It’s become something of a tradition to welcome new games by creating memes about them. Spider-Man: Miles Morales is no exception, as fans have already put together a multitude of hilarious memes as a way to hype up the title’s release.
The anticipation truly is at its peak, mainly due to the game being a launch title for the PlayStation 5. Positivity is brimming within the fanbase, as a majority expect Miles Morales to knock it out of the park just like its predecessor did. To get in the spirit of things, fans should check out these memes as they certainly do get one hyped for the release date.
10 It's Not That Easy, Miles
Quite a few side missions needed to be completed in Spider-Man PS4 before one could unlock some of the game's coolest suits. This is why Peter must be feeling so miffed with Miles in this meme, as the young guy seems to expect he'll simply be handed a suit.
Even funnier is how the quote used here is from the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man film series. Of course, this is due to the character wearing Tobey’s variant of the suit in the picture. Regardless, Miles won’t be getting any suits that easily for sure.
9 Who's The Imposter?
People argue that Spider-Man 2 remains better than Spider-Man PS4 to this day. This meme is generally used to bring that debate up, although this time a different interpretation is present. The argument here is that Miles and Peter will now be quarreling over who the real Spider-Man is.
This certainly holds true for casual fans who only see Peter Parker as Spider-Man. Some comic book fans like to claim that Miles is the better version of the superhero. To this end, even the two opposing fanbases are represented pretty well here!
8 Instantly The Best
Since Spider-Man: Miles Morales will also be available for the PlayStation 5, many already consider it among the best games in the series. There’s no real justification for this claim, although this meme is the closest you’ll come to the mentality behind these fans.
The idea is that they’re having a fanboy moment as J.J.J. had in Spider-Man 2 after finding the hero’s suit. The meme has gone so far as to include the PS5 Dualsense controller to highlight the point.
7 Diabolical Miles
Spider-Man: Miles Morales certainly has a lot of mistakes to fix from Spider-Man PS4. Some have joked that this funny picture is meant to illustrate how Miles is learning from Peter’s mistakes. However, here’s a more diabolical take on Miles.
The meme argues that Miles is only pretending to be the cute little side hero until he can fully usurp Peter’s position as the main Spider-Man. It’s kind of true as well, seeing as Miles was the star of the Oscar-winning movie and might just have the better game as well.
6 You Know It's Coming
Sure, Spider-Man PS4 was a fun game to play. And yet, there’s no doubt that the superhero himself was relatively weak. This is even truer when compared with other versions fans have seen. With that taken into account, it’s no wonder Miles has this solemn expression.
After all, it means that he’ll be the one to have his powers nerfed. Considering he’s going to be portrayed as an up-and-coming superhero, there’s no doubt Insomniac will make him out to be weak, at least in the initial phase of the game.
5 Oldie But Goldie
Every Spider-Man fan has fallen into the confusion between distinguishing Miles from Peter. This comes down to their identical suits, meaning fans are left unsure which person is behind the mask. This was a bigger problem a few years ago when Miles was a fresh character.
The meme showing an argument between Captain America and Iron Man is appropriate, as fans at the time would generally argue if they had correctly deduced the identity of a particular Spider-Man. Since they’re from the same fanbase, it does qualify for a civil war.
4 Too Much Awesome
The many memes about the PlayStation 5 can include this one on the list as well. Fans expected another Spider-Man game down the line, but most didn’t foresee a title to be released during launch, much less that Miles would be the protagonist.
This means that there will be another Spider-Man game starring Peter Parker as well, making Miles Morales the starting point for a whole lot of awesome to come. The character was a hit in the previous game, and the hype is very much on for him to deliver in his solo feature.
3 Too Hot To Handle
While it might not have been one of the best sandbox games ever made, Spider-Man PS4’s open-world was definitely a huge selling point. Many gamers have touted that aspect as the deciding factor for their purchase. Xbox’s Halo Infinite will only partially deliver here due to being a first-person shooter.
Now with Spider-Man: Miles Morales confirmed as a launch title for the PS5, gamers are convinced this is the way to go. With Halo Infinite expected sometime in 2021, there are a lot of wandering eyes traveling over to Miles Morales.
2 Did That Just Happen?
Since many weren’t expecting an announcement for Spider-Man: Miles Morales, let alone a trailer, fans were blown away with what they saw. Sony delivered on the promise of a cool game, and it was clear from the trailer that the company wasn’t lying.
The diehard fans were left speechless with what was on display. This was in a good way, of course, although those blank expressions would make one wonder if they got the shock of their lives. It goes to show the power of the Spider-Man franchise, as well as the performance potential of the PS5.
1 You're Doing It Wrong, Miles
Shocker didn’t rank too high in the list of best villains for Spider-Man PS4. Mainly, it’s because he’s never been one of Spidey’s main enemies. However, Miles seems to have taken a real liking to the villain in this meme.
The game’s trailer showed Miles displaying new abilities of his suit, and this one had him channel his inner Shocker. The person behind this meme claims that Miles might have gone overboard with all the motivational speeches Peter gave him, to the point where he thinks he’s become the next Shocker.
