Alan Wake II is a remarkable triumph in creativity and gaming as a whole.
Spider-Man 2 is undoubtedly an improvement. However, both the original and Miles Morales were still great looking games with great stories and great gameplay. So while Spider-Man 2 improves, each change feels so incremental that in the end its a significantly less impressive experience. The most impressive new thing is the very quick fast travel, but who really needs that in a game where the traversal is its most appealing mechanic?
Combat, music and art style excel while the story is various forms of underwhelming throughout and has perhaps the most unsatisfying ending I've experienced this year
