# 🧵 Where It All Began

For me, this wasn’t just another superhero game. This was the first one — not just the first time I played as Spider-Man, but honestly, the first time I felt like I was part of something bigger than just the screen.

It was the start of my gaming journey.

There’s a kind of magic that happens when you swing between Manhattan skyscrapers and realize: this feels right. This feels like mine.

# 🗽 The City That Breathes

Insomniac didn’t just recreate New York — they gave it a pulse:

Citizens react to your movement
The sunsets feel nostalgic, even on a first playthrough
Rooftop to street-level transitions are seamless and alive

Every corner became a place worth visiting. Even if I had nowhere to go in-game, I’d still swing just for the joy of it.

# 🤺 Combat & Fluidity

Fast-paced and responsive
Customizable gadgets and skills
That perfect blend of improvisation and rhythm

You’re not just fighting. You’re performing.

# 🧑‍🔬 Peter Parker, Unmasked

The game strikes a rare balance:

Being Spider-Man is exhilarating
Being Peter Parker is relatable

You feel his weight — the rent, the guilt, the science projects that never quite pay off (pun intended). And somehow, it makes the mask mean more.

# 🧠 My Reflection

Before this, games were just things other people played. Spider-Man changed that. It handed me the controller and said, “You belong here too.”

I didn’t just play it — I discovered something about myself in the process.

⭐ My Origin Story

# 🎮 Personal Notes

First console: PS4 Pro
Favorite suit: Advanced Suit (original white spider)
Moment that hooked me: web-zipping through Central Park at sunset, no mission — just motion
Time played: Too much. Never enough.

# 🏙️ TL;DR

The game that made me a gamer. A flawless blend of style, emotion, and swing mechanics so good they’re still unmatched.
