10 Reasons Spider-Man Is The PS4's Best Exclusive

9. A Visual Marvel

Uncharted 4 nailed all the minute human animations of Nathan Drake; from wincing at near-misses in gunfights, to running his hand along ancient masonry. Horizon Zero Dawn crafted a gorgeous, jaw dropping open world just begging to be lost within, and God of War made every tree, snowflake and steamy breath feel natural and damn-near photorealistic.

But none of the vast number of visual stunners on Sony’s premiere system thus far have been as universally beautiful as Marvel’s Spider-Man.

Every inch of Spider-Man’s suit is immaculately detailed from the soles of his boots, to the individual threads of his mask. Every alley, rooftop and park of Insomniac’s New York feels alive and lived-in, and every punch, kick, and jump looks natural and fluid.

A jack of all trades and a master of all, Spider-Man delivers on every single visual front, a technical triumph to truly set it apart from the dozens of exclusive graphical powerhouses to be found on the PS4.
