It's possibly (likely?) an unpopular opinion, but my favorite Spider-man game is Treyarch's Ultimate Spider-Man from 2005. It was simplistic, but it was fun. Open World games were still somewhat novel at the time, and the straightforward beat-em-up combat felt good. Plus I had (and still have) a soft spot for the old Ultimate Marvel universe, particularly the Spiderman and X-Men books. For a decent chunk of time they were the only comics my local library had, being able to play a related, but seperate story on my PS2 while I waited for more news about the just-announced sequel series to .Hack.

As for the Sony game, I had similar issues to you with the side content. I will say that I did enjoy the gang hideout activities, if only because approaching them with stealth made it feel similar to the Batman Arkham games, which I'm very much a fan of.

I loved the Ultimate Spiderman game too! I was a big fan of the comics at the time but I think what let it down for me was the combat. I really didn't like the webbing in that game.

Playing as Venom was also cool though you could easily cheese a lot of the enemies by spamming the long range heavy attacks

I beat it and I loved it! But I'm a big fan of the web head - favourite game based on him is the PSX game!

I beat Spiderman on PS4 Pro and I thought it was very decent. I'd rate it 4/5 or even 5/5 since I played it all the way through. I got the GOTY edition which included all DLC.
I really did like his dynamic with Black Cat and doing her hide outs but I think the DLC was too much of the same thing so I gave up after the first episode
