    Insomniac games is the best studio that made a Spider-Man video game. They gave their heart and souls in making of this masterpiece. I love every single thing of it. The graphics the game-play and the story. I want more Spider-Man.

    Gameplay:8/10 combos are fun, steal mission's add variety into the game but I can't help but feel there could be more nonetheless the gameplay is solid.

    Ultimately, the good outweighs the bad, and we are left with an adventure worthy of any Spider-fan's time--if not all the hyperbole.

The city looks amazing and feels quite alive, the graphics are spectacular (even the puddles for all the idiots who got enraged by screenshots that clearly were taken during different times of day), and the controls and movement feel sooooo fluid. Web slinging around the city is so engaging and surprisingly nuanced with the different moves and web launches you can do. The best aspect for me, however, is the combat. It. Is. So. Much. Fun. Once you get used to it and unlock some new moves the combat is highly addictive! I have so much fun swinging around waiting to get a notification of any crime happening nearby and excitedly rush in to beat the crud out of the scumbags haha.

    I'd say the biggest flaw in the game is the typical open-world mechanics in place. ''Go here to reveal this section of the map'', which in turn reveals a bunch of pretty generic missions and collect-a-thon type objectives, some of which are pretty boring. Rinse and repeat. The Mary-Jane missions are also mind numbingly easy and beige. Thankfully the overall gameplay is fun enough that you actually end up doing them all just because the swinging and fighting are super addictive. The story is also surprisingly good with some actual emotional highs and lows that are really effective in making you feel connected to the world, story and characters. The voice acting is a big part of this being true as it's mostly spot-on and convincing especially with the lifelike facial animations! Combine all of that with a pretty robust leveling system, which includes the usual skill-tree type progression along with a large selection of different spidey suits, each with their own unique ''ultimate'' power, perk slots on those very same suits and various unlockeable gadgets and gizmos which can also be individually upgraded to increase damage or area of effect etc etc. All-in-all there's lots to sink your teeth into if the game pleases you!

    Verdict: This is a really fun open-world beat-em-up style game with super slick controls, animations and visuals with a great story on top of it all. If you don't mind some occasionally repetitive ''side-missions'' then there's a lot of fun to be had here whether or not you're a Marvel/Spiderman fan with lots of content to get through and unlock. Check it out!

    A solid superhero game, with great graphics, good game-play and a predictable yet enjoyable story. Not really much more needs to be said. Unfortunately there was nothing about the game that blew me away. Everything felt safe to a degree but nothing blew me away. Still I think this is a must buy for Spider-Man fans and yes I'm a huge Spider-Man fan/

    Marvel’s Spiderman PS4 is by far one of the best games of 2018, and it is the best choice for all action and sci-fi fans to enjoy.

I have recently been playing games like 2K19, GTA V, and Battlefront, so getting to play a game like this was a nice refresher from the mass online multiplayer games which are normally more my style. Spiderman PS4 is an extremely immersive game. Aside from the engrossing narrative is an excellent set of web swinging mechanics, which combined with fun gadgets and plenty of puns, makes for great action in both the more open missions and in the quiet, confined corridors of tense sequences. The mechanics are truly great in this game, it is incredibly addicting to just swing around the city of New York for hours and with the combat system, there is a way to make each encounter with criminals unique. I probably can’t explain how many times I got goosebumps just from either watching Spiderman perform some spectacular feat or performing it myself, and the ending is so emotionally powerful it would make even non-marvel fans tear up. As far as pricing goes it is the same as pretty much any other current game at $50-$60, without deals or discounts applied, however I think that this game is worth it just because the sheer quality of content and the experience that you will get while playing. The deluxe version of this game is priced at $80, but before you get disgusted it includes three DLC chapters. These aren’t just random side missions and fillers they are all full stories almost like three additional games for just $30 extra. Spiderman PS4 is a game that I highly recommend to everyone even if you aren’t the biggest marvel fan or caught up with all the lore. It is worth every penny and is the best game released in 2018.

    We got better Spider-Man games in the past like Web of Shadows and Shattered Dimensions. The only good part of the game is the story and some graphic techniques..

    The story is amazing. It is the only thing that holds the game together for me. I like how they did with the characters that I know as a fan. But Silver Sable parts need to work out because she is very bipolar in this game.

