I haven't played a Spiderman game since Spiderman 2 for the PS2 and was torn between Spiderman: Remastered and Spiderman: Miles Morales. Remastered is older and has overwhelmingly positive reviews while Miles Morales is newer with only positive reviews. I welcome and will read all opinions. Thanks for your time.

Remastered is a full game. Miles Morales is a follow-up game and feels more like a long expqnsion pack.

Both are great, even though Miles Morales’ story is significantly shorter it is still very good but the PlayStation spider man is by far my favourite iteration of Spider man

I did not know they were linked. Thanks for the info!
Shozzy_D OP t1_je597l9 wrote
I did read it was shorter. I guess it's the same engine and game mechanics then. Not surprised and honestly probably a good thing in some ways. Thanks for your input!
Shozzy_D OP t1_je59dyg wrote
So that's a vote for Remastered if I'm understanding correct?
_Nova_Corps t1_je59rtk wrote
It’s a vote for both
_Nova_Corps t1_je59xeh wrote
Play the Remastered one first then play miles morales, the only reason morales received bad scores or reviews is because it was a short game for a full game price
New-Breed t1_je5a8td wrote
I agree with the others saying play both since the narratives go together. But if we're assessing each individually, I found myself slightly more in love with Miles Morales because of how embedded he was with the community.

Treat morales as dlc for remastered.

Miles is a fantastic game that really helps build the story of one of the best Spidermans. Definitely play it after tho as it fits at the end of the main game. It is kinda like whip cream topping on an awesome ice cream sandwich.

Miles Morales is basically a large DLC pack and follows on the heels of Spider-Man.
Get Spider-Man first, and if you want more, get Miles Morales.

Buy Miles' Ultimate Edition. It comes with everything. Spidey Remastered all the DLC and Miles.

Spiderman's Maximum Carnage, snes, also had music from green jelly.

I enjoyed the mechanics and the story on Morales. The other spider game got to hard and frustrating for me after the jailbreak.

Thanks kind of what I thought might've happened. Thanks for the advice.

Yeah I've heard people claim they likes the story of Miles Morales more.

Acknowledged, thanks.

Sounds very sweet. 😊

This seems to be a common opinion, thanks.

Well that's certainly worth considering, thanks!

meh. but i guess if you liked spiderman 2, it'll be fine to you. personally i got bored pretty quick with spiderman ps4, but it wasnt as repeditive as spiderman 2 ps2

Miles Morales takes place shortly after the events of Spider-man Remastered.
BestAccount69 t1_je5ukev wrote
they are both good games, the first one is much longer.
SuperScrapper t1_je5uqe4 wrote
Been playing the remastered first and having a fun time. I had the game on ps but could never play it, so I got it on pc so I can play on there plus the deck, which has been pretty good so far.
After I finish it, I’ll be playing the Miles Morales edition. :)
SuperScrapper t1_je5uumt wrote
And don’t forget the next Spider-Man 2 game is coming out soonish(tm), I think. I hope they put it out on pc sooner rather than later.
Shozzy_D OP t1_je5vflf wrote
The last comparable game I played was Red Dead 2 which I sunk 100 hours into beating the campaign. Is it immersive like Red Dead can be?
Crkhd3 t1_je5yxcz wrote
If you have the money definitely get the deluxe version of Miles Morales so you also get the remaster but keep in mind also if you are still on the fence the regular version of Miles Morales is on sale for 20 bucks right now at least in the US
Plug_daughter t1_je63g9v wrote
I tried playing Miles Morales and stopped after 30 minutes. Just didn't like it at all and never returned to it.
Shozzy_D OP t1_je66887 wrote
It was 30 on sale for me, while remastered is 40ish.

As you know Miles Morales is shorter. BUT the web swinging is the best part of both games obviously and it is improved and feels more satisfying and agile in Miles Morales. But then you have Remastered which has better story and is a solid first, original game while Miles Morales is just a short sequel.

