Spider-Man 2 review roundup (it looks amazing)

Couldn't find any reviews lower than an 8/10.

  • Metacritic 91

  • Opencritic 91

Selected outlets:

  • IGN:8/10: "Insomniac's best tale yet, a reliably fun superhero power trip despite its open world falling short"

  • Eurogamer: 4/5: "At once a little simple and a little over-stuffed, but above all a game of immense charm and fluid, free-form style"

  • GamesRadar: 5/5: "improves on its predecessor across the board, while saluting the superhero genre over the last 30 years as a whole"

  • Game Informer: 9.5/10: "finds what makes superhero stories worth telling and gives its likable heroes the journey they deserve"

  • Polygon:Unscored: "With a sequel teed up by the game’s final act, I’m eager to see where Insomniac goes with that momentum"

  • Gamespot:8/10: "an incredible story about heroes and villains grappling with loneliness"

  • Kotaku: Unscored: "its serpentine comic-book drama might not stick with me, but I will forever hear the siren call of its bustling world"

  • VG247:5/5: "Exceptional; the best a superhero game has ever felt, a tour de force of what the PlayStation 5 can do, the daftest, most earnest action game of 2023"

  • Video Gamer:**Video Gamer:** 5/5: "Will have you hankering for a radioactive spider bite of your own. Reality being what it is, you’re better off playing this over and over again"

  • VGC:5/5: "an incredibly confident sequel and one of 2023's best games. Fun to play, fast-paced, and full of heart, arguably the best Marvel game ever"

Looks like a really strong release! Anyone picking it up?
