There are more
video games based on
Spider-Man than any
decent society should permit. Some of the more successful ones include his
1991 outings for
Sega (
Spider-Man The Videogame in the arcades,
Spider-Man versus The Kingpin for home formats), his numerous
Acclaim-published efforts (
Maximum Carnage,
Spider-Man and the X-Men), and his recent
Playstation and
PC game, simply titled
Spider-Man, which was narrated by
Stan Lee.
One of the coolest features of this newest game is that Spidey doesn't allow the player to enter swearwords in the save game dialogue box. (Hey, I found this accidentally when trying to enter "Don't get cocky, Spidey" after performing a particularly skillful manouvre.) He actually scuttles on screen and replaces them with nice words with a hearty thump, to whit:-
C - U - N - Thwap! COOKIE
F - U - C - Thwap! FUDGE
S - H - I - Thwap! NICE
OK, he is sworn to fight crime, but surely he has his priorities a bit mixed up.
