Hey there, webheads! You're about to embark on a nostalgia trip back to the streets of digital New York with none other than our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. The year is 2004—flip phones are all the rage, Usher's "Yeah!" is blaring on every radio station, and gamers everywhere are getting their hands sticky with "Spider-Man 2", one unforgettable video game.

Gaming in 2004 had a particular spark to it. Amidst that sparkle was an action-packed adventure swinging through right into our living room consoles! So what sort of news tidbits can still tickle our Spidey senses regarding this classic? Well, for starters:
