Super curious to learn what Era thinks of Insomniac's Spidey suit after its original, divisive unveiling at E3 2016.

It looks alright. I get what they were trying to go for with the whole sports gear look but it looks kinda weird in some places. I'm not a fan of the soles and knuckles being white. It definitely does stand out among the OC donut steel suits, though.

Gunna be honest, saw "dust settled" and "insonniac suit" and thought there was some controversy I'd missed.

It's fine! I think the suit could use more white, but the actual design of the chest spider could be improved.

Honestly my favourite suit next to Miles Morales. I think it looks awesome. Looks sporty and functional. Loved seeing it cameo in into the spider-verse.

I think it looks fine. It does stand out a bit from the other traditional Spider-Man outfits so props to them on that. That being said, I do like some of other traditional outfits a bit more, like the Raimi one

It's alright, but Peter's normal design is so perfect that any change is kind of unnecessary and less good.

I like it. I liked it from the very first showing. It was my most used suit, alongside the one from Homecoming.

The red is far too washed out for my liking, it needs to be a deeper, darker shade of red. Notice my avatar is saturated for that very reason. The Homecoming suit's red combined with the design of this suit would be one of my favorite Spidey suits of all time.

My least used suit in the game. It's not bad, it's not great, it's just okay and there's better options to choose from.

It's definitely not the worst. I used other costumes more often, but just because they were my favorites growing up.

It's my favorite Spider-Man suit of all time. It's not my favorite version of Spider-Man but I don't think you can beat the suit. I think it's incredible and the white features are striking, unique, and super classy.

Meh. I didn't use it much. I really liked the Vintage Comic Book suit. I used that for the rest of the game once I unlocked it.

Probably my favorite suit in the game, and one of the ones I rocked throughout my entire (Platinum Trophy) playthrough alongside Scarlet Spider and Homecoming.

I thought it was great, after the novelty of trying different suits in the game it was what I went with once I had finished the story.

It's pretty cool, but once I saw how rediculously good the Homecoming suit looked, I used for the rest of the game.

I love it. I also love that they provided a billion other suits, mostly free of charge. You rule, Insomniac.

I'm also still convinced that they're playing the long game with the white parts. Which other suit/character has a white spider on their chest, and, more inexplicably, white rectangles on the backs of their hands?

Beautiful game with fun traversal but embarrassingly outdated missions design.

Misread the title somewhat.

Didn't like it and always used the alternative costumes. It looks bland and the white spider ruins the look.

I like it because
it provides an in-universe reason for why the symbiote will have the white spider, unlike other interpretations of that suit where the black spider is just there because that's what it looked like in the comics

I still use the alt costumes though. Especially now that Future Foundation has been patched in.

It's not too bad, the red and blue I think might too faded for me personally. The red looks almost orange sometimes for example. I like the colors bold and the blue a little darker but that's just me.

the side missions are terrible. Challenges are fun and entertaining and the gameplay is still amazing.

But seriously though, those side missions.............gross

edit: omg costume design lol, its fine........but once i started unlocking the extra ones i was easily switching. I like the black cat one

It took some getting used to when I first saw it in the trailer.

Its really good. One of the best spider-man design ever. Anytime you see the white logo, you instantly think of the game. Very iconic.

They made a suit that is distinctly Spider-man and distinctly their own Spider-man that is instantly recognizable. That's a pretty good achievement.

My favorite Spidey design by a large margin. Looked great in the game, but the way it looks in art and comics make it ten times better.

Honestly found myself returning to it instead of the classic suit far more often than not. I'd play around with some of the alternative suits and switch back to it after a few missions. It looks great in motion IMO.

I'm not sure I like those white accents. They stand out and draw the focus too much, especially the chest-emblem. It gives the colour-scheme a American-flag vibe. I don't enough about the character to know if a patriotism angle is intentional or fitting though.

Looking at Spider Man pictures on Google, makes me think the simpler designs might be more effective. It directs your eyes to the face and weird poses. You kind of lose that with the spread out white bits.

I just used the Iron Spider from Infinity War as soon as I got it and never looked back.

I wouldn't want it to be the default look for Spider-Man but I liked it in the game. The only thing that bugged me is that the soles stayed white, anybody that's ever owned a white pair of running shoes knows that lasts all of ten seconds outside.
