    However the game isn't perfect, I will review pros and cons of the game:

    Cons: Please note that this is nitpicking...
    - I really wish I could use the touchpad for the spectrometry.
    - Unnecessary QTE, there is a few QTE (not all of them) where you would rather watch the video play out.
    - Some cutscenes have fight scenes in them, it feels unnecessary since that's what the player should do.
    - There is a lot of loading screens, not too long which is ok.

    Pros: This game feels like a love letter.
    + All the boss fights (with the exception of Mr. Negative train fight) are amazing.
    + Great amount of gadgets and fight moves.
    + Story is on point with both Peter and Spidey.
    + Suit option with suit power feels like freedom.
    + Web swinging is perfect. (and the music is a great choice).
    + Ost and sound quality is movie quality.
    + Acting is on point, no cringe.
    + All characters look great.    … Expand

    So far, I've enjoyed the game. Played it only for about 2 hours late last night and have not done a ton of story missions, got far enough in to unlock suit changing and kind of just messed around for a bit so my score may improve.

    The plot is great. Any fan of Spidey will not regret that he has been persuaded to tell this wonderful adventure, which is unusually smooth and thoughtful serves for a real dessert of the greatest personalities of the Marvel universe.
    Skillfully guided and endowed with amazing cutscenes, in a sense, it makes it impossible to break away from side missions.

    Side missions are constructed very decently. There is no such thing as for example in The Witcher 3, but it seems to me that this is not the result of a mistaken idea, or laziness or lack of skills at the creators, but the specifics that the universe of Peter Parker is. This is an action game, not RPG and it's totally understandable for the comic popculture. It is the same story of an unlikely talented young hero who, in an amazing and tireless way, does good in the suburbs of New York, which we all love so much.

    The whole city is big and well constructed. Gameplay and the specifics of rocking on the spider effectively "prevent" the implementation of the main plot. The graphics are prettier than I expected. Photo Mode is an amazing fun, which thanks to the extended and diverse city gives you an unlimited field to show off.

    The game works very smoothly and on my PS4 Pro looks really insanely especially on a 4K TV. My friend played on usual version of PS4 also, and he confirmed that the game is very smooth without any problems.

    I've been waiting for that kind of game my hole life and I didn't get dissapointed.

To the stunning graphics, whether your swinging in the open world or watching cutscenes. This game is stunning. Like I said the game´s combat can get repetitive, not because it´s bad but because the game´s pretty much 85% of it. Thankfully because the combat is so fun you don´t notice until the end. And most boss battles just follows the pattern of dodge boss attack, web up the boss, web-zip to the boss, 4 hit combo the boss and rince and repeat. But really that´s all I can fault the game with.

This is as close as you can get to feeling like the Amazing Spiderman. There's a true sense of speed and momentum you get while swinging through the streets of New York. It's only amplified by the fantastic musical score that starts as soon as you leap into the air and begin slinging webs. This personally, is my favorite aspect of the game. Every animation is graceful and fluid, and it can become a very fun skill to master.

    The combat is equally impactful and gratifying. Spidey can leap, and dodge very similar to the Arkham Knight series. But nothing feels outplayed or repetitive. The combat can be very challenging also. Jumping in the fray with 10+ enemies can prove to be very risky, and takes a keen reaction to your Spider-Senses to stay alive. Spidey can only take limited hits, and isn't a huge punching bag like Bruce Wayne can be. This satisfying difficulty is managed by the amount of gadgets you have at your disposal. The gadgets include everything from regular webs, to automated combat assisted spider drones. It all fits very well to the universe, and everything has a sense of believability to it.

    I haven't completed the main story yet, as there's no limit to the fun you can have when just running around New York, collecting backpacks, saving civilians, and fighting petty crime. But through the amount of story I've experience, everything seems top notch. The voice acting is great, with maybe a few line "hic-ups" here and there, but nothing that will ever make you cringe. You feel a real sense of connection to Peter Parker and his life situations, as Pete is always portrayed as a simple guy trying to make ends meet. He suffers with relationships problems, the same as modern day people would, through texts and social media for example. Every character is unique, and leaves you wanting to find out more to their own personal story.

    I couldn't have dreamed of a better Spider-Man gaming experience. Insomniac poured every ounce of love and respect into one of the most beloved super heroes of all time. If you're a gamer, comic, Marvel, and especially a Spider-Man fan, you owe it to yourself to buy this game. You will not be disappointed.

    This game is near perfect. The story was really well done and has a great ending. The combat and swinging mechanics are the best out of any Spider-Man game yet. There are 28 different suits to pick, tons of Easter eggs, great Villains, a leveling system and skill trees. This game really has it all. If you are a Spider-Man fan the wait is finally over. This is the best Spidey game ever.

    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.
