What Scores do you think Spider Man 2 wil get?


  • Total voters
    427
  • Poll closed .
I originally predicted an 89. After watching the launch trailer earlier today, I'd like to amend that score to a 91.

It might seem outlandish over a trailer, but I guess I didn't realize how many big-name villains are in this one. It's looking like the quintessential Spider-Man game and I had to up the score a bit.

When the first Spider-Man came out on PS4, I wasn't all that interested, I didn't pick it up until a couple years later. I absolutely loved the gameplay combat loop. Miles Morales was more of the same but playing Performance RT mode made the combat more fluid and fun. These games have become top in my list of fav PS games. I'm content with more of the same.. Insomniac so far don't disappoint so fully expecting this one to be just as good. I never get tired of swinging through the city. I have a feeling this may crack the 90 on Metacritic.

so.. it's tomorrow? wow.

🤔.

Safe bet: high 80s
social media discourse:
  • Double standards
not ideal: low 80s.
social media discourse:
  • Sony's formula is getting stale.
big dick energy: 90+s
social media discourse:
  • media bias.

I voted high 80s. I suspect a common refrain in reviews will be along the lines of: "fast switching feels great, swinging has never felt better, but too much of the same design as the prior games holds it back".

Same here. I bought Spiderman a few months after launch on a sale not thinking I would love it. I was absolutely blown away.
 
I think this will score higher than expected. The combat seems more in depth, swinging seems better... if they just bring in more diverse side missions/activities then this will address issues I had with the first game.

94/100.
 
Strange how people in this thread want the game to get 90+ because insomniac "deserve" it..

The game should be judged on its merits and gameplay alone, not on the developers "deserving" it.
