    Начну с минусов. Игра попилена на DLC ещё до выхода. Выложил фулл-прайс за коробку (в СНГ цены не скейлятся, любая новая игра стоит 4500)? А как насчёт выложить ещё 1300 за 3 заботливо вырезанных ещё до релиза больших куска сюжета? Это раз. Такие игры должны умереть.

    4. Боссы все одинаково запинываются (и от спешки на тебя даже их скидывают по 2, видимо, 1+1). Даже на первой Playstation в Spiderman 1 и 2 было больше вариативности и оригинальности.

    В целом игра крутая и кинематографичная, с неплохим сюжетом, но всё равно какое-то неприятное послевкусие. То ли от ужасной русской озвучки, то ли от пары очень едких капелек повестки. И да, азиат и белая женщина просто выморозили. Ужасные два персонажа.    … Expand

    This generation has been piss poor for Super Hero games, thank you to PlayStation for bringing the only two and them both being masterpieces. Spiderman and Infamous SS are literally the only good super hero games of the generation. Spiderman from the legendary Insomniac games studios is by far the best Spiderman game in history, even surpassing the excellent Spiderman 2 when it launched.This generation has been piss poor for Super Hero games, thank you to PlayStation for bringing the only two and them both being masterpieces.

Almost Everything is perfect , the web swinging is so fun I didnt even fast travel once until 50 hours into the game. The combat is a ballet if power and destruction, that has a real skill to mastering it. There is puzzles that I hated with a passion but are completely skip-able, why have slow boring puzzles in an awesome action games anyway, but whatever. Also there is some out of place stealth that I didnt like, but was sort of necessary for the supporting character.… Expand

    Amazing overall game and story, really well written characters, a well lived-in open world map. The combat, even though a little ripped off of the Batman Arkham games, brings some new elements to it and feels very smooth and enjoyable. Cons are the side content (except for side quests) that are sometimes repetitive and uninteresting I feel.

However, even if it feels like you fought the same battle 100 times, it’s still fun... and you can’t beat the traversal feels swinging in New York City!… Expand

    This game was pure fun, and I'm not necessarily a fan of Spidey. Most of what I feel has been said already, but I'll hit some of my most though-of points.

Most of what I feel has been said already, but I'll hit some of my most though-of points.

    Good: The traversal system. There's a bit of a learning curve (and it's true of the various combat stages, too), but the ability to sling and swing through the streets of Manhattan is so addictive, you'll find it difficult to employ the "fast travel" function once it unlocks.

    Good: Difficulty settings. Latter-day video games (if you've read any previous review of mine) have upped how hard their "standard" difficulty is. Spider-man breaks the other way a bit. Maybe it's a bit too forgiving on its "Amazing" level, but that's the better alternative. It still is plenty challenging.

    Bad: Mary Jane/Miles Morales sneak missions. They set up a pretty fun showdown in Grand Central Station, but the rest of them weren't really that necessary (didn't help that I seemed to get caught once or twice in almost every instance by a dude who wasn't there a moment ago).

    Mixed: Some folks are saying this isn't like the Batman Arkham games. It absolutely is. Sole hero taking on multiple villains with little side quests that feature OTHER Spider-man characters, a steadily deteriorating urban situation as more and more baddies pop up throughout. I love the Arkham series. While the free-flow combat was different enough (my steepest learning curve was using "O" to dodge rather than "Triangle" - which is all but programmed into you after playing "Arkham" AND "Mordor"), I felt the similarities throughout.

    GREAT: Otto Octavius. There's some good voice acting in this game (Spidey, Mary Jane, J Jonah Jameson), but the writing and the performance of William Salyers as Otto Octavius was impeccable. His descent from optimistic, never-say-die, do-right-by-and-for-others scientist into the obsessive, vengeance-filled Doctor Octopus is pitch perfect the entire way. Even though you know how it HAS to go, you find yourself hoping that Otto stays on the right side. It's one of the more bittersweet performances we'll see.

