I dont like how they kept so much the same, but thats about everything bad about this game compared to the 2018 one. I really love the new venom and story unlike 2018 story
I *LOVED* the first game. Finished my 5th playtrough before SM:MM came out and i have to say, i was rather disappointed. It felt more like a glorified expansion DLC rather than a „Sequel“
@Deathblooms9 Nah, Miles Morales has been around for years. The "black lives matter" mural in the game is definitely a virtue signal. I'm a black man and I understand why you would say this.
Lol sometimes they find the most complicated way to explain stuff like instead of saying "brother" they say your biological boy that was born to your mother one year after you and now your related
I absolutely LOVE how the overhauled the air tricks you can do while webswinging around manhatten. It's such a small detail that makes the swinging look so much more dynamic. The way that moves now go over into other moves fluently and that Miles' swing animation even changes depending on what trick you just did is just mindblowing to me
@@craig3831 yeah, people are just so proud of themselves for correcting something that was in all likelihood a mistake that many people make all the time when texting.
I personally love that finishers are attached to combo count and not the focus bar in this game. I never found myself using finishers in the previous game because I didn't wanna impede my ability to heal
Just a clarification, performance mode is still in 4k. It just doesn't have ray tracing and other special settings turned on so it can hit the 60 fps. But both performance and cinematic modes can be in 4k.

Totally agree dude easily was worth the 50 bucks to me miles is such a awesome character the game just has a very fresh feel to it and it’s fun as hell
Falcon's review was as if he wasn't really sure about what he was saying like "I think this one is a buy?". Like wtf dude, are you that unprofessional?
Yeah Jake has better energy when it comes to reviews. I kinda get sick of listening to monotone Falcon when it comes to reviews. I've never heard Falcon get excited about anything. I get tempering your expecting but tbh I thinks Falcons are locked in a frozen tundra.
The game is phenomenal. Gameplay and fighting plus stealth is pretty amazing, they added quite a bit of new combat features, but the only flaw is if you grind games or can beat a game in one sitting, then you can do this in about a day which is what I did. Kinda disappointed at the length but still worth my money to see how good it looked and how fun it was for the day.

I found it way too short. It’s nothing more than a 2-year delayed DLC and wayyy too over priced. Penguinz0 nailed it in his review. Okay game that sells itself too high for a lack of content.
I dunno...after all the sinister 6 got together, it felt a lot like Arkham City. I’m not dissing either game tho. I loved them both, but they had the same vibe at one point
i've been playing on ps4 and there is a glitch on the pre-last mission where miles just pops in place randomly 😂 also one in a side mission where you can only see miles' head for like 3 seconds
I got the platinum trophy, it was so good that I wanted to play it back to back, the second playthrough only takes about 3.5-4 hours if you do just the story stuff. I highly recommend this game especially if you liked the first one!
EDIT: I have a spoiler review on my channel if you want a detailed explanation of my thoughts. be aware guys, the main story can be completed in about 6.5 hours... and there are so many collectibles with not much else. It was so clear this was meant to be DLC that was pushed to a full release game for a launch title
@Ethan Roberts have you played it? I have. The way the game has been made isn't typically like a normal game, as they advertised. There are 3 very distinct sections, shorter story, minimal character arcs. All signs pointing to this being a DLC rather than a fully planned game with a road map
I mean, does it make the game bad though. Even if it was intended to be as DLC? Personally, I think the story is very intriguing that I couldn't care less if it was 6.5 hours of gameplay. Plus, I am someone who does the collectibles and side missions first before proceeding to the main mission as soon as they pop up. So I can easily get a lot of gameplay content.
@@Lol-kd8dh Yeah, it can be. I got it on sale for $20 so pulled the trigger, but I feel like $60+ is not worth it considering you pay that price for huge games like RDR2, HZD, GoW etc.
Honestly, I loved how compact the game was. The story was a little short, but it was fun, and I liked it , and the side content was nice for me because it didn't have as many things that felt tedious. For example, there are only 6 enemy bases compared to the many more in the first game, and there are only 16 time capsules compared to the 50 backpacks in the first one. It made it a lot easier to 100% the game and I loved it.
The only thing I can complain about if I was forced to nitpick is length. I was so enthralled by Miles story that I didn't want it to end. I went into it knowing it was gonna be short, but I'm still plenty hyped for whatever full blown sequel comes out next.
Just finished it. And although the main villain (The Tinkerer) is a really annoying character, the story is on par with the first game (even if it's shorter). Really good game. A must play for those who like the first.
The ending was almost as impactful as the first game, it’s not on the level of the first games ending but it is pretty damn close. Aside a few glitches here and there I really enjoyed my experience with the game. I played it on the PS4 so I didn’t experience all the upgrades the PS5 brings but it’s still fun as hell.
Just bought it on PC and then saw it's only 7-8h long... I'm a bit pissed about the price now but I loved the first game. Played it on PS4 when it first released and then again on PC to see it in splendid 4k ray traced glory.
I just got it on PC and I’m loving it so far, I also didn’t pay anything for it so I don’t have to worry about the price. When I complete this one, I’m going to go play the other one
Love the original game. I especially liked how long the game was. Now hearing that this game is "Half as long as the Original." That along with the price stopped me from buying it.
A cool detail they added is when you play in 60fps mode and enter photo mode it switches to fidelity textures for the highest quality photo. Nice touch 👌🏻
This game is astounding on ps5. Especially inside a building at night time, you can totally tell this is a new generation. I can't wait to see what ps5 has in store if MM was a launch game.
@@anthonybermudez4942 I mean Jake was pretty open about the fact he wasn't into the new Assassin's creed game. He said in it the first minutes, when he could have just sugar coat it
@@cjsjdcjsjdxahxjs2165 i wonder if they will use the Prowler story from Spider-verse... Insomniac could still do an original story, or even an original take on the existing story instead
I’m blown away by this game. Yes, it’s the same stuff as the 2018, but this has so much more than I was expecting. The story is AWESOME and it looks amazing with impressive set pieces.
@@shaunisaac1702 No... people saying it's shit move to realase a game for $50 for 8 hours.. while the 1st part was $60 for 17 hours It's different things between "it's shitty price " Vs "it's a shitty game"
I was so addicted to the first game (mind you I don’t really like to “grind” in games) but I found all 55 backpacks, all black cats, and all the challenges (to at least level 2) in the course of 2 days and beat the story in about 4. I highly recommend the first one I’m a little late on picking up the second but I have high expectations and really only bought the first so the second would make sense. I love miles.
Taskmaster challenges made me stop at the lvl 2 too. Too annoying to try to max out all of them. I may buy Miles Morales on PC too but only on a hefty sale. Edit: As I am playing DLCs for the game for the first time I can add Screwball challenges to the list of annoying crap.
I dig that you brought up the swinging. I actually feel like the mechanics are different with miles. Going back and playing the original, Peter's swinging seems to control much better... im sure this is just totally in my head lol but it did feel that way for a while.
I got it for the ps4 and wish they worked more on optimizing it for the ps4 better than changing Peter's face... I don't care as much what he looks like either but some of these cutscenes are inexcusable! I have seen characters get stabbed with their own glasses break the space time continuum and T-pose............
@@chilldoc9638 I do, I got both Xbox and ps4 but I don’t got the game bc I got no money :( it would be nice if someone shared play with me but I doubt someone will

@@whoelsebutmatty I'm so fucking hyped for the next one! Rumours say itll be here next year but I think itll be 2022. Either way I just wanna see what happens next
I've already beaten the story and it was very good despite being so much shorter and I hope they do a full on miles game in the future (instead of just being a glorified expansion) cause I really like the characters. now I just need to do all the side quests.
I don’t care what any one says.. even if it is similar I absolutely LOVE this game. I loved the first game soo much I felt as if I didn’t get enough of it soo this game is a 10 for me 🙌🏼
@@Hitithardify yea but they improve everything else. And who cares about his face, yes he looks weird now, but the last one didnt look right either. It was too squashed.
I got this game today, had a full free day and I just went through the entire game and have completed the side missions. A little bit overpriced for the amount of content you get but not so big to make it a deal breaker! Great game all around and I love some of the throwbacks to the main game!
As someone who's first real spiderman game is this one. I decided to play on hard mode for my first time...Yes it's extremely brutal if you have no idea what you're doing. I died so many countless times but I also got better at the combat from trial and error. I learned to adapt to the new controls that I'm not familiar with. I think it's pretty fun even if I felt overwhelmed in the first few hours. I struggle remembering all the combos for different things. I haven't beat the game yet I just bought it yesterday and I must say I'm glad I gave this game A go. It's something completely new to me and for anyone still hesitant to try it I say buy it when it's on sale. I only paid 21 dollars in the ps5 store. The game is fun and brutal but it has A lot of ways you can approach combat it feels. Also side note This game is gorgeous when you're swinging around on the buildings with the sky in the background makes some stunning shots. so far I give this game 8 out of 10 so far but who knows my opinion could change in A few hours when I play more.
If you want this game I highly suggest it. I finished it in a day it was that good but what blew it out of the park for me was the music, the music was absolutely amazing so definitely buy this game
I love that ceiling and wall takedowns are a thing now. I don’t recall it be in the first one. Honestly, my only issue is the frame rate drop when I’m swinging. Granted, I’m playing it on the first gen PS4, so it’s understandable.
Sorry, I just want to correct something. This will include spoilers to the unlockable powers though. The venom powers aren't just the venom punch, they include the punch, slamming onto the ground, dashing toward and throwing an enemy, a jump which you can use to bring enemies up with you, and the ability to quickly gain height or speed while traversing. You can also save your venom power and later use it to explode and knock out all enemies around you. Of course, it's integrated into other things, like when you snatch a weapon from somebody you electrocute it and the next person it hits gets electrified, also when you do finger guns at civilians electricity comes out of the fingers. There are also takedowns and finishers that involve his venom powers. He also has the ability to extract energy, and the ability to power up electrical devices. Oh and there's a feature where you can make web lines connecting to each other, and then finally connecting to a door, and then electrify that web to open the door. You can also use it to immediately electrify someone who hits you.
This comment is kinda late, but this game is soo worth it! One of the best story game experiences, there are some things to fix but I never got bored playing it. The webswinging and fighting are always so fun even if you did it thousand times earlier.
I feel like this game did a good job of distinguishing miles' own power/moveset. Hope the next game really utilizes both "spidermen" or has some miles dlc or smth
Im kind of concerned with how this game is. I'm sure it's great but it just sounds like a short slight DLC of the same game as before. I really just want a new game not extra stuff to the original.
The model is a different person than the voice actor. Yuri Lowenthal still is the voice but they're using a different face. Original - John Bubniak New - Ben Jordan
@@suda_lifts in that case Batman is a 300 hour game with no clues and taking the riddler trophies slow. I wish there was an average game time for this sort of stuff
Basically, if you loved the first game. There’s no way you wouldn’t love this one. If you didn’t love the first game, then you won’t love this one.

@@Lol-kd8dh Yeah, it can be. I got it on sale for $20 so pulled the trigger, but I feel like $60+ is not worth it considering you pay that price for huge games like RDR2, HZD, GoW etc.
Wow seems like a total waste of money to rush through it also you should lay off the meth
Gameranx progress over the years has been nuts dude I trust this channels reviews more then I trust myself.
Honestly, I loved how compact the game was. The story was a little short, but it was fun, and I liked it , and the side content was nice for me because it didn't have as many things that felt tedious. For example, there are only 6 enemy bases compared to the many more in the first game, and there are only 16 time capsules compared to the 50 backpacks in the first one. It made it a lot easier to 100% the game and I loved it.
Probably cause it’s not only to help miles, but keep us occupied until spider-man 2
Best change was that the bases only had a set number of goons instead of six waves each and you could do them all in stealth mode if you wanted to.
The only thing I can complain about if I was forced to nitpick is length. I was so enthralled by Miles story that I didn't want it to end. I went into it knowing it was gonna be short, but I'm still plenty hyped for whatever full blown sequel comes out next.
yeah i really love miles character i hope he’s playable in 2
Just finished it. And although the main villain (The Tinkerer) is a really annoying character, the story is on par with the first game (even if it's shorter). Really good game. A must play for those who like the first.
My sentiments exactly. The Tinkerer was a little annoying at times but overall good game
@AvengingFossil What do you mean?
