    I always wanted a high quality Spiderman game and this is it. Great combat, great characters, great story. This game reminds that spiderman isn't just about the costume, It's also about peter parker's
    humanitarian problems. Gameplay is so satisfying and very suitable for spiderman. Even swinging around is so much fun. 10/10

    + Fantastic graphics animation and voice acting.
    + Swinging is great, though oddly didn't feel as good as the Amazing Spider-Man 2 game. + Not as many quick time events as I was worried they would be. - Though the story is good, it takes a long time to get going. - The game feels kinda like the Batman games only instead

    - Though the story is good, it takes a long time to get going.
    - The game feels kinda like the Batman games only instead this feels like it was made by Ubisoft.
    - Repetitive like a Ubisoft game with lots of similar tasks littered all over the map.
    - Lots of these silly puzzle to do. The Batman games were far better with puzzles.
    - The combat would be amazing if you did it less and the game had more variety.
    - Targeting is a constant pain in the butt during fighting.
    - The game has stealth moments in it and it's pretty terrible.
    = If not for the Sony polish, I'd think this game was made by Ubisoft. It's a great game for focusing on the story and not very fun for going for 100% as it's very repetitive.

    This is a near perfect Spider-Man game for me. The only thing that drags it down for me is the repetitive and over abundant side-missions/mini-missions.

    That aside, the combat system is awesome and feels like the hero himself because of how agile and powerful you can be. You can fully take on endless amounts of enemies without taking a hit if you got the combat system down.

    Next, the web swinging is fully amazing. The cherry on top is that you can see the web attach to physical things giving an actual presence to the world in contrast to certain previous games. Additionally I find it jaw dropping how you can be swinging at street level one moment then transition up hundreds of feet in a matter of seconds; at times I found myself even just swinging around the city aimlessly.

    The story in the game is also a personal one centered around an established Spider-Man and it kept me captivated with where it went.

    A good game but not a great one imo. The story is decent but nothing I'd remember for long. The story could also be a bit longer. The gameplay is a lot of fun and the best part of the game. The collectables are a bit annoying as there are a loooot.

    I didn't really like the game. From the visual and technical side, everything is great. But the gameplay and plot are pretty weak. And most importantly, everything in the game is very secondary and too simple.

    I really enjoyed Spider-Man. I ended up buying the game a year ago but not getting a chance to play it, so when the remastered version came out on PS5 I had to play it.
    The remastered game is pretty especially with the weather effects. The glass buildings are also pretty, it's only the brick buildings that let things down a little.

    The gameplay is very fun. Swinging didn't initially interest me, but once you get used to it, and become optimal, it's really a lot of fun. Also the game allows for fast travelling which helps reduce it getting boring.

    One thing this game made me thing a lot though is how great the Rocksteady Batman Arkham games were. A lot of spider-man fet directly copied, and the combat and gadets did feel like knock offs of the batman games.
    However, the game is still fun despite this I just hope the batman games are revisited on ps5.
    I highly recommend spider-man rematsered if you ahven't played that version. I only had a few crashes playing the game after beating the story and side missions. So no crashes until then.

And if there is more enemies, especially with guns and jetpacks, you have to move very fast. But overall it's great game and Sony showed that exclusive games is their best thing. Expand

The graphics are great for the PS4, the story is gripping and actually elicited an emotional response like a great story should.

    The DLCs are pretty good but not up to the same quality as the main game. Though the game performs very well, it's one of only two games I've ever had hard crash to the PS menu. Easily forgivable for how much I loved this game. This is the closest thing to a perfect game I've ever played.

    Wonderful traversal and combat, silky smooth, beautiful graphics. An entertaining story. Could have just done with a more interactive open world and maybe some mini games to make the game more varied. Once you've completed the story and side challenges, it starts to get a bit repetitive.

    What a year 2018 was for video games.

    This one can be a bit of a grind at times, but incredible gameplay keeps things just fresh enough because it's so satisfying. The re-creation of NYC given to you as an open world is stunning. A solid story. The best thing about this game is that you feel like Spiderman. They absolutely nailed the feeling of swinging through the city.

