It’s finally here and getting great reviews, anyone getting it? It looks fantastic.

Ed-Zeppelin · « **Reply #1 on:** September 7, 2018, 06:24:59 am »

Was keeping an eye on it but the reviews have tipped it into a definite buy for me, although not immediately as I’ve got about 4 other games to finish first...

Sounds like they’ve got the feel of being Spider-Man flying around the city right and the combat looks fun.

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #2 on:** September 7, 2018, 07:00:07 am »

Yeah I'm picking it up today. Gonna trade Mario oddysey in for it.

Cannot wait to websling my way round the city. The lighting looks incredible too

Sat waiting for me at home, will jump on this evening can’t wait.

bailey90 · « **Reply #6 on:** September 7, 2018, 06:26:13 pm »

Got it.

Played about an hour.

It's awesome.

JoeCole · « **Reply #7 on:** September 7, 2018, 07:09:35 pm »

I don't think I've ever died so much on an opening mission before

WillG.LFC · « **Reply #8 on:** September 7, 2018, 09:04:53 pm »

Was going to wait till crimbo. Might accidentally buy it

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #9 on:** September 7, 2018, 10:43:56 pm »

Its super cool

J-Mc- · « **Reply #10 on:** September 8, 2018, 08:26:15 am »

It’s a fantastic game.

All the side things at the minute add up to 25% total completion though which is a bit shite.

Chalky Boots · « **Reply #11 on:** September 9, 2018, 01:42:28 pm »

Really enjoyable game so far. Really like that they've not bothered with the Origin story like the film as well.

Garlicbread · « **Reply #12 on:** September 9, 2018, 01:52:21 pm »

Game is great.

Sony has been killing it with their own exclusives this year.

Shadow of the Colossus remake, God of War, Detroit and now Spiderman.

TheKid. · « **Reply #13 on:** September 9, 2018, 10:40:12 pm »

I’ve barely done anything except slinging around the city and generally being spidery. Superb game

JoeCole · « **Reply #14 on:** September 9, 2018, 10:57:42 pm »

Most I've enjoyed a game in ages this, really loving it. Came across the locations from Jessica Jones and Daredevil earlier, great inclusions.

Photo mode is cool as fuck as well:

Shame you can’t swing on the helicopters, you could do that on the old one on PS2!

Also anyone else notice the lime green cabs in certain light, or is that just me?

JoeCole · « **Reply #17 on:** September 12, 2018, 07:03:11 pm »

I'm at 82% complete now, with about 50% of the trophies. Don't usually care much about getting trophies on games but I'm really into this game and want the platinum, think the one I'm going to have the most trouble getting is for getting a spectacular in the Drone challenge... Have so much trouble getting the lowest achievement on them, hate them.

Loved the turn in the story at the end of Chapter 2,

Spoiler

was a bit darker than I was expecting!

The only part of the game I'm not enjoying. Dull as fuck.

To be fair I thought the mission in

Spoiler

Grand Central Station was quite good. But I guess that's only because it involved Spider-Man!

TheKid. · « **Reply #22 on:** September 17, 2018, 05:14:57 pm »

I can see why they are in there as a change of pace, but totally agree that the best way to describe them is ‘dull as fuck’

Kansti · « **Reply #23 on:** September 18, 2018, 03:33:35 am »

Just thought I'd share my first ever PS4 screenshot. Captured on PS4pro. This game is just mind-blowing. God of War was my #1 choice for GOTY, but I think Spider-Man just might edge it in terms of pure entertainment and fun.

tubby · « **Reply #24 on:** September 18, 2018, 10:16:00 am »

Fuck me that looks lush. There was a deal for a Pro with Spider-Man on Amazon for £350, I went to check a few other sites to see if it could be bettered and when I got back to Amazon it was gone. Unbelievable.

Chakan · « **Reply #25 on:** September 19, 2018, 01:28:18 pm »

Really enjoying it so far, died quite a few times getting used to the buttons, I don't think having to push O to dodge that just screws me up, but got used to it.

Love just swinging around and finding stuff to do.

TheKid. · « **Reply #26 on:** September 19, 2018, 09:20:19 pm »

Yeah it takes a bit of playing to stop trying to do it ‘Arkham style’ before you stop dying as much

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #27 on:** September 19, 2018, 09:21:51 pm »

It's just such a cool game to play. Could just swing round the map for hours doing the side quests and the backpack and landmark stuff.

TheKid. · « **Reply #28 on:** September 20, 2018, 09:51:58 pm »

The circuit puzzles are boring the fuck out of me too. I know you can eventually skip them but takes ages to get to that point when there are multiple ones

They're insanely easy though.

Finished this today. Wow. Such an amazing story.

Actually had 2 post-credit scenes too

I’m sure they are, they’re fucking irritating though

bailey90 · « **Reply #32 on:** September 26, 2018, 01:34:32 am »

Platinum'd this a couple days ago. So so good.

It's very rare that I buy DLC for games, but I might have to for this when they come out.

AndyMuller · « **Reply #33 on:** September 30, 2018, 09:07:08 pm »

Only just got this and played an hour or two tonight.

Amazing game already.

Yeah only my second one on PS4, quite straightforward to be honest.

I bought the digital copy for the DLC, I knew I’d want to play it. Such an excellent game.

Tempted by this with all the good reviews. Though I know I’m getting RDR2 in three weeks which is holding me back...

I got it on Friday and it's absolutely worth it, the game is so much fun. I haven't really done anything of note so far, only a couple of missions in and I've mainly just been swinging around the city having the best time.

has gone odd · « **Reply #37 on:** October 1, 2018, 12:50:30 pm »

Can anyone remember the quest "wheels within wheels". Spiderman and a cop enter an old ship yard style building and you shoot electric webs at junction boxes.

The 1st 2 boxes work well and the cop climbs up to the 2nd floor where you have to shoot a 3rd box. Online guides say its the one behind the big spinning fan at the top of the roof but it does nothing for me. tried shooting at every box in the zone, including a hidden one in an elevator shaft but nothing. Think mine has bugged out and fucked if im starting over again

any help appreciated.

Yeah, these are the best types of Platinums. There's no 'play through 4 times on different difficulties whilst never pressing the triangle button' bullshit. Just play and do all of the activities.
