Marvel's Spider-Man boasts a memorable story that does justice to a classic character. The setpieces are awesome, the story regularly put a smile on my face, and the swinging is satisfying, but everything outside of the main story suffers from feeling a little by-the-numbers and repetitive, yet when...

That's a bold statement to start the review on but there's no other webslinger game that comes even close to this. Not Spider-man 2 on the PS1, not Maximum Carnage on the Mega Drive…nothing.

Whenever I think of Spider-Man I think of this youthful, eager superhero who refuses to be haunted by his tragic past. He's energetic, he's positive, and always willing to help out everyone in need. He is who he says he is – "Just your friendly neighborhood spider-man.

My kids love this game. Only thing missing from it is multiplayer mode but overall this is great for any Spiderman fan.

There are few kinds of games harder to get right than those based on superhero franchises. The problem stems from the very concept itself.

Swinging feels spot on; Simple yet entertaining combat; Some neat twists and turns

Feels somewhat padded; Drowning in open world tropes; Stealth sections aren't great

I pre-ordered Spidey's latest Web slinging game, and WOW!! I am not disappointed. The freedom of movement around a bustling New York City, interacting with patrons of the city as well as laying the smack down on the more seedy crime mobsters.

I bought this on pre order as it should have come with bonus content. I received the standard game with no additional content and have a very disappointed child. The game is fantastic but the service from very is appalling I'm never using them to pre order a game again.

I ordered this game for my sons birthday just over a week in advance thinking it would arrive in the 7 days stated but no it only took 3 days to arrive! The website was very simple to use and the ease of ordering it was brilliant! Not to mention it was half the price of everywhere else!

Much like its protagonist, the PS4 -exclusive Spider-Man wears its heart on its sleeve. There are obvious gameplay influences from other superhero games like the Batman Arkham series but thanks to a relatable hero, superlative movement, and great combat, it ends up being more than the sum of its...

Solid combat; Fantastic sense of movement; Relatable hero; Compelling story