    Coming from the mid-rated The Amazing Spider-man 2, Insomniac's iteration of Spider-Man feels like the mix of the best parts of other versions of the web-head, and you know right away they made it well. The swinging mechanic feels amazing, u can't get tired of it. Combat feels fluid and dynamic, with a great variety of tools which can fit your style. Just a great Spider-man game.

    However, my biggest gripe with the game is usability. To perfectly dodge, you have to time your dodge with when Spidey's aura around his head turns blue. However, late game and into the DLC the difficulty is ramped up by throwing more and more enemies at you in many waves. But, it also becomes more and more visually chaotic, making it almost impossible to see that blue glow amongst the plethora of rockets, explosions, lasers, electrified ground, etc. meanwhile you're coordinating your own attacks on a room full of enemies. Deaths at this point in the game feel cheap. I got frustrated to the point of deleting the game halfway through the second DLC and watched the rest of the story on YouTube.

    This is it, folks. This game, right here, is my favorite game ever. Only a few other games can come even close to the sheer amount of fun and excitement that this game achieves.

Only a few other games can come even close to the sheer amount of fun and excitement that this game achieves. And to think this game topped my other favorite game ever just a few weeks after I beat the other game (which happened to be Final Fantasy VII Remake)! It is a joy to experience, and makes even the most mundane tasks a notable event.
    STORY:
    We follow a much more experienced Peter Parker; one who has been fighting crime for eight years. The game starts with a mission to finally take down Kingpin, a major crime boss in New York. However, once he is arrested and his organization starts being taken down, a brand new organization with unknown motives move in, and you have to figure out what they want/stop them for good.
    That is all I will get into, since this game deserves to be discovered by itself. The story, quite frankly, is the best Spider-Man story to date. It is so full of little details, twists and turns, amazing character performances, and emotional gut punches that really got to me. Round of applause to everyone involved, you gave us something special. Not to mention Spidey is incredibly relatable and funny. He feels down to earth, like you could get to know him. He's got plenty of quips, and they all at the very least made me smile while playing.
    GRAPHICS/SOUND
    This game looks great. Environments are rich and detailed (with a few minor exceptions); it felt like a fully realized city with a lot in it. Character models and animations are very well done. There were a few times where the faces might look a little off, but that's going to happen almost every time. That soundtrack, man, the soundtrack! It is utter bliss. Usage of the themes is also strategic; when you start swinging and picking up speed, the music will swell, giving an amazing feeling like none other. It can be comparable to going through a launch star in Mario Galaxy. The PS4 might not be powerful enough to render some things like reflections properly, but it's not a big deal. They are coming out with a Remastered version of this game that should fix those small issues. Except for Peter's face, they completely changed it (as of 9/30/2020, if they change it back in the future that will be great), and it doesn't look right! Insomniac, what have you done to my boy?
    GAMEPLAY
    HOO BOY, THIS GAME CONTROLS LIKE A DREAM. Never before have I played a game where moving around the map is as fun as the rest of the game, but Spider-Man does this with the greatest traversal system known to man: Spider-Man's webslinging. It even gets better when you start unlocking new abilities like the trick system, the better zip-to-point launch, the super jump, IT'S ALL SO GOOD!
    There are also some side things to change up the pace, like little science puzzles to play as Peter Parker in the lab, which are neat. There are stealth sections, catching pigeons, waving to people in the city, unlocking new suits and gadgets, and of course, the combat.
    Pure.
    Utter.
    Bliss.
    There are so many options in combat. You got your basic combos and such, but you also got web gadgets, you can web objects and swing them around, you can knock them up in the air, web them, and swing them down to the ground, You've got special suit abilities like the web blossom, which will unleash a bunch of shots of web in all directions, IT'S SO FUN.
    If you pay attention and don't just mindlessly button-mash, you can get some huge combos going. The highest I ever achieved was around 107 hits. Pulling things off like that is a rush that only this game can provide.
    VERDICT
    This game is a product of a group of people who are excited to put everything into this game; there is so much passion and love put into every single aspect that you have to respect this game at the very least. I am so excited to play Spider-Man: Miles Morales when it comes out.
    Insomniac, thank you so much for this game. I love it so much.

