![]() ![]() Speaking of DualSense, Spider-Man Miles Morales was my first fully fledged game where I got to use Sony’s new-gen controller and all its new bells and whistles. And Venom-infused takedown animations are beautiful, with electricity sparking and bouncing around Miles and foes in gorgeous fashion. You can hold down L1 to prep an attack and start to feel the rumble, while initiating a Venom-ified right hook will send a rumble from the left side of the controller through to the right. Those abilities also bring about one of the more fun uses of the PS5’s DualSense controller, as the crinkle of electricity discharging around Miles is simulated via its haptic feedback. ![]() Mixing them in with Miles’ basics attacks not only saved me in the midst of a packed battle, but also adds so much stylish flair and variety to how I approached brawls. Some of these Venom attacks (no relation to the symbiote guy) focus on one foe, while others allow for crowd control, and yet more can help get an air combo going while warding off enemies. After charging a meter in combat, Miles can unleash temporarily paralyzing bursts of current that pack a wallop. On the one hand there’s Miles’ bioelectricity, which is largely executed with L1 + a combo of face buttons. “On the combat side, Miles’ has a few new tricks that mix up the fun – as do enemies. He’ll occasionally spin around on his own web to reorient himself, but he’s also got a style Peter can’t match, including the coolest jumping-off-a-roof animation I can remember from any iteration of Spider-Man. On the animation side, watching the less-experienced Miles less delicately swing through the city is a treat. But beyond those fundamentals and some comparable moves, Insomniac has done a flat-out fantastic job of adding depth to Miles’ movement and fighting skills to allow him to stand out as his own character instead of feeling like another cosmetic reskin. ![]() #The falconeer reviews zipMiles controls largely the same as Peter when it comes to the basics: R2 to swing, L2 + R2 to zip to specific points, square to attack, circle to dodge, and triangle for a distance closing web pull. What’s Up, Danger?Slipping back into the swinging and fighting mechanics of Miles Morales was as comfortable as it was exhilarating. #The falconeer reviews fullFor full stock details PS5 consoles, accessories and games check out our launch day buyer's guide.

Epic showdowns that send sparks flying, between new tech from the Tinkerer’s purples, Roxxon’s reds, and Miles’ own yellow bioelectricity offer beautiful, thrilling battles that range from boss fights that continue the first game’s strong tradition of memorable showdowns to street-level brawls that put Miles’ enhanced attacks to the test. Insomniac has found creative ways to work within the same overall setting of the original while not retreading too much of the same ground. #The falconeer reviews seriesI won’t spoil where any of the story takes Miles and his impressive supporting cast, but it’s a stirring and gripping Spidey tale that left me with goosebumps in its final moments, and the anticipation of seeing where this series goes next is a thrill in of itself.Of course, Miles’ story is filled with spectacular action alongside that story. “Miles is fallible because he’s so new to the gig, and the story doesn’t shy away from his mistakes, like how his interactions with a personal friend can have big ramifications for his superhero alter-ego – but it also continuously shows how working toward something better is a process, one that is stronger when built on trust and community. ![]()
