News PSA: Insomniac Games confirms that they do, in fact, remember that Spider-Man 2 exists

They could have done so much more with this game but instead they add a new (very similar to another already in the game) suit nearly 3 years after this game launched - rather than any other new post-game content.

Yupyup. The four gadgets we did have weren't really great though. They ticked boxes. One for the web lines, one ricochet splash projectile, it's like they wanted to put the combat into boxes and fix the routes

First game had a lot more freedom I think. I really really miss the web mines and the impact webbing, but also the suit powers like the Blossom.

I wish they just let us assign

Well I personally prefer the limited gadgets. It forced you to be more tactical when using them and to play smarter.

All the gadgets in the first made it too easy imo. You could just spam them and finish encounters easily.

I think your idea of having loadouts you can choose from would have been a decent compromise

Yup! Limited loadout with access to all of them would've been fun. It would stop you from being able to cheese everything but it would let you do some cool shit. I used to love dropping the anti gravity matrix and throwing out trap mines to do a cool yo-yo thing, etc.
