We've talked about it; no dedicated thread though.
Pre-load is up (release is 8/12) and keys are available from Green Man Gaming.
So far the reviews I've read are saying it's a solid, fun experience. A bit dated (the references), but on PC it looks absolutely beautiful. There were some reviewers saying optimization needed another pass and I'm hoping there's a patch tomorrow. I've already updated my video drivers, so all that remains is the waiting (the hardest part).
I'm pretty excited to play and glad to keep supporting more former console exclusives coming to PC.
I was able to get a couple of hours in, and I've pleased so far. Performance is good and webslinging around the city is really fun once you get the hang of it. I never played the Playstation version so this is all new to me. I figured I would have to use a controller but thankfully mouse and keyboard work really well.
Yeah, I have a little over two myself now and no experience with the PS version prior to playing. Really, really enjoying it - tone, controls, open world, etc...
It's reminding me a tiny, tiny bit of Crackdown on the Xbox360 probably because of the giant city and I'm just running around now collecting things, activating towers and stopping random crime events.
I played through the PS version and completed everything in the game...enjoyed every minute and would have played more if I had anything left to do. Really great game!

Ditto. I played through this game twice on the Playstation. It's really fun with a great story.
play for few hours so far it is feel very same same open world as others. may be because i just finish Horizen ZD n GOW 2018 not long ago. but the melee seem better than H:ZD. Running not bad on lowend spec. i should put it in backlog for another day when the openworld itch come up.
This game is so good. Web-slinging through the city is somehow relaxing - the nailed the movements perfectly. I'm still not the greatest at combat, but I'm having a blast - the side missions and random tasks in particular. Main story? Meh. But running around and just doing *stuff* as Spider-Man? The best.
The main reason Sony put Spider-Man on PC was to make money. However, the main reason PC gamers were so excited about it—apart from the fact it remains very good!—was because it would let them mod a PlayStation game to hell and back.
We’ve written a story about the game’s mods already, but the last one was a bummer, so today we’re here for something a bit more light-hearted: a mod that turns the in-game model of Spider-Man into Kermit the Frog.
That’s it. That’s the mod.

Finished the core game a few days ago and just finished the first DLC (of three). Immediately jumped into the second DLC and it's like I'm playing a new game - the DLC difficulty is off the charts. I verified my game didn't get reset to ultra (it was on normal) and after doing some quick searches it would seem I'm not the only one that noticed the insane ramp up in difficulty. That's unfortunate as I'm not sure I'll finish the game now. Was having a blast but this has taken it down a few pegs.
EDIT: Ok, lowering it to the lowest difficulty level has made it much better, but man...what an adjustment.

I've hit a bug in the Vulture/Rhino fight that keeps crashing me out, sadly. I'm hoping to retry once I can finally get my new computer built.
