I wanted Marvel's on PS4 to make me feel like Spider-Man: To sail between the highrises of New York City, to nimbly web up hordes of enemies, and tussle with familiar, animal-themed villains. Insomniac Games' first foray into the world of Marvel handily delivers on all of that.

Absolutely gorgeous; Tight and effective storytelling; Feels so f***ing good
Limited variety of crimes to stop; Some stupid AI
Did you know Spider-Man sells way more toys than any other superhero More than gritty Batman, more than wholesome Superman and even more than super squad-goals, The Avengers.
Marvel's Spider-Man boasts a memorable story that does justice to a classic character.
