I finally finished Spider-Man 2:

Mini-review and impressions.
(My opinion of course)

Insomniac Games just simply understood their role and the importance of this game. They've officially set the new standard for what it takes to make a fun, impactful and successful superhero video game.

Just about every episode I sat down to play had something new and refreshing, I cannot recall a moment where I got bored or felt like a mission dragged on for too long or even seemed pointless to its story progression. Spider-Man 2 feels Blockbuster rich and you really see that towards the final hours of the game. Resources for this one were well spent lol.

The characters we're written incredibly well, their stories had purpose and meaning to the evolution of Insomnia's Spider-Man universe. The Balance between Peter and Miles was also a joy to expereince highlighting both their struggles and importance in this story. MJ was very much involved and the team did some really great stuff for her- MJ missions we're much better this time around. Harry also has some really good moments of his own here.

The build-up and anticipation for Venom's arrival was pure perfection and man... IT DELIVERED. This is the best version of Venom that we have seen in A LONG time (movies included lol). Everything from the design, to the voice acting and beyond (which you should really play till the end to see for yourself.)

Main story was roughly 10-12 hours to complete with TONS of side quests to do in between or after main story completion. Some including familiar Spider-Man characters. As you know, many suits to unlock as well as upgrades, gadgets, skills and etc..

Spider-Man is yet another good example that games dont need to be 50 hours long in story to be good. Its always better to finish a game wanting more than not. IMO

FOR ME - anywhere from 10-15 maybe 20 hours max is the sweet spot.

(Only RDR2 has been able to keep stuck to my seat for 40+ hours)

I'd love to get a new Miles Morales game then Spider-Man 3.. or at least some DLC. This was great stuff.

If you played and enjoyed Spider-Man PS4 or Miles Morales. This one is MUST PLAY.

Something like this does not get made without true passion and hard work.

Easily My game of the year 2023.

Thank you Insomniac Games for this experience.

Wait.. what happened to Peter and Miles?😅
