What Makes Miles Morales The Best Spider-Man Game - The Review Crew Ep3

Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales is an incredible companion piece to Spider-Man 2018, but how does it fare as its own standalone story? We got reviewers from IGN, Mashable, and Kinda Funny together to discuss!

When a war between Roxxon, a devious energy corporation, and The Underground, a hi-tech gang, threatens his new home of Harlem, Miles will learn that with great power also comes great responsibility. To save the people he loves and all of Marvel?s New York, Miles will have to take up the mantle of Spider-Man and make it his own.
