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.

 

[Aguero9320]

Should that also be scored accordingly?

Yes.

 

[Varteras]

75~95

 

[Justin9mm]

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.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

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.

 

[Pedro Motta]

91, safe.

 

[saintjules]

Pros and Cons for me. Numbers don't mean anything.

 

[BoxFresh123]

No 0~44 option?

Somebody's confident.

 

[demigod]

Flat 90. Fanboy sites will bring the score down.

 

[solidus12]

75~95

It's gonna score higher than Starfield, and you will be there to see it.

 

[adamsapple]

It's gonna score higher than Starfield, and you will be there to see it.

All I know is that it will have a higher score than Starfield.

Seems like this is pretty important for you, hope it lives up to it for you

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

i am gonna wake up with this:

or this:

but i have the feeling that i am going to heavily use this gif anyway:

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

93 and as I said in another thread a couple of months ago, it will be a GOTY contender, I'm already preparing my salt bath

 

[Zathalus]

I voted 90+, I think this may be one to go over the 90 meta.

 

[ProtoByte]

88. Wolverine will be more of a 90+ game for critics.

 

[Nydius]

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”.

 

[jm89]

 

[Dafegamer]

Can't go wrong with 87

 

[CuteFaceJay]

80's simply because it's doing a lot of what was done in the past 2 games before it.

 

[L*][*N*K]

it will be the 2nd highest rated game of the year right after BG3

 

[Vroadstar]

It will start at 91 and then stabilize at 89

 

[Alphagear]

Seems like this is pretty important for you, hope it lives up to it for you

Well Starfield is the benchmark. Game of the Generation.

 

[Editaur]

A very generous 88

 

[ecentre]

90+

 

[Heisenberg007]

Voting 85-90 because of the stupid media, but I hope Insomniac finally breaks the 90+ barrier.

Everything they have shown so far screams 90+.

 

[xHunter]

M Mystic_Wanderer just logged in, after last time posting in 2021 and 2017, just to vote here for 75-80 lmao. Who is using his alt?

 

[Dynasty8]

92.

 

[Drizzlehell]

I would buy those PS5 side plates if they were sold separately, lol. They look so cool.

 

[Physiognomonics]

It's Spider-man done by Insomniac. That won't score <75. When was the last time they made a 75 game?

 

[Terenty]

You don't have to be a Nostradamus to know it will get somewhere in high 80s low 90s no matter the quality

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

I love that OP went with visible votes with this poll. Should be fun once the reviews start dropping later today.

 

[Varteras]

No "Titties" option. Not voting.

Beyond pathetic these people are clearly touched in the head you can’t convince me otherwise.

Same here. I bought Spiderman a few months after launch on a sale not thinking I would love it. I was absolutely blown away.

 

[Kindela]

That's one way of looking at it. Or you just know it's going to be good enough to warrant high 80s low 90s based on company's track record.

 

[LastBattle]

My PS5 purchase rides on this being a must have

Maybe the real "tits" are the friends we'll make on the journey in this thread.

Oh don't be a boob.

 

[Hoppa]

88 optimistically but I'm not expecting anything other than another Insomniac Spiderman game

 

[DenchDeckard]

I bought a second PS5 so I can play this in my bedroom! lol

Insomniac won't let me down.

 

[Auto_aim1]

First game sold 30 million. Scores don't matter for Spider-man. That said, 90.

 

[gimmmick]

I’d hate to be wrong but I think it will average around 86 when all said and done. It looks so good in motion.

 

[Heisenberg007]

Oh don't be a boob.

 

[Arun1910]

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.

 

[DJ12]

It's going to be so good even stevior is going to give it 8/10

 

[Varteras]

It's going to be so good even stevior is going to give it 8/10

That's just crazy talk.

 

[ShaiKhulud1989]

Low 90's or edging 80's is a safe bet. Release trailer was so good it's surreal.

 

[alstrike]

I'm gonna go with a 92-93

 

[mrbaba]

I'm calling 90 on the dot.

 

[Frexerik88]

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.
