In this game, you must play as Spider-man and/or Venom and defeat the psychotic Carnage and his band of super villains. Along the way, you get help from characters such as Captain America and Firestar. The graphics are great and the moving comic strips pull the story along in a flowing manner. A must have for any Spider-man or Marvel fan.

BAsically this game is just a sidescroller. But it's the best damn sidescroller you're gonna play. Starring Spider-Man, and allowing you to be Venom, you can absolutely destroy all opposition and swing from webs. (Tres Cool) The only downside is it's a looong game and without a save feature or passwords you have to sit down in one marathon session to ever beat the game. Very rewarding though. I gotta say this is my favourite game of all time.
Best Deals for Spider-Man / Venom: Maximum Carnage
When you look at the painstakingly long list of comic licensed games that were released for the 16-bit systems of years ago, most were basically just walk from left to right while beating up countless generic villians in a game which lacks any kind of spirit or feel of the comic it is based from and is pretty much Streets of Rage with a comic license attached to it (notably most of which were published by Acclaim or one of their other publishing divisions). Maximum Carnage is based on the mid-nineties massive event that took place in the Spider-Man comics in which Spidey had to team up with Venom to take on Carnage in a ravaged New York. In the game, you can play as Spidey or Venom, and you pretty much do all as I described above, and thats about it. Almost none of these games had any kind of save feature, and Maximum Carnage is one of these games, and it is a painstakingly long game to finish and does offer some high difficulty. Maximum Carnage's few saving graces are the game's music provided by Green Jelly (although it sounds a bit generic at times considering the Genesis didn't have the best soundchip imaginable) and the fluid and colorful graphics. There are a few guest appearances from other heroes (Firestar, Captain America) and you've got some tough villians in Carnage, Shreik, Doppleganger, and Demogoblin, but other than that Maximum Carnage is only a bit better than the heap of comic licensed 16-bit beat 'em ups.
