I have an interesting story with this short lived Spider-Man series. My parents took me to a game store. I ended up going home with both of them for Sega Genesis. The first one, Spider-Man and Venom: Maximum Carnage was way better. You start out as Spider-Man. But a few levels in you now get the option to play as Venom. Personally I was more of a Venom player in this. It's based on the comic book story of the same name. The duo wants to stop Carnage. Still one of Carnage's best video game appearances to date. You also pick up icons that's other heroes that helps you out to a degree. This is a difficult licensed beat em up that's a lot of fun to play. The soundtrack with the sound effects amazing stuff. Forget the SNES version was published by LJN. This was among the best 90s Spider-Man games. This easily rivals the likes of the SNES Batman Returns game to a degree. I have a lot of memories playing this as a kid. I would love this Spider-Man game gets onto GOG in the near future.

Onimusha: Blade WarriorsOnimusha Blade Warriors is a multiplayer fighting game based on the first two games of the Onimusha series. Familiar elements taking from the Onimusha games include the medieval Japanese settings, the characters, items, and the ability to absorb souls in order to perform a magical attack. Fourteen characters are available initially, but a total of twenty-four can be unlocked over the course of play, including long-time Capcom superstars Mega Man and Zero. With the addition of items and weapons strewn around the battle field which characters can pick up to aid in battle, gameplay is aptly compared to one of Capcom's other fighting franchises, Power Stone.
