    Pros: Gorgeous game especially on the pro. Draw distance is impressive. City actually feels alive. Combat is fluid and very polished. Costumes are very well done each with unique and very awesome powers. Voice talent and voice overs are very good. Story itself is solid. Boss fights aren't amazing but they get the job done to keep you interested. Traversal is the best part of the game.Pros: Gorgeous game especially on the pro. Draw distance is impressive.

    Cons: A lot of pop-in from down below, mostly cars and people, its not horrible but it is bothersome. Some side missions are pretty recycled.
    All in all tho very good game.    … Expand

    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 it. Exploration becomes incredibly rewarding due to the nature of swinging through New York being the reward itself. For this reason I haven't made it very far through the story (which has been great so far), because I have just been collecting all the collectables.

    The collectables have been done in a very satisfying way. Each type is introduced after beating a main mission. This means that (for example) there are only 55 collectables on the map in the beginning (backpacks with tokens and cool nods to Spidey's past and relationships). Every single collectable is available for collection, there are no restrictions that waste time. Then after beating the next mission a completely different type of collectable is available, for example photographing all of the landmarks, getting three stars in Wilson Fisk hideout battles or completing research missions. This bite size nature of adding a new collectable as you play through makes the game enticing to consider platinum-ing.

    Combat: The combat in Spider-man has many highs and a few lows. Combat feels smooth and challenging, rewarding your diversity in moves. I am playing on the harder difficulty and in almost all cases where I have died it has been my own fault and fair. I think the challenge presented in the hard mode is perfect and wish all games offered this balanced, fair level of difficulty. The only complaint I have is that the brutes feel a little un-balanced on the harder setting. They can only be hit while they are webbed and they do huge damage, so if there is ever two of them in one fight, then isolating one and dealing with it becomes very frustrating as they take roughly 25 hits to go down, meaning you need to dodge and avoid damage while webbing and combo-ing it roughly 5-6 times, while dodging the other one. bearing in mind that they can kill you in two hits, it can get a bit panicky and button mashy. I love how this game wires itself into your nervous system the way a fighter game does, so when all of that deliberate fluid tactical combat and goes out the window, it feels slightly cheap.

    Graphics: Graphics is a tough one to talk about, as they are both incredible and at times lacklustre. The world and environments are so stunning that you could forgive someone for comparing this game Vs a cinematic liner single player title. However, we need to remember that this game is actually a large open world with thousands of NPCs, and because of this demanding nature, the NPCs cannot all have the fidelity of Nathan Drake from uncharted. The witcher 3 was the same, where it had really detailed main characters and important NPCs, but every villager had the same bowl-cut hair and face. I personally don't think it detracts from the game at all, but in the current climate of gaming, I know people are going to be "outraged".

    I thoroughly recommend this game to anyone, people with arthritis should avoid this game however, as it really is taxing on the thumbs.    … Expand

    However In Spider-Man The funniest thing to do in the game is swing around the breathtaking city of New York as it is almost as if the game devs took the real city and just placed it into the game (with some Marvel Universe thrown in) to make a living and breathing city almost like the city in itself is a character in the story, and speaking of the story, the story within the game kept me interested in figuring out what is going on within the city that never sleeps, Side missions are a bit of a let down in the game though they are still fun to do, and with 28 different suits to unlock and challenges to complete the game will keep you going for a while.
    The game itself took me about 3 days to finish (from Friday when it came out to Sunday) and through that entire weekend I never felt bored or uninterested with the game, Gadgets within the game are also fun and exciting to use with some helping with sneaking and other gadgets helping in combat.
    Enemy variety is great with about a variety of 6 different enemy units but also there are 4 types of organisations you will have to battle with these different units within their ranks. One issue however I had with the game is right at the end of the game when i Beat the boss battle the game glitched me into an in-escapable area forcing me to go back about half an hour, other than that I never faced any further bugs or glitches or any crashes as well, Overall an amazing game and I hope Insomniac are immediately making the next game because I can't wait to see what they do next with The Friendly, The Amazing, THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN!!!    … Expand

I hate exclusivity. It causes rifts between a community that should all be on the same side. In fear of this becoming a review on our species, i will talk about the game.

