So I went in this after having completed Spider man remastered (which I loved btw) so my expectations were indeed HIGH, however mid way through the game I realised something...I wasn't having fun anymore. And by the end of the game it left me with nothing but sourness and the need to revisit Spider man remastered because of how short and how unnecessary this game felt.

I'll start with the positives. Always been a huge fan of miles morales. He has a charming and bubbly personality. He has a great dynamic with his mother and a special friendship with Peter as he is trying to adjust to the Spider life. The graphics themselves look amazing indeed. The game mechanics didn't change much but I liked how they showed different finishes with his electrical powers, although I do wish we could have gotten an Electro Web Pokemon like move. I'm just saying! The music is amazing too. It started really strong especially the first boss fight with rhino and how you had to ride him. I thought that was creative and a new approach for a new Spider man, that itself was fun then it just kinda begun to fizzle after that.

Because here is the thing....this didn't feel like a standalone game...it felt very much like a dlc for Spider man remastered. Much like seperate ways with re4 remake. It was far too short for it to be its own standalone game and I'm sure the price was off the roof when it came out so there's that part. The story begun to get boring as it proceeded, none of the characters felt memorable, the villains besides rhino were irrelevant to me and not to mention the boss fights weren't nice. The length of the game felt like a tragedy considering the first one was so amazing at time management but also its story flow. For a spiderman game you need Villains that are famous for it to work that's why the first one did so well. Spiderman has so many Villains that are famous and haven't been used instead they thought it would be genius to do what they did. You know the term..."this could have been an email"... well this is that email....

Not as good as Spider-Man 2018 (marginally) but I enjoyed combat and swinging a lot more in this one - not sure if it's because of Miles' abilities and swinging style or the fact that this better optimized for the PS5 - either way I liked the smoothness of this game a lot more. The story is great and all the characters are great - Insomniac did a fantastic job with this. I think it also gets a little repetitive just like the last one but that's okay
