Currently the game is at a stellar 91 on Metacritic
disappointed they didn't turn SM2 into a turn based RPG

I haven’t seen that many 100’s since Elden Ring. And it’s still 4 days till launch. Wish I finished the other 2 games.

I’m listening to John Paesano’s score from the first game to hype myself up!

Great music!!!

Glad he’s back for this new game too.

I’ll wait until there’s a sale on this. As I said before I still have to play MM.

Same here... but I might get it this weekend (under the guise of retail therapy) and then set it on the stack.

Played the first level before work, and it was so good. I'm ready to dive in this weekend.

I just received my copy. Nonsense that it has a 36 gb day one update patch. Thanks for killing my data cap, Sony.

LOVED the opening, that grabs you immediately for an awesome intro wild ride. So much fun so far.

I hope you all have fun with the game. I'm still working on God of War and Horizon Forbidden West. I hope to pick it up around Black Friday if there's a sale.

I don't know if it is my controller or what the but the web swinging is all sorts of fucked up for me. I swing and it sometimes won't register a new web shot so I am constantly falling to the ground.

that's weird about the swining. it feels as good as ever to me. i am about 34% of the way through playing on the highest available difficulty. combat is a challenge at times but the game is just as fun as the previous ones and i like that they simplified the suit tech.

I’m gonna blow through SM1 and MM to get to this. Want to play something while it’s somewhat fresh. Though I’m only 35% on SM1.

My swinging feels a little off too. Sometimes I'll mistakenly throw a line behind me a quickly do a 180.
