Need to wind down from a tough week? Supertrailer has got you covered! Sit back and relax as this this week's trailer soaks up all the drama…
Peter Parker is about to turn 50 and star in a mega-budget film reboot and game tie-in, so we can't stop thinking about how spectacular, sensational and amazing Spider-Man can be. After starring in games since the Atari, he's consistently starred in some of the best comic book games in history (ignoring a certain bat-themed character). Why does the webbed wonder work so well in games? We've got at least seven reasons...
We're currently trapped in a bit of a Spider-Man media frenzy, but what's so great about the amazing one? Well, for starters he's starred in tons of memorable games. Read on as we rank his ten best video game adventures...

Whether
they’ve advanced menacingly toward our camera lenses, hidden their faces when
we look at them or just sort of hovered aimlessly, ghosts have been a semi-constant
threat in videogames almost since the medium was invented. One of the great
things about games, however, is that they’re a way to explore unusual

Game music has been a passion of ours roughly since, oh,
1985, but in the past 10 years, it’s come to mean something more. Don’t get us
wrong, we still love the beepatronic music of the 8- and 16-bit periods (and
the wave of chiptune artists it inspired), but the past decade has also seen

influential in bringing strange and terrifying new musical styles to gamers’
ears – and in the interest of making this our most self-indulgent Top 7 since that other one, we’ve
asked a handful of our editors to explain what made each one important to them
personally...
