Blame the movies. After SM2 for the PS1 hit, the movies started to get released and SM games after have been tied in to each one. I bet this has been mandated by Marvel as it does make sense from a marketing stand point. Unforutnetly Activision hasnt made any comic based SM games with the exception of Ultimate Spider-man, which was good. But its going to be a few years till a new SM movie comes out. Lets all hope they create a comic based game in the meantimeI'm wondering how come they stopped making sequels to the PS1 games. Spider-man was still considered a criminal at the end of Enter Electro because the Daily Bugle said Thor saved the day and there will still villains they haven't used.
I wouldn't mind a sequel.
