POST 4: Ultimate Spider-Man, the black suit and different directions After the early movie adaptations, the games moved through the Ultimate comics, more film material, a co-op brawler and a full symbiote crisis. Even Web of Shadows has several genuinely different versions. Ultimate Spider-Man (2005) Platforms: PlayStation 2, GameCube, Xbox, Windows, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS. Comic-styled action puts Spider-Man and Venom in playable starring roles. Separate DS and GBA adaptations; a distinct mobile release is listed below. Spider-Man: Battle for New York (2006) Platforms: Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance. Handheld prequel to Ultimate Spider-Man with Spider-Man and Green Goblin playable. The DS and GBA releases are the platforms verified here. Spider-Man 3 (2007) Platforms: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Windows, PlayStation 2, Wii, PSP, Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance. The black suit and the third Raimi film provide the setup for another sprawling adaptation. PS3, Xbox 360 and Windows form one development branch; PS2, Wii and PSP form another. DS and GBA have their own handheld interpretations. The phone games are separate as well. Spider-Man: Friend or Foe (2007) Platforms: PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, Wii, Windows, PSP, Nintendo DS. A co-op-oriented brawler recruits familiar villains as allies. PSP and DS also have their own adaptations. Spider-Man: Web of Shadows (2008) Platforms: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, Windows. An open-world symbiote invasion with red- and black-suit combat and choices. Spider-Man: Web of Shadows / Amazing Allies Edition (2008) Platforms: PlayStation 2, PSP. A separate 2.5D side-scrolling version of the symbiote crisis. Spider-Man: Web of Shadows (DS) (2008) Platforms: Nintendo DS. A distinct exploration-focused side-scroller, rather than the open-world console game. So if somebody recommends one of these, asking which system they played it on is actually useful.
