    Fantastic! While this game is not as long as the original game, i think it delivers a better, more concise package. Looks great and plays even better. Highly recommended.

    Good start for the new gen, the raytracing is amazin, i would like it to be a little bit longer, but with this complex stories nowdays everything burns so fast, miles is so relatable, the game is smooth at 60fps, and a threat to watch at 30fps in cinematic mode.

    Every moment fun and exciting. Collecting and powering up suits, takedown animations, the fun combat from the previous game and a easy interface for all the side missions were my favorite highlights of the game. The pacing was great and the cutscenes did a good job of Not dragging on.

    Counting reviewing for the bots and whiny children that are complaining about Peter's face, etc. I get a lower score for being short; but the game is awesome and fun and this is pathetic to see so many man-children resorting to this crap of negative posting.

    Spider-Man: Miles Morales does whatever a Spider can. Literally. You swing around punching people and using gadgets just like in the first game. I might criticize this game for being too similar. Certainly in a head to head competition, the first game is going to win. It’s simply bigger and also the first time you see this version of New York. Yet Miles Morales is a fantastic game in itsSpider-Man: Miles Morales does whatever a Spider can. Literally. You swing around punching people and using gadgets just like in the first game. I might criticize this game for being too similar. Certainly in a head to head competition, the first game is going to win. It’s simply bigger and also the first time you see this version of New York. Yet Miles Morales is a fantastic game in its own right and for that it deserves credit. Even if this were an expansion, it would be a fantastic expansion and I would score it the same.

    Let’s address the rhinoceros in the room. This game is short but not too short. My playthrough took 17 hours. I liked that the game was short. The game does not hit you with upgrade paths that require a lot of grinding or an insane amount of collectibles needed for a new costumes or a Platinum trophy. Every minute of my 17 hours was spectacular.

    The magic of the game is the gameplay. All of the cutscenes, performances, and story elements are nice. I’ve played games with great cutscenes and terrible gameplay and one of them is The Order: 1886. I’ve also played games with great gameplay and terrible cutscenes and one of those is Just Cause 2. Either one will only take a game so far. Combine both and you have a legend. If you have played the first Spider-Man game, you know what to expect with Miles Morales.

    A short thought on Miles Morales, his powers fit right into a video game because they are OP as hell. Think about it. He has all of the original Spider-Man’s powers and Spider-Man already has a complete power set. On top of all that, Miles Morales can become invisible and shoot out electricity. This means that in a tough fight, Miles can go invisible like a get of danger free card. Or he can use his electricity powers like a win button. Writing for Miles Morales must be a chore, because like with Super-Man in the DC Universe, Miles is assured of winning so long as he uses all of his powers. In a video game, though, going invisible and hitting bad guys with electricity is plainly and simply fun to do. Miles fits right in.

    The last time I played a stand-alone expansion like this was Infamous: First Light. I believe that expansion was made by the same studio. The difference between First Light and Miles Morales is that I downloaded First Light for free with PS+ and I paid $50 for Miles Morales. I will stay out of the debate of weather Miles Morales is a good deal. I usually wait a year or more to buy games and in fact I bought the complete Spider-Man game a year late for a mere $25. Sony is certainly making a case for the value of Miles Morales by including a PS5 version of first Spider-Man game as a $20 add-on. Best not to get into the value debate. A good game is good regardless of playtime and price.

    Last thought on this game: I want more of it. Keeping my fingers crossed for a Spider-Man 2 with two spider-men.

    A favor: controles, diálogos, história, velocidade de carregamento, som, combates, gráficos. Jogão.

    A great game for representation, I absolutely loved the story in this game and the overarching theme of Miles being anyone's Spiderman no matter where they are from. I despise all the go woke go broke comments in here, us whites have had infinitely more protagonists and games base all about us, this game is great for breaking that.

Also btw the Peter face change was great his old face was ugly now he looks like he’s actually 25 instead of 39 he looks great for the 5 minutes he’s in the game Expand

    A lot of complaints are down to how short the game is. I got 20+ hours and a platinum trophy, and I spent £50. Less than most games out now.

    It's an incredible game. Yes it's similar to the PS4 version but why change what isn't broken? The suits are great, the story is fantastic, and it's Miles Morales! Bare in mind, the devs never marketed this as a full length game. It was also an

    Bare in mind, the devs never marketed this as a full length game. It was also an expansion. Also, to reference a lot of complaints about the redesign in Peter, it does grow on you. I have began to like it.

    People just love to complain about anything for no reason. Why does a game deserve a straight up 0 because it was short? People have no idea how to score a game effectively. It deserves 10's across the board.

People keep saying it dlc but have ya plaued the dlc for Spiderman 2018. Spiderman was only stuck small area of New York not the entire city so give credit to Insomanic for giving the entire Manhattan as playground for the new Spiderman in a short time especial with the best ray tracing at 60 fps on console!

    Digna continuación del spiderman 2018, la mejora en calidad gráfica y el mimo por el detalle que le han dedicado a este juego ese merecedor de un 10. Cuando entras en el centro comercial y tropiezas con la lámpara que es el símbolo de insomniac o la torpeza de miles en cada salto, simplemente genial.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is pretty amazing too. I remember most of the Spider-Man games I played was based on Peter Parker, I love Peter Parker, but I want a change in 2020, and that change came when the next Spider-Man game was going to be based on Miles Morales was announced by Insomniac. But what I did not like is what they did they did with Peter Parker's face, and also you do not get to see his face in the whole game because he with Mary Jane as her Photography. Only the first part of the game you do and the ending. This game is pretty amazing, I'm excited to play this game on PS5 when I buy one. Expand

    Stretched between two generations of consoles, Spider-Man: Miles Morales is more of a teaser than a real showcase of PS5’s capabilities. It does not feel like a full-fledged sequel either, but the original’s gameplay mechanics still work great, while new gadgets and skills related to electricity are fun to use. [13/2020, p.54]

    From its newly incorporated next-gen technology down to its rooted and representative backstory, Spider-Man: Miles Morales showcases some of the best capabilities of the PS5. A short but fun sequel to the groundbreaking Spider-Man for PS4 that’s more than worthy as a successor.
