    The story is great, the gameplay is very fun! One of the few games that I never used fast travel just because traversing through the city was so satisfying.

    Marvel’s Spider-Man is a great game. It was so much fun in that it makes playing as the titular hero such a blast. It was so much fun that I never wanted it to end.

    Marvel's Spider-man is wonderful edition to Sony's already fantastic line up of single player exclusive titles.

    First and foremost, Insomniac have made quite simply the most (and by quite some distance) fun character to exist in a 3rd person world. Traversing as Spider-man is both exhilarating and intuitive, which seems like it should be impossible to provide, however they have cracked

I mean look how much fun it was just grinding around in Sunset Overdrive. The only thing I can say that I didn't particularly like was the combat style. It's obviously ripped right out of the Arkham games, and still to this day I have no idea why people think that combat is fun. It's just boring. Spiderman's abilities make it a tad more fun for me than the Batman games but this button prompt method is just boring to me. It's the kind of combat that is built for looks not for gameplay. That's really the only thing I didn't like. The rest of the game more than makes up for it imo. If you are a fan of the Arkham games you will definitely like this game. If you aren't a fan of the Arkham games I would still suggest you try it. Im'm guessing that is you don't like the Arkham games it's because of the combat, but again Spiderman is still incredibly fun. Just try it.… Expand

    - All of the voice actors did a great job portraying their characters
    - Strong VO performances across the board; Yuri Lowenthal and Laura Bailey carry the story very well
    - Combat takes a little while to get used to, but with enough time and enough upgrades, encounters are a lot of fun to fight through
    - Gorgeous rendition of New York City sprinkled with a good amount of Marvel landmarks to keep things interesting
    - The fast travel scenes on the subway are great

    Mixed:
    - Stealth mechanics are serviceable, but these handful of sequences often just compose of web takedowns from the rafters. In strongholds, no matter how well you perform, enemies will be alerted once a certain number are taken out.
    - A podcast hosted by J. Jonah Jameson seems like a fun way to fill, but the dialogue often just harkens on the same joke over and over again and grows tiresome after awhile. At least the devs were nice enough to give the option to turn it off.
    - Overall the side quest content came across as uninspired, regularly falling into open world tropes and pitfalls
    - Suit power-ups are often fun to play around with, but Web Blossom is so overpowered that it basically renders everything else useless
    - There’s a nice arsenal of gadgets to choose from, but very little incentive to actually use all of them. Sticking with 2 or 3 throughout the game is more than enough to deal with any challenge.

    Bad:
    - Martin Li was a very lukewarm villain that was rewarded way to much screentime. Classic and infinitely more interesting bad guys mainly take a backseat in the narrative because of him.
    - Sequences with Miles and Mary Jane are adequate at the best of times and very annoying to get through overall
    - The lack of traversal upgrades was disappointing to say the least

And if quality gameplay, story and voice acting ain't enough, the game is drop dead gorgeous on top of that. I will admit however some of the side activities you can do are a little weak and generally stereotypical for an open world game, but when they absolutely nail everything else, it is not really worth getting pissy over. It is truly a must have on PS4, and (much to my surprise) one of the best games I have played in recent memory. A #P4P great for sure.… Expand

With that out of the way, the main reason being it just does everything with such a degree of skill and it has huge attention to detail to it that’ll make anyone who even is remotely a fan of the source material or action games want to check it out.

    The graphics are beautiful. Everything has a great look to it. Even buildings have small details, such as windows where you can see what’s inside the windows. This level of detail goes throughout the entire game. If you own a PS4 pro, the HDR effect is great and it looks beautiful on a good 4k TV with HDR. The game only runs at a locked 30 FPS but that’s fine, it doesn’t drop frames, at least anything that I’ve noticed and it’s very smooth as a result. The fast-paced action looks great, though while I would’ve loved a 60 FPS mode, the decision to keep it 30 might be for the best since everything just looks great. Even the NPC’s all look different enough to not feel like they just copy and pasted five models.

