Marvel's Spider-Man on the PlayStation is certainly not the first game to ever feature the big apple in the world of gaming, and isn't even the first Spider-Man game to bring it to life.

But there's just something about Spider-Man's leap to the next generation of consoles that makes this one of the most beautiful open world games ever released. Whether it's during the day, dusk, rain or night, swinging through the bustling streets of New York always feels like a thrilling experience.

The streets are constantly lined with life and the hustle and bustle players would expect to find in NYC, while the rooftops and skyscrapers are just as detailed and worth visiting.

The issue of creating vibrant and interesting open worlds has notoriously plagued Spider-Man and most superhero video games over the years, but in Marvel's Spider-Man players are able to swing through one of the most activity-packed and beautiful worlds in the medium.
