On paper, Spider-Man games have always been an exciting idea but in the past, the technology was not quite up to snuff in allowing game developers to create a successful experience—until now. Marvel’s Spider-Man, which won Best PS4 Game at Gamescom in Cologne, Germany last month, is poised to be the best Spider-Man game ever, offering beautiful rendered landscapes that legitimately make players feel like they are the web-slinging hero. The game presents a brand new story and enjoyable combat that evolves seamlessly between varying weather conditions and unique enemy battles. (Nicole Potter)
