Celebrating 3 years of Spider-Man PS4's release, we take a look at what made Insomniac's take on the webcrawler so special.
The MP1st staff collects votes and picks the top 10 games of this generation, and the winner is something most gamers won't think of as no. 1!
The idea that someone would cringe at an FPS being number one makes me cringe. Especially when they probably haven’t played this game.
As what BlackDoom said. Have you even played its campaign? It's one of the best campaign FPS' ever.
MP is A-tier as well. I love God of War 2018, but even I prefer The Witcher 3 to it.
DASH & PAJ of Operation PlayStation Crossover with Betson and Max of For The Players to revisit Spider-Man on PlayStation 4. They also discuss what was innovative, and how some pitfalls of the adaptation could benefit Miles Morales, on PlayStation 5.

What's ridiculous about it? I platinumed the game and loved the main guy, and think that the new one looks weird AF. Nothing wrong with voicing an opinion.
"What's ridiculous about it? I platinumed the game and loved the main guy"
It's ridiculous because it's just a character model.
I also platinumed the game/loved the OG PP, and I don't care enough to whine about it.
I'm not really a fan of the new guy, but I don't have a problem with it either. I think it was unnecessary, but it's Insomniac's game and Insomniac's choice.
It's also only a face, and not a gameplay change.
It does take away.
Those of us who played the regular version grew attached or at the very least comfortable with the new face of spiderman for the games.
There is a connection people make and a judgment that is made. The judgement based on the audience response was that this was a good spiderman.
However, now they have to face the reality that they decided to change the look of spiderman entirely in order to...something something.
When you look at the comparisons there is a stiffness in the new model...at least in what they've shown thus far. This affects the audience reaction to the story elements of the game. It can go from, "that looked great" to "Whats wrong with his face"
But like all things we will get used to the change.
"When you look at the comparisons there is a stiffness in the new model"
Only way to tell is seeing it in action. You can't base how "stiff" something is on a still image.
@ziggurcat
There's a video
A full video of a scene from the game
He's stiff, and it's not as good as the original.
I don't care what the "issue" is I'm not getting upset about an other mans face. Can't do it. Won't do it.
You know Soyn is loving all this free pub though. Worked for TLOU2, you can do it again! Remember the puddles? Fantastic marketing by gamers everywhere. Every time gamers make up a controversy for Sony games they cut their marketing budget half.
Is too damn good! along side Miles Morales, visuals, gameplay, combat, controls, fun factor, music, sound effects, you name it!. Insomniac created a Masterpiece of a game. :)
Pretty much the ONLY complaint I had about Spider-Man (Haven’t played MM yet cause I want to play that on PS5) was that the city of New York was a bit boring. I know it’s very authentic and it looks gorgeous in places, and of course it’s a grid-based city with a lot of medium-height high-rise, but I really wish it would have had a bit more diversity & personality between the different neighborhoods/areas. I know it’s pretty much ‘just’ Manhattan, but the devs did such a fantastic job in creating a fun, gorgeous colorful city in Sunset Overdrive, that the realism of Spider-Man’s NY with all the brown buildings felt a little bit underwhelming …
"Do you know the part that I loved the most about the narrative? Something I have rarely seen people talk about?"
Felt the same exact way. Doc Oc's story is so damn good. The entire story is amazing. Good article. Shared and tagged Insomniac on twitter. Hope they see it. =)