    The combat is very much different from the Arkham games. While the skeleton of that type of game is apparent, it is more vertical and exhilarating. The combat due to the nature that is Spiderman’s character is very fast paced. The combat is challenging and even on the ‘easy’ mode, it feels challenging. You can’t really mess up that much and healing is linked to combos it can be challenging to stay alive, especially if you made a few mistakes. Thankfully, checkpoints are very generous.

    It’s not perfect though, it has these forced stealth sections and puzzles. The puzzles aren’t that bad, if you take too much time to do them, you can skip most of them but the stealth sections don’t have this luxury. Thankfully, these sections aren’t that long and are over pretty quickly and are not that challenging but it feels out of place. Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice to have variety but the game could’ve been better without them. It has them to try and show different points of view, yet in a game about Spiderman, that’s all I really wanted to play as.

    It’s not a dealbreaker though. If anything, it’s just a minor annoyance and while an update that would give you an option to skip them would be the best thing ever, I’ve seen much worse. They felt out of place, unfortunately. The puzzles, are not that bad though and like I said, most can be skipped if you’re just not good at them, which is nice. They can be challenging and for those who like that kind of stuff, there is plenty to do.

    The game’s campaign is about 15 hours long. There are side missions that most are enjoyable, some felt like filler but I enjoyed most of the side missions. There are also different things you can do like a typical open world game. If you really wanted to do everything, you could easily spend 40-50 hours with this. There are also RPG elements. I like RPG’s so I didn’t mind them and I liked the progression, with getting stronger, faster and having more move sets. It’s not a full on action RPG but there are bits and pieces that make it feel like one at times.

    The story is good. It feels like you’re playing through a new Spiderman Trilogy. There are three acts. The first act is interesting enough, gives a proper introduction to the threat going on. The second act gets a bit repetitive and just when you feel the game might be getting a bit predictable, it throws a great plot twist and throws you into the third act. The third act is nothing short of fantastic and exciting. The third act truly does make up for a rather slow second act and fully worth the investment to get through it.

    So with that being said, despite its small pacing issues and the forced stealth sections, it’s still an amazing game well worth the money. Of course, these issues, if they were not there or corrected would’ve made this easily a 10/10 in my eyes, despite that, I give it the highest 9/10 I can.

    It’s truly fantastic and everyone should play it. Unless you hate Marvel or something.    … Expand

    I really liked this game, I feel i should preface everything I’m about to say with that statement: I really enjoyed this experience. Spiderman PS4 is easily the best spiderman game ever made, but to be honest there wasn’t a very high bar to swing over. The story while enjoyable is a tad predictable barring one mission, but it didn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things. In terms ofI really liked this game, I feel i should preface everything I’m about to say with that statement: I really enjoyed this experience. Spiderman PS4 is easily the best spiderman game ever made, but to be honest there wasn’t a very high bar to swing over. The story while enjoyable is a tad predictable barring one mission, but it didn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things. In terms of the story, it’s set 8 years into Peter’s role as the Web-Head, and it’s to the game's credit, it was a great choice to not focus on the origin story, after three different movie series it would have grown tired to hear it all again. In terms of gameplay I have never enjoyed traversal through a game more than I had with Spiderman. Swinging through the city is so much fun once you get the hang of it, and it doesn’t take long to comprehend it. It’s so seamless to control spiderman and go from point A to point B. I’m going to try to not fall into the basic troupes like other reviews but the feeling this game gives you can only be described as Spectacular.. Or Amazing.. Or.. Superior? My point is this game makes you really feel like you’re spiderman.. #&@$! I really enjoyed this mid-twenties Peter Parker, it made it easy to relate with him on everyday life things from Rent, to relationships with others. Spidey’s development as a character was a journey for not only Pete, but to me as the player. Watching Spiderman’s heart break over the villains he once called his mentors. The Combat is good enough; feeling like something from the Arkham series but you’ll go far to separate that thought from your head. Later parts of the game were a little grating as it feels like a nonstop flight, if you want truly be your friendly neighborhood Spidey friend I was also disappointed that you only really get to deal with supervillains in the last act of the game. You can only do so much with minions and I thought the main plot line with Mr.Negative could have used a break or two with missions to stop Scorpion, Electro or Vulture. Kingpin’s tutorial mission was the biggest disappointment. Could you imagine if the game had instead opened with Rhino charging through Times Square? Lastly I want speak about the side characters in the story, the ones who helped drive the story. I loved their inclusion to the overall story between Aunt May running the homeless Shelter F.E.A.S.T. or the introduction of Miles Morales or Mary Jane Watson. With a few exceptions I don’t think there was a reason to make missions where we have to play as either of the latter two side characters and sneak around enemies and throw distraction tools and tell spiderman witch of the baddies to take out next. I bought the game for Spiderman, just let me play as the damn Spidered Man. quick side note; James Jonah Jameson was a delight in this game and reminded me of how much i loved his role in the Toby McGuire Movie Trilogy. So as much as I enjoyed the game Insomniacs Spiderman gets an 8 / 10

