A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I'm still waiting for Elden Ring to go on sale for $20 but might end up settling for $30.

The first spider man game. I wont pay more than 20 bucks no matter how good people will say it is.

I got lucky with that one. My kid bought a PS4 (and has since bought a PS5) and both Spider-Man games, so I didn't end up having to pay anything to play them.

Just came back from a cruise and played it.

It's a good game, but definitely gets repetitive after a while.

Spiderman is ridiculously under powered. He's fighting regular henchmen and it takes FOREVER to get them down... IE one of them shoots a rocker launcher, you catch the rocker and yeet it directly back into the fucker... Aaaaaand he just stands back up......

There are also segments where you are MJ and miles which are pure stealth and just boring as shit.

Overall 8/10 it's fun, but certainly not the greatest game ever. I'd still put the Batman games above this for sure.
