Spider-Man 2 is what we want from a sequel, a much better story building on the foundations that the previous versions built, improving the gameplay in every possible way while the previous games are already among the best in terms of gameplay, using all the PS5’s powers and turning the game into a completely next-gen game, next-gen visuals, extraordinary and non-repetitive level design, deep characterization at the disposal of the story, use of dualsense’s features, much more entertaining boss fights, much better cutscenes and much better animations.

It doesn't matter that the second Spider-Man doesn't really move the gameplay forward and offers, with a few variations, just another helping of what worked in the previous two games. But in this case, we're really talking about excellence, so any experimentation and novelty could lead to disappointment. [Issue#331]

For the most part a thrilling story with fist-pumping missions. New mechanics are a mixed bag – but it’s still one of the best superhero things ever. [Issue#34, p.74]

Wwwow. The game is phenomenal. Its very difficult changing protagonists as the franchise has done throughout the series, but man did they finish strong in the third entry. The game goes on a while. My only gripe is their attempt to make it directly relatable to the time the game was made and completed. A little lame honestly. Covid doesn't quite compare to the games story. Still, it was really the only part that was entirely cliche and on the nose. It's a really good hero story. The gameplay is as smooth as you could make it. Every element comes together. Except that last part I mentioned that is way too on the nose.

Le jeux en soit est plutôt bien , le balancement est plus plaisant mais , l'histoire est bâclé presque trop prévisible, le jeux manque de contenu surtout les missions annexes qui sont répétitives , un énorme recylement du 1 notamment sur les animations bref c'est bien mais c'est déjà vu

Full of emotional highs that will make you get out of your chair and cheer at the screen in a way that few games have managed to achieve in recent memory, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 represents Insomniac Games operating at the apex of its considerable powers. Spectacular and amazing, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is a superior, spectacle stuffed action adventure that provides players with the ultimate superhero fantasy. Full of surprising heart and delicate moments that balance beautifully with the sort of blockbuster superhero bombast that its developer has refined to a fine art, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is a toweringly polished, unparalleled masterwork that redefines the superhero video game genre at large and is better than the previous two games in every way imaginable. This is exactly what you've been waiting for.

È un titolo di PS5 più bello mai giocato che posso volare e oscillare con una velocità che non si può spiegare

A practically complete sequel that improves almost everything it can improve and offers us the best Spider-Man video game and one of the best superhero video games in history. Outstanding in every way, pampering both the main and the secondary and that will surely leave us wanting more.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is a great sequel to a great game. It's bigger and more focused, and it captures everything that made the first game work. From start to finish, it is as fun to play as its predecessor, and if it has one "flaw," it is that you're getting exactly what you'd expect. I can't get enough of the game, so when I completed it, I instantly set out to finish all of the challenges. Kudos to the development team.

This is an amazing fantasy come to life and realised like never before. Insomniac Games has crafted yet another heartfelt Spider-Man story bursting with twists, turns, and show-stopping spectacle. While I wish it had taken a few more risks in changing up its open-world formula, it’s tricky to remember those criticisms when I’m diving from the top of the Empire State Building and firing out a web line at the last second as I swing away in search of ass to kick.

Spider-Man 2 made me feel like the web-slinger himself – two versions of him, in fact – as I played through the game. I loved the feeling of getting around the city, fighting crime and saving the day. I didn't like how weak Spider-Man sometimes felt against bigger groups, nor did I like when the story slowed things down and took me away from the high-flying action sections. However, the overall experience was able to surpass both of these issues, and Spider-Man 2 is worthy of every accolade it receives.

Even if these faults are eventually fixed in an upcoming patch, it’s clear that this game should not have been released in its current inexcusable state. It’s a shame because, critiques aside, there’s a genuinely addictive gameplay loop here that I’m sure I would have found more compelling if there was stability. Ultimately, bugs are not guaranteed in everyone’s playthroughs, so you may get lucky. But I do recommend being aware of these potential problems and making backup saves should something go awry.

