to have 50FPS+ for a game usually running 30 or below on Switch. https://www.youtube.com/wat... Just the other day I ran 25FPS PS2 game Metal Gear Solid 3 at 1080/60FPS on PCSX2 https://www.youtube.com/wat... ......two examples.
It is true some games are designed with critical parts of the engine locked to frame rate, but most actually aren't. Probably 98 percent aren't. This is because many console games don't remain locked to 30FPS, so unless you hit the 30FPS you have problems elsewhere.
Whats more some of the ones that do have stuff like animation and physics locked to a 30FPS pacing occasionally have work around options baked into an advanced emulator.
MGS3 is one of those with specific configuration for 60FPS, AND it even has analogue button controller support to boot! Not even the Xbox 360 remaster has that!
Thank you for schooling him, ProjectVulcan! I was like...wtf is this guy talking about? haha Someone has never used an emulator before I guess.
By that logic you might as well not play any console exclusive from this gen since one day it will possibly be playable in native 4k, 144hz.
Yeah its a fact that the higher the res and frame rate the better, but waiting for all these years while the graphics themselves start to become outdated seems like one step forward, two steps back.
@marioJP87
One of the benefits of emulation is the ability to run at higher resolutions and smoother framerates. I can assure you I've run many console games at 60fps which normally run far below that. ProjectVulcan is correct about everything he said.
@Father__Merrin
I don't want to have yet another console cluttering up the area around my TV. I don't really have the space for it to be honest. Backwards compatibility should be a normal feature for any gaming device. But emulation brings lots of additional benefits anyway.
Show me a YouTube video with all of your claims and I will retract my comment. I've been emulating for years on PC, PS3 in its linux days and android. I know what I'm talking about. You claim 98% of emulated games? Show me proof. What can you provide besides MGS?
What other emulators do you claim are capable of this?
Erm, most emulators are capable of it. DEMUL, PCSX2, Dolphin, Project64, ePSXe etc etc.....
I showed you two games that emulate at higher frame rates than on their native platforms. One is enough to prove the point. Pick either. Find videos of the other ten thousand yourself, it is not difficult.
It's a fact and you really don't know anything about emulation if you think that you cannot emulate console games to run faster! That's patently not true to anyone that has genuinely emulated console games on PC before.
Bull crap. I've been running dolphin for years on my laptop. I'm currently running it on my GTX 965m. I damn sure cant run resident evil 4 at 60 fps and I mean real 60 fps, not 60 frames with a locked 30 fps. I cant run "The Warriors" or "Manhunt" on PCSX2 at 60 fps.
Now if you can show me just a 30 second video of you running RE4 at 60 fps using dolphin, then I will admit to you being right and me being wrong.
Shhhhh. Let the master race who claim to have a better game platform try and find ways to illegally play better games.
Huh? Most people have played these games before and want to replay them on higher settings. Those who haven't won't enjoy them as much without nostalgia anyway.
Emulation is not illegal. This shouldn't have to be pointed out here, it should be common knowledge even to knuckle dragging mouth breathers.
They get all the PC games, PLUS the ability to play console games. Sounds like master race to me!
Poor Heavy Rain lol that game was and is a pile. Emulation sounds cool though - Res. Evil 3 and Directors Cut all the way.
Know that would be a great collection of games for sure. My only gripe with these games was how difficult they got by the time you were two thirds of the way through the campaign.
So games run at 10 fps and graphical glitches not seen since pcsx2 in 2003,.. I will get there someday.
