I have webs in my brain (well, more than usual). Insomniac’s new Spider-Man game comes out on September 7 for PlayStation 4. I reviewed it earlier this week, and I love it. A couple of week’s ago, I wrote about one my favorite games from Spidey’s past, 2000’s Spider-Man for the first PlayStation.

Today, I want to talk about a Spider-Man game that is not as good those two, but it’s plenty interesting. I’m talking about Spider-Man and Venom: Maximum Carnage, which came out in 1994 for Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis.
