Get some time to get used to the web swing mechanics, but very fluid after a couple of hours. The combat quick, agile at the same time, and very satisfying when you get a finisher move. The city of New York is alive, civilian driving, celebrating when you pass next to them and doing an activity like doing yoga, dancing and even playing basketball. The music is recognizable, but with the own twist of the composer from insomniac. The graphics are smooth and beautiful nothing wrong to say about that. Insomniac just did the Holy Grail of the superhero genre of game. The storytelling of resistance, the gameplay of sunset overdrive and the humour of Ratchet and Clank have prepared Insomniac games to create the greatest Spider-Man game. It an absolute buy for every fan of the web-swinger and for every ps4 owner. (sorry Xbox players)
    Final word: play this game you won't regret it!

    Spider-Man is a character I have always wanted to like but I have always failed to connect with, that was until I played the new PS4 game released just last week.

    The music is a touch on the bland MCU fare, where it could be replaced with nearly any other score.
    Story, now this is where the game wins me over completely. It is rare in any medium that characters feel like real people and even rarer still in a video game, the team who scripted, voiced, performed and animated these characters manage to bring such life into their characters and moments that bring you into their world. There were several moments toward the end that created genuine emotional responses that I am man enough to admit involved some wettening of the eyes.

    TLDR: If you have a PS4 buy Spider-Man, if you don't have a PS4 buy a PS4 and Spider-Man.    … Expand

The voice acting and performances from the cast as well are fantastic and help strengthen the great writing even more. While the story includes many familiar characters, it tells a new Spider-Man story that is not afraid to take the story to different places and introduce new characters that have not been in any Spider-Man movies yet. The weakest aspect of the game is definitely the side content in the open world. The side missions and challenges can get repetitive sometimes but they are still fun to do as the gameplay is solid. Overall the game is fantastic and lives up to the hype. It is a game that not only Spider-Man and superhero fans can enjoy, but gamers in general as both the gameplay and storytelling are top notch.… Expand

    Spider-Man is by no means a perfect game, but it is a really really good game and is without a doubt the best Spider-Man game we've ever had by a long shot. This is a MUST BUY for every PS4 owner!

This is a MUST BUY for every PS4 owner!

    Pros:
    - Traversal - the make or break of any Spider-Man game and I can confidently say that Insomniac got the feeling of Spider-Man down in this game. It is simple enough for anyone to just pick up and try, but has enough nuance to it for seasoned gamers to feeling challenged in how to efficiently swing around. I probably spent more time just swinging around than the actual missions because it just feels oh so good!
    - Combat - combat truly feels like Spider-Man as the 'acrobatic improvisor". The mechanics are similar to the Batman Arkham games, but it feels like Spider-Man with the way that he attacks, dodges, webs, and zips around a group of enemies. The action sequences are done well enough where it feels like a battle you'd find in a movie.
    - Graphics - to put it simply, this game is just beautiful. We are now getting to the point of this generation's lifecycle where developers have figured out how to maximize the potential power from the PS4 and this game shows it.
    - Story - this felt like a Spider-Man story without retelling the same old story we've heard in the past in different medias. The entire story from beginning to end just felt so cinematic like I was living out an epic Spider-Man movie and not just playing a game
    - Map - This Manhattan may be the best Manhattan map we've had in a video game. It is not a 1:1 scale or exactly identical to Manhattan, but it is done well enough and truly feels like Manhattan. Real life locations are "where they're supposed to be" even if they're not in the exact location
    - Easter Eggs - Spider-Man has 50+ years of lore and Insomniac Games seems to have placed easter eggs everywhere in this game! From the characters you interact with, the collectibles, and even random landmarks around the map. This place is filled with easter eggs!
    - Photo Mode - I've never really cared much about photo modes in other games, but being Spider-Man and the beauty of the character and the map got me really into this. I've spent at least a quarter of my play time just messing with photo mode. I love trying to recreate comic book covers, movie posters, and other iconic Spider-Man poses all over Manhattan

    Cons (if I have to nitpick)
    - Side Missions & collectibles - all very vanilla for an open world game and nothing you haven't already done in previous sandbox games.
    - Variations of enemies - this isn't a knock on Insomniac but maybe just the lore of Spider-Man prevented them from having lots of a wide variations of enemies like we get in God of War.
    - Difficulty - I wish the game was a little more hard. I played it through on the most difficult setting and it was still relatively easy compared to other games. I died many times but I also breezed through many missions without dying once.    … Expand

    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.
