The Spider-Man movie franchise may have seen better days, but for quite some time now the games have been really good. While the quality may have been slipping over the last few, Beenox are now at the helm and it looks like they intend to bring Spider-man swinging back to the forefront of gaming. Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions is due for release at the end of the year and while its story may be hard for some to understand (a mysterious artifact causes disruptions in reality causing Spider-Man to travel between alternate dimensions) the concept behind the game is simple... Bring several of the varied Spider-Man universes together into a single game. Shattered Dimensions will feature no less than four versions of everyones favourite arachnid loving superhero and with so many choices its hard to predict exactly which version will appear. Beenox publicly announced the first two dimensions as the Amazing Spider-Man (the familiar red and blue suited Spider-man we all know and love) and Spider-Man Noir (think Rorschach from Watchmen but with the abilities of a spider). While they've attempted to remain tight lipped about the remaining two the third dimension has leaked and turns out to be Spider-Man 2099 (what could be the strangest looking Spider-Man ever). Each different dimension will have its own look, feel and general style with Amazing Spider-man taking the cartoon look and feel and Spider-Man Noir looking more like Batman: Arkham Asylum. Below is the trailer for Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, which should hit shelves in September.
