Times certainly are hard right now with the world being on fire and all, thus making it even harder to find things to be happy about. But among the chaos and angst, and if you look hard enough, you’ll always find something that restores your faith in humanity again. Video games are one of life’s simple pleasures. To be able to take some time out from the world around you, even if only for a short time, can make all the difference and in the process produce some incredible moments. To prove this point, a video clip went viral on Twitter over the weekend showing a kid playingMarvelâs Spider-Manfor the very first time and it’s clear that he’s having the time of his life.
The young kid in question is called Ryan and his sheer enjoyment and smile while playingSpider-Man PS4would brighten up even your worst day. In the clip taken by his dad “HollowPoiint” who is also aYouTuberand uploads lots ofCall of Dutyvideos, funny moments, and tips and tricks, we see Ryan sitting in front of a big screen living his best life whilst swinging  Peter Parker through the narrow streets of New York City. To be perfectly honest, this too was my exact facial expression and happiness when I was playingSpider-Man PS4with a few “Woooohoooo’s” and “Weeeeee’s” thrown in, too. Hey, you’re never too old to act like a big kid.
The viral video even caught the attention of Bryan Intihar who is the creative director at Insomniac Games and who also directedSpider-Man PS4. Bryan retweeted HollowPoiint’s tweet by saying “If you ever wonder why we do this, just look at the smile on his face. Just awesome.”