    The story is amazing. It is the only thing that holds the game together for me. I like how they did with the characters that I know as a fan. But Silver Sable parts need to work out because she is very bipolar in this game. The DLC 3 sucks due to the boss and the story that the marketing tried to tell us. the whole "fool me once, shame on me, But fool me twice thing" with the two villain's plans, never good idea.

    But I'm not a fan of how some of them looked including Peter, Aunt May, and Mary Jane. But Miles is okay in my book for some reason that I don't know why. Peter is ugly looking. Aunt May is weird looking. Mary Jane isn't sexy. She is too cute for her damn job. Mary need to be more sexy, but have that independence in the game.

    The swing is okay. It is not amazing like everyone is saying. It is a water down version of Web of Shadows swing stuff. Web of Shadows's swing stuff is more faster and hard to master. But I mastered the swing during the tutorial.

    The combat is a downgrade from what we had. We can't fight on walls and run down them. Who's idea was that to downgrade that? I don't like that. When someone pointed that out, It ruined the game for me. My first score for the game was a 8. but every time that I found something out with the game.

    Then my favorite part to talk about - the music. The music is not bad. but not good for a Spider-Man game. It feels like it is from Avengers. It doesn't makes me feel like I am Spider-Man. Spider-Verse Score makes me feel like I am Spider-Man. Danny the composer for that film used the same techniques as this composer used. So that drives me crazy that one composer did a fresh take on something old and grey.

    Again, the story is the only thing that holds up for the game.

    Spider-Man for PS4 was a good time for me but not a must-play by any means. By the time I'd finished the DLC, I was beyond ready for it to end in spite of hardly touching its side-content. I had long-since zoned-out and been listening to podcasts while I played....

    It almost seems like a meme at this point but the combat 100% is derived from Batman Arkham. It offers enough changes and feels different enough to justify its existence but it is still derivative nonetheless. All-in-all, it feels a lot faster and appropriately lets you zip between enemies, giving it its own unique flavor. The stealth sections are here too and don't overstay their welcome but feel a little under-cooked. You also play as 2 other characters for a couple of sections but these are pretty groan-worthy, shoehorning in scripted stealth sequences where you're not able to make choices in how you approach problems.

    While the combat is Arkham, the overall structure leans more toward the Ubisoft-open-world model, with map-towers, crimes, collectibles, etc. If it resembles one of the Batmans in particular, it would be Arkham Knight for this exact reason, which most people had a more mixed response as a result. There's a million icons on your map and you could easily double your time if you engage with all of this stuff. It's tragically not that compelling though, and the main quest and especially the DLC have a lot of this fluff in them as well. Spider-Man's bag of tricks runs out reasonably quickly, turning it into a string of combat-enounters, chase sequences, cutscenes, hacking minigames, etc. It never dwells on anything too long but very few sequences in this game left a lasting impression. Thankfully, around 2/3 of the way through, NYC becomes overrun with crime and at this point, the campaign and open-world become a lot more interesting but I couldn't help wishing this had happened much earlier in the game. This is something the Batman games did at the start of their games, to great effect.

    The most disappointing thing about Spider-Man is its lackluster level design. Insomniac has crafted some of the best levels in gaming history with Spyro and Ratchet & Clank but here, they've shackled themselves to a realistic map of NYC that just isn't very interesting to explore. In spite of how much the visuals and detail have been improved in this entry, it's still no more interesting to explore than it was on the PS2. The real shame here is that the Arkham games actually have great level-design! In contriving various video-gamey settings like a city-turned-prison or snow-storm, the Batman games were able to have settings that were more interesting to explore and better lent themselves to a video game. This drove me to do every sidequest and find every riddler trophy throughout the whole series. Spider-Man, however, just has a bunch of generic buildings and pedestrians walking around everywhere. Ironically, the most interesting areas of the game are when it deviates from the open world and copies ideas outright from Batman with a great prison level and some dream levels that are a little to close to Batman for comfort.

    To sum up, the combat is good but derivative, the story is great, the mission variety is lacking but improves toward the end, and the side content and DLC fail to make compelling cases for their existences. To me, it's the definition of solid but nothing special. It might seem like I've made too many comparisons to Batman but Spider-Man is absolutely shameless in the way it borrows ideas and much of the game's world and structure is objectively worse than how Arkham City handled things 7 years earlier. Spider-man PS4 is significant to me in that it's where Insomniac has gone from being a leader to a follower. It's a very good game, especially if you're a Spider-fan but it fails to offer anything new or exceptional to gaming as a whole.

    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.
