Alex I finished Spider-Men last night. It didn’t feel like it was a re-tread of the location of New York the way that I had feared. I mean, at the end of the day it sort of doesn’t matter much which building you’re swinging by. These games are not about exploration. That said my enjoyment might be partly down to recognising so many places I’d visited in real life.
The combat was good fun and the story was a decent enough yarn as well, although I felt it descended into a fair bit of fan service near the end, with reveals and references that didn’t make much sense to someone who hasn’t seen a Spider-Man film since the Toby Maguire ones. I also felt Myles was sort of left out in the cold as it went on, with less and less to do. Oh yeah, and playing as MJ still sucks.
Still overall I enjoyed it quite a bit.