    You can feel the love that insomniac has put into this title, from references to how masterfully the world is crafted. Everything in this game has been refined and perfected. The 1 thing that doesn't make it a 10 is that a lot of the missions are kind of stale. Which doesn't matter too much when the combat is this addicting.

    Геймплей состоит из:

    1) Боёв, которых в игре НУ ОЧЕНЬ МНОГО, но засчёт обширной прокачки приёмов и гаджетов, их количество не утомляет даже в финальной части игры. Экспериментировать и устраивать из боёв зрелищное шоу - не надоедает от начала и до самого конца (а игра совсем немаленькая, как минимум на пару десятков часов), разработчики дают массу возможностей для этого, это не утомительное закликивание, как например в знаменитой серии про ассасинов.

    2) Полётов по городу. Казалось бы, реализуйте полёты по городу таким образом, чтобы просто перемещаться из точки А в точку Б без раздражения, но инсомниак проработали эту механику
    настолько хорошо, что временами вы просто будете летать по городу с целью....а без какой-либо цели, просто так, потому что это круто, это захватывает дух, это лучше, чем сесть на спорткар в ГТА 5 и укатить в закат. Словами описать эти ощущения конечно трудно, это стоит пробовать самому, но достаточно озвучить тот факт, что фаст тревелом вы не будуте пользоваться даже тогда, когда такая возможность появится. Есть ли такие прецеденты в других играх с открытыми миром?

    3) Головоломки и стелс. Эти пункты вынес отдельно, так как они больше раздражают, чем дают какой-то фан. И если стелс в исполнении паучка ещё может доставить (есть особое удовольствие в подвешивании целой группы противников на паутине к потолку), то когда разработчики принуждают стелсить другими персонажами из окружения Питера Паркера, то это удручает, и эти уровни хотелось быстрее пропустить, чтобы вернуться к зрелищным боям и полётам в исполнении паука. Что касаемо головоломок, то они очень легки и быстро приедаются, надо было внести больше разнообразия и подредактировать баланс.

    Также отдельно стоит сказать об устройстве Open-World в этой игре. Склеен он по методичке Ubisoft, даже злополучные вышки присутствуют, за наличие которых можно было сразу убрать несколько баллов в финальной оценке, НО, благодаря приятнейшей механике полётов и динамичным быстрым перемещениям, даже эти вышки не ломают фан от игр и не занимают много времени (хотя лучше бы их вообще не было). Плюс отдельно стоит упомянуть, что любые активности в этой игре интереснее и разнообразнее сайд-квестов от той же юбисофт, чего только стоят задания сумасшедшего бригадира или квесты научных станций.

    Сюжет на удивление неплох, хоть я и не фанат комиксов, за его развитием было интересно следить, а режиссура и постановка в кат-сценах не уступает лучшим образцам этого поколения. Также стоит упомянуть, что в финальном акте игры, сюжет неожиданно меняет настроение и выдает очень неплохой драмы, что не может не радовать.