    Insomniac made big promises and built up a lot of hype, and i had my doubts. But this game delivers. Really, it does. The effort and love is seeping from every frame. This is THE ultimate spider-man. I have not been able to stop playing. Its every spider-man fans wet dream. Combat is exciting and challenging and suprisingly complex, graphics are stunning even on a vanilla ps4, and traversal is nothing short of masterpiece status.

    If you're one of those spiteful people creating multiple accounts just to drag this game (and therefore the people buying it) down, i urge you to consider what you're doing. We are all gamers. we should be united. Use your hatred to combat something that is genuinely worth fighting. For example, the PC disgrace that is battlefield 5. Just consider it please.

    There are so many reasons to be angry as gamers these days, but turding on the few good games we do get really isnt a good idea. We need to praise the good ones as much as possible. So that developers realise that we only accept quality..

    Pick your fights guys. Gaming is precious, good games are becoming more and more rare. Just try to look at things on the bigger scale. This game does not deserve your anger.    … Expand

    In a world where the Arkham games exist, Sony's Spider-Man may not be the greatest superhero game ever made, but it is easily the greatest Marvel game ever made, let alone the greatest Spider-Man game by a pretty wide margin, along with the greatest open world in a superhero game by a long shot (sorry, Arkham, you're amazing, but your open world gameplay is your biggest downfall), andIn a world where the Arkham games exist, Sony's Spider-Man may not be the greatest superhero game ever made, but it is easily the greatest Marvel game ever made, let alone the greatest Spider-Man game by a pretty wide margin, along with the greatest open world in a superhero game by a long shot (sorry, Arkham, you're amazing, but your open world gameplay is your biggest downfall), and easily still a top 5 superhero game overall: it really is the definitive webslinger experience.

    One area of contention while we're on the subject of Arkham: combat really is fluid here, but not quite as intuitive as the early Arkham games. On the other side of that coin, evasion is less of an 'insta-counter' than Arkham games, and deliberate thought needs to be put into your timing as your Spidey Sense tingles.

    Now for the real question: how's the web-slinging? Easy: more reactive, responsive, and fun than ever. Trying not to wear out the Arkham analogies (because the game is markedly different from the Arkham games in some core areas), but while a game like Arkham City is a combat-focused action game with a minor focus on open-world action/adventure gameplay, Spidey is an open-world action/adventure game with a minor focus on combat-focused action gameplay. Getting the hang of taking off, wall-runnung, free-falling, web stunts, web-zipping, and everything in-between to pick up speed is where the game feels like it's at its strongest. In terms of core gameplay, QTEs do rear their ugly head from time to time, but for the first time in Spider-Man, they are used a little more sparingly.

    Playing on Spectacular difficulty has given me a new appreciation for the game as well: if you happen to get roughed up by a gang of thugs early on - which can and will happen on Spectacular difficulty - you lose the encounter, but you gain the experience for whatever enemies you did beat, and you just checkpoint out of the encounter until a new crime needs to be stopped. I have to commend Insomniac for trying to create a game that can be so accessible to low-level players but also provide high-level challenge without trying to actively punish people who seek out said challenges. Collectibles are shown to you in an organic way with a more streamlined version of the Ubisoft tower system that doesn't turn collecting into a chore, as well: and if you prefer hunting for backpacks on your own, as long as you don't ping the area with the right analog stick, they remain un-illuminated.

    The story, like Arkham City, is pure fanservice, but not in a bad way. It's clearly a labor of love, and Insomniac's more seasoned Spider-Man feels like a welcome change and a completely new addition to a Spider-verse that typically has an unhealthy obsession with continuity reboots.

    Bottom line: if you don't like Spider-Man, this game may or may not change your mind. But if you've got any love for the wall-crawler, or even for superhero games in general, the words 'must-play' absolutely spring to mind.    … Expand

    I am pretty sure 99% of the negative reviews on this game are from the Xbox/PC fan base who are just irritated they won't get to play this game (same thing happened with God of War) - the game is the best Spider-Man game since Spider-Man 2 hands down.

    The city is truly alive, people shout out at you like you expect, some love you, others hate you (thanks JJ!) and the story for this Peter is amazing.

