I'm most of the way into Insomniac's Spider-Man for PS4, and it's the best game I've played in years. In most games, I'm either in it for the gameplay or in it for the plot/character aspects; it's very rare for me to be this into both sides!
I think the only thing I'd change is toning down the base battles where you have to fight wave after wave of enemies, and those are optional anyway, so I can cheerfully ignore them. But that really is the only thing I want to change about this game.
It's almost certainly going into my ten favourite games of all time. I don't think it's possible, at this point, for it to screw up so badly it doesn't make the list, unless the ending cutscene makes the PS4 malfunction and eject the disc at high speed into my face.
I enjoy Peter wondering whether T'Challa was bitten by a radioactive panther. 'That'd probably hurt.'
I hope the Miles of this universe gets his powers from Peter biting him.
There's a side mission where mind-controlled people are fighting each other on top of a burning building, and Peter's solution is to... web them to the building, immobilising them. The burning building. Excellent work, Peter; I see no flaws here.
( And some spoilery notes. )
Great quote from a passer-by after I beat up a load of guys: 'I don't like violence, but damn, that was cool.'
