Although I've featured a previous Beenox Spider-Man game on this list already, you can always tell in retrospect that their movie tie-ins were limited in what they could and couldn't do with the character.

Shattered Dimensions comes with no such constraints however, and as a result, stands out as one of the greatest Spider-Man games to ever hit console. While it ditches the open world structure for more linear levels, the implementation of four distinct Spider... Men, made for a game that was constantly varied and interesting.

But while the gameplay itself was well-crafted, it was the worlds of the different Spider-Men that truly cemented this title as a must-play for fans of the hero. With their distinct art styles and structure, playing as each Spider-Man is a complete joy.

Whether you're causing chaos in the gorgeous 70s style of The Amazing Spider-Man or catching criminals from the shadows in the world of Spider-Man Noir, Shattered Dimensions has something for every type of Spidey fan.