A great experience in every way possible, a compelling story, action packed adventures, and always keeping you engaged and entertained. Hopefully Wolverine can live up to this

Questo gioco rappresenta la mia primissima esperienza con i titoli "Freeflow combat", ed ha rappresentato il trampolino di lancio della mia esperienza PS5. Il mio impatto con il gioco è stato talmente positivo che, dopo averci giocato ed averlo platinato, ho voluto recuperare titoli leggendari come la trilogia originale di "Batman Arkham". Questo però ha portato alla mia attenzione anche alcuni difetti del gioco che non avevo visto prima perciò, a più di due anni dalla mia esperienza, sono pronto a recensirlo. L'esperienza generale è equilibrata e godibile, adattandosi bene ai giocatori casuali ma risultando fin troppo facile per quelli più navigati, anche alla massima difficoltà. La storia principale non fa gridare al miracolo, e nel complesso l'ho trovata piuttosto debole, con sezioni particolarmente lente e tediose che tentano, senza riuscirci, di offrire un gameplay soddisfacente anche con **** come Peter Parker o Mary Jane. Lo sviluppo dei due protagonisti principali è ben studiato, ma nessuno dei molti potenziamenti e gadget disponibili nel gioco è realmente necessario per superare le difficoltà imposte, e nella maggior parte dei casi mi trovavo a farne uso più per flavor che per reale necessità. Anche le differenze tra Peter e Miles sono minime, e spesso giocare con l'uno o con l'altro non fa alcuna differenza: sarebbe stato molto semplice e molto più soddisfacente avere due **** specializzati in campi differenti, come per esempio parti di combattimento e parti di stealth. A proposito di stealth, ho adorato da morire le sezioni in cui ripulire i tetti ed i vicoli di New York senza farti scoprire dal gruppo di criminali di turno, tanto che ogni volta che potevo preferivo dare il via ad una sezione stealth piuttosto che ad un combattimento classico. Purtroppo per questo gioco, più avanti ho avuto modo di provare la "modalità Predatore" della saga di Arkham, e mi sono reso realmente conto di come vanno programmate le sezioni stealth. Non sono più riuscito a tornare indietro... Le missioni secondarie rappresentano una nota decisamente più positiva rispetto a quanto detto finora: sebbene a tratti un po' ripetitive, sono state per me la parte più divertente dell'esperienza, e sicuramente la sfida più ardua nella forma dei famigerati Nidi di simbionte. Non entrerò nel merito delle polemiche relative alla questione woke (evidente proprio in alcune delle missioni succitate) perché, sebbene presente, non mi ha infastidito e non l'ho trovata esasperata e volgare come nel caso di Dragon Age the Veilguard. L'ultimo punto di cui voglio parlare, l'esplorazione libera,per me è facilmente il pregio più grande di questo gioco: New York è immensa e piena di vita, e girarla appeso a corde di ragnatela è un'esperienza che non stanca praticamente mai, anche grazie alla fluidità ed alla rapidità di movimento che permette di coprire grandi distanze in brevi periodi. Ogni quartiere, ogni strada, ogni parco sono ricchi di dettagli e piccole citazioni, alcuni dei quali messi lì unicamente per i fan più accaniti e per i tuttologi Marvel. E se l'esplorazione non fa per voi, c'è sempre la possibilità di sbloccare il viaggio rapido, che ci farà muovere istantaneamente in quasi ogni punto della mappa in cui l'avremo ottenuto. In conclusione, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 è un titolo assolutamente valido, ricco di contenuti ed adatto agli appassionati tanto dei fumetti quanto dei videogiochi. Tende però a mostrare i suoi limiti quando messo sotto la lente di ingrandimento di fan più smaliziati, i quali comunque possono trarne un'esperienza godibile senza troppe pretese. Letteralmente un gioco adatto a tutti, come pochi altri del suo genere.

Once more, after the first game, which I dropped for exactly the same reason, I'm forced to play through snail paced missions, which are the antithesis of what a superhero game should be about. What is so hard about understanding that I don't want to play Mary-Jane 2, but Spider-Man 2? Not only that, but we also now have Harry missions! Just walk around really slowly and waste half an hour of your life for what should have been a 2-minute (skippable!!!) cutscene. I'm giving the game a generous 4/10 instead of what it ACTUALLY deserves (0/10 for wasting my time and annoying me), because the parts I was allowed to play as Spider-Man were fun, even if simply an inferior copy of Batman Arkham series.