    Combat in my opinion, beats the Dark Knight (sorry Bat fans), it is more fluid and high speed, and you always have to use every advantage in your arsenal to win, because you are always massively out-numbered.

    The story is superb too. First time not having to play the death of Ben or finding out how Parker got his powers, just jumping straight in with an experience Spidey makes this much more fun.

    Main story is rumoured to be 22hrs roughly, depending on difficulty level, but honestly you will never just go from mission to mission, I end up going to towers, to backpacks, to research labs, to minor crimes, and just go swinging about because I can. so the story will definitely last longer than that for me.

    All in all, amazing game, definitely worth owning a PS4 to play, and games like this is why I own other consoles and not just my PC.

The gameplay is fluid and responsive and does what you intended to do most of the times. The combat, though it's nothing original, it's what they did with the pre existing formula that makes it unique. The combat has variety and it only increases as you unlock skills. The web slinging is an absolute blast and never gets old even for the 3000th time. And you will spend a lot of time swinging in this game. The story missions are very well structured and all of them have different ambiance to them. MJ stealth sections were also fun since they provided a change of pace and gave us a different POV. Side missions do tend to get repetitive but that doesn't matter when the mechanics are so damn good. The open world is a well realized version of Manhatten with the amount of detail that can compete with that of Gta5. The visuals are hands down unreal as expected from sony's first party games. This game has a lot of quality content, and it would be a crime for the ps4 gamers as well as spidey fans to miss on this masterpiece.… Expand

    So where to begin for this masterpiece? I guess let's start from the top.

    The web swinging is better than it's ever been, even better than Spider-Man Web Of Shadows or Spider-Man 2. You will never get bored of this web swinging because it's so fluid, fast, and dynamic, you've never been given more control in a Spider-Man game I promise you.

    The web swinging is better than it's ever been, even better than Spider-Man Web Of Shadows or Spider-Man 2. You will never get bored of this web swinging because it's so fluid, fast, and dynamic, you've never been given more control in a Spider-Man game I promise you.

    The graphics are incredible for an open world game and in my opinion it's the graphics on console to date. God Of War looked fantastic but New York and Spidey have never looked better and you will be mesmerized when swinging around the city and noticing every little detail. FPS never was an issue in the slightest and if anyone says downgrade they need to get their eyes checked immediately.

    Combat is possibly it's greatest strength, there has never been such a free will combat system. Much like Batman Arkham series you have total control over your gadgets and move sets, however this game takes it to another level with combo possibilities with your move sets and gadgets that it can be overwhelming in a great way because you're like "Dang I messed that up but man that was AWESOME!". I have found myself in awe of things I am able to do as a long time fan BUT there has never been a more accessible game for newcomers to Spider-Man games.

    The open world is alive and ever changing, you could be swinging around and see a crime happen, or you could be walking on the ground with citizens and one motions for you to come interact with them or you could be ambushed out of nowhere by some thugs and citizens will either love you or despise you just like it should be. There are tons of collectibles and side activities and even a Assassin's Creed-esque tower system but it's actually done in a great way and all in all the open world will keep you busy long after the credits roll

    The story is engaging and heart felt and Yuri Lowenthal in my opinion is the best Spidey we've ever had! He's so funny and says nerdy things and has cheesy but sometimes awesome one liners, the man is simply Spider-Man from here on in Spider-Man games until someone surpasses him but that's a massive uphill climb guys. The characters in the story Peter interacts with are all unique and wonderfully voice acted and kudos to the Mo-Cappers because this is truly a cinematic marvel.

    Finally.. let's talk about the suits and upgrades right? Well it's a little breathtaking, there are many many suits to collect and many upgrades to enhance them with and Spider-Man's upgrade tree makes him simply a terror for the criminals of New York and I love that. You can quickly change suits in just a few seconds and even transfer the unique powers of one suit to another if you so wish to and I love the freedom of that.

