This is our review for Marvel's Spider-Man 2, Insomniac Games' latest entry in their Spidey saga.
Spider-Man’s mythos begins with a radioactive bite. For over 60 years now, generations of writers, artists, actors, and animators have encouraged us to wish that we too were bitten. Be it Todd McFarlane’s detective noir run, the animated charm of the 1994 series, Tobey Maguire’s goofy charisma, or the Spider-Verse’s genre-bending Miles Morales, countless incarnations have spun unique takes on the character. Each one different, yet each offering escapism.
In between Marvel’s Spider-Man 1 and 2, Insomniac released a Miles Morales story. Already an established character in the first game, you watch as he warms up to the mantle of Spider-Man. Much of this is thanks to Peter’s deliberate absence from New York, with Miles filling in the ensuing power vacuum. The game works nicely thanks to this, however I don’t think I’m playing devil’s advocate when I say the idea of a dual narrative in SM2 worried me.
While all of this is happening, Peter struggles with the possibility of losing Aunt May’s house – financial troubles caused by his recent job loss. His worries are interrupted by the appearance of Harry Osborn, Norman Osborn’s evangelical son mysteriously cured from a life-threatening illness, who is also Peter’s best friend.
Morales has other moments to shine, most notably in his search for Mr Negative. Plot is carefully rationed between himself, Peter, and MJ, though Brooklyn’s Spider-Man is by no means a side-character. As a side note, I found it pretty amusing that during the game’s dramatic climax – Miles takes a moment to ask his crush out for a date.
