|gameinfo          = Ultimate Spider-Man is a video game based on the comic book of the same name by Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley. The game was released for most sixth generation consoles, including PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube, Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance, and Microsoft Windows, as well as a mobile phone version. Treyarch, who made the console games based on the Spider-Man movies, developed the console game, while Vicarious Visions developed the Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance versions, and Beenox ported the Microsoft Windows version from the consoles.
|gameinfo          = Based on the comic book of the same name, Ultimate Spider-Man lets you play as either the hero Spider-Man or his arch-nemesis, Venom.  Use the unique combat techniques of either Spider-Man or Venom to battle a host of  Spider-Man characters. Artistic contributions by the creators of the series make for an authentic Spider-Man experience.<br />
Stylistically, it differs from its predecessor, Spider-Man 2, in that it employs what has been dubbed, "Comic Inking Animation technology," a form of cel shading intended to simulate the appearance of a comic-book.

|Comments=When using hardware mode, there are missing and flickering textures, so software mode must be used. The game also uses up quite a bit of RAM, causing GSdx out of memory texturing issues leading to an eventual CTD. This will happen even if PCSX2 has been manually patched to utilize up to 4 GB of RAM. To fix this, I used Razer Cortex to shut down unneeded background processes to free up as much RAM as possible and I haven't had a crash since. There's also a minor glitch where the eyes on Spider-Man's mask are yellow or blue in color, which I haven't found a fix for. Other than that, the game ran at a consistent 60 FPS with mVU Flag Hack, MTVU, and EE Cylcerate at 2 along with the standard speedhacks.

==Trivia==
* Original names: '''アルティメットスパイダーマン''' (SLPM-66404)
* The game sets to widescreen when it is prompted by the 16:9 ratio setting in the PS2 internal menu (the game does not have a real built-in widescreen, the image will be stretched)
