Spider-Man is MARVEL's long overdue response to the Batman: Arkham video game franchise; and boy what a response this is. Spider-Man is one of 2018's very welcome surprises from the game industry. It's got the same photogenically gorgeous graphics of 2015's Arkham Knight and this year's God of War. Not to mention that the open-world design of this game is also very intricate and immersive; almost a little too much some might say. I don't understand where the critics are coming from when they say the open-world design isn't innovative: I reckon that it's an improvement on that area of past Spider-Man games. And this Spider-Man game uses previous adaptations as a broad reference point, not a direct conversion of any pre-existing movie, TV-show or comic book: it just dives right into the life of an older and more refined 23-year-old Peter Parker.
Spider-Man is one of 2018's biggest and greatest media events! Don't miss out!