    In conclusion this is the best Spider-Man game ever made and arguably (Though not for me because I believe it is) the greatest Superhero game ever made. Insomniac has done what many thought was impossible and that is make the Spider-Man game we deserve with all the weight of the movies and all the charm of Peter Parker while capturing the tension and heartbreak that plagues Peter all the time.. but I can say with certainty that it is a journey you must take to experience what it's like to be the hero that in Captain America's own words says is "The best out of all of us".    … Expand

    In the muddled history of Spider-Man games there are few that most people will agree are amazing (no pun intended), but rather a mix of games that endeared themselves to some while angering others. This is where Insomniacs entry will break the mold. Anybody who claims this is not a spectacular entry is likely far up their own anal cavity.

    That said - there are a couple nagging issues    In the muddled history of Spider-Man games there are few that most people will agree are amazing (no pun intended), but rather a mix of games that endeared themselves to some while angering others. This is where Insomniacs entry will break the mold. Anybody who claims this is not a spectacular entry is likely far up their own anal cavity.

    That said - there are a couple nagging issues that while they do not hamper the overall enjoyment, may be worth noting before taking to the streets as the man of many webs.

    1. Combat: Now this isn't an issue with the way combat looks - it's gorgeous and fluent and I love every second. However, the game over-explains many of the combat features early in the game, and does little to reinforce them after, causing a bit of confusion as you quickly encounter large groups of mixed classes. Furthermore, even when combat shines the brightest there is an inherent feeling of "I didn't mean to do that but it looked cool!", basically like you have less control over Spidey then I'd personally like. To compare to Batman, where eventually you could play the timing game so well you'd never be touched (even without gadgets) - to reach that level with Spidey you'll have to become reliant on using gadgets frequently, and more or less smashing the dodge button.

    2. Sound: I love the sound, but the problem is the game handles ambient and voice work poorly in many areas, with ambient noise popping in suddenly and loudly, drowning out dialogue. Or that dialogue is so baby soft during the loudest scripted events. Fortunately there are a couple audio options even on console that may help you even this out. All in all sound is incredible, the game just handles volume poorly on the basic setting.

    Overall the game is magnificent, few times have I played with such a wide grin on my face the entire time. Insomniac did an amazing job of making the city feel alive, and making your part in the ecosystem feel natural and fluid. This is where it succeeds in spades over the Arkham franchise, because while I love those games too I always felt like I was "playing Batman well", not "I am Batman" as so many would cry.

The combat seems like a nice enough imitation of the Arkham system (the attack and evade buttons are too far apart, though ...), but the investigation, pre-engagement positioning and traversal gameplay is much worse.

    The Arkham games had this wonderful sense of being a predator who is in full control of his surroundings. This was most obvious in the stealth encounters against enemies with guns, but it was also the framing of most other fun activities in the games. You monitored your surroundings from the shadows or from above, made a plan, and actively choose to engage with melee fights, stealth sections or puzzles. Some sections were pretty linear despite this, but the games always made it feel like you were planning your approach.

    I don't get the sense of being in control of my surroundings at all in Spider-Man. The game doesn't expect me to or reward me for trying to make observations about my surroundings. I feel like I am stumbling from one decent combat encounter to the next one, without having any active part in planning the overall approach to traversal, engaging enemies or puzzles. The game doesn't provide any real options, or even any quality faked ones, which relegates the player to the role of a decision maker and button presser in a series of Arkham style combat encounters.    … Expand

    Second up is gameplay:
    Framerate is locked at 30fps, even on PS4 PRO. This makes the game feel slow and unresponsive. 60fps has been standard in gaming since the PS2 era. 30fps looks okay on film, where you don't have to control what people are doing, but 60fps is practically mandatory when you want a game to feel responsive.
    On top of that, gameplay is basically another Arkham-ripoff superhero game for combat but with more boring movement-less mid-air stuff.
    For Spiderman's web-swinging, the movement has a very dull feel to it. He shoots out of the web very quickly, but then his motion slows to a crawl about a quarter of a second after he lets go, meaning none of that fast-paced momentum based swinging like in Spiderman 2's movie tie in game. If air has the drag on a body required to slow it down that much horizontally, it'll have the drag on a body required to slow it down that much vertically, which basically would end up with Spiderman slowly drifting down like a feather or leaf. Clearly very stupid. Your physics don't need to be realistic, but if they aren't at least consistent, suspension of disbelief is impossible.    … Expand

    SHOCKINGLY bad. The pacing makes no sense, with text flying off the screen before you can read it (and I read really fast) and "tutorial" fights that kill you before you have a chance to try what you're supposed to be learning. THEN, once you learn a move, you inexplicably can't use it in the very next battle.

