While 2005 saw the GBA wells drying up, in 2006 they were nearly empty. It was in that year the handheld really hit its stride with the release of the DS Lite redesign and amazing titles like New Super Mario Bros. and Elite Beat Agents among many more.

2006 was one of the strange years when Activision took a year off from making a Spider-Man console game, more than likely due to the fact that it had both Spider-Man 3, which debuted on over a half a dozen different platforms, and Spider-Man: Friend or Foe each set to be released in 2007.

What everyone was really looking forward to was Spider-Man’s debut on the sixth generation of consoles which was already announced to be the game that…

After a strong start in 2000’s Spider-Man, they built upon that game’s foundation in a PSOne sequel Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro and the first Spider-Man movie game on the sixth generation of consoles before once again revolutionizing how we all played Spider-Man games with Spider-Man…
