Do you know how hard it is to wait buying a game you're certain you'll love? Welcome to my world.
Spider-Man is one of my favorite Marvel characters so I've been waiting for a next gen console game to feature him. What we got with this game was an amazing, pun intended, experience =)
The voice acting is superb. Every main character is fleshed out well and we get a real sense of their motivations throughout the main story. Most of the character rendering was surreal. I thought Rutger Hauer played Norman Osborn, but it turned out to be Boggs from Shawshank!
The combat is very Batman-esque. That's not a bad thing! There is stealth involved, as well as an array of gadgets at Spidey's disposal. Mostly, I got a lot of button mashing thrills from just diving in to combat. The slow motion shots are incredible! I would point out that some missions require a touch more than button mashing.
Travel is the highlight. Web-slinging around New York City was one of my favorite parts. While you are able to use the subway system to "teleport" to different areas, you can see the sites and swing there. My only gripe with web-slinging was sometimes, especially during the pigeon challenges and Taskmaster challenges, it was difficult rapidly changing directions. Going in a straight line = great.
Story wise I was super happy with how the developers told their tale. My favorite were the first DLC Black Cat missions. The way she works Spider-Man had me yelling at the screen lol!
It seems as though every video game developer is doing the same thing- coming out with the main game, then adding extra content later on that costs as much as the original game. Inevitably, we get a Game of the Year edition with all the extra content at a fraction of the price. That's why I waited.
The product itself is a physical disk for the main game and codes for all the DLC. Some reviewers seemed super upset that all of the content was not available on the disk. I don't mind at all- I have plenty of space on my PS4Pro. If you're good with that, this game is well worth the price and is tons of fun.
