When it comes to a Spiderman videogame there are certain aspects you genuinely expect to see. Open world, great swinging mechanics and a wide array of familiar characters from the comics. Ultimate Spiderman delivers on all fronts here.
Created in the style of a living breathing comic book complete with transitions it's the best Spiderman game that I've played thus far (Though I'm told the 2018 offering will likely change that).
With plenty to do in the open world, a great fighting system that makes you feel rather overpowered and the best swinging mechanics to date Ultimate Spiderman is a fantastic superhero game.
I'm not keen on the animation style and I think the story is considerably too short (Like really really short) but it makes up for it in side content and never ending nods to fans of the original comic book.
Much of it can get a tad repetitive and I was left wishing there were maybe alternate suits, characters, more unlockables in general but I couldn't take away what they accomplished here.
The Good:
Solid mechanics
Lots of content
Web swinging is near flawless
Great comic book style
The Bad:
Graphical style doesn't suit me
More unlockables would have been nice
Story is far too short
