According to the new OXM magazine, Spider-Man's newest adventure (complete with the alien symbiote costume that Venom made famous) will be released on the Xbox 360 sometime around May 2007.
The screenshots that are in the magazine look stunning, and New York City will be bigger than any other console - which will include the tops of skyscrapers down to a new subterranean layer complete with sewers, subways, and supervillain hideouts.
Treyarch's Senior Producer Gregory John says this of the game, "It's the largest, most detailed Manhattan in any Spider-Man game."
Needless to say... I am waiting impatiently to play this game!!!
They've probably been working on this game as long as they've been working on the Movie. Spider Man games are usually a fine example of how Movies to Games should be. Either way it will be the first Next-Gen Spiderman game, I'm excited.
I really enjoyed Ultimate Spider Man for the Regular XboX.
This has me all worked up now, I might go home and play the very first Spiderman for the Atari 2600 .

Largest, most detailed Manhattan yet...gulp, I am afraid for my 360 LOL. Words like this scare me, as I always think of it getting the 360 hotter than normal LOL.
Spider-Man games are fun, and this one should be fun as well.
Now, just have to wait for the Captain America movie and then game. They are supposedly coming out with a movie, even though they are killing Captain America.
Mmm...Spider-Man. I hope they give the true 80's original comic story of how the suit actually came to be, in the movie and game. If you dont know, Spider-Man was whisked away to an alien world to participate in an intergalatic UFC style throwdown. His suit was destroyed and needed a new one. Thus the fabled black suit was born, which enhanced his powers of strength and what not, and also allowed him to not have to use his webslingers. What I hope they do in the game, is make it so you can "take it off" whenever you want. Because in the comic he never took the suit off, it just transformed into street clothes. In the end, all I know, is Venom better be badass on the big screen, I've waited through two Spideys already for him. I've heard also, there's suppose to be an appearance by Carnage in the movie.

Sorry, not gonna happen that way. [spoiler]The symbiote comes from space in some manner. I don't recall if it's on a crashed meteior, or if it comes back from some space mission, but Sam Raimi is not doing the Secret Wars story.[/spoiler].
Never in my life played a SpiderMan game, but from what I saw in the trailer the gameplay looks pretty good.
I played a demo for one on PS1 at a Circuit City or something about 8 years ago and it was incredibly fun. Other than that, I haven't played anything Spiderman in my life.
This, however, looks like it just might be a ridiculously fun game. Spiderman on next-gen just sounds so good.