It has been hailed for its gameplay, story, and visuals alike, and while I don’t think it’s perfect, it’s one of the best games I’ve played on the Ps4.
    First off, the gameplay. The fighting mechanics are very interesting, and work in Spider-man’s distinct abilities in interesting ways, like swinging the enemies at each other using his web shooters, and placing laser activated trip mines to remotely attach opponents to walls. While this is all very good, I might have liked to see some more generic fighting techniques. That sounds kind of ridiculous seeing as how it’s a Spider-Man game and not “Joe Generic Takes on the Mob”, but I noticed that without using his webs, Peter seems a bit underpowered, and while his uppercut move seems great, it can typically only be comboed into web attacks after the original sequence, and it would have been nice to see some ground combos. Spider-Man is supposed to be a genetic based hero, and when he uses his tech more often than his genetic abilities in combat, it makes him seem like more of a tech based one. One thing that Insomniac nailed is the web swinging though. Some people may prefer the swinging in Spider-Man 2, which I have never played so I can’t entirely have a stance there, but it seems incredible in this game. There are many different types of missions in Spider-Man Ps4, ranging from air duct stealth, to taking on waves of enemies, to catching pigeons for your homeless friend, and while I greatly enjoyed these missions, both main story related and not, some of the side missions seemed repetitive. It was fun collecting the first seven backpacks, but by the ninety fourth I started to feel a bit annoyed. This doesn’t really affect your experience if you just want to play the story, especially if you’re on easy mode, (I was on normal difficulty) because most side missions only upgrade your stats and tech, so if you’re playing on an easy difficulty it still wont be too hard to complete the story without them.
    And let me talk about that story because woah. This is the first time that I was really invested in a video games story since I was in second grade playing Zelda on my DS. Don’t get me wrong, I pay attention to the stories, but typically I don’t care too much what happens to the characters. Not for this one though, it had me storming out of my living room and yelling “NO!” at the TV, which is, in my opinion, perfection. I don’t want to talk about it too much because I might get into spoiler territory but let me just say that if you’re a spider-man fanboy, this is gonna be good.
    And finally, I’d like to talk about the visuals, because this game makes New York look better than it did when I went there in real life. I found myself going to the tops of the tallest buildings just to get a better look at the scenery around me. This isn’t by any means groundbreaking, I mean, the graphics in Red Dead Redemption 2 are probably better, but it is quality enough to notice, and that’s quite good.
    So in conclusion, Spider-Man Ps4 isn’t perfect, but it proves that modern marvel games aren’t regulated to fighting game spin-offs, and mobile games that you play for a few days, and if you own a PlayStation four, this is 100% a must play title. My consences is a 9.3 out of 10.    … Expand

Sure, it's a beautiful recreation of NYC and there are some parts of the city that are great to swing through (like Times Square) but a lot of the buildings are just copy n paste and this annoyed me a bit.

    The developers borrowed many elements from the Batman: Arkham series and made it work for this character. I could swing around the city for hours with no particular goal in mind. The story is also great so far (I am about 2/3 in I think) and the characters feel alive.

    My only complaints are the following - and they are minor ones:
    - The game could use a bit more content: I played around 20 hours so far and am at 62% progress so it can't be more than 40 hours to complete the game entirely.
    - Some more unlockable skills that really enhance your gameplay would be nice: In particular I am thinking about some kind of wingsuit like in Homecoming. Would be nice to glide for a bit.
    - Release it on PC - I had to borrow a PS4 from a friend in order to play.

    The story is superb. The Best origin ever for one of the best (or worst?) Spider-Man's enemies. The game lacks a lock-on target, but is great anyway.

    This game is basically a love letter to spider-man fans and that's all that needs to be said. A few minor stuff I didn't like but it's super close to a 10 imo.

    One of the best superhero games of all times.

    The combat system is elegant, there is a lot of customization. main story is very good, the Peter Parker sections are good, the soundtrack is great.

    The only negative point is the forced stealth sections with two other characters which I won´t spoil

    История, ставшая классикой. Отличная подача, анимация персонажей, сюжет. Есть досадные ошибки вроде застревания главного героя в текстуре без возможности выбраться, а также некоторая повторяемость, утомляющая к середине. В общем и целом замечательный блокбастер.История, ставшая классикой. Отличная подача, анимация персонажей, сюжет.

    TL;DR - Fun as hell. That's all there is to it.

