Story
The intro video to Spider says this: Dr Kelly has just started an experiment. He attaches a spider's legs, then proceeds to transfer his thoughts into it. It is a success: the entire spider reacts. He seems to be able to see from the spider's perspective. However, MicroTech is secretly watching him, and MicroTech's leader, simply a brain in a jar, wants the technology. He either does not want to pay a lot of money for it, or is afraid Dr Kelly will sell it to another party, the former most likely. So he sends his best agents, a woman with special glasses of some sort and a man wearing sunglasses. The pair manage to sneak into Nanotechnology and enter his lab. Dr Kelly sees the gun the man is holding and proceeds to shutdown the experiment. The man starts shooting up the lab. Unfortunately, he accidentally shoots Dr Kelly, seriously wounding him. The woman stops him. The equipment is severely damaged before the shutdown could complete and is unable to disconnect Dr Kelly's connection to the spider, and Dr Kelly is seemingly electrocuted and collapses. The woman tries to remove the transmitter, but since the connection is still ongoing, it cannot be removed. So they proceed to kidnap the unconscious Dr Kelly and steal a case belonging to him, all awhile unaware that Dr Kelly's consciousness is being transmitted to the spider. So the spider (essentially now Dr Kelly) proceeds to follow the pair, in an effort to get his human body back. However, many strange creatures and obstacles stand in his way. And so, he must fight his way through in order to get his body back.

Famous quotes containing the word story:
“Mr. Wiggam, I want you to change the policy of The Clarion. I want you to write a story I should have written myself long ago. I want you to tell the people of San Francisco that no city can exist without law and order. Write a story about that flag, write about what verifies and brings a promise of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. There are some people in this town who don’t seem to know that. Let The Clarion tell them.”
—Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
“When a husband’s story is believed, he begins to suspect his wife.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“The story of Americans is the story of arrested metamorphoses. Those who achieve success come to a halt and accept themselves as they are. Those who fail become resigned and accept themselves as they are.”
—Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978)
