Spider-Man ps4 is better than most of the Spidey films.

Just a great Spider-Man story.

Best game concept art key frames that I have seen in a long while! 👍

A shameless ripoff of the Arkham games, but I enjoyed it.

@soberchimera - I agree that they ripped off some stuff but combat was not one of them. In fact, Arkham ripped off Spider-Man 2's combat.

@Nightwing1015 - Eh, that's a bit of a stretch, I'm sure a lot of combat games at the time Spider-Man 2 are comparable, but Spider-Man definitely ripped off Arkham's stealth, trophies, side missions, open world, etc. Still liked it though, but if felt completely rehashed from Rocksteady.

@soberchimera - 1) no, they didn't really have a dodge system back then. That was the main detail of the fighting system there.

2) stealth maybe but thats also been used in other spiderman games later on. Starting with shattered dimensions. Granted shattered dimensions copied arkham, but after that the spiderman games were doing trial and error with the system scattered dimensions did.

3) side missions I just don't buy. Even more story centric side missions had been around since gta 3.

4) open world is a staple of spiderman games since spiderman 2. In fact in terms of how the game handles open world works like ultimate spiderman and web of shadows, 2 spiderman games released before arkham asylum. Sure, theres the radio towers, but towers being found to reveal map details is a staple of open world games since the original assassins creed.

In short, calling spiderman ps4 an arkham rip off is such a disservice to both this game and the amazing advancements the spiderman games have done prior to even the arkham games.

@soberchimera - oh forgot trophies. Thats also pretty unfair. Every game uses trophies now. I dont even think arkham started the use of achievements.

@soberchimera - How did they rip off the open world? Rocksteady's is Gotham while Spider-Man PS4 is basically the same New York that's been in every Spidey game for the last 15 years

Finally got around to playing this. Beat it 100% and gotta say, as someone who has completed every Spider-Man game this was incredibly underwhelming.

The padding was crazy. Every other mission you are either playing as Peter, MJ or Miles in the most formulaic boring ass cliched filler missions. Like all Playstation exclusives it tries its best to be an edgy take on the franchise with the whole Aunt may and Black Cat plot.

Uncanny valley like crazy with Peter and Miles. High quality skin textures on wax figures looks terrible. Faces try to be too real without stylizing for a comic accurate feeling. Then the bodies have absolutely no attention to detail with rubber bendy elbows and textured shadows.

The plot of the game feels like it was started as Amazing Spider-Man 3 the movie game, but after the movie was canceled Sony moved production of the game over as an exclusive and poured money in to the graphics. It is dumb and jumps around aimlessly, then introduces a virus outbreak last second to tee up the emotional finale without earning it at all.

And finally, the incredibly pathetic puzzle element literally shoe horned in for more padding. Those hacking mini games are a crime against gameplay and design.

The character designs are video game cliches. Spideys new costume with the white crap is just dumb and lazy. Doc Oc is bald for some reason. That bowl cut is iconic! Shocker looks like a Power Rangers villain. TOMBSTONE! Finally my boy is in a game, but look what they did to him. He is a cringy stereo type. What did they do to Hammer head? Why isnt he Silvermane? Did they even read a comic with Mr. Negative in it? They totally missed the point. Etc.

The only good aspects of the game are the sandbox city, costumes with powers, and passable web swinging.

This isn't even in the top 5 Spider-Man games.

@KingCipher - Doc Ock is bald? Mwlebeurfh!

@KingCipher - Can't vouch for the rest, but he's definitely right about the the uncanny valley. The character models in this game look weird and creepy, especially in combination with the unnatural movements of their bodies.

Not a fan of the character design for Ock in this game.

@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - he kind of looks like an 80s sitcom uncle

That ending to SM PS4 was right in the feels. I kinda hoping the MCU is doing a slow build to a Sinister 6 movie

I still play this game like every week. It's just so damn fun still.

"Mister Negative wasn't the best choice of villain"

Gonna have to disagree there. Glad they shone some light on lesser known Spider-Man villains.

Hell of game 100% it plus all DLC!



Tried to go back and play an older Spider-Man game Web Of Shadows turned it off after 15 mins I couldn't play it.




Maybe Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions but that's a very different game.

@KingCipher - It seemed like a good game had I played it first before Spider-Man PS4. The controls were what bothered me and the acting from the game I couldn't listen to it from Peter or Mary Jane then came in Cage.

Sorry man I got spoiled.

I might have to try Ultimate I did get the ROM for it for Playstation 2 will have to play on my laptop.

Great game. Just finished the story about a month ago. First game I’ve finished since ocarina of time. (Not a big gamer except for n64)

Such an amazing and addictive game!!!! I’m off work today and this story inspired me to play it some more. 👍

IMO, none of the movie versions come remotely close to bringing Spider-Man and the characters from his books to life the way this game did. This and the Arkham series for Batman are the definitive representations of those characters.
