The best PS5 deals are continuing at Walmart with two different PS5 bundles available for $499 reduced from $559. The two options include being able to buy Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 with the original PlayStation 5 disc console or you can buy the latest PlayStation 5 Slim disc console with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III. As there are different games involved as well as different revisions of the console, these are two very different choices. We’ve taken the time to look at the differences and work out what’s best for…

Spider-Man versus Lovecraftian horror is more likely than you think – Destructoid

While the Spider-Man movies might just now be dipping their toes into the multiverse, it’s a concept that’s been long established in the comics and shows for over 30 years now. As such, you can imagine all the pure weirdness the webhead has been involved in. Marvel, compared to the other titan of the comics industry, DC, likes to dabble in the bizarre. With Santa Claus himself being an omega-level mutant, it can’t be that shocking that old gods like Dagon also share space among the various universes. However, it’s…

Insomniac Games’ Mike Fitzgerald on Spider-Man 2, Collaborating With Marvel, and the Studio’s Ambitions

Insomniac Games has had busy couple of decades. The American developer has been making beloved video games since 1994 — the hands and minds behind early PlayStation classics like Spyro the Dragon and Ratchet & Clank — but past few years have seen the studio take on a different beast altogether. It started with 2018's Marvel's Spider-Man, a Game of the Year nominee that brought back the iconic web-crawling superhero into the gaming spotlight. Outside of its legacy in comic books and films, Spider-Man is a video gaming…

Spider-Man 2 Gameplay Details Open-World Experience With Fast Travel, Teases Over 65 Suits

Spider-Man 2 just got a new gameplay trailer at the PlayStation State of Play event, held late Thursday, dropping new details about its exploration, side quests, and new tech. Game director Bryan Intihar kicked things off by comparing its open-world experience to the 2018 prequel, noting how the map has nearly doubled in size, expanding past the East River to include the Queens and Brooklyn boroughs. To compensate for the distance, both Spider-Men — Peter Parker and Miles Morales — are equipped with deployable Web Wings…

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Preview: Insomniac Games’ Spidey Sequel Aims to Swing to New Heights

It's perhaps difficult to grasp — especially for younger fans — how vibrant the legacy of Spider-Man, the world's favourite web-crawler, is in video games. Over the years, we've come to know Spider-Man from his many incarnations in animated TV shows, films, and comic books. Sam Raimi's take on the character propelled it to new heights of popularity. More recently, Spider-Man films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Sony Pictures' Miles Morales animated features have established their own identity. But the web-swinging,…

Spider-Man 2, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, and More: New Games on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X in October

October is here and the month brings a non-stop train of game releases. It is perhaps the busiest month in gaming this year, with major titles fighting for space in the tight window of four weeks. Kicking off things on October 5 is Assassin's Creed Mirage, Ubisoft's next chapter in the long-running assassin's saga. This time, the game opts to shrink its scope and return to its roots with a more stealth and assassinations-based approach. The last three AC titles had adhered to a Witcher 3-style expansive RPG style, drawing…

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 All You Need to Know: Release Date, Story, Download Size, Review Embargo, and More

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 — out this Friday on PS5 — is easily one of our most anticipated titles of the year, building upon Insomniac Games' original blockbuster tale to weave a new line for our spandex-wearing web crawlers. Yep, true to the name, this time we get to play as both Peter Parker and Miles Morales, as they team up to neutralise various new threats to New York City, which include the monstrous symbiote Venom and the beast-like Kraven the Hunter. In addition to refining web-swinging and chained flowy combat — a…

Spider-Man 2 Will Add New Game Plus Mode Later This Year, Insomniac Confirms

Spider-Man 2 will receive a New Game+ mode as part of a post-launch update, later this year. As per Insomniac Games Community Director James Stevenson, just like the 2018's Marvel's Spider-Man, those looking to replay the title and mop up all the side quests might have to wait a bit, though for now, simply beating it once grants access to an ‘Ultimate' difficulty setting for a fresh playthrough. For the uninitiated, a New Game + mode generally allows players to plunge back into a game's campaign in an overpowered state,…

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Review: Insomniac Games’ Ambitious Sequel Swings for the Fences

What makes a good Spider-Man story? Aside from capturing the mythology of the quippy, affable, web-swinging hero, it also must present great adversity for him, and not just when he's wearing the mask. It cannot be a Spider-Man story without Peter Parker. Unlike other superheroes who can wear a cowl and leave their identity behind, the two are inseparable. Spider-Man swings into a fight, but it's Peter who takes the punch. It must also ground Spider-Man in the fragility of human experience. The wall-crawler is strong, but…