    Todos dicen que este juego te hace sentir como Spider-Man, pero yo diría que lo que mejor hace es hacerte sentir como Peter Parker.

    Una de las mejores adaptaciones que ha tenido el personaje, muy por encima del MCU y mejor que varias de las runs que se han visto en el cómic en estos últimos 20 años.

    This game was awesome. Details. Story. Character's. All of it but it felt short to me. I love that there were no microtransactions. Outside the actual story the game felt extremely limited. Kind of wish I could have webbed up civilians.

    I was playing Pillars of Eternity II – a brilliant but quite long game that got me tired by the end. Marvel's Spider-Man came with the rescue mission. It is action-packed game with open world and decent story. It's extremely easy to get engaged into swinging movement above the city streets. A great way to relax after the long day at work.

My wife who has been in New York was surprised by how the city was well made.
    When it comes to the story... it has its moments. And it may com as a surprise that for me, the best moments were closer to the beginning than to the epic climax of the game. I felt more engaged when I had to take a break in fighting crime in order to find a new place to stay after I got kicked from my apartment than when I was fighting 6 super villains at once. During later game scenes I felt like in pumped-up blockbuster with apocalypse on the horizon and dozen of major threats ongoing. And I did not liked that.
    Overall, it is a very good game. I recommend it.

    Great game, this was the first interactive movie I’ve ever played. Quite fun with amazing action scenes and an average story. The game play was something completely different to what I was expecting, swinging around New York was fun but after a while it gets boring.

    There are a lot of suits, skills and movements that are completely useless, honestly you can get by with only two suits
    Great game, this was the first interactive movie I’ve ever played. Quite fun with amazing action scenes and an average story. The game play was something completely different to what I was expecting, swinging around New York was fun but after a while it gets boring.

    There are a lot of suits, skills and movements that are completely useless, honestly you can get by with only two suits and a few skills. Playing as other characters was boring too, I guess that was because none of them had superpowers, also the puzzles were a drag, I just wanted to finish them as quickly as possible in order to continue with the story.

    I think the best DLC was the Turf Wars, and the worst one was Silver Line (I hate when people try to force politics into games).

    In a nutshell it was a fun game.

    One of the best PS4 games, and definitely the best Spider-man game. A game that is easy to platinum and difficult to stop playing, Insomniac delivered an absolute gem.

    AMAZING game that perfectly encapsulates the feel of Peter Parker as well as spiderman.
    The game does have the infamous instant fail stealth missions but nails them perfectly and makes the pace of the game perfect for a superhero game.
    10/10 would buy again. (actually did because my disc drive broke...)

    Muy buen juego, tiene un buena historia, buen gameplay y buenos graficos. Es para mí el mejor juego de superheroes que hay, los juegos de Batman son muy buenos, pero a mí parecer el gameplay de Batman me llegó a aburrir un poco, debido a que siempre era los mismo y no se veía algo espectacular como Spiderman. Un muy muy buen juego.

    This game is probably a 9.5, but I had to round up. It is one of the best games on PS4, and a great single player experience. It has two great things going for it. First it makes you feel like Spider-Man, from the combat to the web swinging, which is all top notch. Second the cut scenes look amazing, and the voice acting is as good as it gets for a video game.

    Non si può dare meno di 9 perché il gioco prende l'essenza di Spiderman e la trasferisce nel joystick. Il gioco raggiunge alti livelli grafici ed è divertente e stimolante, lo consiglio a tutti.

    There are myriad good reasons why Marvel's Spider-Man is the best-selling and highest-rated Spider-Man title in years. While it has a few glaring flaws, they pale in comparison to all of the things the team at Insomniac got right. A well-acted, strong story serves as the backbone for an experience that just plain feels right for Spider-Man, and fans and newcomers alike won't be disappointed by this trip to the Spider-verse.

    This game does for Spider-Man what the Arkham series did for Batman. Immensely satisfying movement system, excellent combat, fast pace, superb visuals and wealth of side activities converge to bring a wonderful experienced, diluted only by some minor missteps in the story and a couple of stealth sequences where you control supporting characters instead of Spidey.
