7 Video Games You MUST Play On Evil Mode

5. Spider-Man: Web Of Shadows

One of the things that annoyed me about playing Bioshock as an evil character was that in the long run, the morally decent option of sparing the Little Sisters ended up rewarding the player more than harvesting them, thus making the choice nothing more than a way to get the worst ending and struggle more along the way.

Therefore it's always refreshing to find games that not only make the prospect of an Evil playthrough tantalizing through their narrative changes but also reward the player for their heinous actions properly, and Spider-Man: Web Of Shadows most definitely does this thanks to the Symbiote powers it doles out to our now unfriendly neighborhood !*$% Peter Parker.

Not only does donning the infamous black Spidey Suit make for huge jump on the cool scale, but being able to let your dark side out via moves that obliterate enemies with huge area of effect attacks, or even grind them into the ground like a skateboard is never a dull moment.

Add to this the choices that see you cheat on MJ, betray the human race to lead the Symbiotes as their new king AND even see the heroes and villains of the game team up to take you down in the ending cutscene - all makes for a delicious power trip so off the wall, it's gutting the game doesn't let you destroy the entirety of Manhattan to ice off the cake.
