Getting back to games you can play on systems you currently own, Ign (http://www.ign.com) has the scoop on Ultimate Spider-Man the game for Xbox. Check their page (http://xbox.ign.com/articles/615/615782p1.html) for Impressions, pics and a video even!
With the Spider-Man license in hand and the next Spidey movie not out until 2007, Activision decided it needed a Spider-Man game to fill the gap. Rather than rehashing Spider-Man 2, Activision looked towards Marvel comics for inspiration. They chose the relatively new Ultimate Spider-Man comic-book as the basis for continuing the Spidey game franchise. This isn't your father's Spider-Man (we're not even sure what your father would be doing with Spider-Man... not that there's anything wrong with that). USM is a slick and refreshing take on Spider-Man gaming, adopting both the look and emotional gravity of the comic.
This game looks so much like the comic it's sick. I must own this.
