    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had high hopes for this game. I played the remaster on PC and I loved the game. Completed the main story and the 3 DLCs 100 % in about 35-40 hours. I still haven't done a new game plus yet so maybe I will do that someday. The only 2 things I can put my finger on are the side content and the stealth missions. The side content can sometimes be tedious and is sometimes required to progress in both story and the power of your web shooters. The stealth missions are slow and 9/10 is not necessary. I kinda wish insomniac found another way to progress the story while using the character we all played the Game for. Spiderman. because in the stealth mission, you are forced to use MJ and Miles to progress. Its not a deal breaker. But it can get annoying :D… Expand

    This game was practically perfect. It starts off strong and ends strong. The gameplay is fun and fluent, with a variety of different attack methods, the graphics and visuals are amazing, the story is awesome and will keep you on the edge of your seat, and the music is good as well. Can't wait for Spiderman 2!

    El juego tiene un buen gameplay, cinematicas buenas y referencias bien ejecutadas.

    Marvel's Spiderman logro incluir a varios villanos sin necesidad de alargar el juego.

    9/10 Ya que todo lo bueno de un juego, lo tiene. Uno de los mejores videojuegos de marvel (Si no el mejor)

    This was the best game of 2018. The action is smooth, you feel like spider man when he swings and fights, and it's the best story games I have ever played. This should have won GOTY 2018 but lost to GOW(2018) A very deserving game in its own right but this game just was a lot more fun to me.

    Spider-Man perfectly translates the comic book character's iconic powers to the videogame format: swinging around Manhattan feels extremely fluid and intuitive, and during battle the free-flow combination of ground and aerial combos, web shooting, throwing, dodging and counter-attacking grants the player an impressive strategic freedom. The fluid animations allow for smooth, malleable combos, chaining wide varieties of attacks together, as the webs allow your surroundings to become an active element of combat thanks to deeply rewarding environmental interactions. Regrettably, the game's various gadgets and power-ups unlocked throughout the adventure are mere extensions of already-established powers or provide extremely minor changes to combat's flow. Because of this, as great as it is, combat is stagnant and starts to feel repetitive towards the end of the campaign. The game world does an amazing job at recontextualizing the iconic characters and villains, establishing a new spider-man universe through both the main story and optional content: collectibles and side-quest might feel redundant at times, but do a great job at exploring the background of this peter parker and delineate this world's history, just as the crimes throughout the city, although a little repetitive and overly present, immerse the player in the role of super-hero. The story stays beautifully true to the spirit of the character, merging peter parker and spider-man's lives to craft an emotional story about hope and selflessness that involves both worlds and their intertwining struggles, with the player often taking control of the non-human characters to expand on the setting and immerse the player in the narrative. Alas, from a gameplay standpoint these segments are tremendously bland and simplistic, interrupting the experience's flow with abysmally tedious stealth sections. They are the game's weakest parts alongside boss fights: easy, repetitive and formulaic, only the last ones become decently layered and challenging enough to be engaging.    … Expand

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    I recently had the chance to play "Marvel's Spider-Man" and I have to say, it truly made me feel like I was the web-slinging superhero. The graphics are stunning and the gameplay is smooth and immersive.

    One of the things I really appreciated about the game was the attention to detail. From the character models and their movements, to the city itself, everything felt authentic and true to the Spider-Man universe. The story was also well-written and kept me engaged throughout.

    But what really made me feel like Spider-Man was the web-slinging mechanic. It was so much fun swinging through the city and pulling off acrobatic moves as I chased down villains. The sense of freedom and movement was unparalleled and made me feel like I really was the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

    Overall, "Marvel's Spider-Man" is a fantastic game that successfully captures the essence of what it feels like to be Spider-Man. If you're a fan of the superhero or just looking for a fun and immersive gaming experience, I highly recommend giving it a try.    … Expand

    Side quests are almost same. The story is in the typical superhero genre and doesn't have any surprises. However, the combat system is very smooth, and the character creation is more interesting.

    Well I wrote a review and it got censored so...

