Of every superhero, Spider-Man has probably not only been in the most games to date, but also the most good games to date. Great Spider-Man games date all the way back to the Sega Genesis, proceeding onto the PS1 generation—which is where they really started to come into their own—and the generations hence.
That said, while most of the Spider-Man games themselves have been fantastic, the one other outstanding quality they all seem to share in common is that they all have great music. I don't know why this is, precisely, but I would imagine it's because Spider-Man himself evokes a sense of enthusiasm and adventure, which makes it easy to compose fun, upbeat music for his games.
Below are just some of the tracks I've enjoyed from the Spider-Man games I've played. There are a lot more, of course, but these are the ones I seem to remember most fondly.
Spider-Man and the X-Men in: Arcade's Revenge - Spider-Man:
Spider-Man and Venom: Separation Anxiety:
Spider-Man (PC/PS1/N64/Dreamcast) - Theme Song Remix:
Marvel vs. Capcom 3 - Spider-Man:

Marvel Pinball - Spider-Man Table:
