The Playstation 4 release of Marvel’s Spider-Man was an instant hit with gamers. Flying through the city streets of New York City has never felt so good. Inside this massive open-world game was a large collection of suits that players could achieve. Some add special abilities, while others are merely cosmetic embellishments that just make Spider-Man look cooler. Each Spidey suit is locked behind either a mission that needs to be completed or a level that must be reached.
The suits inside Marvel’s Spider-Man are amazing fun to experiment with. The spectacular amount of time that Insomniac Games has put into the details is a sensational homage to the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man we’ve grown up with. This Playstation 4 exclusive is superior in every way to Spidey games of the past and holds up as the ultimate version of Spider-Man. Picking a suit for Spider-Man can be a tough choice, do you go with the MK III which reflects bullets back to enemies and is incredibly useful during battles. Or is the right choice the Vintage Comic Book Suit which simply looks perfect but doesn’t add anything gameplay-wise.
