Some Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 fans have started pointing out that Peter Parker is missing as an AI companion in combat when the player is controlling Miles Morales. Spider-Man 2 gives gamers two crime-fighting Spider-heroes for the price of one, with Peter returning from the first game and Miles now a fully-fledged web-slinger following his starring role in the 2020 spin-off Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
While Spider-Man 2 doesn’t offer any kind of co-op multiplayer gameplay, it does allow the two Spideys to team up on occasion to take down the criminals of New York City. During certain story missions and free-roaming combat sections, players will sometimes bump into the Spider-Man that they aren’t controlling, who will assist them as an AI companion in battle. This isn’t limited to just Peter or Miles either, as Peter’s former police ally Yuriko Watanabe will sometimes show up to help under her vigilante persona Wraith.
At least, that’s how it’s supposed to be, as a Reddit user by the handle of EamoM2oo4 recently noticed that while Miles is more than happy to lend a hand to Peter in Spider-Man 2, the older web-swinger doesn’t seem to return the favor. In a humorous meme posted to r/SpidermanPS4, they point out that they never encountered Peter as an AI companion in combat while playing as Miles, something that other users find to be odd considering how much he considers Miles to be a partner and protege in Spider-Man 2’s story.
However, another Reddit user makes a clear distinction regarding Peter not appearing as an AI helper in Spider-Man 2. While he might not show up during free-roaming combat, he does swing around in a non-scripted manner during certain story missions. This includes Spider-Man 2’s gripping opening battle against the Sandman, a brief section where Miles has to escort a rattled J Jonah Jameson to the hospital, and the chapter where the two Spider-Men are chasing Kraven the Hunter’s Convoy vessels as they relentlessly pursue the Lizard across the East River.
Yet another Reddit user offered a charitable explanation as to why these are the only times Peter can be seen as an AI companion in Spider-Man 2: Peter has so much faith in Miles’s abilities as a superhero that he doesn’t see the need to help him, only dropping in to help him when the player is in control of the former. This would tie in with Peter taking a break from wall-crawling at the end of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, with Miles stepping into the role of primary web-slinger in the Insomniac universe for the time being.

One of the most underrated features of PlayStation Plus Premium is the game trials that it offers. Although Sony does not put its AAA games on the service the day they release, it and several other third-party publishers offer up free demos that essentially give players full access to the game for a limited period of time. It’s a great way to test a new game before you buy and it also gives you an excuse to try out a variety of different games this weekend without making the time commitment to beat them all. I looked through the full list of game trials that PlayStation Plus Premium offers and pinpointed three of the demos that are most worth your time.
Cameos: They’re not just videos that actors do in their living rooms for money!

The latest update for V Rising introduced a number of quality of life features, but the ability to craft from storage was not one of them, despite players' pleas to add it.

With multiple types of resources and storage containers, players were hopeful that it'd be added in V Rising's full launch update.
I've been wishing I could be Spider-Man for as long as I can remember, but the closest I've come to replicating that fictional feeling is by swinging around New York as the web-slinger in Insomniac's Spidey games. The idea of actually being able to fire webs from my wrists was an unattainable goal since, well, radioactive spiders aren't a thing, and if they were, being bitten by one probably wouldn't result in the development of superpowers. Kids today won't need to rely on that impossibility as Hasbro has created real-life Web Blasters, no radioactive spider bite needed.
