Sony just launched a big PlayStation game sale: These are the best deals
It’s hard to overstate how much fun basic movement is in “Spider-Man.”
Even after devoting more than 30 hours of my life to the game, I never tire of high-velocity traversal. If you’ve seen any of the “Spider-Man” films, you’re already familiar with how swinging around Manhattan works — it’s nearly identical in the PS4 game, but you’re in control.
And the version of Manhattan that “Spider-Man” lives in is almost as beautiful as the real thing. It’s not quite as large, or as detailed, but it’s got all the familiar landmarks you’d expect to see: Union Square, Central Park, and much more.
But what’s most impressive about the game is that it manages to tell a story and evoke the feeling of a high-budget Marvel superhero film — except you get to play it.
I want to be all the way clear here: I don’t even like “Spider-Man” as a character. I never read the comics growing up, and I don’t like the few films I saw. I love “Spider-Man” on PlayStation 4, though. And at $20, it’s a no brainer.