    PS5 version review: 8, good spider-man game, Manhattan is visually impressive at a distance, but has problems that all open-world games seem to have. NPC pedestrians look awful up close, and there is no game that has done that effectively except for MAYBE (a PC supercomputer running Cyberpunk 2077 with a million mods & maxed out visually)    Well I wrote a review and it got censored so...

    The base game seems short, but you get Miles Morales + all of Spider-Man's DLC included - the latter being far more interesting content.

    Cons: propaganda inciting eco-terrorism in Harry Oswald's mission chain, and virtue signalling to get certain people to buy your game.    … Expand

    Marvels Spider Man is a great project from Sony. starting from a good fight and ending with an excellent plot. And so, in order. Let's start with the pros. The game has excellent graphics with detailed textures. also the game is excellent from the technical side. there have never been crashes, bugs, flaws. The game has a great storyline with chic villains. for all the time the plot never bothers, constantly keeps in intrigue and pleasure. the plot is not drawn out, it takes an average of 20 hours without taking into account side activities. And here, as for me, the main plus of the game: a masterpiece of combat. combat never gets boring, and destroying opponents is a pleasure, you fly on the web, grab some things, throw at enemies, shoot at them .. you can do this endlessly. The combat in the game is just 10/10. also in the game is a very interesting, exciting platinum. the game is so good that even non-spiderman or marvel fans will like it. and a couple more pluses: great characters, no microtransactions in the game, flying around the city on a web is just gorgeous, interesting missions, an interesting climax of the game, gorgeous soundtracks, an impressive ending. Now to the cons: the city of New York does not feel alive, everything happens in the city, everything is implausible, the characters who walk around the city seem to be inanimate, boring additional tasks and additions, despite the fact that the dlc for the game is boring, they still sell for $ 20 , all dls to spider man, I can rate 5/10. You can try to pass them by buying only the goty edition. Overall I give the game an 8/10.Great project from sony. I recommend everyone to take a look. /Rus:
    Marvels Spider Man является великолепным проектом от Sony. начиная от хорошей боевки и заканчивая отличным сюжетом.и так, по порядку. начнем с плюсов.В игре есть отличная графика с проработанными текстурами. также игра отличная с технической части. ни разу не наблюдалось вылетов, багов, недоработок. В игре великолепный сюжет с шикарными злодеями. за все время сюжет ни разу не надоедает, постоянно держит в интриге и удовольствии. сюжет не затянутый, походится в среднем за 20 часов без учета побочных активностей. И вот, как по мне главный плюс игры: шедевральная боевка. боевка ни разу не надоедает, и уничтожать противников одно удовольствие, летаешь на паутине, хватаешь какие нибудь вещи, метаешь во врагов, стреляешь в них.. так можно бесконечно. боевка в игре просто на 10/10. также в игре очень интересное, увлекательное передвижение по городу:летаешь на паутине, хватаешь какие нибудь вещи, метаешь во врагов, стреляешь в них.. так можно бесконечно. боевка в игре просто на 10/10. также в игре очень интересная, увлекательная платина. игра настолько хорошая что она понравится даже не фанатам человека паука или марвел. и ещё пара плюсов: отличные персонажи, в игре нету микротранзакций, летать на паутине по городу просто шикарно, интересные миссии, интересная кульминация игры, шикарные саундтреки, впечатляющий финал. Теперь к минусам: город Нью Йорк не ощущается живым, в городе все происходит все неправдоподобно, персонажи которые ходят по городу будто неживые, скучные доп.задания и дополнения, не смотря на то что dlc к игре скучные, так их ещё продають по 20$,все длс к человеку пауку я могу оценить на 5/10. Можно попробовать их пройти купив только goty издание. в целом игре ставлю 8/10. Великолепный проект от sony. Всем рекомендую ознакомиться    … Expand

    This game was robbed of the 2018 GOTY.
    This is the best superhero game ever, everything you do as Spider-Man feels great, the swinging, the combat, even the jokes are somewhat funny. The only thing dragging this game down are the poorly made puzzles, and the sections where you have to play as MJ and Miles.

    The most generic and boring AAA Sony game of 2010's. Outdated open world structure, primitive and short plot, followed by lazily made side quests, (mostly) unlikable characters with repetitive boring fights. I'd prefer to play Batman: Arkham Knight any day instead of this one.

    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.