    +PROS+

    · Mechanically incredible. Web movement as a whole feels like some developer's magnum opus. The web swinging is so immersive and in-game New York so beautiful you can practically feel the wind as you steer Spider Man around the city. Combat can be 'somewhat buggy' at times, but generally speaking the amount of fun you'll have taking on groups of 10+ enemies and dodging everything coming your way will make up for it.

    · The stunning movement mechanics make literally everything in the entire game fun as hell. Where a normal RPG would struggle to motivate you to go pick up four of the easiest to find items in the entire game and deliver it to some schmuck, This title has you going around to 1000 different backpacks Peter Parker hid for himself around the city with pleasure, and you don't even know why the hell he'd waste a thousand perfectly decent backpacks.

    · The difficulty feels tuned - not oppressive. It's hard at times, but it's just not that kind of game and with your character's increased ability later in the game as skill points unlock, you'll still be challenged even with some pretty imbalanced power-ups.

    · The story is pretty compelling. Some rough spots, specifically side quests, but overall well above average.

    -CONS-

    · The game goes by surprisingly fast for what it is. Don't expect to put 100+ hours into the game. I'm pretty sure most average players can probably get fairly close to 100% in 50 or so hours if they're being relatively efficient.

    · While they can still be fun, the fetch quests start to pile up pretty quickly and can burn you out fairly quickly.

    · The non-Spider Man quests are absolute trash.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really liked this Game, absolute phänomenal.

    Story

    Brilliant, every cutscene every character was well written and presented. Especially with Spiderman alias Peter Parker they did a great job. The opponents are very well chosen (Octopus, Vulture and more). All in all it was a thrilling story ride with a very good ending.

    Graphics

    They nailed it, this game looks beatiful. Especially the cutscenes are perfect. The City or parts of its enviroment arent always good looking, but thats okay for me.

    Gameplay

    Stunning combat system, enjoyed every combo, every abilitie I made. The skill system is not that deep but it does its job. The collection of things (where u can learn some story parts) and skins for spiderman are good too. Only the challenges were boring and repetitive.

    Summary

    9/10 get and play this Game now, for every Marvel Fan but also others a must Have on Ps4.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had extremely high hopes for this game, and I'm pleased to say Insomniac Games have either met or exceeded every one of my expectations. While there is some room for improvement, Marvel's Spider-man is a fantastic game, one of the best of the generation in fact. More importantly, it rivals the Arkham games for the title of best superhero game, and more importantly still, it ranks alongside Spider-man 2, Into the Spider-Verse and the Spectacular Spider-man as one of the best takes on the character both within and outside the comics.

    I expected stellar graphics and gameplay, and that's exactly what I got. It runs beautifully, the game world looks gorgeous, and the impressive facial capture really adds life to cutscenes. The web-swinging is easily the most fun and visually impressive to date, and the combat is deep and open to experimentation, with a nice degree of enemy variety. Stealth is a bit basic, but is still satisfying. Wall-crawling is a bit awkward though, and it would have been nice to have had a bit more in the way of deep, story based side content that makes the most of Spider-man's rich history and mythology, but most of what's here is still fun regardless.

    What I didn't expect was how great the story and characters would be. Insomniac have delivered one of the all time great Spider-man stories in any medium in my opinion, managing the near impossible task of creating something that honours the past while also feeling new and fresh. This game features some of my favourite versions of Peter, MJ and [SPOILERS] Doc Ock. It's even one of only two pieces of Spider-man media to make me like and care about Miles Morales, a character I've been lukewarm on in the comics. Additionally, the love the developers have for the source material is obvious, with an obscene number of references and easter eggs to Spider-man and the wider Marvel Universe tucked away for discovery. There are some flaws: certain characters feel like they don't get enough screen time, and others feel a bit schizophrenically written in order to wrap up the plot. These are minor flaws however, and I applaud the Insomniac team for their amazing work in this field.

    To sum up, if you're a fan of Spider-man, superheroes, or just games in general, this is a must play. Thank you Insomniac for the amazing experience and all your hard work. Can't wait for the sequel!    … Expand

    This game is amazing! You can have hours of fun just swinging around the city, while completing the side missions! The main story is a fantastic combination of all that makes Spider-Man great; Villains, Emotion and Adventure!

    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.