Remastered first, then Miles Morales. Miles Morales is kinda like Spiderman 1.5 in the narrative they are telling with the video games.

One_Disaster245 t1_je6djlj wrote
Why do people say he's the best Spiderman? Is it because of the animated movie?
One_Disaster245 t1_je6dq1b wrote
I think it was only 40usd though? So not full price.
BirdieJ24 t1_je6e1ct wrote
Miles Morales has better and more refined gameplay. Remastered has a better story imo and is longer
One_Disaster245 t1_je6elq0 wrote
No definitely not. It's much more gamey. Has collectibles boss fights and awesome gameplay mechanics. The story meh and it's not immersive at all since there are no mechanics specifically for immersing the player like in Red Dead. Like for example characters actually doing shit they would do in real life, taking care of your horse, realistic reactions from npcs to your actions and side activities you can do like poker or hunting.
​
Don't get this comment wrong it's a fantastic game and I'd recommend it to almost everyone, but for very different reasons than RDR2.
tehsax t1_je6g3ru wrote
I liked it more than the main game. I thought the story was less convoluted with the tighter focus on just one antagonist and I loved the entire vibe around the Harlem neighborhood, with the hip hop beats in the soundtrack while swinging through the city and everything. I also liked Miles more than Peter. No specific reason, I just found him even more likeable.
Yes, it's shorter, but that also results in a more streamlined, focussed campaign, I think. Having said that, I'd also definitely recommend both. The swinging has a Mario-like quality in the sense that simply moving around is a lot of fun in and of itself. That's a very rare quality in video games, and Insomniac nailed it.
Crkhd3 t1_je6gfdq wrote
Then I would recommend the remaster since it's a whole lot more game

Maximum Carnage hands down
EvilOctopusInk t1_je717vk wrote
I actually played Miles first (because my nephews wanted to play that more) and then went back to play Spider-man. I’m glad I did because I would have totally been disappointed the other way around. I liked Spider-man much better and it was a much fuller game.
admiralrico411 t1_je725nw wrote
I like how even tho they are essentially both spider man there is a distinct difference in playing them. Like Peter is exp and has years of knowledge and ability. His moves are more fluid from fighting to even web slinging whereas Miles feels much more like a beginner(at least till the end part). It is cool they manage to subtly tweak the controls to make them feel different
Shozzy_D OP t1_je7790e wrote
Ooh web swinging IS the best part probably next to the flashy combat.
EvilOctopusInk t1_je7e3wh wrote
For sure. I also noticed, especially when web swinging, Miles moves a little faster and jumps and little higher…
Shozzy_D OP t1_je7h9vu wrote
Well like is there like pedestrias taking photos of Spidey when he swings around? I'd call that immersive to some level. Is the world believably Spider man's stomping grounds? Or do people just ignore him?
farendsofcontrast t1_je8fpow wrote
I felt like miles morales was just a huge dlc and not a complete game. I still loved playing both games though. They were fantastic on the SteamDeck which is something I never expected. If it was me I would play remastered first and then miles morales.

They have some reactions to you, but you're not really supposed to be down on the ground much so they're generally just walking around and have a few voicelines.
Lee_Doff t1_je97cvx wrote
no. and i spent probably 2 years playing RDR2. but maybe thats why i didnt like spiderman so much. i bought it on sale right after i stopped playing red dead. its hard to go back to playing games that are 'less alive' than GTA or RD
Lee_Doff t1_je97h95 wrote
its a lot more like 'scripted animations' rather than feeling like it is authentic reactions to things. so maybe the first time someone asks to get a picture with you its kinda cool, but the 100th time...
Cliper11298 t1_jeczcba wrote
Miles Morales is more of an expansion but it feels better. The remaster is a lot bigger
Aredditdorkly t1_je55s22 wrote
You'll want to play both.
They are linked though so if you care about thst you should play Remastered first.
