It’s an action-packed journey that’s oh so very difficult to put down. If you ask me, the game also has the best opening hour that you’ll play this year. Fans are in love with Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s improved traversal. Web slinging already felt fantastic but add in the new slingshots, web wings and wind tunnels, and it’s become something really quite special.