    Bad: (Spoilers follow in this section) Despite what I just typed, the "twist" where it turns out that Doc Ock masterminded the escape of the rest of the Sinister Six doesn't land. It's too much too fast, and the writers never bothered to explain how the scientist who didn't have any money to continue his own experiments with prosthetics after Norman Osborn essentially stole what he was working on suddenly had the capital to plan the most elaborate jailbreak New York had ever seen. The cutscene on the roof of the raft is absolutely spectacular, but you have to leave logic at the door for it to make sense.

    Good: Plenty to do, but not too much. The side quests are nicely measured. Most games of this type usually introduce all the little side missions within the first few story missions, which can feel a little overwhelming. This game paces the release of those elements. Raid a base or two, catch a pigeon, do a story missions, repeat. Level up, plot your upgrades...do more swinging through the city!

    Bad: Final boss fight. I usually don't long for a "lock" button in games, but in the final fight on top of Oscorp, I could not get the camera to turn around to keep the boss in frame. The "demon" fight against Mr. Negative didn't have this problem, but they couldn't translate the same mechanic to the last battle. Fortunately, I only died once. Also, it was super-repetitive...to the point where I thought I was in some kind of an infinite loop. Enemies in this game don't have hit point indicators, so I thought maybe I wasn't doing something right...until 4th time through the same pattern it finally ended. ... Aaand went into another final confrontation on the side of the building which I wasn't even sure could be lost as there was no health indicator for Spidey anymore.

    Overall, I may actually try to play this game on the hardest difficulty, though I don't think I'll meet with much success. I'm even considering purchasing the DLC. I supposed it's the least I could do, considering I've borrowed this game from a friend, so i got all this enjoyment without paying for it.

    Anyway, good times, and now that I've seen the preview for the PS5 Spider-Man, it's clear they were already setting that game up with this one.    … Expand

    Nearly perfect in every way and certainly deserving of a 10! The combat is excellent and the traversal is intoxicating. Maybe there could be more to do in the free roam after you've beaten the game, but at that point you've invested 30+ hours so... maybe its not really a complaint

    The game’s graphics really amazed me. The ending is incredible for a spider-man fan although a little bit predictible. I think the story is better than all the movies’ stories combined. It really pulls you into the game. The gameplay is really good, combat is satisfying, swinging around the city really makes you feel like spider-man.For me it is the best spider-man game ever made.

It's foundations are so strong that, although there are some more generic elements to its open world, they're easily forgiven and are still reasonably fun to play.

    Spidey is just so fun to control that it doesn't matter that there's a lot of busywork in this game. The web swinging and combat are brilliant and make even the less interesting tasks fun.

    Better still is that the actual story, and the more scripted elements of gameplay are, for the most part, fantastic. The narrative moves along at a brisk clip, constantly throwing you into new exciting set pieces involving a whole host of Spider-Man villains that are a joy to see and fight. Even the missions where you aren't playing as Spidey are still quite fun and move the story along in interesting ways. I also loved all the unlockable upgrades and suits which were really appealing and gave me things to aim for.

    The characterisation of Spider-Man in this game is brilliant, and Otto's decline is so well handled. The ending of the story was great, setting up a sequel and delivering a strong emotional final note.

    I really enjoyed Spider-Man, and although it's not a perfect game it is a very fun one. It falls a bit short in its open world but excels in most other aspects, making this a must play PS4 title.

    The DLC is not as compelling as the main game and has even more busywork, including some annoying 'Screwball Challenges' but it still delivers more of the same great Spider-Man gameplay and tells an interesting enough story that makes it worthwhile.

    Although I've levelled a few criticisms against this game and its DLC, I've got to score it 9/10 because the fun factor is just so high in Spider-Man - seriously, none of its issues managed to detract from my overall enjoyment of the game. This is a fantastic title and one I highly recommend.    … 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.
