Aggressively-mid in every respect. This game is so obsessed with being the "definitive Spider-man experience" that it fails to carve out any unique identity at all; it takes everything that isn't nailed to the floor from Arkham, and fails to utilize any of what worked from the previous Spider-man games, (incredibly) flawed as they may have been. Ultimate Spider-man is more striking visually, Shattered Dimensions is more strongly characterized, 2000 is more playfully in-touch with how Spider-man is remembered. Unlike those games, this one will be forgotten in the next era, whenever the next "definitive" Spider-man game is released.