    Traveling via web through the city was also ridiculous. Things just happen, erratically, no matter which button you press. A part of your brain tells you, you just need to get the hang of it, but after 10 minutes you realize -- there's nothing to learn. Just mash buttons and pretend you're controlling what's going on.

    2 hours into it, I'm not ready to throw the game across the room -- but close.    … Expand

    This game has a boring and repetitive combat system. The physics are a joke. This game has awful lightning effects compared to E3, it looks like a Ubisoft game. The road textures are awful and it looks like it's covered with cake frosting. The developers promised physics-based web-swinging. Instead, there is a horrendous animation-based web-swinging system.

The road textures are awful and it looks like it's covered with cake frosting. The developers promised physics-based web-swinging. Instead, there is a horrendous animation-based web-swinging system. The reflections look bad, and that's because there isn't any real-time reflections. The missions lack variety, especially the side missions. Too many QTEs.

    The story is horrible in this game. If I'm not mistaken, the game is called "Marvel's Spider-Man". So why am I forced to play as Mary Jane and that other guy in some sections of the game? Those parts take away from the Spider-Man experience I wanted in this game. Peter Parker is extremely annoying in this game with his corny sense of humor. The tone of his voice makes the dialogue more cringeworthy. None of that was funny to me. The only thing I found funny in this game is Insomniac's attempt at making a AAA Game.

    There is no multiplayer. So once you beat the game, this game will go back to the shelf collecting dust. I would have been fine with no multiplayer if this game had so much depth and content, like GTA V. Unfortunately there is not much to do, besides high fiving people. Charging $60 for a game with no replay value is a cashgrab. I recommend you wait for the price to drop to $10 or wait for it to be free on PS Plus.    … Expand

After blow minding Batman Arkham experience from Rocksteady I was little bit concerned about new beginning of Spinder Man universe in gaming industry. That was caused about small experience by Insomniac games also. Sunset Overdrive was awesome but, let me get straight, games abot Marvel and DC heroes it's absolutely the top league.

    And after all the day of the redemption finally came!

    My doubt were compleately unjustifed. The game is simply wonderful. The plot renders the specific of Spidey very well. This is the same sneaky and funny guy we all knew from the comic line. Sinister Six really get handle! And my favourite Shocker is so fantastically designed! (very similiar to the Spidey PS2 game from 2004).

    Gameplay? Oh my god... It's simply stunning! When you tasting it you're thinking: Is that game really need anything else? It's so simply and juicy experience which makes everyone relief. Spidey is very agile thanks to we can make incredible things through the New York surroundings.

    Some whining about the side missions but c'mon people, this is not RPG! It's action game! In it all meaning itself. Talks about them no one allude about perfectly implemented easter eggs which makes every fan of Marvel universe dizzy. There are plenty of them!

    Insomniac made a fair work in the optimization also. The diffrence between PS4 PRO and normal PS4 it's only the graphics. In the both version the game works smoth as well.

    I'm Spidey fan from a long, long time and this game is crowning my life adventure through the Marvel best character in history.

    Thank you Insomniac ;)    … Expand

    It is an incredible game, the plot is at its height, the flights on the cobweb are beautiful, also a great fight, every fight is fun, the characters are worked out perfectly. Very beautiful open world. Interesting side quests, some of which show characters that did not appear in the storyline. On the map there are interesting activities, Peter's backpacks, which reveal the past of the hero.

