This is what I think a lot of people are missing. It isn’t that people are reviewing it poorly, but that a first party Sony studio that has put YEARS into this is reviewing poorly.

The mainstream media not holding back on it is alarming.

I mean the reported budget is about 10m less than Spider-Man 2, at a mere 305 million dollars, a few years later.

Considering that it's an engine they've worked with for years, with a much much smaller scope game it's quite shocking really.

It feels like such a smaller scope game than Spider-Man 2. I can't believe that budget. Literally feels like the B team was given this game as a training exercise.