I think the first games story was way better but that’s just me
@@rh371 I mean it’s not really a fair comparison cause the first game had way more time to do way more things while this game is barely half of thay
Definitely not at that price though. Its not worth that price one bit
This game was way better and interesting than watchdogs that’s for sure. That game was a bland glitch filled mess.
Yeah, that's why I mostly wait to buy games produced by infamous dev teams like Ubisoft and EA.
Valhalla is too glitchy and boring too im only 8hours in tho so i cant fully judge yet
@@imaginarychip4916 i'm 12hours in and i'm enjoying valhalla. The graphics fighting and details...
Two very different games lol
What did you expect?
The ending was almost as impactful as the first game, it’s not on the level of the first games ending but it is pretty damn close. Aside a few glitches here and there I really enjoyed my experience with the game. I played it on the PS4 so I didn’t experience all the upgrades the PS5 brings but it’s still fun as hell.
nothing will ever be as impactful as that second "you knew!" or "Take off that mask... I want to see my nephew"
@@JozieXP I agree that scene is a tear jerker, Miles scene is more bitter sweet with some sad aspects.
the ps5 version differs other than in the graphics?
@@human9257 most Just graphics and no loading screens when fast travelling (you can turn them on if you want to see them)
@@ThatOneDude1509 so no fast travel for ps4?
Just bought it on PC and then saw it's only 7-8h long... I'm a bit pissed about the price now but I loved the first game. Played it on PS4 when it first released and then again on PC to see it in splendid 4k ray traced glory.
I just got it on PC and I’m loving it so far, I also didn’t pay anything for it so I don’t have to worry about the price. When I complete this one, I’m going to go play the other one
@@DARK_AMBIGUOUS how did you get it free?
I got the game on sale for $21
Got it for 21 just now. Should I play the other ones first?

@@arsenelupin9697 welcome
Love the original game. I especially liked how long the game was. Now hearing that this game is "Half as long as the Original." That along with the price stopped me from buying it.
yeah but replayability is really good.
just wait for it to go on sale for like 30 bucks and your good
Yeah I finished the story in one day and I didn’t rush it I did all the activities and crimes still completed in one day it’s to short
He forgot to add how Miles leaps off of rooftops and goes into a dive with the exaggerated swagger of a black teen! That’s the best part of the game!
A cool detail they added is when you play in 60fps mode and enter photo mode it switches to fidelity textures for the highest quality photo. Nice touch 👌🏻
3:30 I like that they put the insomniac logo in the mall. Its cool that you get thrown through it.
This game is astounding on ps5. Especially inside a building at night time, you can totally tell this is a new generation. I can't wait to see what ps5 has in store if MM was a launch game.
even on ps4 the games amazing i’m just imagining the ps5
@@voodo8715 check my videos. I have uploaded some gameplay clips!
@@gamingjay141 Ok i’ll look
I thought the whole point of this game was that it runs at 120 fps like all games on the PS5, what is this 30 fps/60 fps bullshit?
even when he says something amazing about the game he's voice sounds like he doesn't really like it 😂
Yeah you don't really know when Falcon is excited. It's harder to notice than with Jake, who is an open book in comparison
@@radpunk5144 Yeah!
The guy in this video is the worst narrator on earth
well tbh most reviews cater to saying positives even when its tru on the sony games or they get mass disliked by the fans
@@anthonybermudez4942 I mean Jake was pretty open about the fact he wasn't into the new Assassin's creed game. He said in it the first minutes, when he could have just sugar coat it
"The brother of his deceased dad.." you mean his uncle?
Pretty sure he did that to avoid giving away the prowler and stuff since basically everyone's seen into the spider verse and knows what's gonna happen
Oops I didn’t mean to steal your comment lol
yes?
@@cjsjdcjsjdxahxjs2165 i wonder if they will use the Prowler story from Spider-verse... Insomniac could still do an original story, or even an original take on the existing story instead
I’m blown away by this game. Yes, it’s the same stuff as the 2018, but this has so much more than I was expecting. The story is AWESOME and it looks amazing with impressive set pieces.
Is this a miracle or something?
Saw the video before purchasing the game.
