Since the famous spider-man 2 ps2 game many studios tried to make a good spider-man game. In my opinion none of them turned out great. This stayed until insomniac announced that they are making the next spider-man game. This studio perfectly combined the two major features people wanted. The first feature is giving us the feeling of being spider-man. In this game you can freely swing around in New York Manhattan. The swinging mechanics in this game are so well made that the new spider man movies took inspiration from the game. Sometimes I found myself swinging around for hours. There are also a lot of "random" crimes happening when you are in free roam. So even when you 100% the game you have something to do. The second feature is having a typical spider man story. It doesn't have to be complicated or to keep me awake at night with it's different meanings. It's an exciting story which is a good enough to keep me playing the game. Most of the characters are well-written and lot of them have an interesting personality. There are things I don't like about this game. For example the basic enemies are basically all the same. The upgrading mechanics are also very basic.
This is game turned out really good. It's not perfect but gives you a lot of fun.
