Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

Play it on: PS5
Current goal: Get that platinum trophy

While I might have already wrapped the main story on Spider-Man 2, I have a lot of side content spread across New York City yet to complete. So this weekend, between sessions of Super Mario Bros Wonder, I will start chipping away at everything left in the game.

Usually, I’m not one to cross off every item in an open-world game’s long checklist of “Things To Do.” Too many other games to play! But with Spider-Man 2 (and the previous entries in the series) I always enjoy getting the platinum trophy. That’s partially because none of the trophies in the game are too intense or hard to get, and also because Spider-Man 2 is just a joy to play. I’ve already spent hours searching for collectibles and chests in Spider-Man 2 and not a moment of it will have felt like a slog. Making a massive game fun to 100-percent is impressive, and something I wish was true with all open-world games. — Zack Zwiezen