Before *you* buy
I feel like $50 is worth more than 10 hours
Bruh
Yeah this game is great but it’s too short
Depends on what you play with bro
@@mstluq7573 everybody telling the game is shit bc it is short.WHAT A STUPID REASON
@@shaunisaac1702 No... people saying it's shit move to realase a game for $50 for 8 hours.. while the 1st part was $60 for 17 hours
It's different things between "it's shitty price " Vs "it's a shitty game"
Why do Miles be shakin' his hands AT me yet he do be just lookin' away
3:33 miles swings off an insomniac logo lol just realized that
The Spider-Verse suit effect had me shook!! I’m so happy they included that.
0:36
"It uses the same city map", uh yeah, it's still set in NYC, it can't be configured any other way. It is what it is because it's NYC.
couldve easily expanded the map by making it bigger though
@Ethan Roberts The first game only took place in Manhattan. So if they wanted to expanded the map they could use other sectors of New York City
@@GeneratedPerson But it's just a small spin-off game I seriously don't get how people expected huge overhauls with this game.
@@stephano2424 Yes, but this is a smaller expansion not a sequel they couldn't have done much with it.
There are a lot of games set in NYC and they all look different.
Just bought it today for 20 bucks. It's awesome 😁
I was so addicted to the first game (mind you I don’t really like to “grind” in games) but I found all 55 backpacks, all black cats, and all the challenges (to at least level 2) in the course of 2 days and beat the story in about 4. I highly recommend the first one I’m a little late on picking up the second but I have high expectations and really only bought the first so the second would make sense. I love miles.
Taskmaster challenges made me stop at the lvl 2 too. Too annoying to try to max out all of them. I may buy Miles Morales on PC too but only on a hefty sale.
Edit: As I am playing DLCs for the game for the first time I can add Screwball challenges to the list of annoying crap.
Just brought the miles morales game on a 50 percent discount from the PlayStation store, can’t wait to play the game!
“The brother of a deceased dad” u could’ve just said “uncle” I swear u find the most difficult ways of saying stuff for no reason.
It's so they could point out his dad is deceased i guess.
He does it to fill time so his videos can be longer for monetization.
@@neronah7349 lol he missed 3 seconds
I dig that you brought up the swinging. I actually feel like the mechanics are different with miles. Going back and playing the original, Peter's swinging seems to control much better... im sure this is just totally in my head lol but it did feel that way for a while.
I got it for the ps4 and wish they worked more on optimizing it for the ps4 better than changing Peter's face... I don't care as much what he looks like either but some of these cutscenes are inexcusable! I have seen characters get stabbed with their own glasses break the space time continuum and T-pose............
Man I want it so bad :(
@@Nes5ity U don't have a console?
@@chilldoc9638 I do, I got both Xbox and ps4 but I don’t got the game bc I got no money :( it would be nice if someone shared play with me but I doubt someone will
I cant wait till more people have played this game to talk about that end credits scene
i feel this, waiting for a friend to purchase it in 3 weeks time so once he's complete it there'll finally be someone to talk to about THAT post credit scene
@@whoelsebutmatty I'm so fucking hyped for the next one! Rumours say itll be here next year but I think itll be 2022. Either way I just wanna see what happens next
Check out my Miles Morales review if you have the exaggerated swagger of a black teen brah
I've already beaten the story and it was very good despite being so much shorter and I hope they do a full on miles game in the future (instead of just being a glorified expansion) cause I really like the characters. now I just need to do all the side quests.
That after credits scene does imply dlc or another sequel
But the length was a good change of pace since AC valhalla is so looooong
Bruh I complete the game and still playing it and need to complete assassin's creed 🤣🤣
@@cread_227 ac valhalla is dog shit, not wasting more time on that fucking game
Loving this game so far, and it looks amazing on the PS5. I just wish they added the Trip Mine gadget, that was my favorite one in the original game.
does the ps4 edition inclide the base game or it's only miles morales?
I don’t care what any one says.. even if it is similar I absolutely LOVE this game. I loved the first game soo much I felt as if I didn’t get enough of it soo this game is a 10 for me 🙌🏼
I’m gonna be playing this on PS4 and then when I get ps5, playing the remaster and then miles on ps5
Rich
Just stick with the original, they change Peter's face in the remaster and it looks bad.
@@Hitithardify yea but they improve everything else.
And who cares about his face, yes he looks weird now, but the last one didnt look right either. It was too squashed.
