The review embargo for one of the most hyped games this year is up. Things look pretty good.

This is the first game that's making me consider buying a PS4.

You know... Because I haven't spent enough on games this year already.

I was getting it anyway, but the high-fiving citizens makes it a pre-order.

So... is it any good?

As someone who loved Arkham Asylum, but got bored with the sprawl of Arkham City and never played any of the rest, I'm torn over whether I'll enjoy this.

Only played it an hour, but it was fun.

But Arkham City was fun, too.

As you can see though, it looks fucking glorious.

I never really got on with Arkham. The similarities are obvious, but this feels so much more fluid. Zooming around is effortless and the combat box of tricks it gives you is awesome. Brilliant sense of humour too.

Also only an hour in, so can't comment much more than that.

I could just spend hours swinging around the city, it's utterly delightful.

Combat in this is so incredibly fluid. You switch from ground moves to midair moves to bouncing of walls and beating people in the face with their own gun. I love it.

So it's free roaming around a full-scale accurate model of Manhattan? Forget the Spider-Man stuff, that alone is enough to get me considering buying a PS4.

I don't suppose there's any wind of a PC release?

Post subject:  Re: Spider-Man on the PS4

I think it's a PS4 exclusive for a year.

I may have just made that up, but it's in my head for some reason.

Swinging around the city is indeed ace.

I'll hold my breath then. Can't justify a PS4 purchase.

Mostly accurate. There's a little artistic license, like ramming Avengers Tower in the middle of the Upper East Side

I don't think that's true. Wikipedia suggests the initial deal was between Marvel and Sony, with Insomniac coming on board later to actually do the development. It sounds like the rights belong to Sony. Plus, Sunset Overdrive notwithstanding, a lot of Insomniac's catalog is PlayStation exclusives

Yeah, he's one of my best friends but I decided to leave it and not reply. Leave him to it and all that.

And yes.. I'm glad you appreciate how good a joke it was!