    Sabe, eu sou um grande fã do Homem-Aranha desde sempre, meu herói preferido (personagem preferido no geral) dos meus 4 anos até hoje. Eu nunca vi um só filme, jogo ou animação que pudesse compreender tão bem o personagem e representar ele nessa história espetacular que honra o que Stan Lee e Steve Ditko fizeram ao criar o Homem-Aranha.
    Se você já adorou o começo do game, vai amar ainda mais o desenrolar da história, e o surpreendente final. Mas o gake não se trata só de história, mas também da gameplay. O combate, baseado na série Arkham, mas alterado aos moldes da Insomniac pra se encaixar ao Homem-Aranha em si. Com sua movimentação rápida, fluída, aérea e, principalmente, baseada no improviso, e essa última característica que faz o combate desse jogo único e um rival do estilo implementando pelos jogos do Batman. Nos Arkham por exemplo, quando você se deparava com um inimigo blindado, você tinha opções limitadas de derrotá-lo, que sempre apelavam pra no máximo três opções. No Homem-Aranha, apesar da variedade de inimigos e de suas imunidades, devido a quantidade de gadgets e opções, há inúmeros jeitos de imobilizar até os inimigos de maneiras muito interessantes e criativas. Seja jogando ele de uma beirada, socando-os pra cima, os enchendo de teia no ar, e puxando pra baixo (o que colaria eles no chão), jogando inimigos em cima de outros, jogando seus foguetes ou granadas de volta, finalizações aéreas, chutes balançando... Essa foi uma primeira tentativa de combate da Insomniac que conseguiu reinventar a fórmula Arkham e tornar ainda mais dinâmico que seu inspirador, além de ser mais desafiante, pois você vai encontrar muito mais inimigos armados em combate e sua resistência a balas é extremamente menor que a do Batman nos games.
    O stealth, mais rápido e agora com mais opções de distração que o stealth dos jogos predecessores (TASM 1 e 2 da Activision e Beenox), ainda não está no nível Arkham, porém ele consegue ser extremamente rápido e silencioso graças as habilidades do Teioso. A interação com cenário e as suas ferramentas deixam tudo mais fluido e interessante de se ver, além das animações de neutralização furtiva muito bem feitas e criativas.
    O melhor "web-slinging" já criado num jogo do Aranha. Desafiante de se aprender, mas quando você masteriza ele, simplesmente tudo ocorre de forma tão bela e fluída que até da gosto de passar muito tempo só se balançando pela cidade, misturando com seu parkour em prédios que deixa tudo mais prazeroso. É rápido e funcional, como nenhum outro game do Cabeça de Teia.
    28 trajes alternativos, 95% deles com uma habilidade única que você pode mesclar em outros trajes, como habilitar o ataque em área de efeito de guitarra do Aranha-Punk no traje Homemade. Além de permitir até 3 mods de armadura dente mais de 20 pra você ter vantagens no que você quiser, seja ofensivo, defensivo, movimentação e utilitários.
    Uma porrada de referências do começo ao fim do jogo, muitas delas de muito aparentes até bem secretas e que só encontramos dando um zoom com o Modo Foto. Quase sempre com um comentário engraçado do Peter pra você rir um pouco.
    Mundo vivo, Nova York recriada quase em perfeição, interação com o mundo, pessoas e cenário. Iluminação e gráficos com um nível de cair o queixo. Missões secundárias e coletaveis bem legais pra você descobrir vilões únicos, novos tipos de inimigos, mais da história da cidade e do Peter. Podcast do nosso amado JJJ sempre falando dos acontecimentos do jogo e culpando o amigão da vizinhança.

    Falando sério, modéstia à parte, como um dos maiores fãs do Homem-Aranha e como um viciado em videogames e coleta de platinas, esse é o game definitivo do herói. A maior obra dele em muito tempo que me deixa extremamente hypado pela sequência. Se você é fã também e tá em dúvida em comprar, não fique em dúvida, eu te prometo uma experiência incrível.

    Obrigado Insomniac e Sony por trazer meu sonho de ter finalmente um jogo que honre esse personagem que todos amamos. Vocês trouxeram o definivo Teioso, o superior Cabeça de Teia, o realmente Espetacular Homem-Aranha.    … Expand

The story is nothing too revolutionary if you are familiar with the franchise, but still makes a solid effort and treats its characters well. Visually, this game is excellent and minus one very minor bug here or there, it runs perfectly. The gameplay both during traversal and combat is fast, frantic, and fun. Insomniac clearly operated on a "fun first" mentality and it shows because the game is an absolute blast cover to cover and I can guarantee that I will pop it in for some swing seshes to unwind after a long day at work. I'm already impatiently waiting on the DLC, hungry for more. Buy this game at full price right now because Insomniac deserves it and you deserve it.… 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.
