I’ve never played Spider-Man 2 but the web slinging felt great to me. You can either hold R2 to swing around automatically or press R2 to shoot webs more manually, and both ways are quite fun. Read more

A couple of little things that I’m sure will be fixed, like an occasional split-second lag when you press the jump button, or the inability to see your quest progress from your menu (you’d have to go all the way back to the village to keep track of them). Read more

Yeah I’ve also heard people who know the game make comparisons to Ark, fwiw. Read more

We do our best to just treat them like we would any other publisher. Any time I’m going to run a report like this, I’ll always ask the relevant parties for comment. Sure, Bethesda hasn’t responded in nearly five years, but that doesn’t mean we’re gonna stop asking. Let the onus be on them. Read more