I think you should change the name of this series to After You Buy cause I always end up watching these after I buy the product 😂
Absolutely loving it. Web swinging is a joy in performance RT. Really loved the story.
Mann the swingin caught me off guard when he do the dive tricks on his phone or when he kick his feet up hands behind his head🤣🔥🔥🔥
i like how they developed miles as a character. they took elements of the spiderverse miles and put it in the game and i really like that.
I got this game today, had a full free day and I just went through the entire game and have completed the side missions. A little bit overpriced for the amount of content you get but not so big to make it a deal breaker! Great game all around and I love some of the throwbacks to the main game!
Idk the price of the game... But anything more than 30$ is unfair
As someone who's first real spiderman game is this one. I decided to play on hard mode for my first time...Yes it's extremely brutal if you have no idea what you're doing. I died so many countless times but I also got better at the combat from trial and error. I learned to adapt to the new controls that I'm not familiar with. I think it's pretty fun even if I felt overwhelmed in the first few hours. I struggle remembering all the combos for different things. I haven't beat the game yet I just bought it yesterday and I must say I'm glad I gave this game A go. It's something completely new to me and for anyone still hesitant to try it I say buy it when it's on sale. I only paid 21 dollars in the ps5 store. The game is fun and brutal but it has A lot of ways you can approach combat it feels. Also side note This game is gorgeous when you're swinging around on the buildings with the sky in the background makes some stunning shots. so far I give this game 8 out of 10 so far but who knows my opinion could change in A few hours when I play more.
If you want this game I highly suggest it. I finished it in a day it was that good but what blew it out of the park for me was the music, the music was absolutely amazing so definitely buy this game
I love that ceiling and wall takedowns are a thing now. I don’t recall it be in the first one. Honestly, my only issue is the frame rate drop when I’m swinging. Granted, I’m playing it on the first gen PS4, so it’s understandable.
Sorry, I just want to correct something. This will include spoilers to the unlockable powers though. The venom powers aren't just the venom punch, they include the punch, slamming onto the ground, dashing toward and throwing an enemy, a jump which you can use to bring enemies up with you, and the ability to quickly gain height or speed while traversing. You can also save your venom power and later use it to explode and knock out all enemies around you. Of course, it's integrated into other things, like when you snatch a weapon from somebody you electrocute it and the next person it hits gets electrified, also when you do finger guns at civilians electricity comes out of the fingers. There are also takedowns and finishers that involve his venom powers. He also has the ability to extract energy, and the ability to power up electrical devices. Oh and there's a feature where you can make web lines connecting to each other, and then finally connecting to a door, and then electrify that web to open the door. You can also use it to immediately electrify someone who hits you.
This comment is kinda late, but this game is soo worth it! One of the best story game experiences, there are some things to fix but I never got bored playing it. The webswinging and fighting are always so fun even if you did it thousand times earlier.
I feel like this game did a good job of distinguishing miles' own power/moveset. Hope the next game really utilizes both "spidermen" or has some miles dlc or smth
Comment is aging gracefully.
Im kind of concerned with how this game is. I'm sure it's great but it just sounds like a short slight DLC of the same game as before. I really just want a new game not extra stuff to the original.
came to watch this in anticipation for the pc release, cant wait!
The tone on his voice gives away how awesome this game is lol
Don’t get me wrong I am in love with this game! Maybe more than the OG, but it’s kinda like Far cry new dawn to far cry five.
Kinda like an Uncharted: Lost Legacy
I am still not happy they changed Peter's face.
I absolutely loved the first game and I'm also loving this one too. I hope they release some DLC for it too
does the ps4 edition inclide the base game or it's only miles morales?
@@erronblack3462 only Miles Morales

Ngl if they can make new games every two years i will be fine with the short length. So you dont have to wait to long for the next installment.

According to Howlongtobeat this is a 6 hour game.

It’s a DLC just the cutscenes on youtube
It all depends if you just speed through it, can’t forget about side missions and collectibles to

Love at 3:32 insomniac added their logo in the mall, thats an awesome touch
The way Mrs. Morales cooks Puerto Rican food and says Te quiero(I love you) is just full of the exaggerated swagger of a Hispanic mother. Lol 😆
