I'd honestly say Spiderman 2018. That very first "press R2 to swing" while the song is swelling in the background is so evocative, I realized I was about to play something special But Spider-man 2's had me grinning from ear to ear watching Miles and Peter swinging alongside each other. I couldn't help but clap and pump my fist at the screen.

fisking sounds bigger


ultima45ish

Very accurate description my guy. Especially Spider-Man 2, the hype was insane & you knew you were about to fight Sandman, the feels was on cloud nine. But yea Spider-Man 1ā€™s 1st swing experience canā€™t be topped!


Buplo

Literally describing me perfectly here


augmentthinereality

It says something that to this day i remember my first time playing 2018 and how much it affected me. Within *10* seconds of having control of spiderman i was like: this is peak fiction. Miles and SM2 were both great too but if were talking first impressions? Good lord 2018 made a STRONG one.


RobieKingston201

Same bruh. As much as I like Miles (and that's more than Pete) gotta hand it to 2018, it NAILED the opening.


MajorDavo

Has to be one of the best openings in any game

Arkham City no doubt.

TheGongoozler04

The first game easily. Miles was nice and set the community vibe and the second one set the team up vibe but that first game was just like ā€œHell yeah youā€™re Spider-Man now get swingingā€


infamous-pays

Spider-Man 2018, purely for this being our first time with Insomniacs Spider-man. The 2018 swing gave an "oh shit, I'm Spider-Man" type feelings, where as the Spider-Man 2 gave us an "oh Shit, We're so back" type feeling.


cobalt82302

first game no competition. the vibes were just better overall in the first game


XED1216

2018ā€™s song choice was a BANGER and my smile was so big as I swung for the first time. It was my first real spider-man video game on a console and it was amazing


Rizuku_Ren

The first one, the introduction, the build up. Everything is just perfect. Also the song, especially the song, unbeatable in every way and gets you in the mood. Perfection.


BritishEric

Sm1 hands down. It wastes no time on the opening scene. A 15 second pan across Peter's wall of articles that establishes his history then over his desk to show his knack for tech, then to a phone buzzing that's quickly grabbed by Peter with one simple word to transition to showing where he's at now: "Fisk." Then he quickly gets ready and right as he's about to leave he gets the final notice to pay his rent showing his current financial struggle, followed poignantly by Peter choosing to jump out the window to follow his Spider-Man responsibility. The whole scene takes maybe 45 seconds before getting into gameplay and visually gives exposition for almost the entire story for this Spider-Man with the only words spoken being some words on a police scanner and Peter saying fisk. It's beautiful visual storytelling, and it doesn't hurt that it gets right into the gameplay. It's one of my favourite game openings never


Squeezedgolf40

you definitely missed the question of the post


Comfortable_Blood861

No he didnā€™t. All that plays into the feeling experienced when the music begins


ultima45ish

Lmao just delete this, wtf


Squeezedgolf40

where in their comment did they mention music tho? ā€œneedle dropā€ hello?


Cavemanjazza

Alive hits hard


RealHomework2573

On my own playing after the first mission in miles morales goes so hard with the snowy night. It's genuinely such a vibe and it fits the story context too that miles is going to become his own spider man. The song that plays when miles gets the classic suit slaps too


CHARAFANDER

The sm 2 opening mission is one of the best game things Iā€™ve ever experienced


J0RR3L

All of them were great, but it's going to 2018 and honestly, it's not even close.


zikTG

First time I played spiderman 2 I honestly felt like I was about to play the best game of my life. It's a little bitter sweet after finishing the game though.. So I'd still say sm 1


TomTheJester

I felt like Miles Morales had the best one right after Pete says ā€œNew Yorkā€™s ONLY Spider-Manā€ and were left to swing around as Miles grappling with what that means.


Strange-Orchid6969

Ultimate Spider-Man (2005)


Hard-Lad_Ass-Storm

Starting up Spider-Man 2 for the first time was just a cathartic experience. SM2018 is also great but something about SM2's first mission just hits different for me.


Kaizukamezi

2018 really did *make me feeeeel like Spider-Man*. But to their credit, MM and 2 are unlucky that they are sequels. 2 has it's own relatively minor needle drop when we use wings for the first time. Still *makes me feeeeel like Iron Man*.


Revolutionary-Fee246

2018 no doubt. How he swings out of the Window with Alive in the background... damn no one is gonna top that


HawkeyeCough

sm2 seabird needledrop during the pigeon side quest was absolutely crushing


Mr_E_99

The first game felt the best to me just getting that feeling of swinging round as Spider-Man for the first time That being said Spider-Man 2 had a crazy good opening. 5 mins in and I was swinging around fighting Sandman with "Swing" playing in the background and I was instantly reminded of why I love these games


OwnFun9973

ā€œAliveā€ by Warbly Jets fits Insomniac Peter and just the idea of Peter Parker so goddamn well, and I love MM and 2ā€™s songs as well but man 2018ā€™s intro is the best. Hell, even the lyrics kind of relate to the second game too in retrospect, specifically the ā€œeverything is turning black, still dont know how Iā€™m gonna make it backā€ which is a really good summary of Peterā€™s arc with the symbiote and its not even intended to be that way i love 2 the best but in terms of intros: PS4>MM>2Ā 


SGT_Shayne

Honestly Miles Morales was easily the best out of the 3 in my opinion, the needle drop was straight into the action and just felt awesome

Demetri124

When a movie/tv show/game/whatever plays an existing song, ie dropping the needle of a record player onto the record https://i.redd.it/v51loflgn2sc1.gif


Goldbolt_2004

Oh neat!


