Xbox fanboys always do this. Everytime a PS exclusive comes out they say “sOnY gAmEs aRe iNtErAcTiVe mOvIEs”. Then when the sales numbers are released they say “tHaTs nOt iMpREsSiVE bEaCaUsE oF tHe iNsTaLL bAsE”. It’s pure bitterness.

Main story done. What an amazing ride this game was. The last few hours were a rush of adrenaline and the story blew past my expectations.
10/10

Peter Parker is not white enough
Miles Morales is black and Hispanic, super woke
MJs ass is too small, and her boobs don't exist
2/10, woke crap
/s
Great game so far, but not up there with GoW Ragnarok or TLOU 2. 9/10 seems fair.

Eh I still have final act to go. Have to go to work.
So probably 9/10, haven't done much side activities
Also I haven't caught any bugs yet, there are some pop-ins though.

One bug I experienced but nothing major but i put it down to finish Lords of the Fallen (omg tons of bugs, crashes and perf issues) which I have like 40 hours invested in. Once I'm done, Spidey will be all mine (pause).
OK. So this game d9esnt have downtime. Need to chill I feel like I'm finishing this soon

Yep. I’m genuinely wanting them to remaster the remaster at this point, lol. Because that story is so worth experiencing any time, but the way things feel in this new one, across a wide swath of the game…
Still in this game’s thrall. Played through the Coney Island mission tonight, and can’t say how much I loved everything. I literally can’t say because it’s spoilers, lol.
But this game seems to balance Peter, his life, and Spider-Man (and Miles, I keep forgetting) so much better than the first did, with the lowlight there being MJ’s constant stealth missions. In comparison and just in general, the Peter stuff is great and sometimes fantastic in its own right.
Which makes the Spider-Man stuff truly extraordinary. The contrast is really good.

Love it, my only gripe is how fruity and nerdy Miles sounds! I hate his voice!!
A friend who has completed says I'm still ways away from the ending, which is great. Going through a lot of side-content right now, which is allowing me to buy loads of equipment. Some is close to being maxed out. Also, I'd recommend for you to follow at least the two collectible "questlines" below:

Game is really good
Not usually one to talk much about graphics but they really shine here bigtime and the city feels very noticeably more lifelike, vibrant, and colourful than in the previous game.
It's more of the same, with slight enhancements, exactly what I expected. No assist swinging feels better, but there is still a speed limit on web swinging and there are still little quirks I don't like about how swinging works, but in general it's probably the best mechanically Spider-man has ever been.
Everything is fun for me except the boring ass walk and talks, banal third person exposition as gameplay. Somewhere around Uncharted people started thinking that making you babysit a cutscene with the excuse of "we didn't take control away from you!" was elevating the medium. Give me a fucking cutscene, please. It feels like 50% of the missions I've played so far are Peter Parker things and not Spider-man things.
There is a brief segment where I'm tasked with cleaning up my goddamned kitchen while Mary Jane looks through boxes. This is a glorified cutscene. Quite honestly, it is basically the same thing to me as Desert Bus. It's a section of "gameplay" that has one outcome and every now and then you have to prod the controller to keep the scene moving. At least Desert Bus has fail states. This is supposed to be MORE IMMERSIVE CINEMATIC GAMEPLAY, but an NPC will stand holding a car door open for me repeating some lines infinitely while I stand there like an idiot until I read the on screen button prompt informing me to press X to enter the vehicle.
Like increasingly they are making things I would not have expected to be superhero gameplay into gameplay, and making things I want to be cool gameplay sequences into cinematics. One small example I noticed last night was a part where Spidey jumps off a building and is chasing a falling enemy on the way down. I was like, this would be really cool to control in a cinematic gameplay sequence. Sorry best we can do is a QTE but how about a pedal bike ride with Harry?
It's this weird marriage of the absolute best high octane superhero gameplay mechanics ever, and the most inane mind numbingly dull slice of life third person exposition gameplay that all PRESTIGE games seem to have now. Good thing they nail the Spidey gameplay.