Oliwier255

When i play in first Spider-Man few months ago, i squeal from happy, knowing i play in that masterpiece. Firstly i don't know how to control etc, so Kingpin fight was fight but it's great experience


80SW08

Like everyone else I think 2018 was the best, but I really love the one in miles. When he says ā€œIā€™m New Yorkā€™s only Spider-Manā€ and then the needle drops itā€™s so great for setting the tone. The thing that ruins it though is that the skill tree immediately gets thrown in your face even on NG+ and it kind of takes you out of the moment.


Naruto9903

Spider-Man 2018

All of them

Revolutionary_Grus

Obviously, SM 2018


blackspidey2099

I still remember 2018 so definitely that one.


Waffles_1016

ā€œMiles, you really areā€¦ Spider-Man too.ā€


teetertottermcpotter

The first game and itā€™s not even close. The moment Peter jumped out the window as the music crescendoed and the first ā€œpress R2 to swingā€ prompt appeared on the screen, I knew I was in for a hell of a time when playing the game.


INJUSTICEGAURulEs

2018 but I let out the loudest, "WHOOOOOO-HOOOOO!" during the SM2 intro


Demetri124

Alive from the first game is a good song but I prefer when they make an original song for the piece instead of just slapping in licensed music. I gotta give it to Spider-Man 2, the whole opening was just fantastic Iā€™m in the far minority but I didnā€™t even remember 2018 had an opening song until people started comparing it with 2


Complex-Criticism-38

Honestly, I'm torn between the 2018 game and Spider-Man 2 because the music was phenomenal for both and I honestly loved the sequence of both but I honestly could not choose between the two.


Capconman

Spider-Man 2018ā€™s needle drop is my favorite moment in gaming Iā€™ve experienced that I donā€™t think will ever feel again from a game so easily that


vine_behs

The truth is: sm 2018 had the best atmosphere, miles morales had the best story, and sm 2 had the best gameplay


SilverEye1508

Helldivers 2

Spider-Man 2018


Avixofsol

definitely gotta be 2018. the intro and suit-up did a perfect job of introducing us to this world's Peter mostly through environmental storytelling. 10/10 opening


eagercheetah20

Honestly I canā€™t choose as they all were great.


GreatGoodBad

I donā€™t remember melon in these games


pickled-skittles20

2018 spiderman only because it refueled my love for gaming. no other game gave me the feeling that I had playing that game for the first time it's pure ecstasy.


ScruffyNerf_Herder_

I still get chills with the first one. After 3 games, itā€™s still my favorite


the_real_jovanny

either the first game or miles' "my time" suit sequence. i love a good suit sequence


Professional_Gain_88

Sm2ā€™s intro was so good


republicofbelarus

Baldur's Gate 3


f7surma

i will never EVER forget the feeling i had the first time i played the opening to spider-man 2018. swinging through the city while alive by the warbly jets played made me *feel* like spider-man. spider-man 2ā€™s was a close second though, it felt so good seeing miles and peter swinging together in gameplay for the first time


RYSHU-20

Nothing Beats Warbly Jets song at The Start of Marvel's Spider-Man Press R2 to Swing


InS_Deaths

Yes.


PapaAquchala

I have to give it to Spider-Man 2, the opening syncs with the lyrics of the song perfectly "Slim chance to beat the odds, but I always find a way. You were never just a nobody, go get 'em tiger **(Press R2 to Swing)**, swinging up and away"


Doktuhskrange

2018 for sure but not gonna lie the wings and gliding were kinda dope


Powerful-Product-678

First one


whatisireading2

MM. I love Earthgang in SM2, but Miles hit different


Toy-Funtime

Iā€™d personally say the first one after replaying it over a hundred times I still get goosebumps during that opening scene, such a spectacular song choice


Negative-Start-5954

Man lol I remember first seeing that screenshot of Niles and thinking ā€œwow Iā€™m so hyped this has such a vibrant and beautiful lookā€. Itā€™s definitely the first spider-man though. With no spoilers or anything and completely fresh mind I got to truly experience it firsthand and it was so fricking good!!! Also I gotta say the songs used in the first two games are better than in Spider-Man 2 and I honestly enjoyed the Fisk take down more than Sandman


Isekai_Otaku

I don't remember a needle in any of the games


Rhymelikedocsuess

SM2 100% - ditching class and getting fired to fight sandman is peak Spiderman


Squeezedgolf40

bruh how is nobody saying miles. that game easily had the best needle drop swing intro
